The human mind is always wandering through everything that it can experience around. At certain points in time, one does feel that this is what it actually wanted but the same existing possession seems to be so shallow and in vain. I guess this is a common phenomenon that must have been experienced by many people. I believe that the reason for this is that, every need the mind wants is circumstantial and we do not live in a static world, the circumstances change over time, its dynamic in nature. As a natural inference, so does relationships with people, in terms of physical proximity, mental frequency and degree of association. I'm sure the realization of this is not a very pleasant one, however practical or mature we might be. I also feel that the individuals involved also want to get everything back to the state as it used to be before, but the circumstances and priorities probably hamper this possibility.
Why do circumstances change? I guess its because of the change in one's priorities, preferences, needs, desires, possibilities and obligations of the physical and emotional state. The outcome of the culmination of the complex variables is always enigmatic in nature, and that's the reason that the human psyche is one of the most researched and less understood theories of the modern world.
This is the most vague thing I have ever written, however I don't seem to have the clarity to make it more simplistic.
Life is a pursuit in vain to un-mix the mixed blessing.

The Long Pause
Its been really long since I blogged last... Thats mainly due to the engrossing life I have had so far at AIM and I have been keeping busy with many other things that I find more interesting than blogging.
Just as an Update, I am 4 months away from becoming the young MBA graduate that I started dreaming about some 3 years back. I went to Jakarta for my Action Consultancy with John Clements Consultants, Inc. (An HR Consulting firm) for a tenure of 2 weeks during June 2009. I would definitely share that experience in detail in one of the subsequent blogs.
Prior to that, I underwent the harsh part of the MBA before the more comfortable and convenient latter half of the MBA experience. However, retrospectively I really feel good about it, irrespective of the fact I was academically dissatisfied with my performance.
Coming back to better things in life, I have had two wonderful holidays... First, to the blissful El Nido in the Palawan Islands of the Philippines. Second, to the serene beach in Bataan (some 7 hours drive from Makati) with the company of people whom I love the most here and this vacation remains very very close to my heart. I promise to circumstantiate both these experiences soon in this blog.
MBA so far has been a true learning experience with respect to Academics, Work, Life, etc. and the art of balancing all of it.
I was not feeling very good about not blogging for so long, since I am an expressive person intrinsically. So, the intention of this post is to resume and bridge the long pause between then and now! :-)

Recruiter's Night @ AIM
During the last week, I had an opportunity to visit the Recruiter's Night organised by the Career Management Services (CMS) at AIM. The event was primarily intended to be a common platform for the confluence of the Graduating Batch students and their potential employers.
The event took place on the 3rd of September at the AIM Conference Centre in Makati City. The ambience of the occasion was eye catching especially due the formal attire of the students (A rare sight at AIM!!)
The function kicked off with a formal overview of the graduating MBA and MM class of 2008 by the representatives of each of the courses. The overview comprised of a general picture of the functional background of the students along with the diversity among each of them. It is worth mentioning that there is an amazing diversity associated with each batch at AIM. This was followed by an encouraging talk by the Associate Dean of the W.SyCip Graduate School of Business, Prof. Ricky Lim to motivate the potential employers to look for the right match. It was great to have learnt the significance of a relationship between an employer and the employee.
The presence of many of reputed companies present like QTEL from Qatar, First Gulf Bank from Abu Dhabi, Ayala Group-Philippines, IBM- Philippines, Pfizer- Philippines, JP Morgan- Philippines, L&T, RCBC Bank, Telus- Philippines ensured that the purpose of the interaction between the companies and the students had been justifiably served. This was followed by dinner and rounds of cocktails, which hopefully proved out to be the opportune moment for the students to network. (And drink off course!)
My sole intention is to give a credible account of event to a larger set of audience and hope to spread the word. I was lucky to have a group of my batch mates along with me on the day to cover the event and also, thank Regnard for providing us with the opportunity of being an amateur (read novice) journalist :-)
I am attaching some pictures taken on that day and also take this opportunity to wish my seniors a very best in all their future endeavours.
