Engineering?? Not really.. Really..

It was right from the time i knew that i was into NIT Trichy that I started fantasizing about the different non-existent 'research avenues' that would be open to me.. ok.. i'm not saying that i would've created a hydrogen fuelled car.. given the resources or something.. I'm just complaining that i wasn't even allowed to think freely in my one years' stay there..

It started off with CEESAT.. a subject that got my immediate attention when i first saw the course module and what we'd be doing.. well.. what can i say.. it was only sometime before i was harshly disillusioned to the fact that there were a standard set of experinments.. and a standard set of results that were made to look like you could come to your own independant conclusion based on the experiment you did.... Bah.. I can still remember that teacher with the lisp.. Aaargh..


Anyway.. back to square one.. <<>>...


So as i was saying.. what we call engineering.. in one of the premier institutes of the country turn out to be nothing but the same old bull$#it that we had in school.. only at a more sophisticated level.. I'm not trying to dishearten all of you who are reading this by saying that you can never learn anything in an engineering institute.. As the saying goes.."Nessecity is the mother of invention".. and the human brain, as far as i have learnt is so brilliant.. that because of this lack.. or rather this nessecity.. of a mental challenge has propelled most of our brains into more creative avenues.. like..



Counterstriking...

Yes.. this is what we use our multi-crore, state-of-the-art, computer centre for.. It's called the OCTAGON(by God knows who..).. We call it the OCTA.. It is the heart and soul of enginnering.. oops i'm sorry.. did i say engineering.. I meant.. Uh.. College life.. (pretty much the same..).. So off we are at NIT trichy.. doing headshots.. er.. uhm.. engineering..
