Week 8

of the internship... and I am full of new ideas, exploring ways to read and dissect a 10-k, a 10-q and a earnings call. The initial days were slow, but the work has really picked up a lot in last few weeks. The regulations prevent me to speak about specific things ( and also any stock trade :(), so will leave it at that. But, all in all I am hoping to achieve a lot in the last three weeks of my internship.

In NY, I am spending time meeting old friends and make new friends. My internship buddies are awesome, a mix of MBA and some undergrads. Nice vibrant mix to have in a group and we are having a blast.

There are quiet a few MBA type mixers, Banking events, etc. But, whatever said and done, I miss my school life. I know why i must make full use of my Second Year and enjoy every moment at school. My to-do list for Second year has grown beyond proportion, and I am already thinking to myself that I didnt do enough in first year, even though I pushed myself a lot.

My New York Days

are turning out to be full of activity. This place is really a hub of financial activity, vibrant life style, happening places and tons of people. NY lifestyle reminds me of Mumbai. Well, this summer has become an opportunity to meet my old friends, some after 13-15 years.

I stay in Jersey city, by the riverfront and am loving the area. This place has hep surroundings, less crowded and a starbucks close by :). I love my starbucks while listening to the waves of Hudson. Besides, every third person in my apartment complex is a Ivy league MBA, and working in Wall Street.

The summer internship is picking up steam, as I am midway through the project. The colleagues and some of the people I have interacted with are sharp and fun to work with. Summer is a long 10 week interview and also a honey moon period for us.

Happy Independence day!!
