Mixed bag of emotions!!!!!!!!!!!

I am feeling quite f$%#^d and at the same time good too about what happened yesterday..
I had a t-con with one of the McCombs alumni at night 2330Hrs. He is based out of SJ, CA. I narrated to him about my past and achievements.. He had very good things to say and also even offered to refer me as part of the alumni referral program. Meeting went on for around one and half hours.. So it was quite fruitful. The negative part is that even after having an exceptional application.. where I am lacking is my GMAT score which is not so great.. he emphasized so much on that.. and then I felt so low.. I have worked so hard on applying this time.. and the essays and applications have come out so well.. Considering he is part of the adcom and so would know more in to what adcom looks into, I started feeling really bad.
I wrote to Jennifer and she assured me that based upon her experiences I still stood a very good chance. So not to worry about this much.. She also mentioned that I could give my GMAT once again after finishing my McCombs application.
Now comes the maths part. I think if that is one huge stone that I need to turn to make it to the big schools, then I have to turn this stone.
Karna hai, to bas karna hai. That's it man... I never give up. always a fighter. So no reason to give up now, rather I need to think and plan out as to what I can do. Essentially it means that what can I do to get more time from office work. Ok few things that I have to do:
1. Give GMAT before 31st Dec 2007.
2. Cancel all plans of Goa and SriLanka or Assam
3. I would have exactly 45 days to make a turn around..
4. Stop Gym.
5. I think the best possible thing I have done is to keep a cook. So that should take care of my time that goes in cooking. I have realized tht I can't eat outside anymore in Hotels.
6. Cut off from the world till this year ends.
7. What else??? well, think about it and jot it down..

YOU GOT TO DO IT MAN!!!!!!!!! No other option. So get on with it and come out of that F$%^#d up mood.
