CSE 2021: Plan / Strategy / Daily Routine
Hello 2021 aspirants. I thought it would be nice if we can share what we are doing and intend to do with one another here.
This could be a thread for discussing everything prep for 2021.
No one method fits all but to see the plans and progress made by fellow aspirants might help with the finer details of preparation and also keep one on track.

@12432TrivendrumRajdhani I have always thought of asking you but aaj socha chalo puch hi lete hain.
Why have you kept train number and name as username? Any special memory? Journey?
Aaaj ho jaye khulasa. Nation wants to know.
Dear Mr Bolt, some people are obsessed with cars, some like to know everything about bikes, and some are walking encyclopedia when it comes to the latest happenings in the tech world- they know the upcoming gadets in and out.
Similarly, some of my grey cells behave as if they are the best 'railfans' in India :)
Being a railfan is a peculiar hobby. They are obsessed with the "a-z of Indian railways". For example, for me, knowing about the nomenclature of train and stations, understanding the ticketing system (like i have a decent Tatkal success ratio), and knowing about the routes, are some of the things which excites me. I do this in my free time, just out of sheer curiosity. Like: "Why this train was named as 'Matsyagandha' Express?", or randomly 'practising' for tatkal for some of the busiest routes and class, just to 'feel the rush'. Before the advent of internet, I dunno if you guys remember, there used to be a sarkari book called "Rail at glance". Yes, I spent my childhood reading those books. In north India, there goes a saying that you're not a true 90's middle class kid, if your household did not had, Rapidex English speaking book and that railway wala book, preferably purchased from AH Wheeler's stall.
So, one day few years back, we were doing some railfannig in the national capital. Few of us decided to visit the now forgotten Delhi's historicRing railway system. Our plan was to hop in and out from NZM (Oh I still remember those winters and the magical realism of Chanakyapuri rly stn, literally burried in the otherwise posh locality).
During that trip, I happen to saw Trivendrum Rajadhani in its blazing avtaar, and my immediate reaction was: wow, that is literally the longest Rajdhani, and probably the longest fastest train in India (as Gatiman, Tejas, and Shatabdi's are for short distances). I dunno how, but I equated Trivendrum Rajadhani with civils preparation. "Aapko lamba bhi jana hai, aur tezi se bhi jaana hai", is the precise logic why my handle has this name 🙈
Though right now my average speed is nothing more than a goods train. Probably after the creation of Dedicated Freight Corridor, shayad thodi speed badh jaaye. Achha sorry bad joke.

Friends, I have managed to get absolutely nothing done today, except the newspaper. I have had zero willpower to do anything today. I’m just going to count today as a personal day and come back strong tomorrow. No excuses.
Today I haven’t been a bread girl, I have been a bed girl…. As in a “stay-in-bed-and-consume-unhealthy-volumes-of-the-internet” girl.

Able to finish quantum target, couldn't do ethics.
24/06
- Quantum mech - 9hours
- Epfo shizz - 30mins
Completed both the targets. Messed up my sleep cycle last night by pulling an all nighter. That's why the spam on songs thread. XD
Quantum would be completed with pyq in next 2 days.
Will be taking break from posting daily targets here. I left social media to get rid of my ridiculous urge, now that is being reflected on forum as well. Automatic finger movement over ctrl+t>type fo>enter. Constant mental involvement into hourly vaccination update, covid news is going too far now. It will take few weeks to get rid of this. Hopefully!
