The problem with having lab exams during the classes is that you feel greatly relaxed after the exam and do not want to sit and listen to your lecturers for a long time. Some may disagree, but I strongly feel so. So I was filled with gratitude to God when the first three hours were free. It happens only once in a lifetime in the department of electronics.
There were a lot of activities going on, meanwhile, to engage our attention. I had to return my library book. I got four books issued in my name today- two from the department library and two from the main library. Moreover, there was a discussion on the industrial visit. We may not go to Hyderabad after all. The very thought depresses me. I would have loved to go there.
Joe was tying friendship bands on everyone's hand today. She really needs a thumps up for putting in such a lot of effort in making those bands. I cannot imagine myself doing such a tiring job. Well, Joe, you are magnificent in your patience with threadwork! Thank you for the band.
After the LIC period got over, I ran out of the class, planning to cut the IM class. But Aparna dragged me back and I got in half an hour late. The lecturer didn't kick me out. I guess it is because the fellow is from the mech department.
CO period was free again. We started discussing about cancer patients. I thought it would be a good idea to go and meet the patients at RCC. Neetha told me that an institution, called Careplus would allow us to work as volunteers. I am going to volunteer.
Honestly, I do not know how it is going to affect us - I mean, both the patients and me. I have had an experience of nearly losing my mother and would do anything in the world for not going through all that again. What I will be seeing there would be the same - people struggling with death and their families, trying to give them hope. I know it is going to shatter me but I am sure it will build me as well. It will give some meaning to my life, I believe.
I hope to go there this Saturday. We haven't received permission yet from anyone. So there will be some work to do this week. I am glad about it. I always feel terrible when I have nothing to do.
