I had never heard of a book called "Joker among the pack", a Chetan Bhagat-ish take on life at the IIMs. If I had, and if I had read it, I would have realised long back that all that happened for the first 4 days, was all big a farce. Just a way to rag the juniors, since ragging is legally banned.
It's called "HellWeek". All the 5.15 morning jogs, SAD classes, Yoga sessions, post-midnight assignments, threats of an 'F' in audit courses was all a load of crap. Ragging season ended last night, and quite predictable. So much so, that the joke was on the seniors. They announced that a PGP1 guy was caught with dope in his room, and he was to be expelled. The insti director was to address us all at 9PM, so the entire college assembled in the auditorium. There they gave us a lot of gyaan... But we were too smart for that; some wise-cracks actually questioned all their theories and claims!!! (I kept my mouth shut though).
It all ended with them coming out with it all. A big party ensued, after this 'welcome' for us. They predictable dunked many of us with water from the terrace, aseembling us purportedly to take photographs. After that, was a dance party, music, non-alchoholic drinks, the works...
The best part about this whole deal is, I CAN SLEEP PEACEFULLY TILL 9!!!!
