And... one more post!

I really must change the pattern of naming my posts I've started developing... one more, and yet another, and another.. sheesh!

Ahem, it appears that *trumpets sound*, my CAM exam results are out. Well, almost, since our History paper, which I think went quite well, has been neglected in the hustle of other papers, and no-one finally got their History marks. The others... ah.

I need to start a new paragraph to describe them. Maths was devastated, English quite catastrophic, Chemistry measures 100 on the Richter scale.. total devastation, and Physics apparently good... atleast topped the class in physics. Need I give my marks? Let me start with what gives me some relief, Physics with 43/50, which makes me the topper in Physics. Don't get too many ideas, take a look at the other papers... Chemistry is 34/50, English 33/50 (a low scoring paper, I think I have the 5th highest or something in a class of 130), Maths is 42/50 (devastated, as I previously mentioned). The overall total puts me probably in the contention for the top 15, if I'm lucky in the top 10 out of 130. The top 10 guys get some good cash as a reward, which might allow me to go and splurge something on the excellent coffee I can get around here. But that's like a distant dream.. not sure. None of us know our exact standings, and History marks will be the deciding factor. I did the paper fine, but so were the rest. F**king!

So now that I have "wasted" a paragraph on CAM results, I have nothing much to say. Life is as such boring and hectic. Same old jobs to be done for getting the events up and running, except unlike the earlier times in school when I used to allot jobs to people and coordinate the event, here in college, as the first year, I'm given jobs to be done, and mostly the routine mundane stuff like making the brochures, banners, sticking them around the campus, getting more recruits, etc.... all stuff that event administrators love to give.. (I used to take sadistic pleasure in giving them to hapless juniors in my days.. hehehe). Talking of a full circle eh?!

The real interesting thing that I used to do, The Band, is currently not reachable, because all my "band-mates" have gone off since its TechWeek and therefore one week devoted to competitions without any classes or attendance. Infact, 90% of first years are off, and my hostel block is like a graveyard. I'm therefore going to get an experience of staying in a 6-bed room converted to a single bed for one whole week. Ah.. the whole room to my will! The hostel is really empty now, infact no-one screamed and threw dustbins from the 5th floor when the power went off, which proves that this hostel seriously needs more people.
Cya, more later..

reading through your entry made me walk down memory lane when i was still at school competing with the rest of the 250 students in my class. you know what, your marks are great. you probably are the perfectionist type - so much like me who ended 3rd in class (only the top 2 spots get cash rewards though) but walked home with the excellence in maths award. today, when i look back, everything that happened to me before fortified my belief that to sanctify one's daily work (like, studies for students) is our own personal legend. may you achieve your dreams! all the best.
