Each day breaks with so many activities piled up for the day. The obvious candidates will be the assignments. I never knew the meaning of assignments until I stepped into graduate school. Some assignments are fun to solve and you enjoy every moment of problem solving. Some others literally suck the blood out of your body. Those deadly deadlines keep haunting your dreams ! You may forget to brush, eat or even breathe but not those deadlines. Assignments before exams are the craziest one could ever imagine. The pressure is so much that you don't have time to think of what can be done but you feel relieved if you are done for the moment.
Cooking is yet another time demanding activity amidst this hectic schedule. The worst scenario, according to me is cooking when you are hungry. Even worse will be when the food is not actually edible after it is cooked !! But then again our friend assignment will demand our company and immediately we forget our mess with cooking. Social life is something graduate students must learn by taking extra credits ! Strange but true is this fact that almost every graduate student is deprived of social life and is limited to a problem solving machine which responds to external stimuli !
The concept of weekend is redefined for graduates. Weekends are an excellent opportunity for them to stay alive for next one week, meaning finish their home works and assignments. The universities are so generous in offering you weekends to solve the problems. Forget those partying habits at least for the first semester, else you will be screwed. Google calendar will be of immense help because every hour a day has its due! But then again the pleasure of seeing your grades after this battle is something beyond the explanation in words !
