Readings

..lots of them.. and I must finish them all!

Boarding Bonding

The boarding concert was yesterday. I really didn’t know our students were so talented. Everything, from the piano recital to the classic rock band was amazing. The students were so beaming with confidence, especially since the whole thing was put together by them and none of the staff members were involved with the organizing. Of course a few of the staff was there to oversee the whole thing, but the entire production was by the students.

I think it takes a lot of guts to perform on the stage if the audience is made up of your friends, classmates and mentors. But these guys really pulled it off well, they even supported each others performances by making surprise appearances in the middle of the performance with flowers. I think that was cute.

I missed the Indian gang from last year. There was no bollywood dance, no backstage drama. I missed the gore-gore track playing in my mind all the time. But this is life, I guess. Everything changes.

Back to school

After what seems like an eternity!

Seeing the first years scuttling from one orientation briefing to another reminds me of my own first semester. The semester on the whole was pretty useless, but I do remember wishing time would stand still around this time three years ago. Well it didn’t. A lot more exciting things happened and I can’t be more thankful for them.

After my never-ending internship, today is the first time I am going to do some school related study stuff. It’s so exciting. Even if it’s just meeting a supervisor and getting briefed. I like this old feeling. It’s like getting back to your comfort zone. Your habits.

It might sound crazy but I love the fact that I am feeling poor again, contemplating a part-time job. I am looking at my time table over and again, trying to find time to snooze in between classes, trying to find project mates early and running around campus. And I’m loving it.

Can’t believe I’ll be graduating in less than a year. I guess time loves to run away, when you most want it to stand still.
