Plans and more!!

Filed under: Rutgers, bored, cooking, plans — cavene @ 5:08 pm

So much to do and still sitting vetti. Hate myself for doing this. Yet…

Got my I-20 from Rutgers. Been worrying abt that for such a long time that I didn’t bother to do anything abt what needs to be done after I receive it. Now, there seems to be too much of work pending.

* Got to find roomates

* Got to find rooms. On checking the houses available, I thought it was great. The floors were shiny, the rooms looked great, the kitchen was so pretty (but yes, I still don’t know how to use the stuff in the kitchen properly). I was elated, UNTIL… I read the reviews for the same.

Nobody seems to recommend them. Apparently there are a million bed bugs and roaches and they run around all night :-(

* Have to book the visa date for which I have to pay $131 in HDFC

* Have to send $57 along with Intent To Enroll form to Rutgers

* Get my immunisation stuff done.

* Apply for the Bank Loan

* Learn Cooking

* Start Buying Stuff

Just so many things to do but please don’t .. DON’T ask me why on Earth I am blogging abt all this without actually doing any of it. The answer is I don’t know. Every morning I wake up with the thought that I am going to do something in the above listed. But at the end of the day I sit feeling lousy wondering why I am such a sombaeri without doing anything. ( I did pay the SEVIS fee today!! Good ol’ me!!)

I have just started cooking. I did Paneer Butter Masala. It looked good and tasted ok. Here take a LOOK!!

But I am happy all the same. I am glad I did something at all you know. Slowly going to work my way up and get doing so great that ppl are going to love my food than my mom’s.

Oh and another wayward incident worth mentioning. I met this coll senior of mine after a year. She was this real nice TamBram. Spoke Tamil, Long hair, no airs, pretty sweet honestly. I met her today after a year and heck had SUNY-Buffalo done a lot to her. A year in the US and she has TRANSFORMED!! Real Short Hair, Orae the scene, Whattey accent!! Came to me as a rude shock.

I was always under the impression that humans can’t change after they are 21. I mean, you are someone for some many years that you can’t change to someone entirely different just cause you move in to a new location. Man was I wrong. But of course she could have been this way all her life just didn’t get to bring it on or maybe I am just being too judgemental to say these things in a matter of seconds that I met her. Eitherways, I don’t want to give anyone the chance to think that I’d changed. I really hope not!!

Oh and BTW, I am getting real bored to blog. I am sorry ppl (who are unfortunate enough to read my blog) , can’t begin to imagine how boring it would be for you guys to read it!! Sorry Again!!

A day worth remembering!!

I know where I am going to spend the next two years. RUTGERS – STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW JERSEY!!! Decision Made today, due to a reject from Georgia Tech. Got the reject this morning. Though it was kinda disappointing (a reject always is), there was this sense of elation. Like everything now had a destination. I know where I am going, which seniors to contact, where my dad has to book the tickets to, whose place I will be staying once I reach there. Everything is now clear in my head. I hate indecision. Until I come to somekinda conclusion in my head.. I can’t rest. But I spend most of the time in indecision and hence the irritated attitude I posses at times. So today I got the answer for a question I’ve been waiting for always!!

Been long time since I visited this page. Very Very busy!! Project Report, CATs, Farewells and Studying. The Report is taking forever.. Too many specifications, Font Size 14, Line Spacing and that and this. So irritating. The Review is on Sunday. The External is a HOD, who is apparently known for shelving the projects. Scary to even think of what might happen to ours.

I tried to check if my project would work in the college labs. Brilliant comps we have. Just takes 15 mins to boot, 10 mins for it to read my pen drive and another 15 to copy a file, from the pen drive to the C drive, which took exactly 2 mins in my comp. This way, I had to switch and work on 2 comps simultaneously. Soon, one of the two, I discovered, did not read my pen drive and while waiting for the third comp to switch on, I decided I might as well do a LAN connection with my laptop and my dad’s at home and take it to coll. That way I’d atleast be assured that I won’t turn 80 by the time the project is over. Hope this strategy works tomo.

I have finished writing CATs FOREVER!! Yay!! My last ever CAT was that of Mobile Communication and I wrote for the whole 40 marks. Yay again!! Jithu took a pic of his last CAT answer sheet et al. 8 semesters, 3 CATs and 6 / 3 papers = 135 CATs altogether and all of them over. Man!! I am growing old. Soon all that I’ll have will be responsibilities.

Sometimes I start thinking that all our lives we keep thinking of something better yet to come that we barely appreciate what we have right now. Just the way I am doing right now. I keep thinking abt the life I’d probably have in US of A, for the past few months (stupid, I know), that I almost forgot everything that’s happening around me. Now suddenly that we are all planning to go places, I feel a little disappointed in myself that I did not live the way I should have, for quite sometime now.

People keep telling me all the time, don’t do things telling yourself that this will pass, so I can take it now coz the future will be better. I mean, like, all these years I couldn’t wait to get out of this college, these ppl, everything around me. But, I don’t want to be that person anymore. I have almost wasted these years just waiting for something better to happen to me. We would never know what the future is to give us. The least we can do now is to make the best of all the ingredients we have NOW.

A place, A new beginning, another chance I am to get soon. I really want to make the best of it. I can’t take away all the tension that I exhibit most of the times for all the trivial things in my life. But I am going to try. For sure!!

I am so stupid that I start writing about something and end up finishing about something that has no connection what so ever with the start. Wavering gal!! Humph!!

Oh and this!!! I have been in this coll for four years. Four years I have never had to meet the HOD. A very good girl I am!! Just a few days back I was reveling in the fact that I have never been sent to the HOD. But last week, there was a memo from the office read to us.

Disciplinary action taken against the following students.

I didn’t bother abt it coz why would my name be there. But alas!! Mine was. Kavin shocked!! Reason given finally. I left a paper(forgot) with my previous CAT marks – report card – in class. Hence I am to take my dad and mom to coll before the project review to Sri Perumbudur to meet the HOD. What a Huge SIN I have committed!! I need some clensing of soul here, Lord!!!
