We were having a hot spell for a week or so ...it was impossible to live in non-ac rooms...and today we have it...! Rain! Cold winds blowing now. 25 C temperature! Oh how I love rain!
As it happens, something else has dampened my mood. We are supposed to submit our Final year group project on next week. The other three members in the group don't give a dime about the project...I have to do the literature review and write the theory part in the project while they waste their time!! One of them has a training goingon..so I won't be blaming her. But the other 2!!! Anyways...
How was your day? How is the weather there?

I'm so happy you're getting rain now and hope it helps cool things down in your area! 
Oh, nice! That's a wonderful temp, even if you need to be outside working.
Have you talked with your professor about the other people in your group? I definitely would, even if it just means they'll get a lower participation grade than you earn. (I always hated carrying other people when they didn't care enough to help earn a good grade.)
It's a beautiful day in my part of the US today. (We're expecting rain but that shouldn't happen until this evening.) The temp now is 73F/28C and we have a cool breeze blowing... It feels wonderful outside... I am having problems with all the pollen from the trees and grass right now, though. *shrug* Nothing can be done about that, though.
I got my car back from the mechanic earlier this morning, so we can take care of several things that have been put on hold for a while... It sucks when you don't have access to a car where I live.
I hope you're enjoying your night. (! am thinking 1 am is a little late for a young woman like you to be up and playing online...

The final year project will be evaluated by a professor from another college so the project should be good enough. I tried telling our current professor but she couldn't do much about it.
You have dust allergy from the pollen? I too have that.
Hehe yes I wrote this discussion at around 12:10 a.m. I guess and then went back to sleep

@Dreamerby Since myLot is based in the US, it uses timestamps from here to say when a discussion was posted, not India.

I'm glad you got some rain. It's frustrating when a team doesn't do the work equally. We had some heavy rain yesterday; and the next few days will be rainy.

That is good, it is too bad when areas lack rain.

Hot and humid, but not near as bad as it could be. I will take what little blessings I can get if I'm being honest.
