The urge to avoid the right-up-the-front benches is pervasive across all student communities. I have usually always been someone who magnetically gets attracted towards the back benches (in school because of height, now because of name, but mostly because of choice). And of course, the last bench phenomenon is an interesting game. Sitting on the very last bench is risky; high chances of being called ahead! It is safer to take a middle position in the last but one row. However, in a land where this kind of smartness permeates every brain, it also becomes very difficult to get that place, because of the high demand.
Anyways, I digressed again. Even as we became comfortable in our chosen thrones (location-wise), the prof asked everyone seated behind to occupy the benches in front - because - we were having some sort of a photoshoot! :-P . Trying to capture students while they are learning in the classroom ;-) . Now things like that are no attraction to me. But to one self-obsessed guy like Pachpan, it was an opportunity that just should not be missed. So, off we were, to the 2nd bench or something. Can't remember the last time I was encountering a lecture from that close a range :-| . In all fairness to the prof, he allowed students to go back once the photoshoot was over :D , but I was overcome by too much inertia to change my place again.
Had an INDEX meet at night. Turned out to be one helluva discussion. Rules, rural, rumour. But always interesting to see extreme views eventually converging at one single point :-)
