First week @ K

When I embarked on the journey to Kozhikode it was excitement galore. I was thinking of so many things...will I be able to make friends, will I be able to cope up with the pressure, how will the work pressure, how long will it take for me to settle...Come what may I would blog them.

The first day was for acquainting with the institute. It was raining the whole day and I was told by the locals that I need to get used to the rains. I did some shopping and made friends with some of my batch mates ( We were 80 then and it's not easy to know them all on the very first day :)

The preparatory courses started the next day. It was fun being a part of the 80-odd group and enjoying every minute of the presentations. It was school days revisited.

To be frank, I thought that the prep courses would be boring and just to make up time. I was wrong! Not only were they fun, they gave me a good chance of making friends, to get used to the environment here and have that little edge over the ones reaching late.

We went to the beach(Kappad beach, hope I spelt correct) on the next day. Nothing special about the beach but the group was having loads of fun. I was thrown, literally into the sea. We played football (not exactly, because we were just hitting it into the tides and catching it back). The return journey was much more fun as everyone was shaking their legs to the tunes ( would you believe it, everything was in Tamil or Malayalam)

Am still getting used to the rigour of the school...those night outs, assignements...I haven't had a brush with any till now. Can't say if I'm excited or nervous..probably a bit of both.
