Good work allwyn... i also thot we were jus overreacting a bit.
any ways...it's the weekend and i hav some free time .. tho my classmetes dont think so. all of em must be in the library or the computer centre studying even on the weekend... it's been tuff work here from day 1. hardly get to sleep 3-4 hrs and still hav loads of backlog. surprise quizzes all the time...never know wats comin ur way.
ne ways... i guess it's been a long time since i last sent a long post. So here goes... hmm...
A Day AT MDI...don't think this needs a separate thread..
After a long day's work and 3-4 hrs of sleep get up at around 7:30..classes here begin at 8:30 AM... and no late entries.. profs r bang on time and they expect students to be present when they enter..first thing that strikes the mind is to check if the prof is carrying some stupid yellow colored pack in his hand… gr8 news…another quiz coming our way.
7 subjects….way too many to be covered in 3 months? … no ways…. we r expected to do some serious front logging when most ppl here suffer from a backlog syndrome.
Most subjects have marks for class participation.. so we have broadly classified our class into 2 categories… There’s something we call DCP (Desperate Class participators) and another grp namely DOSA( Department of silent audience) . For those wondering.. i belong to the latter category…
Most ppl in class can be seen trying their best to keep their partners awake during class… ppl here r seriously sleep deprived.. We have a café in the acad block so go for a quick coffee betn classes … (have a 15 mins break) .. So somehow a long day comes to an end..(that’s only the classes) … now back to the hostel and time for lunch.. the food is gr8 out here.. u get lottsa variety.. and an ice cream for dessert is the best part.. after lunch most ppl try to get in a quick nap while other prefer getting straight to work.. evening time is hectic time.. grp meetings all over the place.
To compound the problems..there’s always some other activity going on..some club meetings and selection processes and forms to fill and wat not… u r bound to miss something or the other. Some how u get thru the evening part and now it’s already 8:00 PM.. time for dinner.. hav a quick dinner and time to get back to work.. so much to do and no time.. hostels r hot so we go to the library or the computer centre to study… it’s hard to find space..so usually we get free at around 2 AM.. now it’s time for some refreshments and …time to go to NESCAFE… we have a small café…and lawns. That’s the place to freak out. It’s a gr8 feeling to sit and discuss trivial issues…and campus news and some other faaltu stuff.
So finally we reach our rooms at 3 AM and then time to get some sleep in hope fully…
Well I guess it’s getting too long and boring…
Time to get a short and quick nap…
Bye…..
