ILP - Bhubaneswar

Recieved my first pay check today - xx,xxx credited to my ICICI account !! Very excited !! Hope it were credited twice a month...;)

ILP has been great so far. Done with the mid term. Am Elected Principal Co ordinator for CSR (Corporate Social Responcibility) - a challenging and responsible job.

In CSR, we as a team carry out various social projects like visiting the orphanage, organizing a blood donation camp, visiting the home for destitute women etc. CSR has made my schedule very hectic, but then I have taken it out of choice and am doing my best to do justice to it. The satisfaction at the end of each project is immense. Most of the breaks, I am busy chalking out plans (weekends being the execution time).  We also have fund raising events such as DJ night, screening of movies.

I have managed a couple of outings too in the week ends, when I was not out for a CSR activity. There were two batches from Vizag when it came to outings. One was the Uday's Protection force (UPF) - I still wonder how could someone come up with this creative name :) and the other was the batch comprising Manju, Deepak, Anukhya, Muni, Dhan to name a few. Visited the historic Konark temple and the Jagannath temple with the UPF batch and went for the famous Chilka lake with the other batch.

Made many good friends here. Wonder if it was the maturity (helps you not to be choosy) which we have now or the ice breakers held at the campus, a short span was good enough for a good number of friends. I cannot fail but mention my neighbours Amey and Faizan with whom I have had such good time having fun.

With a couple of weeks to wrap up our training of two months, I wish I fare well in my end term exam and the project !!
