Prof. Shastri’s desk, from her usual point of view

Prof. Shastri was checking maths papers when she got a call from her husband. Mr. Shastri was upset that she forgot the diet lunch box that he had specially prepared for her. He was also annoyed that she left the dining table in a mess with all her papers and books piled up. He further accused her of cheating on her diet by eating canteen Pakodas and Aloo Parathas for lunch. Prof. Shastri tried to pacify him by saying that she had been working since morning as she needed to finish checking papers and writing her research proposal by 5 pm that evening and that she even had a headache from skipping lunch. Mr. Shastri was not convinced and reminded her that she hadn’t even read the diet book he had sent and was probably using it as a paper weight in her office. He concluded that she wasn’t serious about her health and proceeded to declare that he will not be cooking for her from then on. Prof. Shastri hung up the phone and in frustration ordered her fifth cup of tea from the canteen and her second plate of Pakodas. From the above description, sketch Prof. Shastri’s desk from her usual point of view.

Portable seating device for a day out

A visit to a museum or a zoo is always something we look forward to with much excitement. But such visits are very tiring too; after about an hour or so we look for a place to sit – a chair or bench, that is never nearby. What if we could carry our own chair everywhere? Design a portable seating device that you could carry in your backpack or hand bag. It should be light enough to carry around, small enough to fit into your bag, easy to use, and good to look at. Show the seating device when: 1) it has just been taken out of the bag and 2) it is ready to sit on.
