Finally!!!!!!!!

Finally its here!!!! My laptop was delivered to me today, just over 3 weeks after I ordered it. That also makes the time between the crash of my last system and the arrival of new one a full month. I had to complete projects and presentations in the last 2 weeks or so and that was the time i needed the laptop the most. Just before that, did my laptop of 4 years desert me. Usually a Dell laptop takes 7-10 days for delivery, but in my case it took much more than that. I could easily see Murphy's law coming into play. The wait was really painful. It seemed to me that the system was coming from their head office and hence the delay. It was strange though since Dell is a case study often referred to in B-Schools for their effective supply chain. Had my friends not shown mercy on me and allowed me to use their systems, I would have suffered from depression. Thanks my friends.
Other than that, we are having our end term exams. I don't know whether technically 2.5 months qualify for being called a term though. But one thing has changed in me. Now I enjoy exams. Like the new Surf Excel advertisement which says
Daag achche hote hain
, I say
Exams achche hote hain
. Its not that suddenly I have become very studious. Its just that the course load is not much. And since its exams, we don't have classes or those extracullicular crap. SO one can enjoy full(more than that, actually :)) sleep, both in the day as well as night. Add to it the luxury of Open Book Exams :):) .
Have my last exam tomorrow, so I'll just slip of to studies now...Bye n tc

A mechanical Life

I hope everyone has at some point seen a machine running. It just keeps on repeating the process, the flow is maintained throughout. It just keeps the pace until there is some bottleneck. Don't get me wrong..My intention is not to explain any technical term. Why i mention it is bcoz these days I find my life a lot like that..It has all become so mechanical..Get up in the morning, run to College,attend lectures, return back, read newspapers,articles,books and stuff, projects and all extra curricular crap..then go to bed...And after all this, do not get to sleep well. My sleep has always been a very important thing in my life. I have come this far in my life without compromising on my sleep. But now, it just can't happen. The situation is so grave that I couldn't sleep during the last weekend also :(...Sometimes, I pity myself - and regret the moment I decided for an MBA... There are so many things we ignore in our lives...But someone told me that we find time for things we really want to do...
So, enough is enough. TOday, I have decided to stop all work and sit with friends, chat with them and just have a break... No work today...Just like the good old days...ANd then I am gonna sleep ...without any alarm clock to bug me in the morning....It just reminds me of the rains..It has been raining here for the last few days(Thank God..)...There used to be days where I would just step out in the rains and enjoy it..But it hasn't happened this time. I just watch the rains from my window and miss them...But things are gonna change from this day..It has started raining and I need to go back to life...Wish you happy rains and ENJOYY!!!
