" I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by."
- Douglas Adams
Planned studying. Always believe(d) in it. If you know me well enough, you would know I keep a diary for planning out studying ops and "motivational quotes"(Yeah, that's me, all the peripheral, unnecessary BS and not the actual studying). The quote above should also tell you that this special planning book has got "Don't Panic" in large friendly letters and I named it The Hitchhiker's Guide to Planning. Cool, huh? Three end sem exams have whooshed by. Three exams whose studying deadlines were not met. Three more to go, Dayyym...
The 'cool' (?) colleges are known for their very relaxed norms regarding general students' day and night lives. Dad always used to brag about how he used to go college in shorts. In that way, BITS is the coolest college around. I dare you to find another college which has an exclusive All Night Canteen for students to blow cash over(It's open till 3:30 AM). But there is a general feeling that the rules have been tightened up a notch. Only Jeans and full pants are allowed in the Lecture complex and the IPC these days(Totally justifiable, there is a censored reason behind that!). I myself, while walking from one class to another, was just whistling "Little bird". Just whistling. In the corridors. A haggard old man, complete with moustache(Why does the text editor report a spelling mistake?) and an all knowing smile(He could have tattooed "Bah, college students..." on his forehead) says, "Caaleje hai bhai, Caaleje... "
And your point is?
Another completely random stream of thoughts. Obama killed Osama -> Global markets rose in unison -> Gold prices also rose -> An incident which comes to my mind.
I was ten or twelve then. We had gone to Tanishq 'cos mom's jewelry fixation center in her brain had suddenly gotten activated. I, still in the inquisitive stage, asked the guy why Platinum was costlier than Gold. While returning back, my dad explained, "He said Platinum is rarer than Gold, that's why. Though Platinum is 20 times rarer than Gold, yet it is only around 1.2 times costlier. So the only way Platinum prices(and therefore it's value) can go are - up. It's a stupid argument. But unfortunately, I've fallen for it."
Aww...
