Really experienced all parts of corporate in these 2 months, campus to corporate and now again campus for one last year

Seeing all my batchmates and friends posting their first day office views, adulting really be hitting hard

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

@xxKhushix The calm before the storm🙂

Finally starting that 24hr tutorial i’ve been dodging for a week straight…
dear brain and laptop, pls be good to me

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

Packing the whole wardrobe for 2 months coz nothing seems enough and I’ll still regret not taking the few clothes I’m leaving at home

@AsthaVijay5 Straight out of a movie

3-day exam gap recap:
Day 1 – “Let’s be productive”, did some project work
Day 2 – Housing hunt for the internship (hell.)
Day 3 – Full-blown regret for not studying earlier and still not studying.
A classic academic arc.

@kanamika20 Vo toh hote rehte hain..

Studying electives after you’re already done with core subjects is such a nightmare… not that I studied much for those either

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

All my https://t.co/KZMyBnekEc friends are out there posting farewell stories on Instagram, while I’m just here trying to survive one more year without getting a back🫠

@AsthaVijay5 @duolingo As long as u r studying for both of us🫣

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

How is it that I’m out here protecting a cartoon owl’s feelings more than my CGPA? End sems can wait- @duolingo streaks are more important

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

@PlrShow @NotebookLM Yeah, exactly! If they connect to @IEEEXplore , @ResearchGate , Springer, etc., it’ll pretty much become a one-stop solution for doing all research work

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

Love @NotebookLM , one of the best tools for research. Makes everything 100x easier and faster — checking if my idea’s already done, finding better alternatives, writing citations…

Only catch: you have to upload all the relevant papers yourself.

Went from zero to writing code in five different languages in the same project like I’m summoning ancient spells. IDE’s on fire, errors everywhere, versions in conflict, and I’m 90% sure one of the files is speaking Parseltongue.

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

Spent 6 hours today studying.
Well… studying which YouTube playlist, blog, course, or PDF might be the one.
Actual learning? That’s tomorrow’s problem.

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

Me: Just gonna tweak my resume on Overleaf real quick
Overleaf: “Where should this line go?”
Me: “Just align it nicely.”
Overleaf: shifts entire layout, breaks formatting, summons ancient LaTeX demon

It’s just like centering a <div> — but with more emotional damage.

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

Selected. Radio silence. Offer letter months later. Corporate romance at its finest.

[Astha Panda @AsthaPanda02]

Brain: “This task will take forever and ruin your day.”
Reality: starts working “Wait… that’s it?”
Me: Forever cursed to repeat the same mistake, despite knowing better.🫠

Miss the time when college fests were just about vibing and not about managing everything. By the time pronite started, I was so dead that I completely zoned out—saw Mohit Chauhan live but couldn’t even enjoy it. The whole experience of being in the OC was definitely sth tho…
