...Then I said, 'I covet truth;
Beauty is unripe childhood's cheat;
I leave it behind with the games of youth:'—
As I spoke, beneath my feet
The ground-pine curled its pretty wreath,
Running over the club-moss burrs;
I inhaled the violet's breath;
Around me stood the oaks and firs;
Pine-cones and acorns lay on the ground;
Over me soared the eternal sky.
Full of light and of deity;
Again I saw, again I heard,
The rolling river, the morning bird;—
Beauty through my senses stole;
I yielded myself to the perfect whole

The Laziest person in the World!!!
Okay so if you are wondering what happened to me since the last post here is an update on what I have been and have NOT been doing:
a) I had done miserably in my 1st GT (Graph Theory) exam so I thought I could put things in order in the 2nd one.. so I was busy working on it, but... well... I dont think I did very well in this one either so.... gayi bhains paani mein.... :-/
b) Watching Vlogs and getting inspired to make one myself, my ideals being Charlieissocoollike (Charlie McDonnell) and Nerimon (Alex Day or do they call him Alex Gay ;) ) But didn't do anything about it.
c) Thinking hard, or hardly thinking for a novice idea to combat Phishing as a part of my Network Security class :-/ Dont think I am getting anywhere on that front either.
d) Staying away from places where I might bump into Andrew (yes, a lot of you have been asking me where the hell is the followup on that front, so for all you "excited" people, the story ended when I said some dreams are better left unfulfilled...)
e) Trying to find friends who could help me file my taxes :D This exercise began around Spring Break and after 1 month, 1 week before the DEADLINE, I am finally DONE. Yesssss!!! I dodged the bullet. And apparently I am one of the one-third loosers who wait for the last 2 weeks before deadline to submit their returns... At least I am not alone.
f) Grad plan submission... Okay, I am an MS degree aspirant, hopefully I will be able to prove my metal and get out with a respectable GPA by 2010. So here's the deal, the Department of CompSc expects all its students to submit their Graduation Plan by the end of the 1st yr in Grad School. Perhaps in the past they had students like me who dint take them seriously and so they had to impose it in a 'little' harshly. Well so what did they do... Blocked my Registration... and since I was waiting for the last moment to register for the Summer, I dint know about the happenings until a day before... Hmmm... (sigh) even after running up and down the Engineering building all day, getting signatures and print outs and everything... they have not lifted the holds yet, as a result this will be the consecutive 2nd semester when I will be paying a LATE Registration fee. So now you wonder how MSU makes all that money for the upkeep of their campus, which by the way is the Biggest one place campus in the States.
g) Lastly, I just received a mail from my Department Secretary, that I have a pay check lying in her desk from past 2 months... :-/ WHAT!!! No wonder I have been living like a little poor girl, trying to make ends meet, only eating at low-end restaurants and drinking cheap wine, for the last 4 months... wait wasnt the check for Feb what happened the 2 months before that... Never mind...
So that's my report on the month that has been... I have got another GT exam on May 6th, and though there is no hope, I, like a true Chevalier, am going to fight till my last breath. I have my Phishing Detection project due this 26th. And then I have to still register for the Summer (so I'll just wait for them to lift the HOLDS off my account) and last but not the least I will sketch out a wonderful plan for my trip to India, and I am going to be posting a whole lot of stuff from my trip HERE... So stay tuned!!!
