Grad School is tough!

Phew! Every week I wait with bated breath for Thursday night...cos that is when my 3 day weekend starts! I know...you must be thinking...this guy has a three day weekend? His life is made right? No way! Cos the other 4 days are so engaging and there is so much going on in Grad school you literally have no time to stand and stare! And since this is a Thursday night I thought , hey, let me empty my head a little.

So what happens in Grad school? Well, I read papers. I work on assignments. I work on projects. I try to keep up with what the Prof is talking about. And since I am in the hellish quarter system, I just try to get by. And since I am a Masters student, I am totally confused :)

But hey, its fun. I am finally learning stuff. Hadn't done anything in years! Am working on this project for one of my courses- its a web application for the cloud and we are gonna make it using Google App Engine, Python and Django- all of which I gotta learn! But hey that is cool-how about the weather? I still don't get California-one day it rains, one day its sunny, and one day its cold! Crazy! And you gotta come back after a long day in this crazy weather & make yourself some food before you drop off! Welcome to grad school!

hmmm. why do i get the feeling that a lot of fun stuff has been left out of this post....selective memory?

hmmmmm :P

enjoy your days kanna... Your schedule reminds me of we went through during our MBA. The weather though was surely more predictable for us.

I wish I could go back to college again :(
