hindi paper

well i admitted it lot of times i just hate reading hindi , but it is a compulsary subject so had to give it . it had many more chapters than english somehow managed to mugg up the whole guide that i had borrowed from a friend.... the only motivation for the exam was that this is gonna be the alst time i will be giving an exam on hindi ... well i had not touched hindi for the past two years and in the examination hall i realised that was a problem whicvh io had never though of , because of my kinda abandoning the subject i almost forgot how to write it and also i could really remember the words that is used when we speak hindi in stead of hinglish...
well it is all over my ordeal with hindi has finally ended

paper 3

man i cant believe what an idiot i am , i will never l;earn . for teh three days that i got for this exam i just didnt study , i dunno what i was doing but one thing i was not doing was studying .... and that too for a subject like econometrics... well this was the paper that everybody tries top score the most in and my friend could be quoted saying "if you dont aim of scoring above 80% in this exam , then you are not worth being graduating " . well some how i just quickly glanced over everything ... but i had left sum portion of the syllabus since i didnt have the time to go into the details that it puts a person into . but still i had done the rest , so i finally decided that common i cant be so dumb i have read these thing over and over again but i just dont remember them when it mattered trhe most .... arghhhh.... well i will have to give the exam and so i went into the hall and when i got the paper then i though that i must lessen my aim to somewhere around 50 ... still those words of my friend kept ringing in my ears .... so i just wen t about doing the questions one after the other with the feeling that i can do it .... i dunno where all those things were hiding but as i started solviong the problems i just kept getting the answer , suddenly the technical and logical part of my brain started working at its optimal level and just as it had happened earlier i had unanticipatedly completed my exam way before the alloted time and i just dunno how i just completed it ... i feel that even if i try to solve those quetions now i would just wont be able to do it , but hey i did it just when it mattered the most .... well what i would take out of this is that dont be afraid to take the plunge , everything goes in your favour once you think that you can change the coruse with your effort...
well a big paper coming up next development economics and just got one day in between do i better start working right now .... i dont want myself to be in the same situation that i found myself in the morning.....

some Quotes

There are only three events in a man’s life; birth, life, and death; he is not conscious of being born, he dies in pain, and he forgets to live. — JEAN DE LA BRUYÈRE

I can’t listen to music too often. It affects your nerves; you want to say nice, stupid things and stroke the heads of people who could create such beauty while living in this vile hell. And now you must not stroke anyone’s head — you might get your hand bitten off. You have to hit them on the head, without any mercy. — VLADIMIR ILYICH LENIN

Business underlies everything in our national life, including our spiritual life. Witness the fact that in the Lord’s Prayer the first petition is for daily bread. No one can worship God or love his neighbour on an empty stomach. — WOODROW WILSON

Say what you will, there is something fine about our old aristocracy. I’ll bet Trotsky couldn’t hit a moving secretary with an egg on a dark night. — P. G. WODEHOUSE

The difference between being a director and being an actor is the difference between being the carpenter banging the nails into the wood, and being the piece of wood the nails are being banged into. — SEAN PENN

Crimes are created by Parliament; it needs a policeman to make a criminal. You don’t become a criminal by breaking the law, but by getting found out. — EDMUND LEACH

I could see that childhood was an invention of grown-ups, a fiction we were required to take on trust in case we demanded something better. — PHILIP OAKES

There is no reason whatever to believe that the order of nature has any greater bias in favour of man than it had in favour of the ichthyosaur or the pterodactyl. ? H.G. WELLS

One out of four people in this country is mentally unbalanced. Think of your three closest friends — and if they seem okay then you’re the one! — ANN LANDERS

I’ll give you my opinion of the human race in a nutshell…Their heart’s in the right place, but their head is a thoroughly inefficient organ. — W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM

What’s the good of a lie if it’s seen through? When I tell a lie no one can tell it from the gospel truth. Sometimes I can’t even tell it myself. — GRAHAM GREENE

Those who talk most about the blessings of marriage and the constancy of its vows are the very people who declare that if the chain were broken and the prisoners left free to choose, the whole social fabric would fly asunder. You cannot have the argument both ways. If the prisoner is happy, why lock him in? If he is not, why pretend that he is? — GEORGE BERNARD SHAW

I was ready to admit — if only I had been old enough to understand them — all the right-wing truths which an old left-wing man taught me through his actions: that Truth and Myth are one and the same thing, that you have to simulate passion to feel it and that man is a creature of ceremony. — JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

I sometimes wonder if the manufacturers of foolproof items keep a fool or two on their payroll to test things. — ALAN COREN

It is unfortunate, considering that enthusiasm moves the world, that so few enthusiasts can be trusted to speak the truth. — A.J. BALFOUR

paper 4

well what a start to the day , overnight and morning rains and i had to get out for the exams at 10 am in knee deep water . today is the paper on economic development though very simple we are very much vary of it coz of the length of the answers that we are supposed to wrtie for this paper...
as always i was tensed for this paper but the reason not being that i might not know an answer but for the fear that i wont be able to write answers that would fetch me enough marks...
well with my pants folded upto knee i went out and reached the busstop and got a bus after quite a long wait and it was not smooth even after getting into it ... due to excessive rain there was serious waterlogging at some major crossings and so it was becoming difficult to believe that i would reach in time but somehow the bus took on to the bypass and then there was no waterlogging any where ... well after that the running was smooth and reached college and gave the exam , well i didnt sit with any of my classmated i choose to sit in a seperate corner surrounded by students with other field of study like bengali , english and maths etc...
i dunno but i felt today i didnt want any interruptions from anyone and as it turned out to be i finished the paper just in the nick of time ... sometimes even four hours are not enough ... well blame it on one of the questions that i had no clue about , i completely made up the answer by putting in points from various other topics i had read , believe it or not it was worth 15 marks thats more than 600 words . i felt like an eternal genius after writting that answer...

anyways my honours papers are all over now what are left are just language papers and papers on statistics and maths which are my additional subjects....

paper 2

ahemmm well today was my second honours paper , well there was some tension building around this one ... i was not able to concentrate for the whole day till 2 in the afternoon on the day before the exam and we got just a days break , so i was preety depressed coz this was a subject on which i had even studied out of the course becoz of the intrest i had in it... wel i had my lunch yesterday and though that ok i must give myself a chance to score well in this exam , no matter if i am not able to concentrate , i must give myself a chance tommrow to write the answers .... so with that in mind i sat wid de book and just started reading , whenever i felt distracted i started reading loudy . so i started at say 3 pm and the session stretched till the whole syllabus was finished ... it was about 1 am in the night when i finally closed my book . what kept on driving me was that i wanted to give myself a chance to write .... even when i woke up in the morning at 5:30 i was not feeling sleepy coz all that was going through my mind was all that i had been studying , it was as if i had completed my syllabus in my dreams .... well i just wanted to be sure that i had completed it all in reality so i started all over again even though i had to be out of my house by 10 . so i started reading and by the time it was 9 i found that i was again through with the whole thing . so i was preety confident as i went to the examination centre and thankfully i didnt have all the trouble i had to face last day... well i sat to give the exams with much anxiety ... the paper was handed over , hmmm seems preety simple except for may be a bit tricky ones there , well the first problem was worth 15 marks and i started writting it but i got totally confused and b4 i knew it was already half an hour gone , then there were another 3 15 markers i had to write , so i proceded with them with that first question still at the back of my mind .. this lead to me taking more time to write those answers and i dont think i wrote them as it would have pleased me... and by the time i finished them it was already more than 2 hours that i had spent in the examination hall , and i still had to finish all the remaining questions and the first question . there were a couple of other questions in the paper as an option for the 15 markers , but decided that the problem i had zeroed into had challenged my intellect and i must solve it ... before i call quits i must try ..... so now with this new zeal i proceeded to see write the answer and the only thing thta was on my mind was that i must give my self enough time to ponder over the question i unsuccessfully attempted and i quicklyt finished the remaining questions and then when i glanced my watch i couldnt belive what i saw ... i had completed it all in less than a hour and was now left with just about an hour for that first question ... i returned to the page where the first attempt was made .... again got confused .... so i cancelled what i had wrotten or written and started afresh ...... cleared my mind of everything and took a systematic approach and got the technical flaw i had made and then i just had to give a finishing touch , then looking around i just found that i was actually the first one to finish the paper and then i revised the whole thing and submitted it and my heart just grew into pride to hear that no one in that class had the confidence to try and solve the question and that made my achievement even greater . i always knew they were muggers who mugged up all those things that their tutor had taught them and now i had proved the point ...
but now when i look back what was really worth being proud of was that i followed my inner voice and had confidence in myself to get out of situation when i though like i was doomed ....
well now 3 days of gap before the next exams so i hope will prepare well for that one...
chao...
