Officially "Senior"

Despite rumour that the college may be suspended due to the much talked about Swine Flu, finally the day has arrived, to be officially crowned a 'Senior', the very thought of which gives a rare sense of superiority. I don't want to talk about the 'most haunting word in a juniors life' - Ragging, for the sake of my own safety (Attended an anti-ragging campaign in college a couple of weeks before, which had the basic motive to scare us by enumerating the consequences of ragging. As a matter of fact, we did get scared. Words like ''abatement'' are still ringing loud in my ears).

It's the New Year in our Malayalam Calender and as per tradition your life for the rest of the year will depend on this one day - the Mallu New Year. The worst part is that we are not granted a holiday. A Monday - Opening day to a hectic week prior to our first internal exams in my second year of college life.

I was woken up by my roommate at around Four in the morning. He wanted me to close the door as he was getting out to catch some train to attend a technical fest at Chengannur College of Engineering. His revenge - for me refusing him company. What an opening to my New Year! Having got him out, I went back to bed hoping to wake up to the alarm I have previously set on my phone. At some point of time, hearing the multiple loops of the Snooze thing, I woke up to find that I have overshot my plans by about a hour-and-half (nothing new though). Having done my usually morning cleansing, I settled down in front of some gigantic Math textbooks hoping to feed my brain. And yea, I did succeed in turning a leaf and making a leap. The topic was LaPlace Transforms, the most important in an electrical engineers life - as they made us believe. Starting off with the basic formulas which i didn't find difficult to recollect from class, I stepped on to irritating 'special cases'. At this point I got terribly irritated and distracted (Yea, I get distracted very easily).
After those remarkable achievements, having fed my brain, it was time to feed my stomach, dress myself and get to college(which always promised trouble - this time in the form of Lecturers or new assignments ). Got lift from a friend called Renesh, and for the first time in this Semester- i made it to class well before time.

The class, as usual, was in some hurry doing homeworks and assignments for the week, and me being a part of it joined in. It was a usual day with lot of boring lectures and even more boring lecturers.

(I dont remember a thing to write further, as i have been re-doing this post which was drafter a couple of days before)
