WillPower,Plus Points, Food and Movie
I have realised it took a lot of my will power to:
- Get up early in the morning in freezing conditions.
- Listen to the droning of the lecturer without falling asleep(people fall asleep in the front row itself).
- Endure the torturous computer programming lab where the tutor was valiantly trying to teach us stuff like how to open a folder in windows,how to create a new folder etc,when everybody already knows it.
- Realise and accept that my Thermodynamics grade has slipped from B to C due to just 3 marks (out of 300),and that my CGPA could have been 8.1 instead of 7.8.
- Control frustration during the frequent power cuts due to some generator problem.
- Come to the IPC and write this post on a warm saturday afternoon when everybody was playing either AOE or CS.
This proves what I had long suspected-I have a lot of willpower!
Now there are some plus points in this sem:
- No. of tuts have been reduced so that the load on the students is reduced.However they have increased the number of mid sem tests from one to two and are claiming that the tut tests will be tougher than before.
- Speed at the IPC has improved significantly,hence surfing the net has become easier.
- The lecturers have improved somewhat,and that I am attending the lectures frequently.
- Engineering Graphics is much more interesting subject than Workshop practice.
- Computer programming too seems promising.
Food today in our mess was awesome as usual during festivals-Paneer,gobi manchurian,Gajar ka halwa, Rasgullas, Aloo pakode, Masala rice, Naan and to cap it all - Paan!
There is a movie today in RAF(Recreational activities forum) - Bluffmaster.I have seen it but am going to see it again with friends - there is a different kind of maza.
All in all having a very good week end.
