Day 24 - 20th July 2010

The day after a rest day is so difficult to get through. Moreover had a full day of lectures today, 9 to 5! Somehow managed to stay awake during the marketing and ID lectures. The marketing class had a discussion on marketing research and the different methodologies involved to extract/interpret data from potential consumers. ID dealt with motivation and we were introduced to our first theory in this subject. That was followed by 2 hours of communication theory, the prof.wasn't in his element today, he himself admitted it, so the session wasn't too captivating either.After lunch had a tutorial on marketing, we were expected to read a case,which no one did because of the fact that we got to know about it during lunch :-P So instead of that we were broken into groups and had to come up marketing plans for different organic products - foodstuff, paint,cosmetics and clothing. Turned out to be a free for all with each group trying to find out mistakes in the other group's plan, was kinda fun,it came to a point where the prof. had to remind us that we were still in a classroom :D

In the evening went for a walk around campus, want to start playing tennis again but don't know when its going to happen. Went to the library to study a bit of eco in the library but halfway through got a call from a friend who had got a task in one of his committee interviews, he had to clear 10 rooms in 15 mins and mine was one of them. The room was stripped bare with everything being dumped in the cupboard. It looked like how I remember it from the first day. But he also took it upon himself to set things back in order.

Post dinner had the elections for Sports Committee at MICA (SCAM). Similar to the PlaceComm
and MCSA procedures - candidates give a speech followed by election/selection. Got done with that by around midnight, nothing much to do after that so calling it a day!
