A week of wild partying, pub hopping and late night revelry comes to an end…. Who am I kidding???

Ok let me try again. A week of serious preparation for GRE- burning the midnight oil, reviewing word lists, going around muttering and sighing ‘perspicacity, ‘expostulation’, ’contumacious’ to myself at mealtimes prompting everyone else at the table to check the gas for leaks- comes to an end. Nope. Not working.

Alright a week of sheer languor, late nights and later mornings, life-saving HBO, sloppy romance novels, omnipresent omnipotent omniscient internet, God’s gift to mankind- Satyam Cinemas, phone calls discussing ‘how not to waste time’, a little alanjifying 4 sponsors (for our coll culturals) and hours spent doing absolutely nothing at all comes to an end. Hmmm….sounds right.

The only ‘student unrest’ I’ve noticed in the last one very eventful week is the general rush at Satyam Cinema’s ticket counters.

Thank you God for the fact that I, being on this side of the Palk Strait, am celebrating the conclusion of a week well-squandered, instead of running for my life like several of those stuck on the other side.
