hi,
i know all u people were waiting with bated breath :)) for this third post of my series. sorry to keep u waiting. but now that i have nothing better to do other than cooking, shopping etc etc i decided to oblige u'll. so here i am with my third post, each dedicated to one year of engineering.
3 rd year began with 5 sem and most students preparing for CAT or GRE. flash cards were the order of the day. this sem we got introduced to robot ( as vishal kharat baptized her) of our comps department... Renu ( i know Aaadi it hurts but..) this mam of our has the voice that can break a glass with her "OK". she was there for CPL. didnt teach n e thing and gave us bad grades and tortured us a lot. also this year i was relived of Vivek Agrawal. he was another pain in the neck ( i know what u dirty minded people expected here) he went to IIT for god only knows what. max of our class had joined Venkatesh for Microprocessors. he was great. his sense of timing was great and thaught very well. u might be thinking he is some stand up comedian. but no he thaught Mup.
personally this sem was bad for me coz my dad suffered from a heart attack. most of the time i was at office or home. didnt attend college much. also the PCT subject in this sem was another classic engineering no-no. we seleceted as our topic "Modern Relationships among the Sexes" and i was to speak on "One Night Stand". gladly all passed off smoothly (shh..)
exams werent great this time around. we were to say alvida to the most scoring subject of Engineering .... Maths... some were sad.... some like me and diploma holders were happy.
we gave our exams and waited for another sem. the sixth sem
Some Late Memories
in the mean time that is in the vacation i joined vidyalankar classes for SP. for the first time in all the sems i started having fun in classes rather than concentrating. our prof pankaj always caught us and pooja was his fav. for no fault of hers she was always caught and fired by him.
also in sem 6 since we had six subjects we were burdened a lot. no one still forgets how OOAD Pracs were done. merely signing attendance sheets and drawing some stupid diagrams once or twice. samw with WT. fooling jaggu was baye haath ka kaam. no pracs were ever done. only thing he cared bout was documentation. "actually font should be 10 , numbering should be proper" etc etc were few of his antics. dont trust me ? ask Rahul Gangan. he will vouch for it.
also one swati kolekar passes such comments that whole college ( or atleast whole comps) took notice of it. one such was to sharad "ur performance this sem is not upto the mark" (dont wonder what it means). next in line was urs truly. when i went to get my journal signed she gave me low grade for no fault of mine. so i casually happen to ask her why she did that . "i dont like ur face" : (( till date i dont ask profs why they gave me such a grade. jo milta hai woh khusi se le lo.
the entire files of SP and OS were prepared by Rahul gangan. the entire class only xeroxed what he did. that speaks lot bout our unity. also fav usernames and passwords were rahul_g, unicode, kiran_k and number23.
the Vivas as usual this time round were exciting and unpredictable to say the least. our OS vivas were taken by jyoti ramteke and some other fool ( i think he was joyti mams bro, both were fools) coz swati mam was on maternity leave. ( just wondering what she meant by "performance" to sharad) also WT and SP vivas went the same way. still remember rahul staying big big things after his viva. itni mehnat and finally dong an MBA (dont justify it to me)
OOAD and CG pracs wre okay. still remember coding those CG programs till 2 at night and getting up at 4 again and just to get DDA line in finals.
after vivas we had if i remember correctly only 14 days for exams. padhayi ki bahut aur exam di acche se. first time after sem 2 i felt my papers were good (someone had messed up in some way like rahuls so called debacle in WT and haris failed attempts at disaster management in SP)
3 rd year gave me very good friends like aditya mishra, amit mehta and one bery bery good nonsense speaking firend called haribal.
this was 3 rd year of engg
TE = tired of engineering.
till then adios
