My friends are never part of this list, because we missed only those things that we have lost and that we once had, They are still with me and shall always be..

Sometimes when we are free, all alone then we got a chance to peep back in our life, to remember our good and bad time. Remembering which a smile arises on our face and when somebody asks Why are you smiling ? what happened ? we end up by saying nothing, but the truth is that, that smile is the most beautiful smile and there truly exists something which gave you that smile. The same nothing, I told to one of my colleague when she asked me what happened , while I was reading a mail. The mail that remind me of one day, perhaps the first day of my so called College Life. I remember when I was in school and once got a chance to visit my Brother’s College, the life their fascinates me and I dreamt that one day I would also study in some college, dreams do come true.

It was the first day of my so called college life, people usually don’t get late on the first day, and I sway I did my best so as not to be an exception but alas I were.! Perhaps, I was the last one to enter the class which comprises of mixed kind of faces who were all strangers to me but who knows that these strangers should transform into perfect friends one day. I sat on the second row, with a tall slim boy who introduced himself as Manoj, that was the first name from CS GCET 2006-2010 that I came to know. Behind me were sitting two more strangers who turned out to be my best pals of all time, One of them was mighty Bansalite, the thing that fascinated me about him was he had done his engineering preparation from the same place, and the second one was a lad from Gorakhpur, about whom I can only say that he was the guy whose last impression was always going to be better than first one. So on the very first day, I got three wonderful friends. Three friends with same white shirt, with third button red, black trouser and those bloody PT shoes.

The real fact that I came to understand only after my four years of engineering is its never your college that makes you an engineer, it’s always your hostel that brings out the engineer in you, luckily we have an awesome hostel who had a warden who existed in hostel permises only when no one needs him. The days were always fine, the real first year stuff we got to know when we returned from our classes and we found that our seniors were desperately waiting for us on the stairs of hostel and then started the distribution of juniors. We had been allotted to different seniors and then started the real awesomely awesome college life. A single 4 seater room 14-15 seniors sitting like kings and 10-12 juniors standing in front of them some were performing skit, some were dancing like shakira, some were behaving like Tarzan, some were selling groundnuts, some were swimming, some were flying Aeroplane and some were trembling. Then started the long lived chanting sessions of our GCET Anthem, the awesome way of Muski Pochna, The amazing way of asking the name of senior and our marvelous ninty. I don’t know what’s there in me for I was the first choice of my seniors. They ragged me like hell and they loved me like their younger brother. They told me that one day in my life I should miss all this, they ragged me at that time and I didn’t liked it but now I remember all this and just want to go back in my life and to live the same life again. The best thing about memories is you don’t know it when you are creating it.

There doesn’t exist a single semester of which I am able to tell all the subjects, but in my mind still alive all the bakar sessions that we had after 2 beer bottles. The best part of my college life is not when I scored good in some subject in some semester or I scored good in some sessional but it was when I got detained 5 times in my four year B.Tech and felt good because we got three extra holidays. I didn’t remember any of my subject in which my preparation were going good but I shall always Computer Organization in which out of three sessional exams I appeared in only one and scored 1.5 out of 30, and that bloody semester in which I scored 30. I never feel regret of anything that today I wish I had not done. I have my friends who studied like if it’s the only thing but later or sooner, we all are at same place. I still remember the words of my RTS teacher who threatened us because we are the worst coder that ever existed on this earth, He told us we could never do coding, I was depressed at that time but today I realized things come with time, Life would give you everything that you need if one day you need to do coding then you will learn it automatically. Its of no use if you learn things under pressure, the best thing in life is learnt by choice. I’m thankful to all those who are essential ingredient of my so called college life recipe for giving me so many memories and thank to god because they are still part of my life. Things and persons come and go but what they leave is memory. Cheers to all such memories.

Yesterday I have been asked by one of my senior that what have I learnt in last 6 months? He said that you are a Btech student and in one of the most dominating branch but that does not simply mean that you know all and a real bond. What’s the thing that makes you superior than most other students of your class.

It was a new question for me and I was not prepared. I have never been asked any such type of question by anybody, at the first instant I was speechless but any how I managed it and gave him the best answer that I could think of, but truly and frankly speaking what I have told him in that atleast two things were really lies and without those two things my answer would not have made much sense. I don’t know why I spoke those two lies perhaps because of the fear of deformation of my image in his eyes or because of any sudden impulse but that does not mean that I do not learn anything but since I have been asked suddenly and never before I analyzed or think about it that’s why I have to give him an artificial answer but it’s after his exit that I thought about the fact what I’m and if I’m a good engineer? Speaking from my point of view I’m not ever totally satisfied by me, whether it’s my class 1st marks(99%)… or my class 10th percentage(90%) or it’s the percent of my Btech first sem(73%) the last one is more depressing and painful, not so bad those who know bout marking scheme ……but the case here is of my alone…

So the question remains, what I have learnt in these last 6 months, and that too without any lie ! The first thing is my love and that is for programming. I love programming and it had always been my dream to be the best programmer. I have a command over C++ and this year I’m in the organizing committee of “coder’s cult” .”the C++ programming contest” this is only thing which sometimes make feel proud and which creates in me a sense of not being a duffer. I can challenge there is no one in the whole first year who can defeat me in C++, there are logics behind it. I ‘m learning languages from class 8th and study core in class 11th and 12th . My CS teacher Mohammad Arsaalan was really a true genius who knew the things well enough, unlike my IT teacher who is one of the most confused souls. Although in it I’m not equally genius in all the topics it’s classes .. structures.. which r my strengths and pointers are a little bit annoying, from the beginning of sem, I am continually studying C++ and devoting a proper time to it because I know this is the only thing which really help me in my future prospective… I want to be the master of it…

Speaking from my heart I really don’t love the subjects of first yr. What is the need of studying Mechanical and Electrical for a computer science student and when I ask this question to higher authorities they simply said “ beta when u go in a company and there might be a possibility of….” What is this yaar… start teaching core subjects from the first year so that when we come after 4 year then we should be the master of at least our field otherwise we would be good for nothing what is this…??? Chal raha hai chalta jayega… okie… I’m not saying all these because my electrical has reduce my marks by 8% in 1st sem but this is the fact… we can not simply divide 24 hrs in such a way that we can study all mechanical, Electrical, HTML or C++ we have to choose what we have to study of course or real extra knowledge..

This time I’m heartedly learning web designing and have got a good command over HTML but not the master of it and lot more there in it which I’ve still to learn and then I’ve to study Java Script and I’ve set a target of next 15 days, these days I have a break and again because of all this schedule, I have decided not to go home and why I am still there when my minors end !

So I have to learn more I know I’m more ambitious than others, so at this moment I realize that I have learnt at-least so much in these last 6 months that nobody can question my learning and overall it’s knowledge that matter at the end. If you have knowledge then you can be distinguished easily from the peers and opportunities will knock at your door.
