high hopes

*sigh*...just had my first mid-term. but muhahaha...it seems that i did decently well, in fact i'm pretty sure of getting a good grade !! So, after all i'm pretty much proving my theory right.

Oz'z theory #1
"Everyday is like Sunday" - yeps, it is possible to get good grades keeping that attitude in mind !!

Well, here's the more sober version of it. If you intend to be in grad school, assumption one is that you are an above-average student...talking academically. So, without psyching out or losing your head, it is possible for people to score good grades and at the same time having a chilled out time !!

Actually, the whole experience has been pretty darn neat, especially since I felt that the profs. here are not as rigid as they used to be in India. If on a test of one hour, if not all students have been able to finish up, they tend to wait till either the prof or the students get restless. And not just one or two profs., but almost all of them have that attitude. In case some student has gone totally blank or for some reason weren't able to use their pens on paper, profs. try to be kind and give that student a second chance for partial credit, which again is pretty cool...

...anyhow, the only hard part one could say is that test and homework due-dates generally co-incide. So, that sees to it that us folks are always on the move. Plus, if one has a part-time job, one really has to balance all that stuff. Then again, I don't compromize on Saturdays (...read don't lose a chance to go pubbing or clubbing...*bling*)

whew...am in the open and it's starting to get real cooold now...

soz !!
