When professors at UPES told us on the day of orientation that we are going to have a lot of free time but that will be spent in the library I totally didnt believe that. Even back in BE days teachers said similiar things but it so happened that I didnt know where the library was when I was asked to pick up a No Dues Certificate to get my final sem hall ticket. Now the scenario has changed so drastically that I find myself in the library every single day of the week,reminds me of the daily temple visits when I was a kid.
A class conversation :
Dean: So have you'll done the assignment?!
Class: ( Forced silence... and more silence )
Dean : So I presume that you'll havent done it so instead of taking the assignment once again back home, lets have it done right away. Please right down the MESH equations for Multi Stage Multi Component Distillation.
Class : ( Everyone's holding their pen and then looking to the next fellow sitting beside him for a clue )
I was about to the same and then I notice that Ankur is already looking into my notes expecting me to do some magic. We didnt remember Binary distillation so lets not even talk about something bigger than that.
( After ten minutes )
Dean : So tell me the MESH equations
Class : ( No one is speakin but still pretending to scribble something in their notes )
Dean : (Sigh) Ok so here are the notations for a start, I want you'll to bring the same on Saturday.We'll have class from 2-5. So when can we have the test ?!
Class : Sir, we have tests lined up for the coming week already.
Dean : If you'll are under the assumption that you'll are going to read over night and give the test you'll can forget about clearing the test. So we'll have it on Tuesday then.
Blah!
The whole excitement of new university,new place,hostel,etc has settled down and the crux of the whole scenario is finally here. Course is getting tougher by the day and can actually feel the tension building. Now I know for sure that it will be a rollercoaster ride ahead.
Mid sem exams coming up in October second week, all the more worry.
Sayonara! Next post after a while.
