Hey Koushik,

With the change of the caption from "This is a temperoray Post" to "Although I thought I would make this is a temporary post. I'm not too sure..."
my transition from the quandary of comment karen.. yaah naa karen.. to actually congratulating you for a fantastic achievement was swift !!

Okay okay.. before i get confused myself and forget what I wanted to tell, Let me express my heartfelt Congratulations for your outstanding achievement !! Dekho Koushik, all of our clairvoyance was not wrong ;-)

Keep rocking !! All the Best.

Congratulations buddy....u did it!!

So..which one's it's gonna be??
R u gonna go for A or the good ol' bong in you is having fleeting thoughts about C ??

U know...all of us who have been reading yr posts all along....kinda became a part of yr journey...in a metaphysical way.. :)
And it was like a movie (or a book for tht matter)...watchin' it from the begining to the end....full of emotion, drama n tragedy of course...bollywood ishtyle... :) :)
And it feels nice to see a happy ending (a la 'And they lived happily ever after' ) :)

And...as it happens with every blockbuster....ppl are left wanting for more...and inevitably the sequel (or a prequel ?? ) comes out to quench our insatiable thirst...
In this case....the only question is when ?? :)

Congrats again dude...n best of luck!!

AJB said...

Congrats, Kaushik!

...was following your 'encounters' in this blog over the last few months, and a result like this was only in due order, I guess..... :-)

ATB for b-skooling and everything to do with it, and yeah, thanks for some elaborate but hilarious posts to read! :-)

My pick would have to be the XL bloodbath...my apologies, but that one was as funny as it gets! :-D

Congrats again!

Kaushik said...

Shyam-boy !!! Thanks a ton, man - next up - it's your turn to gimme the good news !!! [;)]

Sudeep - you've seen me through it. I'll spare the words... !XOBILE !!!!

Archana - you oughtto take up fortune-telling as a part-tie profession... not only do you predict good news, you're pretty damned accurate, you know !!! [:D]

Oka - why.... you blasted WIMWI Tucchha of mine !!!

Sanksriti - [:D] Thanks a ton !!! No typos in this small a post, I hope !

Kaushik said...

Anony-1 : Honestly, it's more than joy - it's a moment when you know that you are worth every ounec of self-belief that carried you through the times when everybody else was ready to write you off [:)]

Kalyan - Dude, you're amazing, and you know why. Thanks for egging me on. I'll be a nice senior, I promise !

Anony-2 : Thanks a ton - big one ? Now.. I'm clueless - could it get bigger ? [:D]

Eka - most of all, thanks for believing in me !!! Keep in touch, man.

Raghu - yes, it wasn't wrong.. and if mine's to be believed, you're gonna put up one helluva fight when you're on the hot seat.

Kaushik said...

Anuj - Bumps to both of us, I say ! Thanks, man...

Jaggu - hic! and I raised the toasted over here [:D] Thnx man.. 'A' is what it's gonna be - first letter. first choice. About CAT prep - dude, don't let the reservation thing distract you... one of my article's on CAT prep is gonna be published in our univ. alumni mag - I'll probably fwd it to you once it's published.

Shrutz - oh no ! you were supposed to do the proxy-fill-in thing for me !!! [:o]

Maverick - well, if anything - I myself grew pretty attached to the regular visitors and their comments - much like the kick-ass one you posted. It's gotto be 'A' - can't afford to let it go [:D] Sequel.. ummm - no idea,man - do keep in touch... you'll know for sure.

Apu - my oldest roomie !!! thanx a ton, dude - had you been here, we'd been rolling stoned by now for sure.. LOL !!!

Kaushik said...

Jonas - I don't blame you one bit ! Had I not been the one facing the music - I'd have been rolling over the floor laughing my ass off. But thanks for the wonderful comment - keep in touch.

Prian - Impossible is a dare - an opportunity - a dream - and a future where I rag you as a senior [:D] Get here, dude - you deserve every bit of it.

Chitra - Ummmm.. yes, I would say I'm quite satisfied [:))]

a pg regular - Thanks, seriously ! [:)]

Anony-3 : Fellow IIM-A, we got a party of a different kind facing us once we land up there... [:D] Cheers to that !

Kaushik said...

Bonfire - trust me a 93.13 is not bad for a first attempt, and as long as you got the fire burning inside you, you'll join me. Maktub.

Priya - hey, thanks a ton for following these crazy ramblings of mine. Thing is - I've recently penned an article for my University alumni's mag - is it okay if I fwd you the link once it's published - it'll be out in May.

Anshuman - trust me, every second of those details flash before my eyes as if they were just yesterday. Treat's due of course ! [:D]

Madhu - hey... what a surprise ! [:)] Yes..thanks a ton. We should catch up sometime.. hope ething's going as well as it should, if not better.

Rahman said...

It wasn't a surprise as it was expected :)

Anonymous said...

Kaushik said...

@1.618 - Nazeem.. thanks a ton, man. Well - it was different seeing it in print and confirmed - huuge relief [:)]

@Sanskriti - Damn! I knew I should have stuck to "Kriti" [:D] Or am I liable to be prosecuted for that as well..btw - my tongue's still tied after I tried pronouncing that !

Gul said...

Hmmm... Archana told me about your blog sometime back and I got a breather after months to take a look. If you din't know, there are tons of people talking about your blog and after reading teh initial lines - no wonder!

U completely deserve the admits to IIM and we deserve a treat!! Congrats K!
