I ran..!

Yahooo! I ran the 1o K run today morn :D :D :D It was the first time and clocked arnd 100 mins to cross the finish line. We walked and jogged and ran and even after the Run was over,thanks to inertia of motion,couldnt stop :P Err..yeh the legs are stiff and all tht..but then,it was nice :) So,that was the 'First Time' of this month ( Me plans to do atleast one thing for the first time every month :D ) Later Added :- Alright,alright...the "We" were Rahul and I.

The CGPA is arrived at by evaluating both the performances, the SGPA (Scholarship GPA) is determined by the EA alone. Last week we got our EA marks. Today we got the CGPA grades for our last but one term exams. And I sat there staring at the screen. Shocked. Dazed, to be precise. Deaf to the commotion around me. I had topped in one of the papers in my EA. Deserves an 'A', obviously. But the scorecard read '
