singin' in the rain

it has been raining continually for God Knows how many days here at IIMA. The campus is getting flooded and we have to wade through gallons and gallons of water to get to our classes.Mr.Louis Kahn probably came from a Desert. So he apparently forgot that there are such things as rains. The drainage system at IIMA is adequate testimony to this...

The rains of course have brought their own power cuts to this place. We have been having Economics sessions in pitch darkness (there is hardly any natural light in the classrooms). Talk about knowledge dispelling the darkness of ignorance.

We also have this thingy called T-Nite at IIMA, where all first year students ("facchas") have a whale of a time trying to out-shout and out-perform their colleagues from other sections. The seniors say that this is the most memorable time that we will ever get to spend at IIMA. I don't doubt them. The fever runs really high and loyalty to your section really comes through. The fun is even more when we have to rush out in the pouring rain for buying stationery, bugles, ribbons and stuff .

This week promises to be really hectic, what with having to keep your preparations for class up to the mark and simultaneously trying to see that your section emerges on top... But then, as McDonald's slogan goes:

"I'm luvin' it"

Signing off.
