busy days...

Over the past two days, the number of things I have done, with just four hours of sleep all together, makes me feel like a superman... touchwood... but I am beginning to get used to this punishing schedule I guess... I even managed to sneak out of the campus inbetween for a couple of hours to watch the india pakistan hockey match at the nearby gachibowli stadium... ive wanted to watch a hockey match, live, for a very long time and yesterday was the perfect setting...

what better than watch a match between india and pakistan, amidst 3000 odd mad fans, cheering for india... and even better when India scored the winning goals... For those that saw the match on TV, the third goal by India was simply superb... artistry in hockey... the speed, verve and skill of the teams was amazing... though the new stadium had some rough edges, overall, it was a much needed break from the usual campus grind...

All the courses this term have a project, to be completed towards the end of the term, culminating in presentations... the next one week will go in just ELP and course project presentations! Add to that the end term submissions and its a real busy two weeks ahead

today was our first gyaan session regarding resumes and interviews from alums... 5 alums, from Infy, MS and other IT companies in hyd dropped in for a 2 hour session on IT jobs, IT company interviews and some general gyaan on resumes, cover letters, EOIs, handling stress, being focussed and searching for a job... It was extremely useful... Many more alums will begin visiting the campus hopefully to give us such guidance...
