Mock+Interview tragedy

April 2, 2010 / / 3 Comments

After a long break,I am back…

A lot has happened over the past week.The mock interview organised for our juniors,a dual company tragedy and some usual stuff.

Not to say, the mock interview went on well.I was particularly impressed by a guy’s performance,which was too good(Also,maybe because other candidates were kinda shy) On the other side,I enjoyed well with friends.

Then,a dual company visited our campus. I purposely did not do the written test well,but you know,things happen when you least expect them and I was short-listed. So,I decided to make the interviwers turn me down.The problem was that I actually did not know how to under-perform(Given the fact that, I had never had a chance of performing in interviews,except one which led to my placement). So, I was so scared that I might perform well(What an Irony 😉 ) because the interviewers were not going to go deep into tech-stuff. Finally I managed to say “I don’t know,sir” for everything they asked including a question on Ohm’s law :(. So I was saved from doing a mistake. However till now I cannot get over the feeling of saying “I don’t know,sir” when my interviewer asked this question-“What is the current drawn by a load having 5 ohms resistance and 10 volts of power supply across it?” 🙁

I have nothing interesting at hand for blogging at the moment. Will be back once I am ready with some stuff.

Until later 🙂

At the end of 4 years!

March 24, 2010 / / 7 Comments

Hi people,

The inspiration for this post lies in the e-mail that I received from a friend. The mail was actually authored by an alumnus of MIT who had listed 50 cool facts,addressing freshers who enter college with great hopes. The mail was too good,covering all the stuff that students tend to miss out,considering them to be insignificant. So, here are some of the things that I like to share at the end of these precious 4 years….

1. Having friends is great,but never get over-indulged. This is because when they change,you will be struck by an over-powering helplessness and loneliness. If your friends change, let them and if you want to change for the better,feel free to do so.

2.Enjoy the subtle happenings in college,because one day,those trivia might look so precious,but long gone.

3.Do not worry too much about being sincere. Enjoy small mischievous moments with your friends. Take things sportively-I mean moments like being scolded for late submission of assignments or an incomplete record or a difficult experiment for your lab test 😉

4.Do not strive too much for marks. It is better to strive for knowlegde. Marks and knowledge are totally unrelated.

5.Record your precious moments in the form of videos,photographs etc. because some day,they will give you reasons to smile with tears in your eyes. 🙂

6. Preserve favourite songs of your college life as they might turn out to your ever-green songs reminding the shared moments of happiness.

7.Let go of certain things if needed,though you may think that they are the essence of your life. It’s time to learn to move on.

8.Learn to accept things as they come since nothing is  gonna get better by worrying.

9.Try some risks in life just for the fun of it,but don’t get caught 😉 (I think I have tried quite a few to have a good laugh,anytime I re-live them).

10.Never try too much to please someone. It results in more hurt than it is worth for. 🙂

There are lots more,but these are the top priorities. All of us might have experienced the truth of such ideas at some point of our college life(If not till now,we will certainly do so in this final phase of 1 month). So share these lovely moments with your friends and enjoy these once-in-a-lifetime experiences before it is too late. 🙂

Until later. 🙂

"Life @ hostel"-"Work"

March 17, 2010 / / 0 Comments

Now that I am done with my so-called project except for the final comparing and documenting part of it, I am enjoying the luxuries of life at hostel without any work. The added advantage is that, having vacated the hostel for internship purposes,the rule of “5 hours outing” and other stuff does not apply to me and hence  I am a free bird. 🙂 Also,I am happy that I can get the opportunities of helping my friends with their works in a small way, like helping with their project presentation, the functions they organise being in the final year and stuff. Yesterday was an excellent one- My friends forced me to accompany me to “Vinnai thaandi varuvaaya” for the 2nd time(I already watched it with my uncle and aunt). As I needed them to accompany me for my shopping spree, I had no other go to watch that movie for the 2nd time 🙁 Otherwise, the shopping -Ice-cream @ one of my friend’s brother’s office-Perfect lunch @ Aaryas,Gandhipuram-Running back to hostel for the sake of my friends’ dead line at 7 p.m was a perfect day in my life. All of these for just one more month and then to part our own ways. I am set to enjoy it to the fullest. 🙂

Until later.

Import tragedy+2nd review

March 15, 2010 / / 0 Comments

Hi people,

Sorry if you had subscribed to my blog and received some posts which seemed out of order, via e-mail. I tried to import something from a previous blog of mine which I shared with a friend. It ended up as a tragedy.

With regards to the second review,it went on well without much difficulties for me. Luckily, I was the first person to present and there was no place for relative comparison. My guide did not ask much questions and the programme co-ordinator was silent all the time. So with only the tutor asking a few general questions, it was a cake-walk.Being back at hostel,I am enjoying the luxury of being idle and sleeping all the time.However at the same time,missing my all-time internet addiction 😉 Anyway,being back with friends is too good to spoil my mood for any reason 🙂

Until later.

Women from home to house????

March 10, 2010 / / 2 Comments
With all the due hype, women’s bill has been passed in the Rajya sabha! Having to be born in the female part of the society, my say on this is “This is yet another bullshit from the politicians to gather up some attention and the impression that they have done something for the women”.What I feel is, it is appropriate for the politicians to leave all these faking and do something really beneficiary for the country.My reason for this stand is the fact that if the society fully accepts that women are as much as capable as men without any sort of restraints, then it is equal to 50% reservation in any field.

The other face of the argument is as some claim “Have all women achievers so far,come up using such reservations?”, I accept that the answer is “No”.However, it cannot be denied that the number is comparatively less than the other half. The reason for this largely lies in the restrictions on women by the society (or the abuse and mockery that women have to face),even in this modern era.

So,what I say is “Leave the women be themselves. There is no need for any special reservation as if they are weaklings needing extra care and also there is no need for the abuse and mockery, when they try to come up, as if they know nothing”. Men and Women have been created as the two halves of mankind with all correct reasons and as the logic goes(I mean action-reaction, good-bad and all that stuff..). So treat others as you would want to be treated and that will be the day when something meaningful has been inculcated into us.
