I Got 9, He Got 8 and Who Got 'A'.

              On a random day, If you ask me about the speciality of that day we all went to college for some reason. After spending few Impatient hours in boring classes we came out for lunch, We went to canteen I mean boys canteen than realized we are not so hungry as we ran out of money already, came to our favourite spot spent some time and headed to lab. On our way to our tedious lab, We found few over excited sharp students coming out from staff room with happy faces, We thought they are carrying a good news. When we asked them they said "Some Madam revealed their rank of intelligent through a term called internal marks". Which we never care about, But just to stay out of lab or do something crazy thing. We went to ask about our marks. So we three went into the staff room
Me: Madam My number is 62.
Madam: 9 marks
Me:

Raghav: My Number 92.
Madam: 8 marks
Raghav:

Nikhil: Madam 88.
Madam: Scrolling through the List twice finally found the number. You got "A".
Nikhil: acting as confused.

Madam: That means you didn't write exam.
Nikhil:

We:

This is a sweet memory, You can't Imagine how awesome that situation was. When she said you are absent for that exam. I could Imagine what is going on in his mind. He must be thinking, why the hell god created this planet, why the hell he created a creature called Human, Why the hell he gave an organ called brain, Why the hell he born as human, why the hell we came to college today, why the hell we stayed in college even after lunch, why the hell he acted as if he was very eager to know the marks for an exam which he didn't write. I have pictures of each and every emotion in my brain.

I Found My Role Model

    We came back from college, It may sounded funny that we went to college but that was our first year. At that time none of us had laptops, I asked my friend (actually that asshole is my enemy) "shall we go out bayya I'm fucking bored".
Shyam:  Where do you want to go re I'm not interested.
Me:       (in my mind - Lazy Asshole).
    He was relaxing on bed leaning back-word resting his arms on bed when I left. I went out alone roamed on the streets cursing this lazy fucker. I came back after around 40 minutes. Surprisingly he was in same position as he was when I left, Some where I read Cheetah can stay at the same position for 8 hours. Provided some cooperation that day my friend would have broken that record, but I disturbed, and I'm still regretting about that.
  Here is the fun part.In our floor some seniors used to stay, One innocent senior as part of ragging gave him the Intermediate records (must be his girl friend records) and asked him to finish that in 3 days.
after two days,
Innocent Senior: What re have you completed records?
Shyam: Still writing. (how the fuck are you expecting, that I will write you dumbfuck)
after two day.
Innocent Senior: What re How much is left?
Shyam: (you can expect the answer)
  After two days that innocent senior came to our room,
IS: Where are the records?
Shyam: One sec. ( He was glancing every where in the room, but he couldn't find)
IS: What happened ra?
Shyam: (No replay, Still searching)
IS: what re you said "you are writing"?
Shyam: finally he found it under the bed. ( I couldn't find any emotions in his face, not scared, not happy, not proud, not sarcastic, a face with out any expression only he can make)
IS: He took the records scrolled through the pages to find, How much he completed?
Beyond his exceptions (and as we expected) my friend didn't open those records. Our innocent senior was completely helpless he doesn't have any clue how to react, but he was thankful that he got those records back. But before leaving he said "If you are not writing you could have told me na re?" (with an emotions which you express when some body break your trust, I felt pity on him for choosing a wrong target.)

    Then on one fine day, Soumya madam (C language) came to class and asked every body to submit their lab records by evening or tomorrow.
Soumya : Ganesh, Have you completed your record? (I wondered why she was asking only me, I went into an illusion that, she might some how found that I'm very intelligent, and taking special care,. Suddenly I turned into a determined student )
Me:  I have completed madam, I will bring that tomorrow. (That moment I committed to complete that record by tomorrow no matter what it takes)
Soumya: Do you know where you kept your record?
Me: (Ooo! seriously I didn't see that for quit a long time) In my Hostel madam.
Soumya: Oh! But three week back your records went out for a walk reached my cabin, It was taking rest in staff room.
Me: smiley Poker face.
Soumya: I saw only two programs in that records and you are saying you have completed.
Me: Madam. Today I will complete madam.
Soumya: Still you are thinking I'm a fool?
Ganesh: Looking Down (FML).

After couple of months.
     Time for first year Lab exams, In my memory I still have some snapshots of everybody's emotions. Few people were confident, few people were proud about the amount of knowledge they gained, few were tensed, few were confused, few were confusing others(Karthik that was you), few were normal, But there was guy without any emotions and that was Shyam.
    So all the people with emotions completed their Lab records and got them signed before going to exam, Mine was first batch I have completed my exam, Came out of lab. Second batch people were waiting out side the lab for exam, Our dear friend Shyam was in third batch, I was very curious to find him preparing for exam. I was searching for him in the canteen, I found him writing something seriously. For a moment I thought he was recollecting what he read, but my intelligent part of brain told me that I was wrong. So I went to see what he was doing. Oh My God this fucker has just started writing his record, two hours before the exam, I have no clue when he is going to get that signed, I have started feeling tensed but he was normal. He wrote as much as he can, went for the exam.
  When he was in lab I was thinking, How the fuck this fucker is being chilled all the time, When everybody else were worried about something or the other, I never found him worried about anything, still after completing four year, I never came across a situation where I could see him tensed except once ( that will be a different post ).

It is time for final exams.
     I used to stay in different place during that time for some unfortunate reasons, But as you know I'm very curious to see my friend struggling(studying), So I used to go to his place for night outs,
 But can you imagine how he made studying also interesting?. I don't think anybody on this universe has that vast amount Imagination power.
     By that time  most of us bought laptops, and in his room we used to get free WI-FI with very slow speed, So before starting a chapter he used to keep one video for buffering which will be more than 1 hour duration and I think I don't need to tell you what kind of videos is that. By the time that video completed buffering, He used to complete a chapter and watch some interesting parts of that video then move on to another video and another chapter. Did you see how my friend strategically planned his exams preparation and Don't you think he deserved to be my(our) Role Model.
   From next day onwards all of us adopted that strategy and got more than 70% in first year.

Jahapana thossi great ho..... :P

They Were in GRE waiting list, And I was in RAC.

              That was early morning 10 O'clock, My phone was ringing, I became little concious but some where in my sub-concious I had a feeling like "who the fuck is going to call me", No way,That is not my mobile but after couple of rings I woke up. That was Karthik- calling me.

Karthik: Bayya!, Where are you?.
Me: I'm still sleeping bey.
Karthink: WTF!, That means you are not coming for exam? (little surprised)
Me: I'l come re, Exams starts at 11 O'clock na.
Karthink: You Naughty Boy, it has already started your number was over  =D. (I know this fucker is expecting some kind of regret from me for not being informed)
Me: Oh! Its OK I will write tomorrow anyway I'm sleepy now.
Karthik: Yeah, Lab In-charge is your MAMA he will let you write tomorrow.
Me: Fuck him.
Karthink: Your die you die. (disconnected the call )
Me: Fell asleep. ( As I know that they are not going fail anybody in 4-1 labs).

    In my dreams "I was thinking why this fucker cares a lot about us all the time. We are very thankful to have this Asshole as our friend". (  I didn't feel it on the same day, but one day I felt it)

  So In my class we were around 60 members, They used to divide us into 3 batches,  20 in each during lab exam. I happened to be part of first batch, because of unfair sorting order of English alphabets. So my exam was on first day, And I bunked it.

    You can imagine what was going in my mind. I need company and I know who are going to be my companions. I came up with secrete plan. Thanks to Kevin Mitnick and his book The Art Of Deception which has taught me how to convince tough people.

   My friends had exam next day, Started preparing for exam which was dramatically ended in less than 15 minutes for obvious reasons. I don't exactly remember what we did that night but we slept late as we do daily.

  Next day Raghava Bayya woke up first

Raghav: Abbey Gani wake up..
Me: Chal bey I'm not coming to exam today ,I will prepare today and go for exam tomorrow.( Plan execution started)
Raghav: Abbey Nikhil wake up.
Me: (I Was expecting those three golden words)
Nikhil: Em Pootham bey. ( Gotcha, I know he just need small motivation to postpone the things)

So we bunked the exam on 2'nd day and I had worthy companions.

   Next day there we are in college all set to write prestigious exam which I was bunking from past two days. Everybody is waiting for their number to be called and I know nobody is going to call our number as they called already 48 hours back and 24 hours back.

   I became little proactive and stepped in side the lab.

Madam: What is your number?
Me: (With an innocent face which doesn't suit me) 62 madam.
Madam: Yours was on first day na
Me: Madaam I was not well,  so I didn't come for exam last today's > ( acting Coughing and Sneezing)
Madam: Get Out of this fucking lab.
Me: Poker face.

   While coming out of the lab in my mind I got a feeling of missing my companions. So I came out told them she is calling them also. They went inside got the same treatment but it was shared between two of them so intensity was little less. ( So you came to a point where you can imagine how big Asshole I'm)

 They started exam by keeping three brilliant engineers standing out side the lab as victims. But we are not guilty.

 After they distributed question papers to all the well qualified students, we went inside.
We: Sir, Sorry sir.
Sir: You guys crossed your limits, I can't cross my limits, leave the lab now and come next year. ( with a kind of expression, let me explain that expression, Imagine a cute Rat trying to make and angry face, we were in fact laughing over his warning).
We: Three fake Poker Faces.
Sir:  Don't disturbed the lab. please come next year.
We: ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING US.(Inside our mind).

   We went to canteen to check out some chicks and again some energy to harass him again. We took a well deserved break of 50 minutes. But best thing is none of us blaming ourselves about this fiasco. ( I know that next three days ECE-A section people will have exam, and we are going to write with them).

  So there we are started bugging him again.
Sir: Why didn't you come to exam?
Me: Sir, I was suffering from fever sir.
Sir: Your not looking like that.
Me: Poker face.
Sir: What about you?
Nikhil: We both had a GRE exam sir.
Sir: That guy has fever, he may not be able to inform, what happen with you?
Raghav: (With out giving a second thought) Our GRE slot was on waiting list it got confirmed yesterday only . (Mother of god we are screwed. I bet you, You will not find a stupid excuse them this. I was observing Nikihil bayya face I saw all possible emotion in his face for a fraction of second)
Sir: Em waiting list oo emo. (Ohh he don't know about GRE)
We: Praise the lord.(speaking inside)
Sir: Go and take permission from Uma madam.

     We went inside.

Uma Madam: (No dialogue, Only expression) One Big Question mark in her face flavoured by sarcasm.
We: Madam Our Exam.
Madam: Take permission from HOD.
Me: I was excited as I'm going to speak to our beloved HOD for the first time. But he can't speak telugu, So we have to get over this. at that time thankfully HOD was not there. we went out side, while he was coming inside.

    We were sitting on a small wall in front of canteen from where we can see all hot chicks going to canteen but today is little different we are not looking for chicks but HOD. Mean while '
Nikhil bayya started expressing his emotions which will last in less than 1 minute and he regret about that for more than an hour.
Nikhil: You fucker!  you screwed us. that fucker will tell this fucker that our GRE slot was on that fucking waiting list. HOD is not that foolish fucker to believe your fucking bullshit.
Raghava: One Helpless Expression (I think in his opinion that expression means "I don't give FUCK").

   So finally HOD's metabolic organs helped us, He was coming to canteen. We went inside lab.
We: Madam HOD is not there.
Madam: I know Buddy, you came here when he went for lunch ( Bitch Please expression)
We: Weird smile. ( That smile you give when you left with no choice).
Madam: Meet me after 4 PM.
We: Flying with colours.

At 4 PM we were very punctual.
We: Madam Our exam.
Madam: Come tomorrow with out fail.
We: We know madam If we fail to come tomorrow, We will fail.

  We completed that Lab with out failing.











 

Project Viva - Crazy Experience For Every Engineer.

So here I am after long time carrying lots of memories to share, this one is my favourite. Check out and have fun.

               That was our final project viva, Just like everybody's project viva ours is also very funny and memorable experience. But I can say it is very special for me as it was the last good college memory I had with my buddies. It went like this.

              Fortunately we all know the name of our project, Our professors must be proud of us :). We asked to prepare a presentation about our project so we can explain to external viva guy, while presenting he will ask questions, But the constrain is it should not have more than 15 slides. Thankfully there is no lower limit. So we spent days and nights and ended up preparing a PPT (How we prepared PPT would be a different blog post). So we all set to the battle.

             Considering the alphabetical order of names I had to explain the first few slides of PPT. Before going to viva we struggled a lot to distribute the available knowledge among us  and came up with a plan regarding who should explain which piece. So my piece is to give the overview of project. I started the presentation gave the overview it ended in less than 20 seconds, when looked at viva madam I realized that she was expecting something more, So I left with no chance than grabbing my dear friend's piece and presented that also, I'm still feeling guilty about that. Mine ended with out any questions.

             Next my dear friend started his presentation. It went like this.

Nikhy: So we developed a mobile application using JAVA, With this we can send signal to some AC which will take care of switching on/off  the home appliances.

Viva: (With a kind of astonishment she asked ) You guys developed a JAVA application, (That was the most sarcastic expression I have ever seen.)

Nikhy: Yes madam.

Viva: Great, Let me ask you a question, some Java based question.

Nikhy: Poker Face!!    ( I can read his mind he must be thinking, Oh god why me!)

Viva: Know tell me who developed this JAVA application.

Nikhy: We only developed but we took help from Radhanand Sir (who was sitting there in viva along with external).

Viva: OK then tell me the answer for this question. By observing her body language we realized that was less tougher question then previous one.

Nikhy: Madam actually Sir did that application and gave us. (he lost his patience, and gave up)

Viva: I appreciate your honesty. She gave some free advise which we didn't care.

         It is time for Bobby, He started his presentation which involves some intelligent stuff about which he doesn't have any clue.

Bobby: blah, blah TTL Level, blah blah blah Micro Controller, blah blah Linear Circuit.  blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Viva: What is the difference between Micro controller  and Micro Processor?

Bobby: blah blah blah.( Wow I got a question which I can answer).

Viva: do you know what  TTL Level for blah?

Bobby: yes madam, TTL Levels are transistor blah  .. => started acting like answer just slipped out of his mind.

Viva: You don't even know TTL Levels?

Bobby: Poker Face !!!. (I observed an exchange of glance between my prof and external, She was like evdra villaku chaduvu cheppinodu, He was like Nene aa daridrunni).

           Next comes Raghav.

Raghav:   blah, blah ( Left nothing to present, started bluffing same old shit we already shared.) but on the projector he has a block diagram of some micro controller.

Viva: How many ports does that micro controller have?

Raghav: With more than required confidence, he said  three B, C, D. ( I think my smart friend read it somewhere that is why he was confident).

Viva: With another sarcastic expression she asked, where did port A go?

Raghav: Started bluffing like this.

 Yes madam this micro controller do have port A, But will not be visible physically, blah blah. (But actually it will have only 3 ports)

Viva:  None of the micro controllers has three ports expect this one.. (Trolled).

Raghav: One more poker face.

And we finished our engineering.
