A BUMPY RIDE

Lately I have seen quite a few posts by fellow roorkeeites bashing up some or the other course they are pursuing. Well I thought why not do one myself..and here I am!! There are certain courses which make you think 'why in the devil's name did I decide to pursue engineering and bumpy(or manufacturing technology to the fortunate souls who havent been afflicted by the curse) is one of them. It is a course where you are made to work like dogs but there is not the same work appreciation (I mean dogs are called our most loyal friends for the work they put in and what we get are just lousy grades for our dedication..ok i know that isnt the most apt comparison you have heard). The other day The Bulk (who happens to be my co-worker in the workshop) went to sleep while working in the fitting shop( weird i know but The Bulk can go to sleep anywhere anytime)..poor me i had to do the entire filing by maself. There has been a pain in my wrist ever since. With my hand adorned with boils and panting badly i got back to my room...only to remember that i had MD( Machine Drawing) sheets to complete..working on them took me another 4 hours..( yeah yeah laugh if you want but trust me I kick myself everyday for filling mechanical in my branch change form especially as my ex branch mates get more classes cancelled than they attend ). However life isnt all thorny you know..a wise man once said that there is always a silver lining in the darkest clouds and right he was..lately we ( that is me, The Bulk, and Gullu) have got addicted to 'HEROES' . I wonder how these Hollywood guys come up with such brillia-o-nt things when all that our tv industry can churn up are those nauseatic saas-bahu sagas that never end..A brilliant series Heroes is if you wanna take my advice..Oh sorry i gotta end this I just remembered i have to begin work on my new MD sheet..(GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
