1st half over!!!! 19/12/08

It's time for jolly times since christmas is here. Yesterday was quite a day for a change. Had my 3rd sem papers to finish. Short looks at the text and some "thunds" for help. I was hoping for a "good" not gr8 exam. So me and Ash were getting ready for a ,maybe final, tryst with LSD. Sat through the whole night, i.e till 10 o'clock looking at various questions, solving some and mostly katthi.

Got up real late next morning, i.e yesterday around 9:30, that too for a 2 'o'clock exam. Had brkfst and sat down for the final touches to the brain library. Time flew and b4 we knew, it was time 4 exam. Got to College, checked our hall and sat thinking how fast this would end. The papers were given out and we fell on it, furiously scribbling on the answer script. Suprise was awaiting us. There was visit by "THE SQUAD". So all of us who had chits were advised to throw them away. After a few minutes of hustling, all the stuff was gone, or was it, and the hall was quite again.

The Squad came and started checking. Bad luck fell on a friend of mine, who was caught cheating. He/she had scribbled some diagrams and notes on the back of the Hall ticket. What happened to her is still a mystery. Anyways, we continued the exam somehow. I was starting to feel bored. So started writing at express speed and got out by 2&1/2 hrs. Then the wait for Ash to get out.

Next I went up to our IT Lab premises for hot news. BTW, we had to submit our project report that day itself. That was handled mostly by Jazz for my team. U see only two of us for the team now, Me and Jazz. Helped him a bit with the report, not much since LSD was breathing down my neck. Anyhow, he managed to keep the report by the end of the day on Josna Ma'm's desk. So that ended well or was it since HOD had not yet verified it.

Came back home with Ash, Sheik(Abhishek) and Binu. Had tea on the way. Had some sleep and some kathi with the guys. Bibin was back in town, came yesterday night. Idduki guys got a house for the month. So we planned to go there after dinner. Soon it was loadshedding, so we got out for dinner. Had dinner and then Me & shakav went searching for topup card. Empty handed, we had to return. Next on the itinerary was going for NUS Carol party.

Jazz, Ash and Binu came down from Kani while Me & Shakav were waiting on the "Perfect" lane. They came and Shakav left for Kani while the rest moved to the College back, where we caught up with the Carol party. Then it was pure fun for the next hour or so. We were all dancing, singing and clapping to heart's content. Went to many homes and sang Christmas Rhymes. There was X'Mas Pappa for the kids too. On the way, Thampi joined us and soon we reached Neethu's house. There we sang, rested for a few minutes, had water and we left again after wishing them MERRY CHRISTMAS. On the way, we stopped by several houses and sang songs. Soon Jazz was feeling weak at legs and so we left for home after wishing the carol party goodbye.

On the way back, we got down at the "idduki" hostel. There Ash was present, as he and Binu had left early. After a few hours of fun, we left for Kani loaded with movies( 120 GB harddisk). Thomson was ready to leave for home and Binu for NUS. So they goodbbyed and left. Then after going thru the harddisk, I fell asleep.

There ends the 1st half of exam season, with intermission for the Christmas vacations.

Adrenaline Min 14/12/08

Night surfing till 3 in the morning leads to headache in the morning. I learn this the hard way. Got up at 10, freshened up and had breakfast at 11. Came back and checked out the new laptop in our possesion. Got friends of Achar(Asharaf) dropping in on us. Came over yesterday night from idduki. They have their main projects to complete. Can't believe how deep these guys are. Hats off to their friendship. Anyways, While checking out the lap, found new s/w and "muvies". After that,a long session of "Most Wanted" & "2 Thrones". Went out for lunch and then some time for house hunting for the guys. There's a huge batch of guys and gurls coming over soon. After coming back, another long session of "2 Thrones". Then time for Tea. "No Studies" for 2morow's CN and MC papers.
Next in line was Movie time. By the time we came back, Shakav(Bibin) was back from his tution for TTA. Cracked a few jokes and a jolly time after which we started the movie. A Mallu one (boring to say the least). Time flew and before we knew it was 9. Then out for dinner to Bakery. Mother's Kitchen, my favourite haunt back in PP days. Had a new combo for a change. Iddiappam and Beef Chilly. Bought Parcel for thambi.

Now for the reason why I wanted to blog. On the way back, we, Me and Jazz ( the twins), caught up a race b/w General Hospital and Kunnukuzhy. There was a Uncle, around 35-40 maybe, on a CT 100. He was in a hurry to get home, or was it. So he was accelerating like hell. Jazz wasn't gonna let go and so he too pushed the throttle. We carried on till NUS, by that time, the 150cc showed its muscle power. We were ahead by a small margin. By the turn to Kunnukuzhy, uncle got in front. He thought we'r going straight, so he says Good Nite b4 firing on after turning. We, especially me, were suprised at that gesture. Anyway, we turned too behind him. Yet he wasn't gonna let go of his lead. So we followed him, thinking he was gonna go till police quaters, i.e a race to the end. But alas, he turned far earlier and we were left wanting. Then to home, sweet home.

When we reached there, Bibin was waiting for Jazz to drop him to Station. The guy stays over for the weekend and then leaves for home. Anyways, he left for thrissur and I came upstairs. There another round of Most Wanted was waiting for me. But b4 that, I had to pen this one down. This wasn't supposed to happen till 12 in the night. In the meantime, since Sherry's lap was also here we sat down for a session of our old "Prison Break" series.

Time flew and b4 I know, it's time for sleep. So finally a piece of mind is out and now for sweet sleep.
ASta la Vista Baby....

A few (belated) updates to my Diary

Had some trouble logging onto the Net. Exams were top priority and so low surfing. Then there's always the absentmindness as a shadow. So I'm uploading some blog entries togather.

What a Day !!!!!! 12/12/08

Another day in my life went by at 100mph and there's no end to the rush of adrenaline till now. The day started like other ones, i.e. late rising, fast readying, superfast breakfast and mad rush to college. Today was supposed to be my Networks lab exam ( model you see). Reached college and what a sight !! Students , junior senior alike, runing around like ants in the campus. Straight to class after some sightseeing for the morning and started "preparation" for the exam. Last moment annoucement that the test was 3 tiered gave us a shock.

The theory 1st !!!!
What a paper ?? "WHAT" a paper ? I mean kya chalu sir, man. 4 studs in one row, each with seperate ques. paper to be filled up. The icing was the presence of 3 staff members in the class. Somehow , I managed to get the answers( maybe right) and then usual stuff(help only during exams). After that the next stage of war.

The Viva Voce 2nd ????
Again chalupanti by sir. 3 batches of examiners and so simultaneously 3 streams of studs on the hot seat. Simple ques. for them but hard for us to say. Then , I almost forgot, the never-ever ending wait to the hot seat. The heated discussions about previous ques. and hurrying thru the book in search of answers. Finally I reached the HOT SEAT. 1st ques. direct slow ball, went for a drive and finally reached the boundary. Next was routine, so a sharp forward defense( no fooling around). The Googly of all, no answer clean bowled. Next a bouncer, ducked but straight out of the field, not the ball but me. Finally the trials were about to end.

The Practical 3rd ^^^^ ( Oh GOD Help me)
Simple ques. Simple answer. Par life kahan easy hai !!! Kabhi system ko zukham, to kabhi mujhe paet mein dard. Somehow I managed through.

Finally my rat race gets better and I run for lunch. Had lunch with Thomachan and then back to college. Time for bird watching. On top of that, C exam( S3) was gonna start. So lots of cute juniors around. After that back to home, sweet home "KANIMANGALAM". Took a short nap, then got up, went with Shakav Bibin and Binu for tea. Came back, played some games on com. While having tea, came to know abt "Rab ne bana di Jodi". Started making plans for it. Asked Jazz if he was ready, Dude's always game for movie. But he had to go somewhere else. Finally by 6, he agreed but conditions. We had to go for IIFK ceremony.

Condition Zero
We reached by the start of ceremony. Jazz took some pics and we left for movie. On the way, we stopped to met a old friend of his. Time flew and by the time, we took notice it was around 7. We then left for theatre but the movie had started at 6. So we planned a detour. Had food from Sreedhar and then to Nishagandhi. Again just in time for the movie.

Laila's Birthday
A short documentry type. Boring throughout but a amazing climax. Had the audience give a standing ovation. Then we left for the theatre again. 2nd time's luck.

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi
The show was at 9:30, bought tickets( balcony full -- 1st day) and sat with expectations. Saw the trailer of "NEW YORK" in b/w. Nice one. Then the movie. Full of drama, masala, colour and melody. Okey Dokey Story with a conventional climax. Great song routines and SRK's overacting. Translator's job was on offer. So somehow, with lots of laughter( I laugh at any joke) and some tear wrenching sequences, the movie ends. Then Back to Home. Night time bring out the beast in any machine. Jazz was at his best. Zigzagging thru at 60 and above, we reach "safely".

Final curtain for the show ( BYE BYE)
Had a flash to update today in my blog. So sat down, typed thru the rest till here and finally IT'S OVER.
