Grades?

Heheh.

I've just given my Physics exam..and all i can think about right now is that i've passed Physics,and am definitely passing all the others,and i'm fuckin relieved.I'm not an iota bothered about my grades..im passin and thats it!

Funny.How many people would share my outlook?Barely any.In fact,the majority of people had already passed based on just mid-semester exams...lolz.And these people like studies ,what,7-8 hours right from a week before?Thats like an under-estimation.All to get that elusive 'A' ,or,if u are not chappu,a 'B'.Woo,just thinkin of that makes me laugh like mad.I mean,here i am happy with a 'D'.

Life is all rosy again.No tension.No stress. :)

Magazine making..:-/

Time for another post.Hoping to post one atleast every two days from now..:)

Well..the mid-sems provided a much UN-needed break to all the fun,and a week of torture ended with me performing decent in math and batti(elec) ,bad in TA(Technical Arts...Drawing Crap)and rank bad in none other than my very own departmental,the physics paper.

Ah well,whats done is done,no point in crying over spilt milk,we should learn from our mistakes,failure is the stepping stone to success an all dat taken into account,i swinged right into the usual time-wasting action packed schedule :D

First off,the ELS arranged a magazine making contest..so five of us usual peeps~me,aditya naveen,siddharth,anish,ketan...the English Literary cum photography cum fun cum what-not gang went into it with gusto.Three hours.18 A4 size sheets.Colour pens an stuff.Gotta make a magazine.

We put in pretty decent articles and two real good poems an other stuff,but the designing was horrible.Another team had such a front cover,ours paled into nothing in comparison.Hmmm.No hopes there.Better luck next time i guess.

Other than that,its been pretty normal .Reading The Reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid for the Literary Discussion Group meeting next weekend,thats something to look forward to.Also might go the Delhi Book Fair coming up in two weeks...

Also,went to a Video Conferencing Session with Mr.Myr ,senior developer of Mozilla Corporation who took some time off to chat about add-ons and all that in mozilla...was fun too,,

And planning to go to Manali in the mid-sem break (march mid) for skiing ....from IITK Adventure Club.Ought to be fun too.Only prob,conditioning camp everyday morn 6 30.At sub-ten temps.Sigh.

Anyways,there s a lab tomorrow at ten.Gotta get up for that.Else,will gfet fucked ..

Til tomorrow,
Saketh(~SaKi..wat say:) )

The Mobile Home

Life goes on in the hostel as hectic as usual..bunking classes,eating junk food,solving crosswords,novels,musik,bulla..amidst it all i had a weird feeling there was something wrong.

IIT K had given me a room.I never went there!

I am either eating at the canteen,reading in the reading room,playing in some field,or bulla in some wing.I even sleep in different rooms!As a result,my things get spread over the hostel.Very inconvenient.

Coupled with the fact that i recently lost my room key for a record eight time(the only sort of thing i can beat my roomie in,i lead 8-0 :-( ),and also that wheneva i see my roomie these days,its invariably because i am asking for his key...

I mean,just imagine.You dont attend classes much.You don't get much motivation to study.Loads of other activities going on.Say you SOMEHOW gather the interest to pick up the books and study..you find that you've left this thing there an that rooms locked an the other guys lost his key and this guy s not there....You get the drift.

So i came up with a novel concept.An innovative method tailor-made to suit my needs of the moment.A mental breakthrough which left me on an intellectual high on conceiving the idea.

The Mobile Home.

Yep.I carry around my home with me...how can you do that you say?i ll have to carry two three bags don't i?
Ah.there s the catch.See,if you're the sort of guy/gal i am,it aint no big deal.Let me elucidate.The following constitute the contents of my Patented(yah) Mobile Home backpack.

*Three novels(from the book club)
*All three prescribed texts of the course
*One Rough Note
*One Nokia Charger.
*Collection of DVD'S(Two packs)
*One tooth-brush
*The Day's Newspaper
*A mix of pens and pencils
*A pair of bathroom slippers(i ll be wearing shoes)

TA-DA!
done.
Mob in the right pocket.Wallet on the left.
Life on the fast lane.

Clothes?Hmmm...i can visit ma room once a week...more than enough :-)
All together very light on the back.Now i dont live anywhere.I Just camp from place to place. :-)
Simple.

Now i ve got bored of this Computer Centre..am moving to the TV room.Will camp there a few hours.;-)

Ahh.The nomads must have lived in Bliss.I am certainly feeling heavenly.With my MH around,life cant get more convenient.
