the good and the bad
I have the worst sense of timing in history. Finals began today and there's nothing worse than having just bought a bunch of books that you're itching to read while knowing that you have to fulfill a quota of chapters each day. Oh wait, there is something worse: examinations on sundays. Another charming little policy change that has come about this year.
The good news is that I received late Eidee from my aunt in the States the day before yesterday. The bad news is that it has been spent, as of today. I wish I could earn money as fast as I can spend it. Additional good news is that several old school buddies I've been missing are on their way back to Karachi for the vacations this weekend. The bad news is that my exams don't end till Wednesday.
The CS project is turning out to be a real learning experience. I'm learning how to procrastinate worse than I already do, bicker in the middle of presentations and develop a really thick skin for being told off. Next semester, changes must be made.
The only really good thing has been frequent iftaari/lunch outings, which have become the highlight of a day filled with three hours of writing about things I'll have forgotten a month from now. Timeout rocks!
