yiipppee I am an Engineer....

Whew... finally after toiling, struggling, cramming, for 4*365 days with this university and its wonderful correction, I am an engineer. The feeling is typeless. :)
I was sleeping as usual at 5 p.m ( like a log, not my fault effect of watching matinee show of OSO), got 18 missed calls from friends saying results are out ( was still sleeping) and then ten messages. Finally woke up when mom was like 'Endi sandhya velaila vilakku vekkara nerathula ipdi thoogara. Olunga ezhundiri'. Had to get up else would have to face the consequences of bad dinner :p. Since already said I am in a 'Hi tech' village, could not log on and just was told by friends that I had cleared everything. As any other engineer, I did not bother about percentage.
A few milestones and achievements I would like to share withyou all.

1. I got decent marks in project (190/200) and felt happy about the same since hardwork and sincere effort was rewarded. But many of my friends were not appreciated to that extent. One of my good friends did a real tough hardware project in a month ( after changing their topic in the last minute) and they were not givcn what they deserved. And also many readymade and non deserving batches who took airs a whole semester and just went to the shop and bought projects shelling out a fortune were rewarded. But its ok in the end. My friends really have something big instore for them later on in life :)Kuch khona hai kuch paana hai, jeevan ka khel puraana hai ( I can get philosophical at times :p)

2. My four yrs of Engineering is filled with evergreen memories of four staff of our dept(Ramkumar sir,Ramesh sir,MSK sir and Balaji sir). These are the four pillars of unbelievable support and encouragement who can go to any extent to help you out, no matter even it takes putting them into trouble . Thankyou for leaving your footprints in the sands of my memory . I am ( we all are) ever ever ever grateful and thankful to them.

3. We had a paper in final semester called Neural Networks, handled by one Mr. Anniyan or i like to call him Saitan Ka Bachcha (SKB for short). He has the talent of teaching perfectly from a local author( but claims he has 'referred' and taken notes from all the russian, american, italian, african and what not books) and we can rest assured that what ever crap is taught by him is bakwaas and you can surely get an arrear by following him.You can expect minimum internals of 14/20 from him only if you satisfy any or all of the following:
* listen and take notes like parrots in his class leaving your both halves of bheja to rot.
* run behind him after each class asking him stupid questions and make him realize only he is the creator of the subject and is the only one having flair in it.
*listen to his Anniyan and Mr.Perfect dialogues for 1or 2 or 3 hrs together ( believe me, watchin a Karan Johar movie (inc KANK) is a better option)
* passing all his useless unit tests (attending tests itself is a herculean task)and again ask him doubts in the 'tough question paper'.
* Doing a project under his guidance and only his guidance( i swear you'll never get your degree).

Without any doubt, 98% of our class got below 14 and the headache of getting an ounce more than the magic number 36/80 ( 50/100 is the border) had to be borne by us.Ok, all said and done come on yaar, he is not a great teacher, does not mean you should critisize him this way. Listen to this then:
* Once some guy1 was taking hindi classes for guy2. guy2 wrote on the board:
" Ek Gaon mein ek kissan rehta tha" ( Once there lived a farmer in a village). Guy2 forgot to erase it. Next morning first hour we had SKB's class( obviously I had enough senses to start my day in a better way ). SKB tortured all those innocent souls passing by his room and saying that we had written that on purpose to insult His Highness. He deciphered the simple sentence saying that by Gaon(village) we implied classroom and by Kissan(farmer) we implied him. So the conclusion:
farmer=illeterate && SKB= farmer so, SKB=illeterate
wah kya sochta hai:) and repaired our already punctured images to all other staffs of Dept

If this is heights then listen to this :
Our gang as usual outstanding were discussing birthday plans for our friend. I suggested shirt and some other friend suggested pants:) So we all started laughing and SKB was passing by and said we were laughin and mocking and tittering at His Highness again( we would not dream of doing that lest we should face three hrs of Anniyan dialogues) Since he was again going about puncturing our names, we went to him and made him understand what had actually happened, he nodded his head like a tensionless pendulum and said he is ok now that we had clarified but lo, again carrying tales about our disobediency and all nonsense.
Finally, our results said it all. Not withstanding his menial internals , we all cleared that paper.
So just **** *** SKB:) :)
But he has taught us how ridiculous and bitter people can be to save their skins and we now have the immunity to face any such similar aberrations in this world. Thanks for that SKB!!!
