Lately i have noticed a certain grimness entering my classmates. So its the time of the year ( it comes thrice -- due to trimester) when you realise that "there ARE only (X) days left before we i start emptying my Ball Point Pen's Ink. ( At times i wonder the pen might be feeling so lonely, so unused with a guy like me )
The feeling :
Just keep going, don't break down now, you are mortgaging your body with lack of sleep and too much effort, but keep going, you only have a little bit left, and then you can sleep kind of thing. Does that sound familiar?
Yes it does.
so finally its the time of the year when you will be caught with
1) making the last ditch effort( chits, asking your friend to write the test on behalf of you--that again depends if he himself hasn't screwed his)( YES, It works in MPSTME) to get a good score in the 2nd test, coz u screwed/missed/bunked the 1st one
2) you will be finishing the assignment which ought to be submitted a month ago, but outta your laziness u didn't care about it
3) or either you would be spending sleepless nights making presentation for some subject, as your professor( a narcissist) suddenly had some divine intervention and decided to have the last few chapters as a self study.
4)there is also a chance THAT YOU WOULD BE PESTERING YOUR CR/SR TO further postpone the submissions/tests and giving that poor chap a hard time in dealing with the teachers.
5) Ahh how can i forget the submissions.Well they are called Practicals.But what we finally do is we take pieces of paper, A Pen( Ideally you should use two coloured pens--- Black for the headings, and blue for the internal content)and a pencil ( if u dont care about diagrams--lets be oblivious to that part ).PRACTICALS HAVE MORE THEORY THAN THEORY ITSELF.
I can offer a Ticket to the latest Movie to anyone who proves that more ink was consumed while taking notes in class than in writing practicals.
See it proves my point.
6) And in the meanwhile some Great Students Like Me, Who work on the principles of Rockets ( Yes we work only when our ass is on fire ) recall its the end of a trimester. Another Three Months Spent in Doing Nothing.
7) So what else happens during these times to the Avearge JOE in the class
a) He's always worried that someone submitting everything before time and the prof would further lessen his already neagtive grades due to the delay on his part.
b) He's worried that some another student would have gone on a rapport building excercise with the prof(jus before the exams) and would have some imp ques or topics marked which again would not be relayed to the class.( competing for GPA)
8) Suddenly the library is full of students, completing assignments, journals, making presentations.
You Play musical chairs in the library( for lack of chairs).
Bags are Piled up outside and u better be good at treasure hunt to find yours.
9)Xerox --- Nobel Prize for Peace Should be given to the guy who made this wonder. Peace because he has done so much to bring repose and serenity to the life of the students. Life would have been so Difficult Without Xerox. Imagine notes, Books, Practicals.
10)Sleep Deprivation will be high at this time. Also Your Mind Wanders The Most In the Times Of the Exam.
The Laws Of Exam:
a) The probability of a the prettiest girl sitting besides you in library is the highest when you have the toughest exam next day.
b) The probability of you waking up at 5.00 am to complete your half unfinished portion is almost like expecting a Jet to Land on the ROCKY MOUNTAINS.
c) The probability of the compulsory question being the one you studied is 50 percent.
d) The probability of the an easy invigilator coming to your Exam Room Is Less than the probability Of Someone Monstrorous.
e) The Probability of SomeOne asking a supplementary Before You and You Left Wondering ( HOW ???) is very very high.
f) The Probability Of the You Not Getting a Rickshaw, Lift Not Working, Trains Getting Late also increases drastically during the days of examinations.
g) The Probability Of THe Person Coming For an Exam Without Bathing is On the Higher Sides If They Come From a Certain Place.( Read Between The Lines)
h) The Probability Of The Average Loser (The Median Student) troubling, whispering you for the question you dont know is at its all time high.
i) The Most Sought After Book In The Library Will Be Gone Long Back( WAKE UP SID).
j) The probability of your High School Crush or College Crush Coming Online On the day of exam is 50% ( Again depends if you have a geeky crush or a non- geeky crush, a localite or non-localite) . So start Studying And Dont Wait In Anticipation.
K) THE MOST IMPORTANT LAW: NEXT TIME SE SAB KUCH PEHLE SE KAROONGA.
