Now that all the excitement of the baby and the wedding have settled down, its back to the boring humdrum of college life.  The nonstep lectures and practicals are back with a vengeance.   This time, there are wards added to the mixture of Pharma and Patho just to make sure that a 3rd year student never gets enough sleep. 

Its just a vicious cycle.  They cover so much in the lectures that you stay up studying so that you can revise and dont get enough sleep.  The next day you're exhausted and you end up sleeping in class and to make up for it you stay up even longer and so the cycle continues. 

Yesterday, we were so exhausted after staying up all night because there was no electricity and giving a Pharma test in the morning.   Me and my friend found this empty room in the ward in the evening.  We closed the door, took off the bedsheets, sprayed disinfectant, and fell asleep.  A little while later, we hear a knock on the door and this army captain on rounds opens the door to find us collapsed on the beds.  Both of us sprang up as he closed the door.  A second later he walks back in and asks me if I was feeling alright.  I doubt that he expected to find a female cadet sleeping in the wards.  Ahh..we're going to be the "hot gossip" for all the captains for a couple of days.  That was embarrasing.
