Me, Myself and .... Marketing

Well..thats what I'm goin to specialise in.Finally i got some things clear in life... professionally!Dad n Mom would'v wanted me to get into finance.. though I'm sure that they are also not clear abt the work that goes on!!Fin craze I guess...
I was asked to give my rankings for the companies..and i guess I was the only one on campus to have companies like J.P.Morgan, Lehman Bros etc. ranked right at the bottom of my list!
Marketing is fun.. marketing is what i want to do. It is the only thing i ever wanted to do after 21 years of education.It consists of all the things I love doing- interacting with people, pitchin your proposal to people, tryin to understand what they want, how to develop promotion campaigns to increase the sales of your product.... I guess I can go on and on..
INDEX has been very instrumental in making me figure out what i want to do. The kind of work i did in INDEX- interacting with clients, pitching for INDEX proposals, selling INDEX to local sponsors-working out deals to get maximum benefit..these things, however small they may sound have been a great influence for me to figure out my career.
I never really understood the funda-but I did have people telling me that I'm a marketing person and that I shouldnt even think about anythin else.Always smiled but couldn figure out which was that attribute because of which people think I'm good in marketing. The side reasons of not taking fin-I've never liked maths and i definately hate MANAC(accounting subject). Summers start from next week, I will be asked time and again to justify 'why marketing'. But atleast this time I'm more confident..a lot more confident than i was to my 'why mba' question during CAT. :)
