So, I came back to room at 8 pm and had my cheat meal. PSIR wasn't done, but Topic 9 is done sans Energy part. Also, added Logistics part as another head in Topic 9 to add more breadth to this particular topic. 

Kal ka subah, I'll upload. Though there are few days left before I go into a month long oblivion (semester exams in August), yet I will be uploading my day's schedule in mornings. This will help me in sticking to 6:30 am library deadlines. 

@Morticia Haha. Weren't you guys sold Delhi Governance Model during recent Municipal Elections? When I saw that happening, I was like fette muh ho tera😂!

@LetsGetThisBread Brokers in Delhi be like- Now I am gonna show you the real deal. This ends up with him taking one to another shanty! Also, girls make a shabby room look aesthetic. For boys, it is the complete opposite. 

Shubh Ratri doston! 

When I lived in ORN I once joked that soon they’ll give us coffins to sleep in and uska bhi rent maangenge. My friends weren’t amused 😬

Today's introspection- Had I not been engrossed with JioFiber guys for 3-4 hours for router pickup,I would have certainly done PSIR tasks.Yet I made full use of the remaining time. Also, did read Energy part but didn't add them in Economics part. This is to avoid duplication kyunki that part overlaps with Topic 11(Economic geo.) of GS1.Toh udhar consolidate karunga.

Achieved-

@LetsGetThisBread This :point_down: is you and your friend during ORN days.Lol

WWE News: The Godfather smoked in The Undertaker's coffin


@Morticia Pass paunch gye tum. But am from unheard(but best-est) place called Kathua.Also,I guess language does overlap with parts of HP.

@Aazaad Ek number ka bakait sheher hai.It requires only an hour of rainfall to see whole governance thing of Delhi go into drains(quite metaphorically).


Kal jaana hai ghar. Thodda pad lenge. Vise bli I had mini attack thinking ki I have only about 3.5 effective months for Mains specific studies left now.

Kal ka schedule in the morning.

Shubh Ratri doston!

somewhere@Neyawn said redbook can be the standard book for environment but i am confused as other sources are average 400/500 pages like shankar or pmfias , and redbook is 123 pages

can i rely on redbook, or should i go with one of the others ?

@mightyraju Its a problem for most cities, I would much rather live in a smaller city than the metros

@khabhacheed you can, I would suggest you should, Environment is current affairs dependent subject for the most part and Redbook covers the basic static portion well, easy to revise at the end when prelims are around the corner.
I read the first 200 odd pages of shankar and was surprised to find good enough summary in about first 20-30 pages in red book.

So, am in train right now. 

Didn't study much today buy did finish Micronotes of Arthashastra. 

@Aazaad Quite true. As I often say it to myself, I want to end up staying in Garhwal hills once I am done with hustle bustle of life.

Guys please suggest any funny /comedy anime /series/movies/youtube channels. Searching for something new to watch. 

Just because the word “anime” is mentioned, I’m wanting to share what YT recommended me this morning and it is freakin’ awesome. Hoping you are aware of the DBZ universe. Enjoy!
