1). The Lecturers don't teach... The Students don't study... The only guy who benefits is the one who owns the 'Dhaba' next to the college.
2). Rules are made to be broken.
3). Promises are made to be broken.
4). Deadlines are made to be extended... ALWAYS!
5). Guys always think the chics in the next college are more beautiful.
6). The geeks are the most pampered lot during the internal exams.
7). The lab assistants are the most respected people (During the lab exams i.e)
8). The watchmen are the people who are bribed the most.
9). The HOD is the person most respected! (Heights of sycophancy here :D)
10). The Principal is the person who is abused and insulted the most! (Behind his back... Obviously!)
11). Dropping subjects is 'Cool' (Arey yaar... Drop the idea of dropping subjects plz).
12). There is always a lecturer in the college who can't speak proper 'English'.
13). Night-out is the second most important tool to ace the exams.
14). The most important tool... the Bhramastra... is the 'Chit' in which the words can only be understood by the person who wrote them (in most of the cases i.e)
15). The freshers are the most sought after people in the college... Be it in the canteen, during the 'free' periods or for completing the records, assignments.
16). The second-years are the ones with the 'I am the don-of-the-college' feeling.
17). The third-years are the ones with the 'So-many-backlogs' feeling and the poor souls get down to studying after bossing around in the college for so long. But the fun still continues.
18). The fourth-years have no connection with the college whatsoever... With no interest in ragging, pulling each other's legs, the b'day parties, the b'day bumps which they enjoyed so much all these years till now. All they want is a good placement and a '1st-class' tag attached to their resume.
19). The first three years are spent in cursing the college, the people there, and the system.
20). But towards the end of the fourth year, people tend to feel nostalgic about the pure unadulterated fun they had for 4 years. The very system they disliked, the very canteen they cursed, the time that they spent there, the b'day bumps they suffered... All these become the best days of their lives...
random thots that come up in my head...most of them are typed without drafts...so please excuse the typos!!!

Creative low
I have hit a creative low. An official low point where there is a desperate urge to write but no topic good enuf. Loads happening in my life but when I sit in front of the laptop with blogger open in front of me I am hitting a blank. There is a certain pressure to write about something that is not trite and also something that is funny and captivates you and makes you relate to it. Phew!! what pressure on a house wife!!!!
Anyways, I want to bless my cousin another one to get married later this week. Pretty much covers the whole bunch. Hard for me to believe it but a whole generation just grew up. The images that run thru my head are of us all lining up in front of tatagaru to take our muti-vitamins. Or M standing behind tatagaru and me stuck in front of tatagaru listening to some lecture and he running around making fun of me. Or M and me sitting on top of the tank trying to identify stars. Or M and me writing a letter to M telling him to stop bullying his little sisters and dropping it in the mail!!! Not the one year that I spent in Hyd but the childhood memories stick. And we all just grew up!!!! God Bless her and the new life that she is about to embark on.
IF you wondering what the hell there are soo many M's in the family. Well our parents made some amazing freaky co-incidence decision to name us all with the letter M.
Well I saw the movie that was almost 2 years in the making.It was apparently the most expensive movie made and yadda yadda. And for three hours the Umerican Desi's left all their dignified Umerican-ness and yelled and screamed and threw paper in the air and generally had a ball. Yead the movie was Sivaji.Like my better half says " you can feel Talaivar's screen presence". I say" Yeah if he is on the screen for pretty much most of the movie you cant miss him"!!! Vivek did a great job according to me. He looks good and acted hilarious.
We are at the end of the our lease agreement so we are house hunting and someone called me Matthews. I have been called a lot of things in life but never been called Matthews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The course I wanted to take up in summer was cancelled. CANCELLED!! Now why would they do that. I wanted to do it real bad.
Wow!!! I managed to get out a post. And I thot I was at a creative low. Nothing hilarious but definitely trite. Well maybe about the M part of our family. And Oh Oh Oh I am cooking interesting things and they are tasting nice.
God bless and Wish that wonderful cousin of mine a Happy Married Life.
