Worst Summer of My Life

Just few hours before i return to Guwahati, as i look back now at the three months in the summer of 2010 all i can say to sum it up in one word is "Disastrous".

Little that i knew when i left Guwahati in May that i was heading for the worst summer till date......i would have rather stayed there or gone somewhere else.......Why the hell did i come here!! ??

Here we go,

*18th May,2010: I got my 4th sem results,the lowest ever S.P.I. for me 6.68...which took my C.P.I. down to 7.29,i thought more bad news can't be there.

*24th May,2010: Slammed!! my laptop's lid in anger which later cost me 6000 bucks to fix the lcd and corrupted 100 gb of my hard disk.

*3rd June,2010:My optical mouse which had been with me for two years breathed it's last.

*24th June,2010:My internship at NALCO got cancelled bcoz the person who was to supervise my project his father died n he went out of station for weeks.....so i had to do a makeshift intern at my father's bank.

*8th July,2010:My 1 TB external disk started showing I/O error n data recovery would have cost me thousands so i had to let go of 570 GB of my movies collection n all other data on it.I was heartbroken.

*19th July,2010:My Laptop got infected with a deadly virus...n i had to format it losing all and the only data i had left with me.

*23rd July,2010:My Laptop's battery has started showing some problem,it won't charge when system is on but charges itself when the laptop is off.

There were very few high points for me during this summer lyk my school reunion,whenever i used to hangout with my friends and went to see movies (Lamhaa was one of them!!) or go play pool..........at times i felt like killing myself and let go of the pain of constant disappointments.

I so dearly hope like i have never hoped before that this coming sem at IIT will cheer me up and show me some good times....I really need it... :)

The 4th Sem

Today,when i woke up after a good afternoon nap i got a amazing feeling in my head...it felt so light......Yes! the endsems were over and so was my sophomore year at IITG .I'm now halfway through my journey at IIT...which has been a wonderful experience till now,with moments that will last the length of time.It felt so good,waking up realising that i don't have to mug now continuosly for 12-13 hours bearing immense pressure.......this past week has taken a toll on my body and mind...sleeping hardly for 3-4 hours daily.Then there is the excitement of going back HOME...the place we all wanna be.This sem at IITG has rather been surprising for me basically on academic levels....my S.P.I. is goin down for sizzle...baby!!
Talking about other remarkable events of this sem....one person stands out in my mind and that is Dharmesh Yelande(D Sir as we call him).....he was a contestant on Zee Tv's show Dance India Dance..but man can he dance...he simply blew me away and further enhanced my interest in dance.I was heartbroken when he didn't win (Curse you Shakti!!),but still a big fan of D Sir.This year's Alcheringa was also off the hook..with performances by Shankar Ehsaan Loy,Eluveitie n Vir Das etc.This sem my entertainment focus shifted from movies to soaps.....i watched a loads of dem.....including classics like LOST,Prison Break,Grey's Anatomy and bone-tickling comedy like According to Jim.My efforts for seeking a foreign internship went in vain.....as i gave up hope early....n finally settled for doing an internship in U.B.I. at home.
As far as my subjects go,Probability and Real 'Anal'-ysis were the toughest and expecting the lowest grades in dem.
Now, i have so much to look upto,,,,,my junior year at IIT,the 5th sem will be full of ups and downs as CS guyzz are already prepared to rape us.Hoping to get my passport done in the summer and a good time at home...enjoying wid my friends the summer heat of Orissa err correction "Odisa" yeah that's what they are calling it now.Finally, i would like mention Anurag Panwar..who has been with me throughout the sem and is a true and dear friend.Hoping to raise my C.P.I. in coming sems so that i can get a job......!! :)

See ya next sem...until then adios! astala vistaa baby!!
