Haddi went out of the b<strong>at</strong>hroom to find someone who<br />
would help him put Chashmish on a bed. He found<br />
“Champak” roaming in the wing. Both of them made<br />
sure th<strong>at</strong> Chashmish was sleeping comfortably in his<br />
room a few minutes l<strong>at</strong>er. Haddi then took a quick<br />
shower and raced to the mess in order to c<strong>at</strong>ch<br />
breakfast. After which he came back to his room and<br />
crashed. The gang woke up well past noon and<br />
conglomer<strong>at</strong>ed around 3 in the canteen to get<br />
something to e<strong>at</strong>. Now th<strong>at</strong> it had become sure th<strong>at</strong> they<br />
will have to stay in the <strong>summer</strong>, all of them had to<br />
register in the hall office. They spent the remainder of<br />
the afternoon talking to people in the hall office making<br />
sure they didn’t have to leave their current rooms. It<br />
took some convincing but since it was a very large<br />
group, the hall office finally agreed. It was yet another<br />
sweltering hot day and by the time everything in the<br />

super stressed. CHM201 was the pre-requisite of several<br />
core courses across a number of different departments<br />
which were going to be offered in the fall semester. If<br />
the course didn’t get offered in the <strong>summer</strong> and they<br />
didn’t pass it, it basically meant none of them would be<br />
gradu<strong>at</strong>ing on time. Within 10 min a 50 people strong<br />
group was heading towards the DOSA office to convince<br />
the authorities to offer the course during <strong>summer</strong>. Even<br />
after an hour long discussion, the best the authorities<br />
could say th<strong>at</strong> they would talk to Prof Roy and inform<br />
the students tomorrow. The entire group came back to<br />
the hostel in despair. Stress had just increased 10 folds<br />
within the past 3 hours. The seven of them decided to<br />
have an early dinner grab a few bottles of beer and go<br />
straight to the rooftop. The plan executed to perfection<br />
by the minute. By 8 0’clock all of them were sitting<br />
comfortably on the rooftop. After some initial worries<br />
about the course, everyone decided to let go and enjoy
