So the picture above describes the life of a Student like me...Going to the details
Bed - The primary source of enjoyment, relaxation and comfort in the life of a Grad Student.
Pillows - The serve a variety of purposes, from supporting the head while going to sleep, to supporting the back while watching a movie, to being used as weapons during fights.
Beer - This great drink is what generally keeps the Grad Students going, from providing the much needed carbohydrates, to being a wonderful ice breaker, to being the best socialising tool, this is surely one of the most important tools to bear the ordeal of Grad Life...
I-Pod - I love Apple for this wonderful gadget. It holds all my songs, and still has few GBs left, and I am quite happy with the sound quality. From providing entertainment while going to the school, or helping pass time while going anywhere. This gadget is always a wonderful companion.
Note Books - We need these for noting down all the notes we try to take in class during lectures, and also to tear pages for home work assignments and mid terms.
Papers to grade - Almost all Grad Students sometimes in their school life hold the post of a TA / Reader / Grader. So they always end up grading a bunch of under grad exams / assignments. This is fun sometimes when you come across really innovative ideas & thoughts..
Chocolates - An instant source of energy to an instant source of happiness to just plain fun, Chocolates are wonderful to have in your desk...
Stationary - To keep a record of all we learn, to give a proof of our knowledge. Pens, Pencils, Stapelers, Pen Drive, among the most important accessories for a Grad Student.
Cookies - I dont know about all the Grad Students, but atleast for me its nice having a pack of cookies on my desk, and eat one or two in between the assignments and as an odd time snack..
Quarters - For the weekly / fortnightly / monthly Laundry requirements...
Cards - From the most important School I - Card, to the Debit / Credit card to the Grocery store membership card, some more necessities of Grad Life.
Cell Phone - The most important & usefull tool for communication ever invented !!!
Text Books - From the self owned ones (New & Used) to the one borrowed from the Library, these are the tools which sometimes help in understanding simple topics made very complicated by the Professors lectures..
Bike Helmet - An important piece of armor to protect the very usefull brain, which is already burdened by the excessive work load of Grad Life
So in the end all these things, along with a few more, help us endure the Graduate Student Life !!
