Well, now that I have decided that I will be going to ISB, I thought I might start some preparation for my MBA course. People have told me that it is a very hectic course, so some preparation might be in order.

To that effect, I went and bought a couple of books, a scientific calculator and started working out problems from “Options, Futures and Other Derivatives” by John Hull. I then organized a study group of all the Bangalore people who are also going to ISB this year, and started working on Business Plans for the Entrepreneurship course at ISB.

ROTFL.

I bet I had some of you fooled there. For those of you who have known me for a while, you might have realized its a joke as soon as you read the word “preparation”.

But it is true: I have been preparing for life in  Hyderabad, but differently than you might imagine.

I first researched all the places in Hyderabad where the famous Hyderabadi Biryani is available. There are lots and lots of places where the good stuff is available. I also discovered that the awesome ‘Pheni’ (which is a sweet) is also available everywhere in Hyderabad.

I also found out where the IPL matches will be held (home of the Deccan Chargers!) and what the likely schedule is. I hope I get to go to a few matches!
