A Lazy Sunday Morning...

Frankly speaking, the only reason i am writing this blog is that i am really bored. The world has come to a standstill. I read the newspaper today after almost a week, and the news remains the same. Absolutely nothing new to read about. I know I am in the middle of my semester exams (the last one at that) and I should be studying for the next one, but it is still two days away. And as a mechanical engg in SVR, its a big crime to start off so early. Specially when your subject is something as dull as TQM (I am sure most of u out there know what it stands for, so please tell me about it). Just went through the stuff once some time back, and I realised then itself that my answer paper is gonna be a jumble of the following words :

1) Customer Satisfaction

2) Training for the workers

3) Continuous Evaluation

4) Self-Improvement

5) Scientific Methods

Mix them up, and make the full usage of the oh-so-flexible and versatile English language, and voila - thats my answer paper! It pays to have a decent knowledge of the language, u can easily play around with words and escape scot-free. Trust me, it works.

As for my previous exams, well...things were going fine till "Friday, the 28th" happened. Easily the biggest disaster of my illustrious academic career (yup...i am serious), the only consolation I have is that i have already seen the worse. And the next two being not so difficult, i can safely say i am almost done with engineering. Looking back, i was not so hard.

Amazingly, we have been getting internet 24 hours a day for the past one week. Yup, exactly the same time as our exams started. What sort of conspiracy is this! Dont they wanna let us go out of this place with some peace? We thought that if somehow we manage some decent scores this time around, maybe it will make up for all the previous catastrophes. 'Cause as they say, Alls well that ends well. But it was not to be. And with the orkut fever reaching it's peak, the guys end up spending almost 4-5 hours per day only on orkut. People like Pole and Hunk have their scrap counts increased @ almost 100/day!!! Unfortunately, urs truly has also fallen into the trap. Its like, ek chapter ho gaya...lets orkut for a while. So u study for one hour, and to compensate (!) for it, Ur orkut for almost 2 hours!!! Its is so goddamn addictive!

Now that i am coming to the end of my wonderful hostel life, one thing i am gonna miss the most is the college LAN. What an amazing storehouse it is! One stop destination for all ur computer needs. How can i forget those hours and hours that i have spent on LAN playing AOE? So many things to see, so many things to do. I was counting yesterday, and the number of movies available on LAN was close to 150!!! and this i am talking about only Hollywood stuff. Just dont know how i am gonna manage my comp at home with the LAN. I have spent the past 50 hours trying to collect all the stuff that i can, and burn it away on CDs/DVDs so that i can carry some part of it along. My dear ol' Compaq Presario is working overtime at the limit of its processing powers. Let us see how AMD Athalon holds out to this work load. And while all the work is going on in the background, this is the only thing i can do without using up too much of my CPU resources.

Now with the mouth watering sunday lunch around the corner, time for me to hit the showers (though no such thing exists in the hostel). A sumptuous lunch, and then to do what i am best at...

Zzzzzz!
