The week the week was..........

This week’s been the absolute worst so far, since school started. The IIT-Physics test was a colossal failure, thanks to the excursion and my preparation or lack thereof…. Was so disgusted by my mark, that I was feeling absolutely depressed, as in, suicidal depressed.


But as Swe rightly pointed out, today’s been a relief from depression as we spent the day discussing the eternal truths of life. Bio period turned me into a mushy romantic and I was dead sure that I was half in a mental delirium as we usually are after we finish writing the assignments…

The assignment week… A term that has come to be dreaded by most of us out here…. Maths went off in the most unusual manner with me forgetting basic multiplication in the middle of the assignment, resulting in one big long wrong sum. (Basic referring to the order of 608 * 1512 – though it wasn’t exactly the same)

So the PT period after the Maths assignment went in considerable agony, with me refusing to play. So I went and sat down somewhere near the smaller volleyball court. Swe, Pavi, Runi and Jaya were playing badminton and I was brooding. Margaret and Renuka came over and asked me why I wasn’t playing and I told them that I wasn’t feeling well. Swe coming up innovatively with ingenious ideas told her I sprained my ankle… They told me to remove my shoe and in the process found out that I wasn’t wearing school socks… Strike 1

Margaret twisted my leg around so much that I started to scream in real agony considering the fact that I have very fragile joints… Uggghhhh… It was pure torture and I was sure that I probably sprained my ankle after that…

Biology was by far the crappiest performance along with Chemistry. Studied totally for about an hour for both and went and wrote the asst with faceless courage… Not bad for what I prepared but I don’t think I will be anywhere near the 22’s and 23’s in class…

Physics and English were the easiest and hopefully I should get a decent score on both. As far as physics was concerned, I had written some kind of a formula sheet for reference partly because my class work was absolutely crappy and partly because I needed it for an old friend.

Pradhum came across this one and told me that he needed to Xerox it. Slowly this spread and almost everyone had a copy of this except me… L

But the funniest part was teaching AK, Ajay and Swe Vectors… Me and Swe were already at our all time high, and teaching vectors just got a lot more rounds of laughter… And then of course, there was EG period in which the physics problems were dictated… By the time the class was over, we were literally on the floor laughing…. The hole through the paper and the ball through the wall indeed, ( I guess non-bio students wouldn’t understand what I am saying but nevertheless, eternal truths of life) And of course, I wasted no time letting the poet in me get the better of me, whether or not it turned out to be for the better is yet another question... But the whole thing came to a classic halt with me and Swe taking turns and irritating Pavi by singing " One Love " and " Bheegi Bheegi Rathon Mein "

Today was simply superb. To hell with Maths, and to hell with Biology… We spent the whole time chatting away to glory, with Shanky remarking once in a while that we shouldn’t “talk while copying and that we should understand and then copy” Classic comedy should be the name of this class….

Meanwhile, I am yet to prepare even a word of the 4 essays I gotta be writing for my oratorical next Sunday. Drug abuse presentation next week… Life’s “la tortura”


P.S – Swe, “Hips don’t lie” da... U get the drift?

Well, off now...
