Oxonian memes

Here's a list of things I keep experiencing and hearing quite often. I leave the interpretation to my readers, as they are very subjective/

You are a sinner if you have not .....

- pulled all-nighters for essays

- felt serendipitous moments of intellectual jolts

- found the clicking argument of your thesis in sleep or during strage moments of a day (including the biological process of mal extraction :P)

- realized that coffee is your best friend for brainstorming

- drawn into the pull of deep thinking, while talking something else

- been blamed for going into a shell for an awakening and flying out wild after you satisfy yourself

- been awake anytime before 1 am and wake up at 2 am to jot down a new idea

- felt a strong desire to loose track of time and be lost in a space of thoughts

- craved to get critiqued to elicit and squeeze the grey matter firmly

- experienced to stay up late in library, in a hope to find yet one more journal to strengthen your reseach paper

- self-doubted yourself for an non-stimulated thoughtful action

well...social life had its own share

- seen plays at Oxford playhouse

- made it to BOPs

- dined in atleast 3 different colleges per term

- heard the famous Oxford Union debates

- met even a single celebrity or genious student

- punted across Isis

- visited London impulsively

- gone for a run aimlessly to exercise that mind

.....more later
