Outside my window!!

When we moved into our current room two years ago, this is what you'd see if you looked outside the window - a lovely sight. Barely any sunshine could get through all this foliage; felt like we were living right in the jungle!  

Soon however, the trees within the LH campus were brought down. That made me really angry at first but soon it was fine.
There was some problem with our fan and they took it away for almost the entire semester. But it was never that hot, we never needed to sleep in another room.



Beginning of this year (2010), they came up with the plan for a new hostel for the gals (something they should have done a long long time ago for there is a serious lack of space in here). And this is the transition that has take place in the last month.



By last week, all that could be seen was barren red soil. And the glare of the sun was so intense even through the tinted glass that the blinds had to be kept down from as early as eight in the morning till atleast five in the evening.


And tell you what, that was a luxury. For this is what it looks like outside my window now...

End of a ...

Tired, exhausted, dehydrated yet sweating profusely, hair matted with sweat, he looked up and screamed over the hum of the roaring machine - "1407".
I dropped my (pink barbie princesses) pencil and my lab record and raised my hands in victory, big grin on my face :D And he gave a tired smile.
Thw was our last reading and we had finally conquered Machines Lab, which always looks more like a garage to me!!

And I wondered, am I supposed to feel sad about this getting over?
Coz as far as the trend goes, whenever something comes to an end, people lament and say good things about it, like how much fun and how amazing it was and how much they're gonna miss it, though the world knows how much they hated it when that thing used to be (alive or on, whatever!)

So I was just wondering, what nice thing can I say about this lab?
Did I have a nice time here? Certainly a better time than electronics lab!
And the best part, I never fainted in this lab ;)
Plus we had a really nice water cooler, and I could waste up to ten minutes under the pretext of feeling thirsty. I'm sure others managed more!!

Hmm, I looked behind our table. There were all these huge machines we had never even heard of. I recognized a lathe machine and this weird and huge drilling machine.
Am I curious about them? Am I gonna regret never having to I dunno, getting to look at those big machines?

Naaah! I'm done here. :D
Nothing to miss here. Will be back in a few weeks for the test though, but for now, the 'garage' looks gray and gloomy. Just like a garage!!

Google Fantasies

 
I realised today, I'm turning into a Google mania of sorts, and that too when I don't even like Google, I mean it's not allowed for I always wanted to end up in Microsoft though that may never happen now and anyways I use Bing most of the time; but all day, I find myself thinking, when the net comes at 2, 'I'm gonna google this and I'm gonna google that' though by the time it's 2, I forget what I had thought about and even if I do remember, I bing it!
But the issue isn't Google or Bing, the issue is since the realization dawned on me, I've been wondering if I'm getting closer to the definition of a freak!
The problem isn't with being a freak, there should be something worth (my definition and notions of worth) being a freak, and Google or even Bing for that matter just ain't those kinda things :P

Fall @ Rajpath


Happens a little later than the rest of the country but all the same, better later than never - it's one of the few things I look forward to each year, also this signifies the beginning of two months of killing heat :(
So it's already happening for this year and I dunno about the rest of the campus but disaster's already struck LH with our well going dry, heaven knows what's in store for us this year!!
Anyways, for now, check out the campus with whatever I could manage with my phone camera.
Special thanks to Nokia, for making an awesome phone with a pretty good camera (so good that you can still get pictures like these after I damaged the lens right in first semester!)
and Inos for getting me hooked to Picasa :)
