Vacations

hi,
Finally am over with my sixth semester and now am going to enter my 4th and final year. i am here in Lucknow on my two month long vacation. so am taking rest, reading books and newspapers, meeting friends.
but am also missing the hectic schedule of college life. at home its like i am on a slow mode or something. time seems to pass by at a snail's pace. evenings are spent sometimes watching the idiot box which seems to become more idiotic the more you see it ( was watching the euro but have stopped now as the team i was supporting i.e. Italy has been thrown out by Spain ) or hanging out with friends.
i also went on a holiday trip to Shimla which was amazing to say the least. had loads of fun there and enjoyed the cool and wet weather( it appeared as the heavens were really upset that we had landed there as it rained there uninterruptedly :D ). the scenery was breathtaking and walking on the streets of Shimla was a divine experience.
Also much to my initial displeasure i am doing my training in Tata Motors for 4 weeks. although i must admit that this exposure is proving to be really beneficial to me in terms of both knowledge and practical growth. its a really huge plant where assembly of trucks and buses takes place. but as i said its also very tiring as i have to be constantly on the move collecting random data and witnessing things. but i have made a few friends out there so its not all that boring.
my semester results came and i must say that i have even shocked myself with this performance which was pretty moderate. but i can forgive myself for this as i got a job so it kinda cancels the whole thing. :)
i guess that's it for now. i doubt anything exciting is going to take place while i am here. if it does will surely let everybody know.
