You know you are having exams when –
December 25, 2008
-you start reading the newspaper from the first page right till the end (ads and business section included) and solve all the crosswords, jumbles and su-do-kus
-you learn the name and even the spelling of the director of Ghajini (because that s the concentration you show while watching the promos and also cos of the number of times they are being aired!)
-you start playing games on your cell, something you haven’t done ever since your bought it
-you start getting new ideas to post on your blog (which has been idle from past six months, when you last had exams)
-you start reading everyone else’ s post (starting from AB to Aamir to a friend you haven spoken to in ages)
-you suddenly realize the importance of the existence of GOD
-you start watching serials and even their reruns
-you start getting radical thoughts on how the whole purpose of having exams is so obsolete and how you could reform the system
-after every half an hour you get a call – from nature!
-you start answering all your customer care calls
-you get more fwds (mostly on exams/VTU/engg) from your friends than ever before!
-and you actually forward those msgs to other friends!
-all your favorite movies start getting aired on every damn channel (and obviously you cant watch them)
-you get emotional and emotionless at the same time
-jan 1st reminds you of C# (or any other subject relative to your field) and nothing else, not even that s it’s the beginning of the new year
-your working sheet/s turn a master piece; they are filled with your name in every possible font and/or your doodling
-you discover new things about your cell phone, learn all the features and even type msgs in Hindi
-nobody cares to wish you on Christmas!
-even frustration becomes contagious
-you spend more time planning what to study than actually doing it
-your friends freak out when you tell them you updated your blog with a new post
-you get irrational of doubts and actually call up your friend to get them clarified!
-you finally realize its time to shut up and study because your friend doesn’t seem to entertain your doubts
