Batch 2007-2010

Hey all…

Well today I am gonna introduce u to my class mates via the people who completes my college life…

Sara(me) à when I entered iilm I was excited, nervous, scared, happy etc etc… in totality I had like 10000 things going up and down my brain , but only thing which was constant was the light and the feeling that said… ‘sara the new world is just a step ahead, step forward with a new confidence , make new friends, live and excavate a new me within you’…

When I opened the door I had like 30 eyes on me… I became very scared and nervous… all the feeling of doing wrong things came in my head but somehow I tend to make good friends…

At this moment when I think about my first day I laugh at my self… one thing I can say is that iilm have given me good friends . some are intelligent , some are dumb , some are mad, some are pretentious , some are ambitious , some are opportunist but THEY ARE MY FRIENDS , they complete my journey of graduation….. I love u all guys…. Mwhaaa …. I really do…

Ankita Walliaà what to say about this gurl… she is my best friend , my guide and yes the most hardworking gurl in town…. I never gelled with her the first day , I thought she had like this oodles and oodles of attitude problem .. the funny part is, she thought the same about me.. but now, I know her and she knows me .. we share great bond together.. and I know we will be friends for lifetime…

Chandni Rajuà we have this great bond of trust and understanding.. some people say that birds of same feather flock together , well that’s not the case with us.. she is like typical ‘sweet gurl next door’ and I am totally this ‘blunt and bindass gurl’ …I somehow laugh on our combination cause seriously its odd one out but the good part is we both trust each other completely ..

Nishant sondhi à one of the most ambitious person I have come across (in +ve sense).. somehow when ever I talk to him I feel so proud of him… his goal , his picture of reality is so clear in front of him.. whenever I am in some sort of emotional trap I call him up and give my self a reality check.. I know and I wish that he gets everything in life wateva he wish for.. god bless!!!

Srishti Bhasin à we have this great love hate relationship.. people think that we hate each other but guys that’s really not the truth.. she is one gem of a person, if u get to know her u gonna love each side oh ‘Srishti Bhasin’ .. really …. Her dancing skill and confidence level is to die for.. great going gurl wish u all the luck in this world…

Karan anand à one kid of our class.. I seriously thing he is the cutest person in our class… he would always manage to get in some or the other trouble…but he is so innocent that people try to take undue advantage of him.. I wish he grows up in life and settle down asap.. but I really wish all the best to him because he doesn’t know his brain is so good in terms of creativity and captivity .. way to go dude…cheers!!!

Akshay à one crazy yet interesting person to hangout with.. I just love his one-linners.. I wish him all the luck and I know that he would be successful in his massive plan for future… stay in touch dude.. god bless!!

Sunny à what to say about him .. he is one guy who is so intelligent that even if he reads a chapter 10 min before the exam he would score 20 on 30 in it .. he is extremely jovial person … he tends to have a great sense of humor.. all the best for future dude..way to go.. stay in touch

Niharika malik à when I saw her for the first time I thought ‘ why is she angry?’ hhehehehe… but she is very friendly and intelligent.. once u get to know her well , she will be all pally pally with you , trust me guys… ya she has a bad side too.. but please DO NOT STEP THERE.. Best of luck.. u would go places…!!!

Sabia kochar à she is so sweet, subtle and girl next door … she doesn’t talk much but she is very intelligent …. I love her quiet and subtle behaviour… good going gurl…all the best for future!!

Sehraj à one can not stay away from his one liners and pranks.. his presence is quiet evident in class… I just love his one liners … and whenever he is in mood to enjoy then one must sit in radhika maam’s class and witness sehraj’s and maam’s interaction… all the best dude !!. stay in touch !!!...

Amandeep singh à he is one enthusiastic person in our class.. some people might mis-understand him, but he is a great person at heart… he has little more anger than everybody but I know he would work on it… all the best in life and I know you would get wat u want….

Aditya à he is one of the finest cricketer I have come across… he is very down to earth , ya little slow in terms of adjustment but very friendly once you get down to know him well…

Kushal à hmmm… he is very intelligent but the problem is he is not aware of it …. He is very friendly and has a spark of coming out as a leader in worst situation (I am saying this because I have seen a situation wherein his whole team was slogging but due to his confidence and his ability, he was able to handle the situation)… way to go dude…. just hold on to your confidence and trust ur instincts…

Arjun à well when I saw him for the first time I was like… ‘wow, he is cutely handsome?’ then in first year we hardly exchanged words but yes , I know he is very good and extremely confident when it comes down to give any presentations …. I wish him all the luck in life and would request him to lighten the class room more often ….. hehehehhe …. God bless!!

Sahil à being really frank I hardly know him… but what ever little I could conclude about his shy nature and his suttle yet evident personality is to good to be around with … I wish him all the best for his dream to be super model…good going boy…

Eshan à he is The techno freak of our class.. name it any gadget , name it any software and eshan is the answer to all… he is extremely friendly and yet very interesting person because his ‘art attack’ his ‘cartoonzz’ are to die for .. he has one of the wackiest brain I have come across… great going … all the best for future…!!

Pawan à well well well… he is a great sportsman indeed , yet I have seen him urging to make a mark in what ever he does.. let it be studies , let it be quiz , let it be presentation, call it anything.. I somehow appreciate his nature of being unsatisfied because according to me .. people who are unsatisfied make a mark in the world cause they strive really hard to make them-self satisfied… wish u all the luck in life..!!

Pratyangna aka prats à she is one sweet, innocent girl next door.. I just love the way she treat life and others in it… I wish her all the best and wish that she gets all happiness in this world… love u … little angel…

1ST YEAR EXPERIENCE

As I ponder over the last year, I still remember the first day I was deciding what to wear, what not to wear, what to say, what not to say, how to conduct myself, how my batch mates will be and how my teachers will be? I still remember the butterflies in my stomach as I entered the gates of the college. A few faces looked friendly but others seemed like they were passing judgments. Once I was in the campus, I was mentally prepared to face the next challenge- RAGGING. I faced it, laughed at myself and a lot more at others and felt happy and relieved that I wasn’t asked to do the same. Very soon, I made friends and ones that I will treasure for a lifetime. Although, it took a while to adjust and to get past all the gossip, conflicts and judgments, today, I can say that my first year at IILM is one I will always remember. It was a stepping stone to the future and I learnt a lot in terms of life, in terms of education.

My 1^st year in IILM is complete in all aspects- friends, studies, parties, play, co-curricular- every aspect!

Today, as I reflect over my last year, I feel great happiness and wish that my next year is just as adventurous and rich with memories.

A Hostel experience is an experience of a lifetime:

Being a part of a university you have students coming from all over the world. IILM is one such melting pot. We have students from all around. And that means we have a bunch of hostlers as well. IILM has striven to provide great accommodation facilities for the students. Even though the hostel is not on campus but it is located in a safe and friendly housing society near the campus. The mere location of the place makes it great to live in .We hostlers are put up in 4 bedroom apartments on a room sharing basis. With all the household facilities such as cooking gas, refrigerator, washing machine etc provided to us living becomes very easy. Charges remain reasonable since packages are available at different levels of pricing. Overall it’s a clean, easy, safe and reliable living option.


Apart from the monetary aspect, it’s fun to live in a hostel. I mean of course 8 girls in an apartment sounds like loads of fun. Well that’s what it is. I have had a ton of fun during my first year in the hostel and also found great friends to support me. Living together, eating together, dancing, chatting and above all studying together has given us innumerable memories to cherish. It indeed feels great when during the exam time the whole house is revising together, stressing out together and rejoicing together. All in all living independently in a hostel enriches ones college experience and IILM takes care of our every need. So future hostlers do not hold a fear of living alone in your hearts, because its way better than you had imagined.

Examination System at IILM:

The examination system in IILM is run according to the University if Bradford. Here we have a 2 semester system leaving aside the zero term which helps polish the transition between school to college.

Each year we start with a zero term which is designed to make us understand and get used to the various concepts which we will face throughout the year. This term holds great importance in dealing with the courses in the semesters that follow. Both semesters are a good balance of easy, interesting and challenging courses. In the first semester courses such as Quantitative methods of Information management have challenged us and enriched us at the same time, second semester courses only get more interesting.

Examination time is stressful in every student’s life and IILM tries its level best to ease the process for us. Each of our lecturers provided us with enough time to revise and fully understand what the exam format expects out of us. Previous year’s revision papers are made available for the students and the lecturers guide us through.

The best method of preparation is for the students to practice questions in an examination environment, and IILM understand this need. Every semester we have a series of mock exams which emulate the Bradford examination system hence preparing students adequately for the final term.

Hence examinations are a much dreaded period in every student’s life but IILM makes it as easy as an institute can.

Summer time

 

What time is it?

Summer Time! It is the much awaited season- SUMMERS!! So take swim suits leave behind the blacks and grey and spunk it up with the colors! The sun might be scorching but we have our refreshers- cocktails and mocktails and our desi lassis and nimbu panis to beat the heat and not to forget ice-creams.

For those who would like to spend time more productively, we have various internship programmes and summer camps to unleash their creativity. Amusement parks are out with, their water rides- so, it’s time to explore these with your old and new friends. Other than these, summers are the best time to explore good movies and books. And it is always nice to indulge in social service!

So, put these summers to good use – have fun and spend, time usefully and yes, don’t forget to use sunscreen lest you shall return to college looking like something else!!

Voting

Hey all… well the topic might not be interesting as you would have read about it every where but trust me the content is worth a check out..

Lok-Sabha 2009 election was schedule for  7^th may in Delhi and Haryana, it was then when I casted my first lok-sabha vote cause it was, my 1^st election after I became 18…wooo hell lot of responsibility..

 

It was my first vote.. I was so excited to look at the machine, the booth officer and all the country men and women who would come there with same or different opinions.

 

I still remember I was so enthusiastic that day, specially to cast my vote I got up at 8’o, clock in the morning and got ready before my dog could actually finish his morning food..offff

 

While on the way to voting-booth I asked my dad around 10,000 questions and my mum was laughing at me.. offffff I still don’t know why was she laughing, I mean com’mon I was not acting wired I was just inquisitive.

 

Finally when I reached the voting booth I saw 100 to 150 people and a great feeling of nationality roared in me, which usually come out during the time of a cricket match between India and Pakistan…lolzz…

but on a serious note , I was scared and I asked my dad one question..

“Dady, is it important to vote”

my dad, said “what’s wrong” ,

I was like.. “nothing really but it’s a great responsibility and moreover 1 vote would not make a difference but might spoil up things more”,

my dad turned at me that moment and said, “it would make a difference, you belong to this country and people have sacrificed their life to get this right of voting, you should be proud of your rights not insult them by ignoring. So make up your mind and take your decision wisely”.

 

At that moment I felt ‘REAL’..

I am a teenager and people like me often do things which are only cool and stay away from politics and all …..but that time when I finaly went to the booth and had that mark on my fingure I was fealing “an Indian”.

When I went there I knew whom to vote for and the best part was not because my mum and dad wanted me to vote for him,

Nor because my boy-friend wanted me to vote for him,

Not because he had manipulative speeches,

Not because he had film star to campaign for his party,

Not because once he was a famous film star,

Not because he was a famous cricketer,

Not because he had good relations with my favorite actor,

Not because he is a son of a famous politician,

 

BECAUSE I HAD FULL CONFIDENCE ON MY DECISION AND I KNEW HE AND HIS SUPPORTIVE PARTY COULD DO AND HAVE DONE WONDERS IN PAST AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO IN PRESENT AND FUTURE.

 

I VOTED FOR ‘AJAY MAKHAN- UPA’.

 

In this whole experience of voting I had learnt An encouraging lesson of growing up and standing firm on decision, I am proud to be an Indian.

 

Trust me guys… voting and being an Indian is not out of fashion nor is it ‘not cool’ or ‘crummy’… if you have not casted your vote this time then indulge your self from starting in the next elections, know the name of the candidates , know the name of the parties evolved and know the name of the person you want to vote, know his portfolio, know his past and present area of working because “your right move will decide the ruling party who can make all the moves in the country”….

 

And trust me “YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE”.

 

Keep voting

 

For a change I wont say ciao…

 

Jai hind…
