It's about time !

Yayy!! another semester is about to end. I'm just one short of giving my final exams, phew! I've had such an insane and inhumane date sheet this time, 5 papers back to back within a span of 20 hours each. And the worst part, I've a 5 day break for my last exam XD. So my routine was pretty much about study, food and sleep( in that order). This was not particularly new to me because we are used to such stuff but the intensity was too much this time. And whatever happened to my resolution of ' I shall study this thoroughly for end sem. has been put to rest. How can you even possibly imagine to use your brain and look for some logic and reasoning for the poor last and second last subjects!! May they vanish away in peace -_-

Apart from that, it has been such an eventful sem. I met loads of new people and enjoyed their company a lot, probably because of the same interests and likes (the foremost reason we got close). These very people brought a sense of stability, which was missing for sometime. And this makes me say that though we are in constant touch of each other via social networks and stuff; we should all know the difference between the people who are really concerned and those who have nothing else to say when you meet them in person. It's just a week or so before I pack my bags once again to go for home, this time for a longer period (training sem ahead). I have had an every bit of experience at this hostel this year and as all good things come to an end I too have an inevitable task of vacating my room, study corner and MY SPACE of 1 year.

# And a very common message these days I get to see while accessing anything on net -
“This is a message from the IT Department. This site will remain inaccessible during exam period. It is listed as a site within the category Student Filter.” Seriously, have they not heard about proxy servers or what :D :D

A little snippet~

It takes one 'teacher' to make you fall in love with a subject, to make you appreciate the techniques involved, to make you believe that it can be done, to make you see beyond the textbook, to make you follow that perhaps for the rest of your life OR make it extremely dreadful, difficult and boring for you till eternity. Ever since I had come here for my higher education, we have had to move a lot between semesters because my course demanded that from me. In the past 4 semesters I have been under 3 different Universities in 2 countries and had professors from a lot of different departments. While this has been a great learning opportunity, which has helped me discover more about the specific fields of study, there has been an absence of a ‘Mentor’ like figure. However, during my internship last year in Lyon, I happened to meet Professor LD who has since then been by my side, replying to my emails, even now when I am not working with him anymore. Although he doesn’t interf...

Stay Put

It has been a crazy month now and I do not see it ending anytime soon (personally). What started off as a regular rather dull month because of the semester ending and many of us looking to fly back home for semester vacation or renew room contracts or decide the future course of action in terms of academia here in Freiburg, everything has suddenly come to a halt and how.  I and my group of friends decided to stop meeting outside initially during the 1st week of march after seeing and listening to the situation in Italy, to gradually meeting indoors and making sure the first thing we did was wash hands and face thoroughly and not touching anything in trams by 2nd week and having to stay indoors by the end of 2nd week up till now where we are just texting daily to the point of discussing even minute details such as spotting a pimple on the chin to celebrating grand events like birthdays over calls.  It is such an unsettling feeling of not knowing what will happen next ...

What a Day it has been !!

  A s I sit here  on my bed , soaking up the free Wi-Fi  at hostel, eating all that I can possibly find in my room and listening to the DJ being played outside(diwali night),  I’m reflecting on how happy I am. B USY , but happy!  The day started as  usual   with a class at 8 am in the morning( I don't sulk anymore) because 8am classes are now a part of my daily routine. There isn't a day this semester that doesn't starts at 8. The next class was cancelled so I thought to make the most out of it, instead of ideally sitting in the sun or roaming in the college  corridors  I decided to come back to hostel so that I could give the diyas to my hostel manager, for we had a function tonight, which we thought of providing under ENACTUS(  non profit org. and a community of students, leaders & thereby using the power of entrepreneurial action to transform lives and shape a more sustainable world), that would be  officially  st...
