The weather today made me feel like I was back in Bombay. It poured throughout the evening so much so that the Palaash courtyard and badminton court were flooded. Apparently in some parts of the city the water levels were waist high.
The day began on a great note- got to know that I made it to the junior committee of Team Interface!! Its a good feeling , being a part of a committee on campus, didn't make me feel too sleepy during the morning lectures. :D Had only two lectures in the morning, so headed to ISCON mall in the afternoon with friends. Azhar Bhai's rick with the heavy duty music system and awesome song collection added to the fun. We had to be back on campus by 3 for a QT tutorial so didn't have much time to have lunch anywhere. So we packed burgers from McDonalds and had it during the ride back to college.
The sports season at MICA kicked off (pun intended) with a football match between PGP1 and PGP2. Cheering from the sidelines was fun. Few of us found a vantage point on the roof of the admin block which overlooks the football field. The icing on the cake was PGP1 winning 3-0 :-)
Had nothing to do the in the night so continued watching South Park. I like this feeling of being jobless once in a while. Will also make the most of it and go to sleep early (read as 1230 a.m)

Day 27 - 23rd July 2010
It took 27 days for me to finally put my laptop to some good use - started watching South Park again :-) Reminds me of my engineering days when South Park and Simpsons were my staple diet and that was more than 3 years back(damn I feel old!). Have to go through the common share here which has lots of movies and sitcoms.
Had a pretty eventful couple of hours in the morning. We had a marketing lecture first up and the other section had eco. During the marketing lecture we started getting messages from the other section that they had a test! So most of us tried to read up as much of eco as we could in the 15 min break between the two lectures. Then we got to know that there was no test in the other section because there weren't any answer sheets available, however our joy was short lived when we saw the prof. entering our class with answer sheets. He said that the test would be conducted towards the end of the class, so some people in class came up with the idea of doing some major DCP (desperate class participation) so that there would be no time left for the test. I,unfortunately could not contribute to the cause as I had absolutely no idea what doubt(s) to ask! It seemed to have worked and there was no time left for the test, but I'm pretty sure the prof. had no intentions of conducting the test in our section anyways, he was having some good fun at our expense :-D
The afternoon session was on communication theory which was on imperialism and the media's role in propagating it. This was followed by a movie based on a true story that took place during the civil war in El Salvador - innocent voices. A brilliant movie, the 11 year old kid has done an amazing job.
Slept for an hour in the evening, which I don't want to do from now on, makes me feel really groggy and ruins the evening, takes at least an hour to get back to normal. Did absolute tp throughout the evening and night. Accompanied a friend to Chota for a passive smoke, watched South Park, went to MICAfe for ice cream after dinner and then played a little badminton after that. Came back to my room and continued watching South Park.
It's 130 now, will watch another couple of episodes before calling it a day, have a 9 o'clock lecture again tomorrow.
