and finally i'm back.
the past three four months were the most challenging in my life coz of ma boards. i wished to say abt my boards but now i'm not interested. i like to deal with the present than with the past. so i'm sharing my experiences at the ntse camp.

the camp was supposed to be for all the whiz kids of kerala- that is, the top 1.8% who cleared the prelims of ntse. but there were exceptions like me who were just idiotic.

i stayed with gopu at sbt holiday home at vazhuthacaud for the 10 days of the camp. it was real fun being with gopu. both of us had more or less common interests like music, math, movies and cricket. so we enjoyed our stay thoroughly. i should say the experience of staying there was much better than the camp itself.

the classes were taken by oldies, most of them wearing our very own mundu and with grey hair or no hair at all!!!! the teacher who took mat was proff.gowrikkuty and she was simply superb. i wonder how quickly she does those mental ability questions. she is really special with a hi tech brain. and the max teachers were also really good. both number's sir (4got his name) and geometry sir (e krishnankutty or something) were really MAD ABOUT MAX. rarely can we find such teachers with so much interest in their topic. its just like they r made for that and nothing else. all the teachers were the best in their own fields in kerala. but to befrank, i dint listen to some of those physix classes but was playing bounce on gopu's mobile. the social teachers were also cool coz we dint feel like sleeping even in those driest of topics like ancient history or the constitutuion of india.

the students were all (no, not all of them, to my pleasure) buji's or weirdos or nerds or padippists or whatever it is. except for a few like me, gopu, nevin, ashwin, shamil, nikhil etc, every1 fought in the mornings to get the front seats so that they can listen furiously. and it was fun to have lotsa weirdoz around....kids were soooo intelligent that they turned abnormal. some of them r so crap that they don't like to ta;lk abt anything outseide the ntse syllabus.

our main interest was in GOAL-ADI, but we failed in our attempts. we r not gud enuf 2 flirt on buji's. though we set high standards in mouth looking, all of us turned out to decent in appearance. there was a gilrl called caroline from st thomas, tvm. i've seen her b4 in the india's child genius quyz show by siddhartha basu. gopu with all his guts n shamelessness went n asked her "hello, r u caroline?". yes came the reply. and he contd "the one at india's genius child ??". he said the name wrongly, but she dint care, she went with a smile. and that was the lone event of a rajagirian trying to hit a goal at the camp.

enuf of uzhappal at tvm n i am back at cochin. so preparing for ntse by watching television, playing basketball, orkutting etc.
