Second Year-ite's Joblessness Leads to Pointless Writing Part-1

It's 4 am, I have a first hour class tomorrow, and I'm not sleepy..hence the random, useless blogpost. This post contains crap, is about random nonsense and basically has everything to do with the most useless things in BITSian life...and if that does not compel you to jump up and read this..it's best if you go back to sleeping(if you're in IPC) or go back to sleeping(if you're in your room) [other options for bitsians could have included DC++..but then that's not active yet..so i just mentioned the sleeping in IPC and the sleeping in the rooms bit..in case you're a BITSian and you're doing somethig else besides the aforementioned activities..a trip to Sarvi* is highly recommended.]
Anyways, so I'm back on campus, and its nearly been a week into the semester. A lot of stuff has actually changed on campus, the "peeli" buildings of "Peelani" have been repainted with...well..what else?yellow!..but before you get me wrong here...its actually a MUCH BETTER SHADE OF YELLOW. No, I mean seriously, honestly.. pretty innovative *grim face*. Some bhawans have been renovated, and people who don't happen to be lucky enough to live in those few are seen walking around campus, staring jealously at them.
The redis are gone, and I really have no idea of how the KG mess people are coping up(my heartfelt sympathies), but then, they'll be back soon, and we can all hope that students would be able to survive until then. So much for campus news(I told you it this post was crappy. Don't blame me now. ).
          Whats up on my side? A lot actually. My sem started with me getting a hopelessly hopeless PR number 905, so, as you might have guessed, I'm in a soup(that is so much of my normal state actually, that I really don't bother anymore. People shouldn't bother too much about their circumstances.) < This last line I read on the back cover of some book on spirituality that I found in the library, and I did not bother to read. You see, I'm following their advice. I'm not bothered enough by my circumstances so as to go about reading..erm...such nonsensical philosophical stuff.>
So, yeah, well, getting back. That 905 PR and the blessed CG card(it was withheld < thankfully >, got it on the day of the registration) made sure that I was not mentally capable of making a timetable for the registration, and I opted for DTC* . Filled in a random elective, and worse case scenario: GOT IT!!! (don't get me wrong here, the elective's pretty cool. I'm just born lazy, so 4 extra classes a week kind of freaks me out.)
And in the past one week I have learnt that 1. There is much more to pigeons than meets the eye. 2. Cooking rice is the ultimate expression of a top-down approach 3.My cycle and I should not be within a 5m radius of each other. An accident just happens out of nowhere.(even when I'm just standing with it.)
Oh and now that I'm a senior *look, i'm showing off :P*, I have met a LOT of juniors, and boy! whoever would have thought that taking intros could be so tiring!!!. But more on that later, its 5 am now, I'd better get to bed....err...right after I figure out what to do with all the insects in my room.
Oh and before I forget:
GLOSSARY:
1. SARVI: (n) Refers to the Birla Sarvajanik Hospital, a place where BITSians land up when a trip to medical center fails. 
2.DTC: Difficult Timetable Case. If you're this, you've probably cursed and blamed everything under the sun for your bad PR number.Have given dirty looks to all the guys in your wing who've got a better PR and have now resigned to your fate in an I-have-attained-nirvana kind of way.
