Crusade... its over now.. awaiting next season

"suna hai is mein 2.5lakh aadmi baithata 600 seats ke liye" ...


place - Ahmedabad


time - 8.45am


date - 18th Nov 2007


curious person - Autowallah rendering morning services to all CAT aspirants...





I smirk .. i smile back ... trying to explain "nahi yaar yeh to sirf shuruat hai" ... hunting season has just begin, these 600 seats are just the elusive black bucks ... there are easier things to hunt for and they are yet to come...





well the HA College of Commerce, Law Garden gates show up.. and i get down to greet my 3rd CAT centre.. (other two in Mumbai and Calicut) ... for first time i realise CAT is the only exam there aren't any last many preparations, last minute notes lookup, last minute revision .. because they are of no use at all.. because 70% of the crowd is just there to check out.. you know we check out new burger in McDonalds ... :)





... and so how do u set off the action ... u say actors, lights, camera and action!!... so TV18 shows with Camera and anchor to say those words... gates open up ... students start moving in and ... Camera is there to capture the event glorified to extent of hmmm.. 'soldiers sailing away to battlefield' ... a hyperbole?? may be .. may be not... u decide... just remember i said glorified to, not that it is...





... 2.5hrs have gone past and i come out... bewildered at my own blunders ... unsettled by everything around... so you are out now... past has gone past... and you find being targetted by high optical zoom cameras mounted with their owners at the gates... they target to capture the emotions which are nothing but confused....
