Just after the 2 days of submission of final project in FRA, our end-term exams started.
Till then, I had a bad opinion on Remedial classes conducted before the term exams. But just a day before the exam I attended Remedial classes on Finance and I found it very useful. It gave me all the pre-reading required for the exam. I prepared for each and every topic. I taught anurag few topics. More importantly I slept for 6 hours before the exam. I felt active during the exam. But the point is - " The question paper was very tough". There were 8 questions. Out of which I knew 5 perfectly. I attempted the rest and it was like "trying to throw a stone on the dog in the dark with lights turned off". The result can be either I die or The dog will. I am getting tensed when ever I hear the word "results".
With all the sadness resting on my face I came back to my room and started preparing for the next exam. It was about Law. (Legal aspects in mgmt). It was all about by-hearting. But few points are interesting. I dint feel like reading at all for that subject. The exam was in the afternoon and hence, I got some time to sleep :). This time I slept for 7 hours :). It was very good effort :). Really, It gives such a good feeling to sleep before the exams. Some how I went to the exam hall at 1.50.12 seconds. This time I am lucky as no one noticed me otherwise I would have waited for atleast 15 mins outside. We have to be in the exam hall atleast 10 minutes before. Isaac failed to come and he was asked to stay back for 15 minutes and hence he lost 15 minutes valuable time :(. Anyways he might have written well. My efforts in the answer sheet was not bad. And at the same time it was not good. The questions were too subtle to understand.
ME(Economics) was the crucial exam of all. I had a very low score in quizzes and mid term exam. I had no other go. But I am sure of not getting an F in this subject. I again went for remedials. This class was also useful. I prepared very hard for this exam. I just had 4 hours of sleep. The question paper was easy as per my friends but I felt a bit tough :(. I dont know why. Anyways.. I attempted 3 questions perfectly and the rest 2 was again like "throwing the stone on a dog in the dark". Anurag was so happy after the exam. He wrote very well. I saw a smile on his face after three days.
After ME exam we had one day holiday. What can I say about this day. I dint open the book at all because I got good marks in the pre mid-term. I crossed the "D" grade region and hence I was tension free. I took so much rest. Slept and slept till I dint feel like sleeping. And more over an excitement of going home was increasing day by day. Because its just two days from then to go to home.
I started reading for the QAM (quantitative) exam from midnight(the day before). I then found out that a lot of syllabus needs to be covered. I somehow completed. I taught anurag few fundas. I wrote okayish. I sat by the side of Nishitha during the exam. I heard that she is good at studies and she proved it on that day. She was using scale for drawing the tables and also eraser (I dont remember exactly). She was writing perfectly. And my answer sheet cannot stand by the side of her. I dint use scale. The worst thing was I forgot calculator. I did so many calculations manually :(. Somehow I completed the exam. Isaac dint do well in this exam.
The last exam was an open book exam. It was about microsoft excel. I dint open the book at all till midnight. I was in the mood of going home. And Exam time has come.
Though it was an open book exam, we were suppose to search two books for the answers.
And each book had around 400 pages :((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((.
Somehow I completed the exam. It was a open book exam and hence I dint do well. heheeh. :) . My brain was thinking about the flight journey and the fun I am going to have with my cousins. As soon as the exam got over, I came back to my room and packed my luggage.
Then the real fun - "the journey".
Thats it
ruffian.. I just like this word... its not that its different/posh/stylish... its just that.. it made me reach my friend

Long Long Ago.... this blog was active !!!
Its been 27 days since I have written a post here. I was busy with project work... then exams.. then holidays... then again back to college yesterday... and already my both hands are filled with work...
First I will start with projects..deadlines..
We had to submit 4 projects in the last week. Each and every project submission taught me a new lesson. I understood that team selection is such an important thing in project. I felt a bit stress in 2 projects and the other 2 were cool.
In ITC project ( subject related to micro soft excel), our team did a very different thing. We presented an animation kind of thing in excel. I took so much time in analyzing the code and finally came up with an animation showing letters "ITC" on excel sheet using graphs. I felt happy especially when charu(my class rep) looking at me with a different facial expression and clapping.
Micro Economics Project was hell. I dont know what to say. Communication gap between team members and so much happened. After project submission, we were suppose to give a presentation on the project. Out of 5 members only two will be picked up from chits. It was such a tension moment. In some teams, the best members have come out and in some teams the others were suppose to give presentation. In my group, the luck two were Prathap and I. I know about my luck. Even in the case of 100 members I will be there if a person is to be selected :(. But it was an okay presentation. I knew most of the things on the slide. But after presentation, there was viva. The worst thing is that madam dint ask from the subject, instead she asked two general questions. One on the mobile operator swap for the same number. I dint know the answer. I bluffed something and raised my head where I saw sai telling me the answer.
I told exactly the wrong answer to Madam. Then she asked some other question on the regulations of mobile sector. Luckily, Prasad answered the question. After PPT, I felt as if I conquered the Earth.
Legal Aspects in Management : This PPT was the best of all. I enjoyed a lot. Especially the team, I was in, was damn good. The sharing of work was the best of all. I dint feel stress at any point of time. Initially Navin prasad felt bad about me as I skipped the first meeting. He directly told me not to do so. I thought I should prove myself that i am not a free rider. I got a situation for which I took advantage. Actually my team was not able to find any cases related to the topic [ cross - holdings]. That afternoon, I sat for three hours and googled. Finally I got a pdf which had 3 cases. "Oh my god" - I couldnt believe my eyes. Immediately I mailed my team. Then there was no harsh feelings between us. We all sat together and prepared the presentation. It was a very good effort because professor was very much impressed with out presentation. Though we took extra time, he dint say anything.
Through sources, we came to know that we got the highest marks. Then we all went for a treat. I had chicken. Actually Navin paid the whole amount. I still dint return him my share in the bill. :( . :).
The last project was about Finance. We took CTS and till now I still did not understand the logic of deferred tax liability and asset. I did just copy paste. It was the final project submission and hence I dint spend much time on this project.
My learnings from these projects are
1. Formation of a perfect team
2. Formation of a perfect team
3. Formation of a perfect team
Team members really play a crucial role. But, I came to know who are the free riders in the class. I am trying to shun from them in this term.

The other part of sept 28th...
Sept 28th is an important day in my life. This day is an unforgettable day. For the past two years some magic happened on this day. I made my best friend so happy last year. This year I am alone. I am all alone. I couldnt even contact my best friend.
Thats it

1000 visits and 100 followers in a single day !!!!
Its true. The title of the post is about the response that has come for a blog we have written for a competition conducted by www.shareurjoy.com .
I just enjoyed applying marketing strategies for it. Really a tough ask.
Raghu and I were the team members. Raghu knows some hi-fi words and this funda mixed with a creative story has come good for us. My sis did lot of hard work in getting fans for my post. A big thanks to her. Thank you so much sister. Next credit should go to my cousin at korea. Thanks a lot bhava.
Actually the deadline was till 12 midnight and we submitted at 12.10 with so many mistakes. We have restructured the blog till 1 am and again resent it. now the question is will they accept our blog ?? :( .
By the way, the post is here
http://shareurjoy4life.blogspot.com/2010/08/seven-wishes.html
The story is a mixed blend of real story and creative story. If you guys have time please read it. Definitely you will like it.
For the first time, FRA madam felt confused in solving a problem the way I used to feel :). But it happens as she dint come with a question on hand. She prepared the question there in the class. QAM class is going deep into concepts. Its so slippery to get the grip :). ITC class is turning out to be the class for extra currics. We are allowed to bring laptop for that class and you can understand what I could have done with the laptop. Gtalk is on for 90 mins. :). Today I have spent most of the time on gtalk just to promote my post at sharurjoy4life.blogspot.com
Today is padmavathi's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PADMA. She is my junior at HSBC.I was her mentor. She is intelligent but lazy and a good girl. Last year my best friend was with me to remember me all this. This year I have to do it on my own. I have those sms with me which act as a reminder. once again HAPPY BIRTHDAY PADMA.
We are doing 4 projects simultaneously and my contribution is almost nil in most of them :).
thats it for the day
