I wake up early in the morning and do my regular yoga exercises under the training of our sports trainer. Then I get ready for the class, which every day begins sharply at 10 AM. The lectures are subject-related interactive sessions in which our faculty remain very conscious of the presence and participation of the students. We are having 50 mins. Lunch break starts at 12:40 PM and then our second shift class resumes from 1:30 PM to 5 PM. Then another phase, that is, the evening time of hostel life begins which begins with tea and refreshment, then playtime, we have study time from 7 PM to 9 PM and then we are called for dinner. After that, I prefer to revise the topic taught in the class so that I remain prepared for the next day’s lecture. And in this way, the peaceful life within the premises of VGI passes.
