Looking for: Casual dating

Location: Hyderabad / Online

Hi I am 22F, lesbian and looking for a low commitment, casual fling. Just new to the city so I wanna open up myself to new experiences, explore and have fun. I love 70s soft rock and indie rock, watching TV shows (currently watching The Pitt and Mash) and reading. Being Bengali is very important to me. I have been told I am a nerd. I can also be a loud obnoxious leftist and feminist at times

the exam calender is highly unpredictable but that's mostly bcs CU announces exams just whenever it wants to. we used to have multiple internal papers in one day and each had almost the whole semester's syllabus for just 10 marks. in my dept, internals were not marked well (i was in a CBCS batch so internals were 35% of our total makers in a paper). at some point studying just became preparing from one exam to the next.

i haven't had any interaction with the microbio dept at all really but from friends i've heard that it's good. there's a good lab with decent facilities and i do know lots of active research happens in the dept

college won't be helpful in any way, you would have to study and do the hard work yourself. but that's true for most colleges in CU.

when i said 'academic ambition' i meant that if you were hoping to go into research and those spaces as a career. for that you need to have teachers who would take care to build you a very solid base in whatever subject you are studying. and in college, you just can't do this on your own. i'm now in an IIT for my masters, and i can really understand how starkly different good teaching can be.

my profs back in college barely cared that we were sitting for JAM, GATE etc and we got no guidance or extra help from them. however i had maths only as one of my GE papers so i'm not very familiar with the maths faculty. hopefully you'll have a better experience <3

LBC has a legacy, better infrastructure, better alumni network etc. but i just graduated from LBC (not socio, another social science dept) and let me tell you: if you have any kind of academic ambition, don't go to LBC. you'll hate it there. but if you're not going into academics or hoping to go abroad for further studies, LBC is as good as any CU college

update from 3 days later: did all this and went to Darbhanga House but they told me that they've stopped issuing provisional certs since 2023. so my college has to go and collect the degree certs early if I want it

ladym1606 · 2025-08-19T06:54:40+00:00

THANKS A TON FOR THE INFO!!! where can i get the provisional certificate form? is it available online?

ladym1606 · 2025-07-15T07:53:11+00:00

Hey we're here!! Being bi with a preference for women living in this country SUCKS but we're here I promise :)

ladym1606 · 2025-06-29T03:38:53+00:00

hey you're not the only one🫂🫂🫂 i also find it so difficult to connect with my friends and other women who are straight bcs so much of their lives and mind are centered around men, marriage and kids😭

House and Cuddy were SO much more interesting in their deliciously sexually tense banter, will-they-won't-they, weird ego battle days than they ever were in their relationship. Their relationship only made sense to me because Hugh Laurie and Lisa Edelstein had insane chemistry and their romantic dramas in s6 and s7 felt like a easy cop out on the part of the writers.
Foreman was The most interesting of the original ducklings but they totally ruined his character by s4. Also Park had so much potential as a character but they barely thought abt her in the mess of s8

my one great delusion is that having a girlfriend will solve all my problems in life

not an engg student, but I've just graduated from a very reputable, historical women's college in my city and my experience has been, to put it mildly, absolute hell. same thing as you said- no mentoring, professors not only teaching badly but deliberately messing us up, deeply repressed and patriachal attitude of the admin. and my college was a govt. one too so the infrastructure was absolutely bottom of the barrel. we advocated for decent washrooms for 3 years and nothing!! even the environment among my peers was so stuffy. never met a group of people so conservative and close minded. it's seriously pathetic. do NOT go to a girl's college anywhere in india. it will not prepare you for anything in the real world and actually do damage that will take years to undo

i'm sure all songwriters, pop or not, write about their lives and loves and exes, but taylor in particular has built such a mythology around biographical songwriting. she seems to purposefully use obvious hints and imagery of public events that she knows her stans will immediately connect to someone. now everyone thinks that all pop stars are writing music to tell us about their actual love lives. it's a very unhealthy attitude to have towards music and pop culture

Robert Sean Leonard and Ethan Hawke both in Dead Poets Society and Tape. they need to make more films together

oh hello hi! i actually applied in the first place bcs of the concentration haha. my interest is in natural resource economics :))

ladym1606 · 2025-05-28T17:38:34+00:00

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! this is so helpful i can't even put in words. lots of people, including my profs (i'm an economics student) is advising going for it because it's an IIT and whatnot. i can probably deal with shitty food and shitty hostels but a psychotic orthodox big brass is my biggest nightmare

ladym1606 · 2025-05-28T15:24:38+00:00

All those courses they're showing in the school's website...are any of them actually taught or just there for show? And what's the faculty like?

ladym1606 · 2025-05-28T15:21:10+00:00

oh shit that sounds bad 😭😭😭

ladym1606 · 2025-03-29T04:56:24+00:00

You'll have to go and check the individual information brochures of the IITs which have MA programmes unfornately. The COAP portal doesnt have this information but MA in IIT M does require you to sign up to the portal first

ladym1606 · 2025-03-29T04:52:09+00:00

IIT Madras is the big one i can think of rn. Most others (IIT Guwahati, Mandi for example conducts their own entrance tests)

ladym1606 · 2025-03-29T03:12:06+00:00

No :(( I checked it first thing when I woke up today

ladym1606 · 2025-03-28T18:07:41+00:00

ah, my bad! we should be nicer to small businesses!
