Our first sessionals got over on thursday and I'm back to the realisation that this place is actually boring, however much I may try to like it!
So we hit the city today; did some exploring actually, and discovered this place has some cool stores if nothing else (though those stores remain empty most of the time!!).
Final verdict: this place does have some places where it is possible to shop but shopping does not happen to be one of my preferred past-times, so that discovery doesn't make this place any better for me.
Yet, had fun today. And most important of all, got back in time with nobody blocking the national highway today! So no apologosing for having fun! ;)
Child of Boredom!!!

Show time!!
I had one hell of a day today.
Woke up after nine, yet managed to get some breakfast at the mess! Then back to my room, my roomie and me make coffee and then settle down to study - something totally bizarre.
And then, just the moment I realise we are doing something very unusual, one of my friends bursts in and calls us to meet her sister. We go to meet her, she says - lets go to city, we look at each other for a moment and then, we scream 'Lets Go!!' and burst out laughing!! and thus starts my day.
We watched this new movie called 'Bachna ae haseeno' and I actually enjoyed myself more than I liked the movie for it was totally crazy to go like day two days before our first sessionals! Also, the movie theatre was a big surprise; it wasn't bad at all, atleast much better than what we'd heard! Then, lunch at the mall and back to the bus stop - that's where the real adventure began.
NH-17 (that's where our college is) was closed due to some celebrations and the bus had to take a detour - a narrow and steep road; all the vehicles were lined up for they were passing every crossing one at a time, and we were stranded at the same spot for 90 minutes!
So although we'd started from the city well in time, we reached 30 minutes after the curfew. And we had to write an apology letter because some people, the local people, were celebrating a festival in the middle of a national highway!! No comments on this one, just hope people who read this will realise the irony of it all!

Friday morning blues...
Its Friday, my favorite day of the week('course, only for its the last!)
Wake up late, miss breakfast, trek all the way up to class in the lousy sun(yeah early morning sun in NITC in August - something unimaginable after my first year here!) and then, the 8 o'clock class gets canceled!! Every time I'm late and miss breakfast, class' just got to be canceled - another of Mr.Murphy's laws I guess!!
So here I am at the main CC, writing this post (I came here for the air-conditioning and not really to write a post, just in case you've been wondering!).
So, its a whole month into semester 3, the first sessionals next week (and hence the 'blues' on my favorite day of the week!). Time flew by so fast, we're still settling into the new year, like we rearranged our room yesterday (and a lot of people have come into our room since and decided they entered the wrong room!) and the first sessionals are already here! I feel like I know zilch, but I hopefully will put that feeling away by the end of this weekend.
Anyways its time for the next class now so I had better get going. Have a nice day! ;)

Campus trek?
Today one of our classes got delayed by two hours and my friend and I didn't wanna walk all the way back to our hostel and back so we just got out of the back gate and went wandering around. We like went along this path that went uphill and after like fifteen minutes maybe, we realised we'd reached one of the hill-tops in our campus! Twas a pretty nice view from up there; and we could hear continuous blasts somewhere, so we peered down one side and there was this quarry down there and there were people working there and it was a pretty nice sight.
It was real fun to like start walking just like that and reach such a pretty place. And all that walking kept me awake in class! ;)

DJ nite
Tonight was DJ nite and surprisingly it was pretty good! I was expecting it to be something like the musical nights but I must say, it was way better: things are really getting better in college this year..

Two weeks into...
Another week's gone by; time sure goes by fast @ NITC - a saying we'd all heard when we'd first come to this college, now we know what it really means. So much to do, so many things to do, you never realise how week after week flies by.
The only time time does come to a standstill is the end sems; when we're like just two weeks away from home, time just seems to freeze!
Anyways its a long way to end sems right now; everyone's still settling into the new semester; heard there's a DJ nite coming up next week but setting all that aside - I really really hope I get things right this time at college!

Ah!! Weekend at last!
Its friday! Its been one long hell o0f a week; so many classes, so many many classes; and yet, I have been kind of enjoying college and loving college.
Its been a tiring week actually; there's so much of shuffling to do in between the classes - in zero time and up and down the stairs (we live on the western ghats!). But college finally feels like college now (I know I'm probably saying this for the millionth time but seriously, I never imagined college this way). My classmates literally ran out of the class when the last one got over!!
So its been a busy week and it went by so fast we never realised!
And, this weekend's 'movie weekend'; it'l' be our first so stay tuned - I'll be posting soon about it!
