Course worries

Ah well! Here I am occupied with my course projects. There are 3 projects, one for each course, and none of them are particularly easy.

Plus, I'm overcome with this tremendous feeling of lethargy, which I'm just not able to shake off. Procrastination is way too easy!

India avoids the wooden spoon in field hockey WC

This post is very late, but anyhow I just had to put this down. India managed to finish 11th out of 12 teams at the hockey World Cup at Monchengladbach.

This rather pathetic performance was mainly due to a spate of late goals by opposition teams. This meant India only 1 draw in the group stage and that too against lowly South Africa. Yet India lost only 1 game by more than 1 goal (a 6-0 thrashing by the Netherlands).

This can only mean that there is a lack of co-ordination in the team. There are many possible reasons for this: short tenures for coaches, favouritism, the list is endless. It's all down to poor administration, a rather correctable failing. But, does anyone want to correct it? No. Too messy, and plus folks might actually have to work.

The biggest joke of the tournament was the fact that it improved India's world ranking.

All we can do is pray that the team can improve.
