Surprise?

Two days ago I confidently predicted no quizzes for the remainder of the week. Given my stock market fortunes over the last six months, it came as no surprise that there were three quizzes in two days. The third - in maths - today, was the outcome of the economics prof's indiscretion though. Day-before-yesterday, the eco class was second, to be followed by maths. Contrary to WIMWI policy, the economics professor all but announced that there was to be a quiz in the afternoon. Since maths class is optional, 3 quarters of the junta promptly left to mug and there were only 22 students in the class. This was still better than attendance during T-Nite, but the maths profs were nevertheless disturbed. So their response was to give broad hints about preparing and coming for the next class, and sure enough, there was a quiz in the class today. And attendance had dramatically risen to over 75.

The basketball tournament began today. Section D played A in the first round. We have a great team, especially Balaji, Samrinder, Pepsy, DJ and Rajaram. We had an easy victory over A, and will play section B in the final tomorrow. I am quite hopeful that we'll win this competition too.

The fourth term for the tuchhas has ended. The campus wears a rather deserted look. Yesterday Dorm 18 went for a dinner to mark the end of the term. In two weeks, the first-year first term will end too. I'll try to put some more contemplative posts during this period. Of course T-Nite has to be described too. But right now, we have to research for the HR and ID projects due next week. The case for OM has to be prepared too. Plus the expectations for a quiz-heavy week persist. I hope I'll have time.
