Of cakes...professors...and lectures that were not!

This one takes the cake. And the pedhas. And ladoos as well.

As most of you would know, I am in my fifth trimester of MBA. Well, if you didn't, you did now. Plus, it also means you haven't been following my life too well. That is so not caring. Bloody Bull.

Anyways.

So, here I was, 5th trimester. Where people almost stop worrying about studies, lesser about exams, and mostly about the pay packages and profiles. Of the jobs. And the placements.

But I think I have broken all barriers today. I forgot that we had a subject taught by a particular professor in this trimester. Err no, I did not forget the name of the professor. Or of the subject. I forgot that we actually had this subject.

So here is how it peters out.

It is 12 in the night. I log out of my lap top last night. Tired and exhausted of four successive days, of being at home and relaxing. So had to sleep. Lights off. Cozily snuggle up my bed.

Ten minutes into my thoughts for the day, something strikes. I get reminded of a professor. Let's name him X. So, I remember Mr. X. For no apparent reason. Or rhyme. Didnt I hear someone say that he would teach us again this trimester. But then, I had not experienced him so far.

Huh?

I am awake now. Fully. Lights on. Laptop opened. Turned on. Not me, the laptop buddy.

Log in to my gmail. Search for the time table.

There it is. Shocker. I have missed 5-6 of his lectures so far. Out of 10 that is.

Because I didnt know we had such a subject this trimester. I groaned.

Damn.

My future is bleak.

Probably I will tell him that absent mindedly I put my dog in the bread and put him in the cooker to make a hot dog. And then I mourned. For a month.

Muahahahaha!! Suneer, my love.. you give me hope!!

I went into his fifth lecture thinking it was his first and then spent ten minutes figuring out why he said 'taking from where we left off'.. Thought he was talking about last trim!!

Anyways, attended lecture on Saturday and promptly forgot about the Sunday lecture... sigh!!

Old age getting on??

But the point is, in the attendance register, I seem to have been diligently present for all the sessions. I owe it to the soul who loves P in all columns of the register.. Who knows, you might have been lucky as well!!
