Monday 2/10:
First day of class, and I'm all ready to go to school :) (After all, this is the chance to meet all those international chixs :D). Wake up at about 10:00, get ready, allay Rohit's fears about being charged for an extra day if we don't check out exactly b4 11:00 (we finally leave at 11:25, and Patricia has no problem at all. In fact she shows concern for my running nose and bad throat and suggests some medicines).
Get to school just in time for the 12:30 class. First up is the Spanish course. Good beginning I say :) Well not really so. So this woman (don't feel like calling her lady!) comes to class and starts speaking in the most rapid spanish I've ever heard! "Wha?", I hear myself say. "Yeah sure", I hear Johnson from Hong Kong say. Ah, finally she says just one sentence in english. "All of you who don't know any spanish at all, take this handout and leave the class. Read it for tomorrow and come!" Wow! Anyway, time to leave class and do some PRgiri. Unfortunately, I can only see the chinese/japanese people outside, so that's bad. In ne case, i go and introduce myself to them. Nothing really interesting, so I move on. Time to check out the cafeteria. The coffee there is amazing (and cheap by european standards), but that's abt it. The rest of the food (apart from the donuts) is crap, and I wouldn't know neway coz it's all meat. So much for eating in the mess.
Next class is customer centric systems. It's all globe. Won't have to study much. I orkut and mail all through, so it was fun.
Anyway, so after class it's time for Rohit and me to shift to the apartment! We already checked out of the hostel in the morning, so all we need to do now is take our stuff to the apartment in a cab. Small problem at home is that we have only 4 beds in there (after all there are only 4 of us living there, right? :D). anyway, doesnt matter, i park myself on the sofa and saurabh shared the double bed with rohit and arvind (god knows what happened at nite ;)). surprisingly, i slept like a log (kudos to the makers of the sofa). or maybe it was just the tiredness from all the shifting. just hope the owner of the apartment doesnt plan to visit us (at all!)
