An old school friend dropped by today. We had a super-long chat about nearly everything under the sun: from college life to a tiny bit about politics.
I have rediscovered a kindred spirit. 'Nuff said!

College Today: A Dud of a Seminar
I saw my results yesterday. 'Twas too close to fail for comfort.
I attended a symposium organised by our department today, and man was it an amazing failure in my opinion. The guests had to be accommodated in the main seminar hall, which meant that we host students had to go to an adjoining room and view the seminar via video-conference. All fine in theory.
But ... there was only video and no audio, which means everyone who were in the adjoining room (including yours truly) quickly lost all interest and were just keen for the lunch. I don't blame the technical guys, though, they did try their best. It didn't work.
My friends and I were busy posing for and taking photographs to kill time before lunch. :P We also shared some files via Bluetooth and some others were playing mp3s (or the FM Radio) full-blast from their mobiles even when teachers were around.
I now have the song Kabhi Kabhi Aditi Zindagi from Jaane Tu ... Ya Jaane Na in my little collection of MP3s. *listens*

Birthdays and Anxiety
It's my birthday tomorrow, and I'm anxious. Not about the gifts I will get or the lack thereof, but of my semester results. They'll come out in a day or two ...

Goodbye, F/R
F/R's leaving the Fireplace soon; eagerly awaiting his kid's arrival into the world. I'll miss him.
Happy parenting, Flame Rising. Your PWNage kicks ass.
The fansite is lovely.

College Gossip: Bitching and Giggling
What an interesting day ... Only if all days at college were so interesting ... and I'm not talking about lessons. :D
It all started when I talked to A- a little more enthusiastically than usual. His girlfriend got pretty bitchy about it and started nagging him in class and forcing him to whisper some messages to my bench. (He was sitting behind me.) "A-, tell her to mind her own business, etc, etc" - you can imagine the rest. Psht. She's insecure.
Funnily enough, I'm least interested in having a boyfriend. And, what's even more amusing? A- and this girl don't even appear to be serious. Apparently, he's got another GF in his home state.
My other friends did ask me to give it back to her, but I ignored them.
Another couple of girls giggled at me in the canteen today, according to a friend. I'm not fussed about that either: I've been teased my whole life; most of it doesn't affect me anymore.
I have something to say about today's online events, but that will be in another post.
