Day 10 - Of many many demotivated men

25th June began at 10:30 am having slept really late the previous night. I am almost through with the second season of Lost and things have really spiced up. I really liked the episode with Hurley's split-personality being revealed. Very Fight Club-esque...
I watched some more Lost after waking up which meant that I went completely unprepared for the first Advanced Marketing Research class. Prof Prantosh Banerjee really kicked some butt in his lecture. Though he has scared us a little by giving us a huge amount of preparation to be done for tomorrows double-bill, I like the way he teaches. He peppers the lecture with anecdotes, each more humorous than the previous. At the same time, he somehow very ably uses scathing sarcasm to motivate the students, a rare talent indeed. We have to be prepared with chi-square test, regression and ANOVA for tomorrow's class. Let's see how that goes.
Dinner-time. The chicken in the canteen was surprisingly good today. However that was compensated for, by inedible veg stuff, or so my Jain friends told me. Nice! (wink)
Post that, I watched Brazil and Portugal put up a thoroughly sleep-inducing show at Durban. Since a draw was good enough for both the teams to go through to the next round, they did just that. Even the normally showy Cristiano Ronaldo looked subdued. Very poor stuff dudes.
We later headed to the auditorium for a batch meeting which, as usual, went completely off-track after while. Some people just internalize the art of doing CP anywhere and everywhere. Good grief!
Post the meeting I went back to watch Spain beat Chile 2-1. It was a good match as Spain had everything to play for. David Villa curled in an amazing long-range shot into an empty net. Torres, as usual, did not do any scoring.
There's lots to be done tomorrow. Time to hit the sack. Nite fellas!
