315 to 216

Only an engineer can understand the happiness of completing the B.Tech. project peacefully. I did mine too, that too without any issues. The panel seemed reasonably satisfied and my mentor was considerate enough and hence I got an A. But trust me I had never done such sloppy work ever before in my life. The reason was that I knew that at the end of it all, it all depended on how I would present my work(no-work in my case). So all I did was prepare well for the presentation and crap so much in the presentation to the panel that they would be compelled to believe that I did a lot of work.
In retrospect, when I think of all this, I cannot help but smile and feel that strong nostalgic feeling that I guess all the students have towards their Alma-mater. It was this feeling that propelled me to continue my education in the hope of reliving some of those days again. So now I am in XLRI pursuing a diploma in business management. What I did not know when I joined this place is that the things that I did in my BTP presentation would become my core work(that includes crapping a lot too)! The importance of presentations is of utmost importance in a B-School(ya, we do have a prof. that insists on wearing suit, yes a complete suit with tie, to all his classes. How much I hated wearing formals :( and how much they have become part of my life). These are still the initial days in this new life and am enjoying some parts of it and missing a lot of DA-IICT, especially that totally unpretentious life that one could live there. And of course that room, C-315 where I probably spent the most time per unit area ever in my life. For the next two years, room 216 of The Father Enright Men's Residence is my abode. Let's see where this journey of mine from 315 to 216 takes me.
