I'm being misunderstood and misinterpreted. Apart from that I've completed my examinations for this semester.Hopefully ! Choosing the right open elective could bestow you the boon of experiencing an extra holiday in the semester. The way I messed up my electives, no one else could have and any faint possibilites of exceeding the limits I've set are rather loose contingencies. But Andrew Dufrense is still an inspiration providing me sufficient scope for Hope. The first of these exams had been terrible. I had some bizarre feelings during the paper which I don't remember having anywhere between the June of 1985 and December of 2004. There's always a trade-off. Today was my lucky day. I almost thought I lost my source for the Open Book examination conducted today. Believe me. For a course with 4.5 credits to it, Computer Networks is no piece of cake. The fact that the book was my senior's bothered me the most. Until yesterday night I never laid an eye on the book, involved myself in a room where people were discussing things, but later slept like a log. Before that I prepared myself for any disaster that could have befell me this morning. To my luck, I found a source adequate enough to prepare a mark scoring carbon copy by the end of two and a half hours. The girl who sits in the row next to me is reputed to score good grades. So I never had any second thoughts before I started taking chances. Maybe I should have gone upto her after the exam and asked if she did her paper well, just in case, to confirm my secure state.
Yesterday was my UCD examination. We were given the same Aura for the GOMS analysis question. I'm sure no one took a proper shot at the question which in itself was very abstract asking us to explain the collaboration between the various elements of the video. The sites that were supposed to be judged by us were unfortunately our own institute's and the intranet's webpages. I've been using both of them for so long, been accustomed to the system for so long, I found it very hard to act as an impartial user who finds out the merits and flaws of the site. At the end of an hour, I was freaked out because the question indicating 30 minutes of solving time had already consumed a quarter more than an hour. But to my relief, our instructor was munificent enough to provide us with an extra hour. Maybe he deduced from the conspectus that we really needed some extra minutes if we were to take some sensible attempts at the question paper. After that, as I'd expected I had to follow my instructor to his room to discuss my project. I tried to assure him of its completion but I guess he still isn't convinced about the validity of the idea and the possibility of submission.
Now, I seem to have issues with public relations. Some people have started developing strange misconceptions about me. I cannot completely discard them as wrong, because no one ever means something without a reason. There will be no problem with that thought. In due course of time I'm sure everyone will understand who I'm; I'm necessarily not a weirdo if they consider me one. My pseudo-vacation will at last begin from tomorrow. I hope to make the most of it. I'm actually pretty scared of the kind of project I might have to face at my internship.
