VI sem...

Sincere apologies for Mani, as i totally forgot to mention his name in our Mocha,Ascendas,Star Rock  and tea kadai visits, he also wanted publicity and was angry on me for not including his name in the previous blog. 

Semester exams finally ended, heaved a sigh of relief after completing the hectic schedule of exams, lack of sleep , etc etc  everything took a toll on me , fell ill for a cupla days . We get sem holidays jus for some 3-4 days, whereas other colleges open after a cuple of weeks . So half of my leave went begging , but my other friends were still going there ( Mani,Vb and harri).I joined them two days later :P .By this time , i should say we had mostly  been to all the places in Chennai , Bessi,Marina,amethyst,mocha etc etc etc . U name it  , would ve gone. 

So after the so called 4 days of Sem leave , Coll reopened again :(. But I also felt coll was fun, instead of lazying around in the house.So even semester , Symposium time . Most of the colleges conducted their symposiums in odd sem , but ours was a lil different.This time , it was our turn to conduct the symposium, Our Dept sympo is named Pranav, so it was time for Pranav-07, we had to resurrect it as it was kind of a no show last time @ Pranav -06. Our class had so many creative minds , so it was quite sure if all unite , it would be one blockbuster. But , 'll everyone unite or keep stayin with their group was a real ?. So Sponsorship brouchers were ready , and again time for time for ODs. Well , I still remember the way i got my first OD letter during our sympo signed. I was wearing a Jean(thou banned in AU, our college never really bothered) and my sick HOD noticed it and said that she wont allow me to go to company wit Jeans ( who the F was gonna go to company anyway), Then i went to my classmate's hostel room , changed my pants and got the OD letter signed . Despo Stuff!! As expected , the 4 of us headed direct to our II home ( no prizes for guessing again :P). This became a daily routine, as days passed by , many others from our class joined us.(woof broken bhai chopra hari etc etc). When we were kinda broke, we used to head to Sathyam and get the 10rs ticket irrespective of which ever movie was being screened . But , again we did collect some sponsors from some companies, tis time we were smart enough to get sponsors only  from the companies which sponsored us last time instead of walking into various companies and being sent out decently. 

Days were flyin and our sympo date was finalized Feb 9 , 2007. Anna Univ 's sympo Kurukshetra and IIT's Saarang ( now would miss saarang and attend symposiums, if given a choice , i would prefer to attend saarang rather than volunteering in my symposium :P) and was also scheduled around the same time , so considering the dates of these 2 sympo's we finalized it on 9th cos it did not clash with any other thing

Work started in full swing. We were split into groups and were alloted our committee, I was again part of the Mock Interview committee. Then the Poster was developed , this time it came out really well, 1000 times bttr than our senior's . It was time to distribute the posters to colleges . Again me and  my friends set off to the colleges in our own bikes . Long rides are really awesome , that too on smooth free roads , there's an adrenalin rush when yur bike crosses 100kmph. Still remember the day wen we were fagging our way to glory jus outside of Panimalar engineering college on the highway road after distributing the posters . Must have easily travelled some 100+ kms that day. Very rarely we were at college, if we were in the college , we used to move into another classroom called CREATIVE ROOM, Its jus like Innovation Station of IBM :P. We used to play cricket continuously for hours together. Days passed and everythin was nearly ready Banners, sponsors etc etc. Ours was the 4th symposium after CIVIL,IT and CSE. Just an average amt . of crowd turned up for IT n CSE symposium as it clashed wit AU n IIT symposium. So , there came the eve of our sympo, huge banners were erected. Banners everywhere in the mini sized campus of ours. Most of us were there till all the work got over . We all left by 3 am . The big day arrived , Damn again formal full sleeveshirt wit tie :((. After the presentation session got over , we were all shocked, So much crowd , more than what we expected . We ran short of food and many other things . It was really a blockbuster hit !! Finally it came to a close , all of us were so fkn enervated that we laid down on the benches outside the classrooms. Phew!! Happy times ,were shortlived, results had come out . This time I became stoic w.r.t the results . I had 6 backs, dint bother me too much as i had got used to it in the previous year. Arrears became an integral part of my coll. life :P. 

This time again we had a few new staff

 Principles of Management - Siji- HOD- Better i don comment on her else my BP will shoot up.

 Numerical Methods- Ramya - Never cared to listen to her class, so I donno how she taught and she also dint bother to  trouble the students

 Digital Communications- Dont know her name :P- She used to teach the walls , jus my perception. 

 Computer Architecture - Yamuna - She was jus one year senior and our coll pass out , so u can expect wat respect she got . 

 Computer Networks- Jerin- Mrs. Perfect. No way we could cheat her, she maintained a perfect register . So i was forced to put an observation for Networks Lab. This was my first and last observation .We once got caught for not even entering the lab even once , not completing the obse and record, while others had nearly completed their records . Well again , Me Harri VB Mani and Akshay got caught for tis sappa reason and she complained it to Princi. We were standing outside her office for the whole day . Then Princi called all our houses and warned  , unfortunately my granny answered the call from princi and my granny called up my mom and my mom being one hyper active woman directly and came to college. I was shocked to see her at college , I asked to leav the college as the matter got solved, but she refused to go as she wanted to know what was the problem. So my mom met the Princi... PERIOD!! 

 Antennas and Wave propagation - Saraswathy- She once told me " Nee un velaiya paaru , naa en velaiya paakarein, but un velaiya konjam silenta pannu " Need more?? 

Jus a week after the symposium stuff , Mid sem was On, Miserable results again, Super sixer! Well, it was a tough job to fill even the main sheet, Don think even after totalling the marks of all the 6 subs , i got 50. But I was not the only one , there were ppl who scored lesser than me :P. 

 Days passed by and on March 10, eve of my b'day that nite i was near doraiswamy subway in a shop faggin. Mani and Harri were there , They were the ones to wish me first . Treats and b'day bums followed. 

  

One fine day , I donno what struck all of us , we decided to go to GRE class, So all 10 of us went n attended the class. After the class , we decided to go to Marina , as its jus few mins from the class, All 10 of us had vehicles. Our class rep, Siva initiated the raced as he raced past us , in order to catch up wit him , all started vrrrrrrrrrroooooooooming @ RK salai, taking cuts and turns, we all stopped at the signal  Mr. Mani who owns an activa was screamin , telling Activa enna speed pathele......... and he took off immediately as the signal turned green and again we sped off and Damm.. Mani suddenly pressed his brakes n turned left towards the bike park, Shankar w/o knowin bout the bike went and hit Mani at full speed and Thud! both of em fell and  It was really a close shave for me , as i was js behind shankar and i just managed to press the brakes on time . It was a pathetic scene . As usual , all the ppl there formed a kootam lookin @ wat was happening . We then took those 2 dogs to a nearby hospital. Shankar escaped wit minor injuries while Mani suffered Multiple Compound fracture . After few days , Revision exams were on , no improvement. Exams started , I did give my best shot cos this was a critical sem, cos placements would start next sem. But i have a shit handwriting . One of my biggest let down in the exams . Results of VI sem to released in the nxt post! 

V sem contd....

As many of us dream of pursuing MS in US, I also did and wanted tis dream to come true. So in , wat we call" aaruva kolaru", me and some of my friends nearly 10 of  them, joined THE LYCEUM, which is supposed to and is the best place for GRE.So we paid the fees and sat in the class, we sat  in the last row, as the class is jam packed during the verbal classes.I still remember , he was doing the Q words. Damn, we couldn understand a bit of wat he was teaching. We were scratching our heads, thinking if its ENGLISH. Finally, the class ended , we lost hopes on GRE. :P. next day was Quants , oly few of my turned up to the quants class.  I was again late to the class and to my surprise , oly 10-12 students had turned up.My maths was getting terrible, i could answer oly 3-4 questions out of 20. Well, nearly a month passed and i found that , i was the oly person from our group attending the classes, but still no improvement in verbal and quants,maybe because i lacked interest, thinking nearly one year was there  before i appeared for the exam. Slowly , I also skipped the classes.But that class was valid for one year, July'06-07, so i thought of going there,some couple of months before taking the exams, thinking that would be enough.One fine day, me,hari,harriharan,vb and akshay went to mocha and  then it all  started. We started visiting this place quite frequently . Then, from no where, a school mate of mine, Tharun contacted me after some 3 years. I met him at amethyst and den we got along well and once i called him to mocha to introduce him to my college friendly, surprisingly , he was harriharan's sklmate too. He was in PSBB before he came Narayana Mission.He was the only person who used to fag & booze at that time. Slowly harri and vb also started fags and also booze. I was  steady till then w/o fags n booze.This sem again, we used to get OD, tis time in the name of GRE, telling, we have tis exam, tat exam, mock exam. Since all my staff were dumbasses , they used to give us permission. Once, there was some India's match was going on and we couldn sit inside the class , we desparetely wanted to watch the match. So, as usual we got OD in the name of GRE and we set off to find a place where they had tv . Mocha doesn't have TV, so that was ruled out. Then, we went and enquired in leather bar @ The Park, no tv again. So, finally we went to Barista and we were watching the match. As usual, Indians screwed it up, we lost interest and went to mocha. Tharun joined us @ Mocha. This time , another classmate of mine, name ashwathaman, came along with us. So again, we all ordered something, and those 3 started fagging and they started forcing me to have it . I said no way, they dint stop either.Then  I told them, If Ashwathaman smokes , I ll also. I told all this , thinking he wont smoke and i could also escape but that jackass lit his cig and started smoking. Damn, I couldnt say  no anymore. Then I took a fag lighted it . By tis time , Harri and VB had become professionals in fagging and they thought me, how to take it in and all those stuff. As my first cig went on , tears were flowing from my eyes, (NO! NO!! I wasnt crying , just that the smoke was going into my eyes) And Yeah, that atmosphere @ mocha was another thing. Everyone were fagging , incl the gals.Well , i cant say, i dint like it , it was good and thats wen it all started. From that day , we became daily customers of mocha.By this time, Mani also joined hands with us,we<> used to get OD, go to mocha, order something, fag and come back. Come what may, we used to go there everyday . At times, more than once.By this time, we started frequenting the pubs too. Star rock is where we went most of the times. I just went there for fun, used to eat the side dishes, drink pepsi and fag.Once those buggers forced me to have a beer,i reluctantly took the glass, i coudn't stand the smell itself and i jus licked it, Yuck~~ i immediately went to the restroom and spat it out . Oly once after so much of forcing , i tried Vodka, 30 ml of vodka and mixed it wit 300 ml of pepsi and I was having it for hours together , before i could finish half , my friends had completed 2 rounds, slowly , i finished half the glass and i asked the bartender to fill up the glass wit pepsi again.(so it accounts to 30ml vodka and nearly 450 ml pepsi)My friends were furious , seeing me do all this crap. And we from star rock, we again went to mocha. Cos my friends believed a cup of coffee can reduce the hangover(experts opinion).Days passed by , and sem was jus a month away, which meant , study hols had started(One of the few good things bout my college, we are given one full month leave before the exams>Holidays dint stop us from going to Mocha :P.There are times, wer we used to order jus one drink, jus for the sake of ordering( I mean, thou we were 4-5 in number , we would just order 1 drink , per group and not per head :P).Sometimes, we used to meet up @ tea shops at nights for fags. Guess, u can make a clear picture of how jobless we were. Yes , we were! :D. From the other experienced faggers in my class, we heard that Ascendas(Tidel Park) is open for all , 24*7. Thats it! That became our hot - spot in the night. After finishing our work @ Mocha in the evening, go home , freshn up , have dinner and leav to ascendas around 11 became a routine, (Not a daily one , but we did go there twice or thrice a week) . Sometimes,my other classmates (deepak, hari etc etc) also used to join us  and we used to stay there till 3-4 in the morning , keep talking bout some shit topic, and no count on the no. of smokes.  The ride from my place to Ascendas was grt, free roads , fast paced songs on my ipod  used to vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooooom. Pleasure ride infact. This routine was on, and guess what exams were just 2 days away , we were given our hall tickets , and no prizes for guessing where we went after getting our hall tickets.Guess wat, we used to sit @ mocha, discuss bout the subject even the day before the exam . Since it being an odd sem, we used to have 3 days in btw some exams , so we used to night out @ Ascendas btw the exams for which we had 3 days leave. Well, I couldnt go to Mocha during some days , as i had exams daily (Arrears + regular), but my friends were going strong. Last exam of the semester was PROFESSIONAL ETHICS and guess where I studied , beleive it or not , @ ASCENDAS, Me Harri and VB and a pack of fags for company, we studied very less , but that was enough to clear the exam. Qwikys was open full night at those times, whether we studied or not , we had some ting from there every hour. Time passed away eating fagging and sighting the chicks, admist all these distractions ,we did manage to study a bit.The thing is Mr.Tharun came i from no where, and once we all got used to booze n fags, that fucker left. No contacts again. I still wonder at time , why did he come , why di he leav etc etc. One thing , before u start smokin, u wont notice how many ppl smoke, but once u start , u ll find so many , like ever 3/5 ppl smoking . This doesn apply for smokin n drinking alone, so many other activities too. During this sem, we discovered so many tea shops :P. These days I can never forget in my life , Damn the fact that i cant get these days back! :( Results of V sem to be released in the  next post

PS-

1) Cigarette smoking is injurious to health :P but who cares! 

2) Fags help in bonding friendship (Universally accepted, personally too)

3) I am not an addict

4) Excuse me , for my crap English!! So many thoughts, coudn't control !! :P

V sem Part -1

Successfully, not in my case though, 2 years , i.e we had crossed half the bridge. So we entered into the third year, I was as usual late to the class<> .Class had started before the came to the class, But then i was used to it now.The subjects and staffs given below

Communication Theory - Mrs. Babyola- She was pregnant at that time , so she finished the full syllabus in 2 weeks and was off on maternity leav, She was teaching at express speed, couldn understand a bit of wat she taught, Well, i wouldn have understood even if she had taught us patiently :P.

Microprocessors - Balasubramanian-Nick'd -Hiode /Balsu-Many say  he taught well, i paid no attention to his classes. He was one real backstabber, Damn!! 

DSP which is also called as Degree Stopping Paper-Shailaja-Well, difficult to explain in words, She was one helluva #####.I dont know how she taught , cos most of the times, me along wit a big gang were always outta the class, She was irritating . Well, even by chance I sat in her class, I used to do some crap or the other so that she notices me and sends me out . I never stood alone , always used to have a big company. As soon as we get sent out , we used to sit on the stairs and start our useless vetti talks. These vetti talks are anyday better than sitting inside those boring shit classes. I did only two things wen i was inside the class, One was to observe everyone's reaction and to give miss calls to those who were listening attentive.:P

Transmission Lines and Waveguides- Sangeetha- Nick'd Gomma- She used to pronounce GAMMA as GOMMA , thus the name. She was one vayilla poochi.She never used to bother wat we were doing and we also dint bother to listen wat she was telling . In between, we had a teacher called Chembian, from IIT . he was there was some 3 weeks . I thought that being from IIT , he would have good knowledge etc etc and taught of listening to his class, but unfortunately his voice was not at all audible, i also tried to listen but in vain :((.

Ethics-Deepa Jose- The same staff who handled LIC for us . Again she was also not a problem . As it was one mokka subject she also never pressurized the students. But I used to wonder, why engineering has crap subjects like this?:P

Control Systems-Senthil <>. Yabbaaaaaaaaaa... he is one real Psycho. Just cant explain him in words. He ll talk to properly , but the very next second used to start shouting. Quite helpful thou, as many students say. I don have any idea bout his helping nature because i never went to him to get any sorta help or someting. It was an interesting subject, but he taught us like an idiot, which no one followed.

Few weeks into the V semester, I bought a new mobile ,MOTO L7. Though cell phones are banned in our college, no one cared bout it..My cell got caught in one of the most unfortunate ways possible. The worst thing is , I wasn't there when the cell phone got caught. So wen  i came to know that my cell got caught, i rushed in to meet the staff. Pleaded like hell, and she said she would return it tomorrow. The next day , wen i went , that ##### had read all the messages in my inbox and outbox.It was on the day wen the phone got caught, my bloody friend , who never sends me any fwds or anything, sent me a coupla A jokes :(. But i dont think she understood the jokes . To add fuel to the fire , I was messagin my cousin few mins before my cell got caught asking him about some hotels in Coimbatore bout its accomodation as we had planned to go to Coimbatore n Ooty for a trip , which is called Industrial Visit in professional terms, 

Well, this conversation was the main 

Cuz- Are you in college?

Me-Yes

Cuz- Free hour or wat ?

Me-Yes

Cuz-Dont tell me you have free hours in engineering, some idiotic professor must be taking class for u

<>

Now, these ppl had read my messages and the staff thought i had sent the message sending the teacher was an IDIOT<>But i should say , I was lucky enuff in this issue atleast , cos on that day, another phone got caught, again from my department, but my junior. Tis was one big matter , It had some filthy messages . Like Panchathantram dialogue, mine was Pedda phone chinna matteru, her's was Chinna phone<> pedda matteru.This case became more strong and my matter got amungified.Well, I did samalichufy in my house by getting an L7 from my friend and i gave him my old 2600 and after few months, my friend ,due to whom my cell got caught, bought me a cell on EMI. In between all these stuff, IV was also scheduled . Frankly sayin , one of the worst and fucked up Itinerary of the trip. Many students boycotted the IV due to the tension created during the previous one . Thou , the itinerary was a bad one ,travelling with friends is always a nice feeling . IV got over successfully without any problem, this is something to be appreciated :P. Soon, after the IV , we had our midsems . I flunked again miserably, scoring a duck again in Microprocessors . I had become bad to worse, i used to fill the main sheet atleast in the prev sem's midems and revisions, but this time , filling up the first page itself became a Himalayan task.This sem we did not have any maths papers too. So it was a super sixer in the midsem.Few days later, DOOMSDAY arrived , the results day, I was on my way back home from SSN's Culturals -INSTINCTS. I was literally shivering with fear, I dint get any calls from my friends, so I was sure that , my results were bad. I came  home n checked  , Biggest shock of my life , I had 8 backlogs. I had cleared oly in Random Process and signals and the 2 practicals . I had 8 F's and 4 P's .4 in the IV sem and the 4 in III sem :((. My heart started pumping for a second , Never ever seen such pathetic results. @ home , i said i had 4 arrears, 4 current ones, cos i dint have the guts to say i had 8 arrears.I was feeling ashamed to go to the class the next day, but then i had to go , no other option. Again, the next day after the results , Gloomy faces and Happy faces. Things had to move on, my sadness is always short-lived. So i never got worried bout those backs after some days. Soon after few days , Revision exams followed, again Super sixers , no ducks tis time :P. AU finally released the Exam time table , I had to write 6 regulars and 8 arrears. Since it was an odd sem, we had 3 days and 2 days study holidays between the exams. But cos of my bloody fucking backs, exams came in between those holidays  too. It really became tough for me. I had exams continuosly  for a week from monday to friday. Oly for 1 or 2 exams , i had leave to prepare. Inspite of all these arrears, i dint change my studying habit. I read oly from 11 to..... till  i finished, around 330-4. This has already become a big post, and I have many more interesting things to tell durin the V sem , like Mocha<>, Ascendas ,Night outs etc etc to be continued in d next post. 

IV sem..

After the III sem ended, we got the so called Vacation for 4-5 days.Those days flew away, time was fully spent for sleepin, eating and going out. Then, College reopened and we were into the second half of the second year.Classes went on, as usual never bothered to listen to any.The subjects were, EC-II,Linear Integrated ckts, Measuremnts and Instrumentation, EMF, Random  Process and Signals and Systems.

EC-II-Malathi- Easy Subject, made it look difficult . She was again one crap staff, adding to the department.

LIC-Deepa Jose- Used to come @ times, more like a guest lecturer, but again no teaching @ all.

Measurements & Instrumentation-Preeja-She was afraid of our class and i need not say more.

EMF-Kalpana- nick'd Crazy frog-Used to keep on shoutin some crap in the class, but who cares! 

Random Process-Chr/Raman sir

Signals and Systems- Again, the same crap , Anuradha, became from bad to worse, i shud say

It was symposium time, every even sem in college is fun cos half , infact more than half of the days is spent on the symposium.Its Fun actually..

So, Our department Symposium was scheduled on some date. The first thing which strikes everyone durin symposium is OD. OD-ON DUTY, which means, you can bunk college, legally.

First and Foremost thing during symposium is to collect the sponsors, This is the best thing in the symposium, actually.You can get permission from the HOD sayin u are going to X ,Y,Z company and can escape from the college, at the end no one bothers to check if we have got them sponsors from those company.I was not a good boy , to sit in the class wen we are given OD's .Since, it was the first sympo for us , most of us worked hard, going to d companies for sponsors, getting Bulb'd most of the time. The daily routine was to come to college by 9, get the OD letter signed and leave, there are days wen we never entered the classroom too.After some days, after getting so many bulbs in the company , we got fed up wit the companies and started going out to movies, malls, some place to kill time or worst come worst , go home n get flat.It was at tis time , after lots of pestering and pleading, nearly an year , i got a bike . Yipeee!Slowly, I started learnin how to drive, and den there was no stopping me. :P. Me n my frnds discovered so many hang outs, so many restos durin the so called sponsorship voyage.But we did some justice to our OD's by fetching some sponsors.We enjoyed each and every moment of the trips. Time passed by , it was ages since we sat in the class. But again , who cares! The preparations of the symposium was going @ full swing.Most of the work was taken care by our seniors, as it was their symposium mainly. Then , after the sponsorship deadlines got over , we had to deliver the symposium poster to the other colleges. Seriously , The poster looked like Crap, with the starting lines, MSEC vazhangum ELECSAwin PRANAV , C'mon man, shudn't it be professional, we aren't makin movies, oly there we have these kinda kinda, XXX vazhangum YYYwin <>.But , seniors had done it, so we cudn say anything. 

Days passed by, it was the eve of our symposium , many of us stayed back after the college hours , helpin in raising the banners , arranging the benches etc etc. In between all these things, we had to choose the events, i mean, u had to choose whichever event u wanted to volunteer. I chose Mock Interview along wit another friend of mine , Mr.Mani. By midnight , most of the work got over and most of us started as we had to come to the college a bit early too. The D-Day had arrived, thou i was happy bout it , i was also upset of the fact tat , OD's myt become difficult, oor sutha mudiyathu :(. All of us had dressed up in formals with a tie , Damn i tell u, tie , full hand shirt etc etc on a hot n sunny day @ chennai can be irritating like hell.But, I had to carry on wit it. Was really feeling sleepy , i dozed off during the Presentation, welcome address etc. and  i woke up suddenly and luckily , the initial mokkai's was about to get over. Then, everyone headed to their own respective committees. Me n my friend walked into the seminar hall, where the first round of mock interview was gonna be conducted. The seniors were there , before us ready with the question papers .To my susprise , oly around 4 ppl turned up at first, Well, frankly it was kinda flop show wit oly 40 odd turnin up for the event. We had to invigilate and see to tat no one copied,<>. Evaluating those papers took hardly 10 mins. and we shortlisted the selected candiadates fr the next round, which was an extempore. Our super seniors were the judge fr tis event. and some 5 students were  shortlisted for the nxt round and finally 3 of them won. Well, Finally Pranav-07 came to a close and it was declared a hit . And from next day , routine college started. Was sitting in the class after ages, so each subject seemed like Greek n Latin to me. Soon after a week, MID SEM was on, as usual , flunked miserably, thou i had the questions the previous night. And soon after ., the III sem results were out , the most shocking day in my life, i had got 4 backs. 4 Fucking arrears , i cdnt beleive my eyes wen  i saw it. I had cleared oly random process and Signals. Had a  nice archanai @ home , i also felt a bit guilty, but i had not written it so badly as the result said. But things had to move on, I applied for reval, but in vain. Well, i never take things seriously, so these 4 backs , dint worry me too much. But it was terrible result , pass % was oly 33%. But things had to move on.  I have to tell you about our lab sessions, It was more or less , 3 free hours, we were divided into groups , each group had 3 members.52,53,54 formed one group, 52=> gymse kumar, 53=>VB 54 => yrs truly. One of the most dedicated , punctual and sincere groups in our batch. The probabilty of all three of us present in the lab session was 0. It was either two of us or one of us or the whole group absent. We hardly did 4-5 expts durin the 4 years.I   never maintained an observation for any of the labs, except for 1 subject in the sixth sem.  I was very lazzy to write obse, and one more thing, oly if we perform the experiment we can take down in the obse. Records, another pain in the !!!. used to get it corrected at the last moment. We had the spiral bound records , all the writing and drawing is done on A4 papers and den its spiral bound. I was poor in drawing, i used to finish the writing part alone. I was good at outsourcing, by the time , i started my record, most of the students in my class would ve got the completed sign . So i used to give them the paper and ask them to draw the diagrams and tabular columns. If there were 10 expts , used to give the papers to 10 vetti dawgs and ask them to help me complete the record. By the time they finished their work, i used to complete the other pendin work . Then i used to collect the papers, and used to arrange it and den get it signed . PHEW! Revision exams came , flunked miserably again in all subjects, except for Random Process. Study holidays started soon after the revision.Apart from the regular 6 papers, i had to write those 4 backs too. Most of my exams were a total fiasco tis time , as i couldnt prepare properly , as the 4 arrears kept haunting my mind. Gave a shit performance . Results of the IV sem to be released soon.. 

II year of engineering.... III sem

Well, i apologise for the crap grammatical errr and screwd up sentence formation in the prev post, quite a few reasons for that , 1) started writing the post around 3 am, 2) Thoughts kept flowing in , cudn't control them and 3) I am still an amateur, hope i don make as many mistakes as in the first post this time, if u find any , Ignore them .

So here i go...

III sem, This is the time when the so called "Engineering" life starts. First day of the III sem, I was as usual late and it took some time for me to search for my class as the classrooms are in the Main block, for the first two semesters, we were made to sit in IIET block for some sentimental reasons , its more like a haunted block, dark staircase, broken door, stinkin toilets and more... Now comin to the Main block, <>At that time i dint have a cell phone  too, so that i could message someone asking wher's the class, so i had to go thru all the classrooms and finally found it.I am neither a first bencher nor a last bencher , am d In-between category.So I went inside and sat some where in the 3rd or 4th bench.The first day however was quite free as no staffs came. The thoughts about E.Mech started haunting me . Our Class teacher came in and put some blade about electronics some crap, well i never had the habit of listening the class unless am interested.She put some mokka and finally told the subjects for the semester and the staff who were gonna handle the subject, The Subjects were Data Structures<>, Electrical Machines<> , and the 3 core papers Electronic Devices and Circuits, Electronics Circuits-I,Digital Electronics and Maths -III. Days passed by, I realized that , My class is divided into 2 , One is the Pazham group and other is the happy go - lucky , Come what may group, and i was neither in both of them,  I was a Total Misfit in the class, neither i could move freely with the pazham group nor i could get along wit the other group. Well, I dint like the class at all and the subjects and the staff added to the agony.

 The Staff names deserves a special mention

Data Structures-Ashok Kumar-Nick'd RAMP WALK ROBOT- was one real psycho,Once he made the whole class to stand out and he walking alone inside the class stroking the benches,and he claimed to have finished the subject in just 2 classes.GOD OLY KNOWS~

 

Electronics Devices and Circuits- Anuradha - She was one annoying lady who was fit to teach primary children, Her dialogues like Ennathu Ma, Ithu Ma , Athu Ma pissed me off totally.

Electronics Circuits-Meenakshi-Nick'd AMMAN-She was suffering from hysteria i guess, She never used to shout lookin at the student's eye, she used to look at the ceiling while shoutim... Most of the time , she was fast asleep either inside the staffroom or lab. 

Digital Electronics-Sivarajan-Nick'd Morris Mano- was a silent person, he also taught us proprly , came to each bench and gave personal attention , this subject was quite interesting and a bit easy too... atleast the first unit, which he handled. As luck would have it , he left the college and we had 'n' no. of staff to complete the subject, this made me lose interest in tis subject too.. :((

Electrical Machines-Rama-Nick'd BONDAmatics-Her FUW<> were basically,generally,actually etc, we rather used to count the no. of these words than concentrating on the subject. 

Maths III- Chr/Raman sir-

Chr again was kinda hysteric, her speed of talkin was equal to the speed of Japanese bullet train.

Raman Sir-The most respected person in our college, was at his usual best. Since i was kinda good in maths, this subject wasn't an area of concern for me.

Now after a few days, we had something called Mid-Term,We never considered it as an exam, we gave a damn to it.This is like one week holiday , where we get to continue our broken sleep. That is what i did, dint study for any of the exams, even thou i knew the question the previous night itself. <>. Laziness got over me , and i dint study and faired badly in mid sem, Except for Maths , i flunked in the others. Special mention to the EC-I paper, in which i scored 0<>. Well actually it became a matter of prestige to pass in the mid sem exams. More the subjects  u fail , more the "GETHU". hehe. Days passed by and IV was planned. After so much of controversies, the date and the companies , everything got finalized.These controversies increased the animosity between the students. I , as always kept mum, as I don prefer getting into a fight unless its inevitable. Well, all set to bangalore , we spent 3 days there. Again , some problems cropped up, as expected, Inter class as well as intra class. Inter class, we had a tiff with EEE students over a company . Intra class, some group of students wanted to complaint about the boys who had boozed the previous night to the Class teacher, really kiddish thought, I believe. Well, problems still persisted in my class , No , Unity at all. Poor me, I wasn't a part of any of the groups, Because I dint like to be a part of one group and create hatred against the other. I was a TOTAL MISFIT again. Days passed, and on one rainy evening , the second semester results were out. It really scared the shit off me... E mech , E Mech was what  running thru my brain at that time.By this time , I had a cell. So while I was on my way home , my friend called me and told that results had come. I asked him not to tell my result , as I would go home n check it , But my over -enthu friend broke it and it turned out as expected.Tears started flowin from my eyes, as it was the first time in my life i had failed in an exam. I dint know how to tell it @ home. So , I thought of telling it a bit later, but my friends started calling me and one friend of mine , called up , I picked up the phone, My mom also picked the phone, and tat ass asked " Machi, Results enna aachu?", thats all! My mom started screamin and came to my room asking if the results were out, I acted as i dint know it and I said, wait let me check,by this time my dad had also come , the university site took its own sweet time to open, as it does always on the day of results, I put my reg.no and there came d marks. An 'F' next to me E. Mech, My parents were shocked, My father started shouting as all fathers do, tellin ippo onnu , adutha sem naalu , athukku adutha sem ettu , and he left for work as it was his night duty , and after that my mom started polambifyin, again like any other mom. Next day , College , i went to the class, few happy faces and  few gloomy faces. I was terribly upset too. I had to move on with it. 

Sem III was about to come to an end. I fucking , dint know anythin about any subject and I again, flunked miserably in the Revision examination. Study holidays started , Tis is like a vacation for us , because , other than this we don get holidays post exam, So tis is the time to enjoy, wasted the whole month royally.Only good thing I did was that I attended Raman Sir's Maths Class. Its more like a one month crash course.Time flew,then, I realized that , the exam was on the next day , so I sat down to study around 11pm the prev night , The exam next day was DS.I burnt the midnight oil, studied upto 3-4 am and went to sleep. Got up around 730 am, revised whatever i studied and i left to coll. This became a routine during exam times.  Well , I felt i had done the exam properly and was kinda satisfied wit my performance. Next exam was E . Machines, again the same routine and i did tis exam a bit ok. Next Exam was EC-I and we had a cupla days and there was heavy rains , poured cats dogs donkeys cows buffaloes and what not , and tis made the University postpone the dates as the rural areas got hit badly by these rains. Since the exams got postponed , the seriousness in me disappeared too... dint even touch the books. The exams again started  . EC-1 , EDC and Maths -III went well, but Digital Electronics was a SHOCKER. Not even a single question was expected, It was one hell of a paper. It was my worst performance ever, worse than E.Mech too. So  I expected one CUP again.... So finally III sem got over... Results of the III sem to be released in the next blog . !! 

Joining MSEC and the First Year

Tis is wat vettiness has done to me ... Has made me write blogs. :((

 

Ok Let me tell you about my eventful 4 years of my so called Engineering Life. Well after scorin a good 92% in my +2 Examinations and havin an avg cut off of 250+ , I joined MEENAKSHI SUNDARARAJAN ENGINEERING COLLEGE.Infact , I really wasn interested in joining the college, mainly because of its name meenakshi sundararajan<>. I did not make it thru the University counselling, I joined tis college thru the backdoor entry, i.e the mgmt quota. Paid a sum of 2 laks :(( and joined the ECE department.The Worst thing bout tis is I had a call from Vellore Institute of Technology for the first phase counselling, wherein I would 've got ECE w/o any capitation, I wanted to go there, fought wit my parents, but my plea fell on deaf ears and i was forced to join MSEC. I liked one thing bout MSEC, it was in the city, infact 5-10 mins frm my home , which meant i cud get up late and get ready to the college unlike the other colleges, whose colleges buses picked their students by 645-715. That is the time wen i am in deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep sleep. Well, anyways, time passed by and the college opened . First day of the first semester, English Sir came to our class, he is one f the senior citizens of my college, 75+ . He put some blade on the first day,then after a few days, they split the sections irrespective of their departments  . Ppl who had a score of 85+ in +2 were in A section 75+ in B section and rest in C section.  I was lucky tat my school friends were wit me in the same section i.e A section.It was fun in our section. Made good friends with my classmates, had nice time. First sem breezed away and i cleared all  my papers wit ease, well who cares bout % in Anna Univ.Since i was fresh from school, my habit of calculatin the % was still there and i got 78% , I was not satisfied as i expectd more. Then I moved into my department , now it was a proper ECE classroom . I was left alone as my friends had moved into the CS and IT department.  To be frank , I really hated the class, I ,infact wanted to change my department. But , I had no other option other than to get going. It was kind of a rough time , missing my old friends , sittin alone. Things moved on, I made friends wit few guys in my department. The thing which i disliked in my class is everyone formed their own groups and they never came out of their groups. Tis really pissed me off. Well to be honest, i had made oly 3 friends in my II sem, it was jus a Hi-Bye relation wit others. Time flew away and it was Exam time , I was really afraid of the subject called Engineering Mechanics, It was handled by one of the worst professors of all times. Well , i was told tat E.mech is a diff subject by many ppl, infact i love problematic subjects, as they are challengin and its also easy to score . But as many ppl said , its diff , it created a psychological block in my mind and i couldn concentrate on the subject. The problem wit me is , irrespective of the difficulty of the subject , i opn book only the nite before d exam. So next day was E.MECH, since i hadn prepared well, the paper appeared to be like a Greek and Latin paper to me. I screwed up the paper, was disgusted wit my own performance. 

So What happend to the results tis time ???? To be continued in the next post...
