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
