Delhi flights booked for Viva

You might be aware - my BITS project Viva is on 3rd Dec (Sat).

I pinged yahoogroups and found 4 others in Bangalore having same Viva date. Some of them had already booked Air Deccan flight tickets - so I also booked the tickets for Dec 2 (Fri) 5.50AM flight to Delhi and back on Dec 4 (Sun) 8.10PM flight to Bangalore.

Pilani, Rajasthan is about 4 hour-drive from Delhi on road.

And once I'm back on 4th midnight, I'm on leave on 5th (Mon), 6th (Tue) and 7th (Wed) Dec 05 - my friends Deepak and Rashmi are getting married on 6/7.

Final Project Report Status

Things happen when they are most unexpected, that's what the Murphys' Laws are all about. And it was no different with me (days of insanity and 12 days later) - which led to too much of delay and pain over and above this project.

Nevertheless, with the timely help from Gun, Satish, Office folks and lots of friends - I were able to come up with a final report by yesterday (3 Nov) evening. Then, Venki ran around with me for the Xerox, binding and speed-posting until this afternoon. Thanks to India Post at Jayanagar 11th Main which is open even on a national holiday like Ramzan today!

Meanwhile, my viva date has been announced at http://www.bits-pilani.ac.in/dlp-home/viva/sshz13.htm. Look for Serial Number 73 which says it's on 3rd Dec 2005.
