Wow... feels good to be back here.... writing again.... It's been an year almost since i last came here..... suddenly things seem very different....
An year at NITK is up.... and i can say with utmost certainty that i am none the wiser from my previous post (I am not kidding)....
Anyway, It has been a heeluva ride, this first year at NITK. The people i've met are very interesting and i am getting boring with my bland writing style.... time for some spice....
When we entered as first years engulfed in naiveté , some more than the others, engineering was presented as a herculean task.... a challenge placed before us whose intricacies were unfathomable at the time.....
Engineering, an entity that was built up to be a monster facing whom should have been dreadful..... but surprisingly engineering is the best thing that has happened till date .....
The relief of engineers can be understood from a simple incident..... We, as 12th or 10th graders, wouldn't dream or dare switching on the TV or the computer a week before and during the exams or test..... well guess what..... At NITK, we watched an hour long episode of GOT and two other episodes of Korra the day before the Mech finals... Surprisingly it wasn't nagging at our conscience.....
Secondly, I remember when i was in the 7th grade, whilst competing with one of my best friends, i remember shedding tears for 1 mark..... Each mark lost was painful... VERY PAINFUL.... in stark contrast... at NIT, we never cared for that one mark (except for a few, who just can't be changed), all we cared about was cutoffs. Ah, good times......
There's a lot more to NITK that i haven't yet talked about.... LOT MORE..... but i am immensely tired now and sleep engulfs me..... i must retire for the day..... More to come....
