Anti: Snapshots from hell

This was the name of a book I read long back, tht comments about life of a mediocre at Harvard B-school.Just like that, it is true that b-school life calls for endurance,hard work,night-outs ...a complete burn-out..stil these are the most wunderful years of smone's life...though Exceptions are always there.there are people who are always cribbing, who make mountains outta mole-hills...for sm ppl things dont seem to take the right course.still they are in a minority and who cares about mediocres anyways.. :(...Most of the people ,on being asked say" those were the best days of my life"!! and for some ppl life at B-school "nothing but snapshots from hell" they narrate each incident with imbibed pessimism..Not to blame them as ----"when a thing is expected to go wrong it will and at the wrong time"-murphy's law...applicable to few ppl...

FOr them life seems mundane, just like a wild - goose- chase...MBA does not add-value to their lives...for reasons unknown, for fault that is not theirs..but most of them, most of the parts work out well and each piece when fitted together form a beautiful snapshot that is not from hell.this might seem to the other lot as looking at the world as if wearing rose-colored glasses!!but for some ppl,infact most of th successful ones....B-school is a turnaround in their lives...they r on the threshold of a beautiful career ahead...for smone it is ofcourse the other way round....let us identify sm of these ppl....these are ppl like XX, who have been doing exceptionally well thruout their lives...never tasted failure...abd whn they start facing it here, they are heart-broken..frustration seems to build up.....affecting future performance....pulling them down each wring of the ladder....going down!!! these ppl are not cowards, just tht they have no inspiration to muster their srength to meet the impending challenges of the tuff b-school life....no body seems to understand them....since they cant get along well with their lives..they are termed LOSERS!! born losers....and mind it they are the ppl, who were at times the best performers in their groups....but wht happens whn things go wrong..they become losers, jerks..oh!! what fate!!
for smone getting thru b-school becomes fait accompli for the rest it is just another 2 years..but if u dont pass out of a b-school being a better person, a better orator, a better communicator...ur education is waste!!!a wate of time n money!!!
