[Review] Nokia E72
Basic Features
Weighing 22gms lesser than the Nokia N97 Mini, the Enterprise series, Nokia E72 (128gms) is light, yet loaded with enviable features. 4.4″ tall by 2.34″ wide by 0.39″ thick, it is definitely a comfortable device to hold on. With steel plate and chromed edges, Nokia did improve on the design to make the phone a solid and a gorgeous looking device.
A screen size of 2.3″ with 320 x 240 display size (QVGA) and 16M colors, it comes with a front-facing VGA camera and a light sensor at the top right corner. Bright chrome runs around screen and the keyboard and carries over to the rear battery cover giving it an exquisite, neat and graceful look.
The E72 has a full QWERTY keyboard occupying the same space to that of the screen, with special and shortcut keys which include calendar, e-mail and contacts filling in the centre. It also includes the “Navi Keys”, also called as the optical track pads lying between the special and shortcut keys.

Ethnic Day
Ethnic Day is a celebration denoting the ways of sharing cultural characteristics and traditionality. At Oxford, we celebrated the day with so much fun and enthusiasm. When I reached college, I thought I landed up in Kerala. Damn! I could see a huge group of Keralites in their traditional dress. I just smiled and ran inside. Girls were looking pretty in their sarees and guys were looking smart in their kurthas. Everyone were busy admiring each other and clicking photos. Our lecturers grew mad as were roving around. Like we cared.
Our lab was supposed to start at 9:30, but we took our own sweet time and entered the lab at 10:15 
As we entered, it was like hell in there. AC’s were turned off and we were literally sweating. But that didn’t bother us much as we continued clicking snaps inside the lab itself 
I couldn’t take the heat anymore and I just walked out pulling 3 of my friends to the so called cafetería to have a cup of coffee. This temporary canteen sucks big time!
After wasting a lot of time and playing around near the canteen, we got back to the lab and started the photo session again Few were playing Counter Strike and few were honestly executing the programs. As our lab ended, we decided to go out and celebrate the day coz our college management didn’t encourage us to celebrate it inside the college. So, we headed to a Chinese restaurant and had our lunch. It was very hot, so I changed my kurtha and wore a t-shirt. Yes, I did carry a t-shirt with me. We then headed to Mc Donalds and it was the best time we had. Thanks to Shruthi and Arun for cracking their stupid jokes and making us laugh our heads off! (If they both start laughing, I bet you can’t control your laughter. Crazy people )
It was overall a great day. Thanks to our seniors for making this day happen
