It’s been a pretty long hiatus since my last post and now that i couldn’t stand this phase of dormancy anymore , I am back!

As a justification (which i don’t think is needed :P) , i’ll like to mention what kept me inactive all this while . Well , to be brief  , the writer in me (which arouses once in a while  :P ) had been overpowered by the fun loving college girl in me , having the TIME OF HER LIFE at her first college fest! (yippee!!) And , now , the writer in me and the fun loving college girl in me are having a conflict as to who’ll be the ruler …so the wise girl in me has intervened and made them compromise . So , the solution is that the writer in me will now write about the experiences that the fun loving girl in me had during this fest .

If you didn’t  understand what i said above , never mind , it’s OK …BUT… if you understood it , i want to ask you ”are you OK??” ( :P ) LMAO! So , here are the words….

For those of you who do not know … first DCE had ENGIFEST – the cultural fest with a plethora of  events , to say the least . There were music competitions , street dancing , bhangra competition , debate competitions and what not on the platter!!! Followed by this was the TECHFEST where we saw people from various institutions from allover India come over to prove their mettle in various technical fields like gaming , robotics , programming e.t.c Read the rest of this entry »

A Moment of ‘ETERNAL BLISS’ ……….is when?????????

……..NO NO NO NO!!! You are probably missing out on something more basic , yet important!

Do you remember doing exercises like “fill in the blanks” in your English classes? Well, i do . And particularly one such exercise that i am going to talk about , here.

It was a fine Monday morning (well, i don’t remember the day but since even you don’t know , i can call it just any day !!) . The morning assembly had just got over and we were all , as was the custom , sitting in our places in utter silence waiting for the teacher to come………………………………what?????…………………………just kidding man!!!! We are the 21st century students , is something like that even close to possible?

Anyway , so it was supposed to be an English class , taken by Mrs. Elizabeth Chacko . Talking of Mrs. Elizabeth Chacko , a very experienced and a very very boring teacher who didn’t indulge in any kind of ‘out of the course’ discussions , ‘murmured’ her lecture to a class of 40+ students , could dare to think that we would ‘actually’ do an English homework (imagine!!!!) and taught lessons in the most monotonous manner possible (YAWNNN!!!!!!!) That day , we were going to do the English workbook , the most boring part of English classes, i guess, comprising of exercises like ‘fill in the blanks’ , ‘make sentences’ ,’choose the correct answer’ and all !!!!! (yawn yawn yawn!)

Now , here was an exercise that Mrs.Chacko asked us to do in 10 minutes. But ,as was customary in her class , we spent the entire period chatting and simultaneously shouting out to her  ”miss, we haven’t yet completed!!!!…..just 5 more minutes!! “(lolzz!) Finally, when just 5 minutes were left for the bell to ring she asked one of us to read out what we had written …and that ‘one’ was…me!!!!

Nothing to panick about ………as i had done it fully !!! [ Well , i admit , i loved doing such things if they made us think over !] It was a fill in the blanks exercise and one of the blanks that she didn’t like the way i had filled in was this -

If i were god i would _________________________________

and i had written : If i  were god i would destroy the whole world. and she suddenly showed an “expression” (not very typical of her you see  …to show any kind of expression!!)  …….she said “what , what did you say , just repeat it!”……. i repeated but didn’t explain it , her expressions were weird enough to refrain me from saying anything more. Then she said “but why do you say so”………….. Read the rest of this entry »
