The following are the 'questions' Prabha ma'am wanted us to 'answer' as part of the assignment. The green ones are her 'questions' and the red ones are the actual 'answers' that came to my mind though I've written something else in my notebook.
How to reduce the usage of plastic by stop using it
Where does this plastic come from a factory, dammit!
Process is ecofriendly of course not,***
What happens when you throw plastic it falls
where does it go nowhere.it has no legs,for heaven's sake!
how to use fossil fuel,petrol,diesel etc natural gas as usual
how to reduce water consumption what! reduce and die?

Creamy Pigs
This is an update on GC. I went to class late at 8.15am. Ma'am commented about my regular irregularity.(as if I care) I didn't listen to most of the gibberish she was talking. She said she'll give us her daughter's project(she thought we're all dumb ducks?). Then she said she'll give us her CD after checking for viruses. A CD on vermiculture(she's so obsessed with it!). But what caught my attention is this. She asked whether we knew what the 'oil in the pig's body no' is used for. Teena said that it is used in Bubble gums. Prabha ma'am said that they were also used in chocolates. 'The pigeons are used for transportation. The feather from here (she pointed her waist!) is taken and made creamy and put in creamy chocolates'. I was like 'yuck... this woman wants to make all hate chocolates. Shakthi felt the same it seems(the darling did an amazing job of imitating her when we bunked the last hour today)
We were talking about sexual abuse against children and slowly drifted towards Rafa, Rafael Nadal of course. Again, she imitated him and his spanish accent (you have lot of sponsors ae?, seriously) This Rivka...oh my god, where are we? Alright back to Prabha ma'am and the creamy pigs(there's an AND in between okay?). Last class she was talking about worms as if they are tasty spaghetti and yesterday she was savourig the thought of creamy blah,blah in creamy chocolates (Deeeeep inside my mind she was saying"creamy pigs yumm yumm") She has a sadistical pleasure in such stuff. Did we ask her whether the chocolates and pigs are creamy. We don't care, atleast I don't as longas I get chocolates to eat. I wonder what we'll have to undergo in her classes this entire semester. Ennak koduma Saravanan!

Environment, Al Gore and my GC course
This is the result of today's Environmental Studies class with Prabha ma'am. I was actually looking forward to this hour which turned out to be a pain the *** for, the four of us who were sitting in the first row. Mathu had tears in her eyes trying not to laugh. The bench was practically shaking with her and Shakthi laughing their heads off. I felt like banging my head on the wall. Mira, the solemn, ever so sincere Mira wore a Dhoni-ish expression on her face while scratching me. What can I do!
It was a horrile hour, seriously. And we have four hours a week, back to back. God save us. To be honest, I had been having that my knowledge about this particular issue was, well, something near excellence. But after today's class I found myself to have a negligible information on it. I never knew Vermiculture being a money mine, Prabha ma'am's 40 or so cousins, the 'issue' of the after college hour, all constitute environmental concern. I'm not joking, period, this is what I was able to grasp from Prabha ma'am's lecture(or was it?)
Then I had a question that I asked Shakthi(can't ask the lec, of course). All these Al Gore types are so keen to drive home the point of saving the planet. They're drilling the same points over and over again into our pea nut sized brains, or that's what they presume. But these ours-was-a-wonderful-generation people were the reason that we have got such a dirty and strife filled world. We never asked for the World Wars or the ethnic wars. Not the hunger deaths, nor the so called Global Warming. Now they want us to think about our future gens, telling us to be responsible and make sure the people to come inherit a safer and cleaner world. But we inherited an Earth that was nothing but an enormous ball of garbage and corpses. no one seems to think about that. I'm not saying we won't help clean the world, but just thought about the unfair treatment we people are suffering. Giving Nobel prizes to people who made sure we inherited a garbage ball and telling us to clean the shit. Why don't we start another organisation, like so many they're having, to tell the old boys to shut up and go sleep in their graves?
