‘Tis that time of the trimester again……the mid-terms…..and inspite of all my vows that I’d start slogging in from day 1 of this term, inspite of all the false promises that I give myself ,Inspite of all the preconceived notions that I make of seeing myself thoroughly “prepared” for these examinations, its a familiar story again….Just got the books issued a coupla days back and had a dekko at the syllabus yesterday ![]()
Sometimes has me wondering on how one can consistently break one’s promises that they’ve made to themselves….How “plans” go for a toss, how “strategy” takes a sound beating, how beating the strategy ipso facto can become a strategy……duh !! and no, me doesn’t belong to that lucky “last day preps-class tops” brigade…..rather, “last day preps-lucky to pass” is prolly what suits me best :p …… something that’s been real good past few days is, with my increased physical presence in the class (for no specific reason other than tryin to clear the attendance rule), I get to see LOADS of hilarious scenes…..ocassionally try to participate in class discussions…..with, u guessed it, disastrous results
and on a sidenote, the placement process here has officially started…..a company specializing in providing backend services to the finance sector is the first (hopefully, of many) to paratroop in…..keepin my thoughts crossed…..coz as that title sez, miStory repeats ![]()

Hmmm… a lil different is my case… had always studied for exams, had always fared well, had always got good marks, etc. Here, after my mid term grades, I stand wondering if it worth it to continue here… Will I ever be able to succeed… if I’ll really be able to atleast go back to Hyd and work… Trying to understand learning means more than grades… Struggling, dying and again surviving… Well… enough of it now… thats Bhars from A
Good luck for ur placements Subbu !!!
