Crazy start of the week

So, I pulled all-nighter because I needed to understand 3 research papers and was supposed to compare them and then meet my BTech Project Guide. And to my surprise I couldn’t even complete a single paper. Of course, after all I am daring enough to work under Dr. Ganguly. Of course, I am still hoping that this ‘dare’ will give fruits :) . It’s interesting to work on something which you know you can not do. Isn’t it? :)

So, after this night, I had class at 02:30 UTC. To enter Academic Area there are mainly 4 gates. I usually take a gate which is usually not taken by other students. Each gate has a Security Guard. Of course we never notice security guard, and I assumed that security guards never give any attention to students. But today when I was rushing for the class, this security guard at the gate said, “Sir, aapki chaal mast hai”. Which means “Sir, your walking style is good/interesting.” I was shocked. First I didn’t even notice that he was there. Second that he must be observing me for quite sometime. Third that he said something like this. I said “kya?” (“what?”) and he replied “aap chalte hue achche lagte hain.” ( “you look good when you are walking”). wierd!!! I am sure he wan’t hitting on me, but still, its weird.
Then it comes out that there was no class today. And I need to complete an assignment by tonight. And I need to complete some formalities by 06:30 UTC for placements. So, I have no time to sleep in day time as well. On thursday, I have got  2 exams, need to do preparation for that as well. And then BTP work.

By the way, my BTech Project is about “Compressed Sensing”. I will be starting a new blog to talk about it. Stay tuned.

    You have a confident walk. You walk with your pelvis first and a little bit of gun slinger in your lower arms. You don’t have the “street urchin” hunched walk, like a lot of tall people. Imagine a jock version of Shaggy from Scooby-Doo. I enjoy studying people’s postures :) .

    By the way, the saying I taught you is “to pull an all-nighter.”

    Get more sleep. It is good for you.

    Thanks for the compliment(?). Though apart from the first line I couldn\’t understand anything. 5 friends of mine are working on decrypting this message.

    You surely study people\’s postures. You predicted lot of things about \’her\’ as well. Interesting…
