Long time no see..

Screw WBUT and the Election Commission of India.

Being a state university board, and knowing that there is an election to be held this year, any sane person would first communicate with the state Government and finalise the exam dates. This was almost a 'disaster' waiting to happen. And it is what exactly happened. Yes, our semester exams got delayed for a month. So out goes all the plans we made for post-sem. Even worse we were informed of this scenario just a couple of days before the exam was due to start.


So now what do we do? The good side of our brain tells us that this may just be a blessing in disguise. Given the extra month
i could study and lead our steadily dropping GPA upward! But the 'dark' side (the side we most of the times listen to) informs me that i have taken a lot of "chap" over the past few days and now its time to let it out. There's still lots of time left to study. And so i go out and have fun. To hell with studying..Bring on the movies, parties and the theme parks.


The instant i was informed of the utter misfortune of having the exams postponed, I felt devastated because that meant our trip to North Bengal got cancelled. It would have been my first time going on such a holiday with my friends (the Diganta trip doesn't count). Kaushik and his friends had planned this and had invited me to go along with them. It would have been a week to remember. A full week on our own in the hills near Darjeeling. Oh just to think about it! While planning our main thoughts were towards the fact that we would be reaching NJP on a Thursday (read on..cause explained later) not the unrest in the Hills or the arrival of monsoon. We were worried whether we would find any open liquor store there, Thursday being a dry day (for idiots- no booze day).
