Last 2 days update

I am attending the Dandiya practice sessions regularly. Its fun, but to my disappointment, I have lost all the touch with dance. Need to concentrate there now. I have made couple of friends here and I have really started enjoying my stay here. This morning while waiting for the ISB shuttle, I was thinking and praying Ohh Lord…Please make the next 6 mnths longer n longer. I have already got fascinated with this place. It’s a small city in itself where everyone stays together and has fun. I was also thinking Kaash aisa ho ki humko life mein baad mein bhi aisi hi luxuries milae. Cool isn’t it!!

I am yet to make up some real good friends whom I can also invite for dinner. I discussed the same with hubby and he was like u can invite anyone bachaa. It’s not a problem. I am just waiting for my grinder and spices to come now and then I will start inviting people arnd here.
We are all going for a half day picnic this Friday. I am looking fwd to it and will share the snaps with all of u.

A general thing to all the people who want to join this place at anytime in life. This is a superb place to be and we get this opportunity once in a lifetime wherein you would get to stay with your friends and live with them. Its really fun. I would suggest everyone to come and experience this place.

I was telling my BIL about this yesterday and he say “Bhabhi you are making me J. You are having fun here”

My experience / first impression about SFA

I got an opportunity to interact with the SFA association active here. We are going to have a Dandiya night on Oct 22nd, hence all spouses met at SV 2, common room to start preparation for the same. I spoke to R (A’s wife) and me, herself, A and P all went together to SV-2. There were a lot of people present there, but to my disappointment I didn’t know anyone. I felt really bad. People knew each other already, but me knew very very few ones. I kept on introducing myself to whomsoever I could. P also introduced me to quite a few people. I felt as if, why the hell did I join late. And if I have joined late, why did I come down for this session. Let me stay at home only. People were also not bothering for an introduction. But may be that’s how it is. With the days to come, I will soon get over this and will start knowing everyone. We started with the dance preparation, it was okay and we finalized on first 3-4 steps. There were people who knew dandiya and were teaching others. The group on the whole is good and very enthusiastic. Lately towards the end, S came to me and asked me if I am the new spouse who was to join. I became so delighted and thought oh good koi to hai who knows and cares. Waisae to P was also showing a lot of concern. I really thank / appreciate S’s gesture. All the people here are nice and good in their own ways. I got to know that S2 (I m naming her S2 to avoid confusion) is our President and R – Vice President. K also showed the treasurer but you know, I am not so good and remembering names soon.
At the end of the day, I realized that may be the coming days are gonna be really hectic, going back from office, cooking, gym, dance classes and the novel which I have started reading (Prodigal Daughter). Cool!! I like it.

Looking forward to the SFA picnic due this weekend & dandiya preparations.

Reached Hyd

Here I go. I have reached Hyd and ISB. By brother-in-law came to pick me up from Bangalore as I had a lot of luggage. Oh my God, the house (specially the kitchen) was such a mess. The kitchen stuff which I shipped from Bangalore was still to be arranged. I cleaned the house and setup my kitchen stuff like utensils n all. The grocery n all, I will go n buy over the weekend.

Joined office yesterday afternoon and was allocated space too. Spoke to my boss and asked for some work.
Today, hubby has his section party. Initially before coming up here, I was always excited about the parties here. But since yesterday, I am a little afraid and tensed too. Want to skip the party. I am too late here and don’t know anyone. By this time, people have already gotten into groups. Will I be able to adjust and get myself involved? There was a gypsy party of spouses last weekend. I heard it was good. And you know what, I had mailed the person that I won’t be able to join this party and later she mentioned my name in the mail. It was too cool on her part to remember me and mention the same.

Last evening, was hell-of a boring. I was tired and nothing to do. Didn’t even feel like watching the TV? But it’s okay. It’s just the initial few days, later on after I start cooking, I will have that work to be done too. I have planned to join the gym, let’s see how much I will be able to achieve. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Will post the party updates later.

My First Post

Hi All,
As u might know that I am a wife of an ISB'ian. I am planning to write my experience about being a spouse of a student.

Disclaimer: All the posts written on this blog are solely my perception. This is not an official site at all.

Ok. Here I go.

I would soon be joining my husband @ISB after a long wait of 6 months. Almost half way through his studies@ISB. The day he joined ISB, I was always fascinated by the thought of Life@ISB, however till now I didn't get a chance to actually experience the lifestyle because of my work. But now after a long wait I would be joining him there. The count down has already started. As everyone knows that Life@ISB, especially for the students if extremely hectic, hence this makes me question "Will he have time for me?” On the other side, I also feel "I hope I won't disturb him in his studies." Anyway from what I know till date, the SFA (Spouse .... Association) is very active there. Hence, I suppose I would be equally busy there. I am extremely excited and worried too.

Chalo rest later
