I don't want to sound desperate but Iam being honest here.
A few years ago,I started blogging because I wanted to just let my thoughts out.
My blog then basically covered my fears,concerns or frustrations. I could share my happines with others. But fear ..with whom could I share..no one. So, I blogged!
Over a period of time, I realized that I shared a lot of aspects of my life.
Blogging helped the restless me turn into a patient me.

When I started this blog (Fight to my flight), I was in a upbeat mood.It has not been a smooth ride for me anywhere in life but I have always reminded myself of one thing -if it wasn't for my aptitude, my attitude took me to where I wanted to go.

Wondering why Iam writing all this...Coz the overseas interview invites have been sent and I haven't got one. I know only one person who hasn't got an invite till now. Rest all have got.Itz clearly a case of my low GMAT score being the cause of my elimination. If you are wondering why I didn't retake the test, I did take it..but that is the best I could manage.

Well, life does not end here.OK...for the time being, it definitely stops for me here. Iam still hoping that I'll get a call tomm. If I don't get, it will take some time for me to absorb the fact that the dream is over.I think I need to draw some inspiration from King Bruce and the Spider.Perhaps,they would understand how it feels to fail .

I could have not applied to the school and continued with what I had in life.
My chances were slim but I believed that my extra currics and essays would fetch me an interview call and I would get a chance to prove myself. Perhaps, I overestimated my abilities.

Itz 09.00 am here amd am still at home. My heart refuses to believe that I did not see an email from the Admissions department but my mind says that itz all over.
I think I'll put on a mask,swallow my disturbed thoughts and head to the office now -as if nothing happened.

If I don't hear anything by Monday, I'll send in the acceptance amount for the CMU thing.

And change my name..Perhaps,I wasn't made for ISB.!

hi madeforisb,

This is rohit. I have been following your blog for a while now and believe me the first wish i made after seeing the invite in my mailbox today morning was "god please let madeforisb get the invite too". My heart says that you will definitely get an invite. dont loose heart. I sincerely hope you get an invite.

Same here...first thing that I did after seeing all the invites was to see whether you've got one. I sincerely hope and pray that you get one as well.

B,

As soon as you I saw the invite, I thought about you and was wondering whether you got it or not. I had to go outside and came back and checked your blog first. Really disappointing to see that you haven't got an invite yet. I am not sure if the review process has been completed. Am expecting more invites to be sent out soon..Sincerely hoping to see you in ISB..Fingers crossed.

-Bharani
