A waste of Wonderful weather...

Ever seen a Gulmohur tree just about to shed its leaves ???
every single leaflet is golden yellow.......brittle, just touch and it falls down....

the weather is wonderful.........the rains have given just the right amount of bite to the wind....

Numerous Swifts flit above me, uttering their sharp cries..........a family of Babblers is busy chasing away a garden lizard while two Spotted owlets stare out of their nest hole in the large fig tree outside the lecture hall complex..............

really a weather fit to enjoy nature, .....

...........But here i sit, trying to mug up the treatment regimen for Tuberculosis, Leprosy, Epilepsy and all the big and small diseases..............alright folks, Exams, much awaited, have finally arrived......................................

Exams ahoy.....


Finally exam time has come....................the time for never ending nights (or shall i say an extension of the daily routine)

with barely 20 days to go to the Prelims.............you see the whole junta go about .....very much like the archetypical zombies.........on an ovrdose of coffee and "other stimulants".....

Vth term.........that is 13 days non stop "night outs"................it cracks even the hardest of nuts........

no doubt..............it is feared as hell...............

Of rains and colds.....

Finally........some rains -- actually a LOT of rains............the most in a decade they say......

gave some respite from the heat......but gave me a cold too...................
tried out the "chicken soup" treatment (now i think it really works).......

In the meanwhile...................the whole sleep pattern is going haywire.........slept for 6 hours straight (after classes that is )........... and now sitting wide awake while even the "nightcrawlers" have gone to their burrows.......
