Duhb-yuh Eych Wahy???

No, this is not about the game “Why” of the late 50’s nor this is about the ‘World Hunger Year’ – a non profitable organization; this one is about the mystery of ‘why’. Known as one of the 5 W’s, a concept used in journalism and investigations, this so called ‘why’ has given severe headaches to most of the students like me (read fresher). The moment we started preparing for the gd/pi’s for the B Schools Mr. Why was always there with us. Be it the preparation sessions or be it hanging out with friends, Mr. Why was hell bent on becoming our friend. Though I did my best to avoid him but without any success. ‘Why MBA’ has to be one of the toughest questions that I have faced so far. I guess preparing for CAT was much better than thinking about Mr. Why and its mystery. Mr. Why managed to give us sleepless nights for sure, and I guess most of the freshers would agree with me. So much so that, there was a ‘why’ in everything. Why Enthusia? Why Technovanza? Why Pratibimb? (These are the names of our college fests). On the lighter side we (I along with Pratik) also had some fun, but the confusion never seems to die. In a way this was a good thing to happen, minus the sleepless nights and trauma (yes it was a trauma). What followed after Mr. Why’s introduction were a series of questions, which made sure that one has to do a lot of introspection. It is only because of this that I could know myself better as a person. Mr. Why also made me realize that it’s important to have some sort of goal in life, which many of us do not. In a way what happened was good, but the mystery of ‘why’ continues….
