CSE 2022: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine

This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.

--------

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”

— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

@sjerngal Sharing a drawing as promised. Have a good day, everyone :)


Wow,

can you tell what you used to draw? Oil pastels? 

Now you have motivated me to draw. 

Hey, the medium is soft pastels. It is difficult to blend oil pastels. You can still try with oil pastels too. There are some ways to blend the colours which require some effort though.

I myself was lacking the motivation to draw, good to know that I have motivated you in this way. Will wait for your drawing then! 😄

Oh never knew you could use soft pastels like that.( I always wondered how people used soft pastels.) Loved your drawing. 

Started drawing, doing it slowly, will finish on my break day for sure and may be post then.

@Steph_Curry It is Toucan imo 


Thanks.

I always thought a photo of just one bird can't be this good. But then I realised..
Toucan.  🙊

Yes, was supposed to be a toucan 😅

I knew it was a toucan. Beautiful drawing. Please share more of these!

BTW you'll ignored the 'Toucan ~ Two can' joke. 😕

Lame jokes are meant to be ignored ..

@Rubi990 Please tell me it wasn't lame. 🥺

Oops, I did not even realise it was a pun 😂

Hey, I have paid the fees for CSE 2022 through Net Banking. Money has been deducted but the website is saying failed. When I click on If you have already paid fee through Net Banking( In case of Failure ) you can update the status by clicking here it is note working. Can anyone help what should I do now? Should I wait for 24 hours like a standard procedure in most of the forms or should I call them if they have any number?
