LIFE ON CAMPUS (AT XIMB)
well...first year up........second phase to start after summers.....
summer trainin goin on in Delhi....at 3M India (Home Care Division)
from April 5th till June 5th..........

so here makin a ruff sketch about an average day at XIMB.........
it was fast paced......n fun all the way......(if u can handle dat pressure)

wake up time generally around 8:30AM........sometimes 8:55 AM....and class at 9 am.....
basically......ne one who wakes up by 8:55 am on the floor bangs on the other peoples door and wakes dem up.....
a rush occurs for a rapid action brushin along with face washin..........

next part is the class till 10:30 am.....people do catch up on some sleep........
after 10:25 am......no doubts to be asked........any1 askin can expect a pretty nice treatment after the class.....
its the unsaid rule......who wants the class to extend...as such profs love to extend the class and eat into half hour time we keep for breakfast from 10:30 to 11am....when the next class starts.......

so the moment clock strikes 10:30 class becomes restless........and every1(most of them) eneter the mess
to grab cuppa coffee or tea....watever along with breakfast.......
tendency to have more dan one cup of coffee or tea is common............
by 10:55am...students can be seen walkin towards acad block carryin cups filled with coffee or tea.........

again a similar session till 12:30........people catch on sleep n people take detailed notes.......(notes get photocopied later in bulk)

from 12:30 to 2 pm.....LUNCH........sleep or eat or eat and den sleep do watever u wanna.....
people catch up frnds on net and chat with them till 1:55 pm.....or even study or finish assignment for the next class.........

den from 2 pm till 3:30pm another class......and 3:30 to 3:45pm people grab a cup of coffee (Nescafe)
if there is a class at 3:45.....

if class den again similar class schedule till 5:15.....
else.......assignments, projects are being done..........

at 5pm SNACK time..........again cuppa tea........and snacks........
there mite be a class at 6pm till 7:30 and sometimes from 7:45 till 9:15 pm....
if these classes r not there....project work or assignments or presenations bein done or made...............

9 pm is the dinner time..............students can be seen havin dinner in mess or at X Cafe...........
watever suits the person............

den people mite go to sleep.......(dont how can some sleep so early)
else project on till wenever u wanna do...........

for me.......gamin session of Age of Empires starts around 10:30 or 11 PM.......
sometimes a movie mite start around 12am..........wich is seen in grup..........

people generally go off to sleep by 1am.....or mayb 3.......
and on some occasions no sleep...............

well the day repeats itself again and again..........

sundays r almost free until unless there is some rescheduled class.......
dats the day......wen we all catch up on the sleep........
and also wrap up ne othe personal stuff we wanna do.......
go out....on dinner.......market.........et al..........

well dats all for a day........i suppose........
not to forget the 2AM tennis games............
