Its in the middle of exams.... i know i must be crazy to post now...
but my mind is in a muddle.... and it needs some airing...
about my blog -
almost everyone i know comments the same way... its dark. its sad. its depressing.
ayyo !!
i never meant for it to be like that. i will make a conscious effort to change the content.
the style - i think is good enough. besides changing that would just take too much of effort.
hmm....a light veined topic...
like what?
i wonder if a recounting of today is enough. unfortunately for me and you, that is the only thing coming to my mind now. so its got to be that.
i had a french exam, today, for which i did not prepare. at all. went to coll, prepared to flunk. but thanks to a very helpful friend (thanks, S... i really would have handed over a blank sheet if not for you) i managed to MUG up all the answers. considering, it was a language paper, it's very very very sad. to MUG, i mean...
its something i never do, and it did go against the grain, this time, but at least i did not 'bit-adichify' or copy off the desk. which i am sorry to say, many of my friends and classmates did. to you all- i look down my nose at you... i did not cheat !!! (asking for help during the exam is something altogether different... :-) he he)
though i did mug... which is worse, i must say... :-(
i have never been able to mug. at least not properly... but i have been surrounded by muggers or mug-pots...
from fourth standard when we had to do poem recitation to ninth standard when we had to mug algebra formulas, to twelfth standard when a lot of my friends found it easier to mug up chemical equations rather than work them out - never ever been able to mug the right things in the right order...
so what does 'mug' mean ? in the dictionary ?
lets see...
mug 1
nowhere does it say what it means to mug !!! at least in my sense of the word...
hang on...
aha !!!
| Verb | 1. | mug up - study intensively, as before an exam; "I had to bone up on my Latin verbs before the final exam" |
hmmm.... there you go...
and as another comment about my blog has been that my posts are toooo loooong...
i will stop here...
with a hasty recollection of the rest of my day... in one breath...
from coll, i take a friend's notes with promises to take xerox, (because of lack of notes for tomorrow's exam) and return them by 5.. go get the xerox, ( for which we seemed to have to walk and walk and walk and walk and walk...) go to the friend's house, drop the notes off, grab a bite (a huge, tasty bite) to eat (i know, sus, it was hardly a bite- so much more- thanx a bunch, babe...) and then leave.
considering, i'm broke, i decide to take the bus... and i end up taking the right bus on the wrong side... (you know... if something ever went right with me, i wouldn't be able to breathe for the shock) well, i got down at the last stop which was the bus depot, and got into another bus which was heading the right way, when i realised that my destination, was the last stop again... ( i had to travel the whole bus route, comprenez?) does my fate turn there ?
no ! the bus into which i had gotten into was found to have a faulty axle, so out we (there was a whole bus load of us) went. and into the next waiting bus. which was cancelled because of some registration problem. so out i went with my bus pals again.
i was beginning to get quite friendly with them... the paati with the bright red bindi, the aunty in the dark green sari, the thatha walking precariously but on his own two feet, and the uncle yawning away on his cell phone. this time we opted to wait and see which bus would move and then catch it. that was when, i saw the aunty running, she had caught one surprisingly empty and clean bus slinking away, i think the conductor and the driver were hoping noone would see them making their clean get away, but the aunty's eyes were too sharp. thanks to her i caught the bus, not so lucky were the precariously perched thatha and the paati, the uncle however managed to hop on in the last minute... and off we went... the reat of the journey was uneventful and doesnot need to be chronicled.
it was an entertaining and adventuruous evening. although i do wish i didn't have to walk so much... and i hope the thatha and the paati reached home safe and early...
that was not a hasty recollection... sorry, y'all...
will try to condense my next post even more...
oh and do check out the word games i've put on my sidebar... aren't they nice? :-)
smiling, for a change, i'm signing out...
goodnight, world...
