before saying anything else.. a few words abt prats..that fat lazy ........

okay..IIMB.. extreeeeemly hectic.. its like fucking 4 engg colleges rolled into one...so anyone who is thinking abt coming here.. be prepared..n there is no alternative.. u just have to do it coz evryone around you willl be doing it..weird funda but believe me its true..

anyways.. classes start at 8:30 sharp.. "class timings r sacrosanct" <= straight pick up from Life@IIMA

3 lectures of 75 mins each with 15 mins break after each lecture..so college officially over at 12:45 !! but real work starts after that... especially if there is a ktg class next day.. lot of stress on grp work..so we hv grp meeting n prepare cases n presentations 4 next day n stuff...courses 4 first yr include stats,accounts,marketing,oranisational behaviour,economics..

bye 4 now

Ok Guys.
All this while it was me masqurading as Deepak and sending all the mails.
Actually he is the fat lazy bastard.

Ok Ok just kidding.

I am sorry people. Seriously. Life sucks big time. I mean I haven't left this campus in the past 22 days.
See its not like we don't have time for anything except studies, but you life is just sooooo involved with activites on campus that you just don't realize that the outside world exists.

Eco quiz happened today. I mean whatever yaar. The only thing that consoles me now is the one sentence that all seniors with a gpa of less than 2.5/4.0 have been telling me:
"I am here for the learning, not the earning"
Hehehe.

So there. That's teh bestest excuse one can give to oneself(and others) when once screws a quiz.

Pagal, dude can you plz tell me what I can do to make up for the big disappearance. I mean can I like sweep the pagalguy cyber floor or something.

btw, every alternate saturday we have these big parties on campus called L-square parties. The name comes from it being held on a central location in the hostel in the shape of an L. Deepak the fat lazy bastard will tell you where the square comes from.

That party is happening currently. And I am not in it cuz i am trying to punish myself for not doing well in the eco quiz. See no what one has to do in life out here.

Cheers,
Prats.

Pagal, dude can you plz tell me what I can do to make up for the big disappearance. I mean can I like sweep the pagalguy cyber floor or something.

ok..we have these hostel blocks from A to J .. and this place it lies between a b and e blocks, i.e ABE blocks. Now ABE was the
nickname of Abraham Lincoln, hence it was called the ABE square, which then
became the Lincoln Aquare or L square

and btw these L Sq parties start at around 12 midnight n go on till abt 5 in the morning.
and aprt frm parties.. we have some plays and competitions as well in L sq..
and recently they put up a basketball ring there so...

and all of a sudden the workload has increased with final dates for lots of submissions coming up.. even the least important course in terms of credits takes a hell lot of time

signing off for now
