Profs. and ME.
Johnny | 16 July 2004, 8:13amProfs. The epitome of an obligated pain one undergoes in any institute. Professor, he is the king damn it..., in my college. He commands rather demands respect for the sole purpose of not screwing up ones career. Well, there are exceptions but most of them are of the derogatary kind.
Man i have had many interesting/embarrassing experieces with them. There is something between me and my profs., which always follows murphy's law without an exception.
The last 3 months have been too hectic for me. I must have done more work in the last 3 months than what i have done in the last 4 years since i joined engineering. All this for what? For the stupid mistakes i have done cuz of the lethargic numbness in me or the ego clashes between me and my profs. Almost all the profs now know me cuz of the herculean task i am doing these days. I actually am passing out within the stipulated time now. :)
Coming to the experiences with the super heros(read profs.), the first and foremost experience i can recollect wud be the one with a particular being called ZOOM. Somehow i never cleared the courses he took for our batch, till recently when i cleared one of the 2 courses he had taken in my second attempt :D He is personification of pain. I hate him. I actually told him on the face dat, i dont wanna learn structures. I am not interested in knowing the damn bending moment calculations/torque etc.. I just wanna clear the course. He doesnt realise that i wudnt be a better person in anyway even if i clear that course. Recently i was supposed to submit an assignment to him. As usual Late latif i was procrastinating it till further alert. I see him in the department, when i go there for my personal work,so i obviously was ignoring him and went inside a room away form his sight. I was so happy and proud dat i cud avoid him, but i suddenly hear a voice form behind, "Oyeee oyee oyeee kya hua? assignment abhi tak submit kyon nahin kiya?" (i was like thinkin teri tho... prof. hai bhai tu kuch tho sharam kar...) Damn that guy hates me so much. I never used to attend his lectures or do any of his assigments. anyways, i somehow managed to wind up that stupid course on structures.
Now comes the prof, whom i admire the most. Prof bhat. Man he is some teacher. No one in my college has been able to generate some enthu in me apart from this guy. He is the prof. i like the most, but still i have had some nice experiences with this guy. He is SARCASM personified. Anything, that has not been done right shall definitely face his unchallengeable sarcasm. Here is an excerpt of our conservation daily. (I almost face a similar situation daily)
I have to meet him at 11 am and i go running into his cabin at 11:20. the conversation is as follows:
PROF: So, you are late as usual.
ME: Errr. Sir my bike gave me trouble...(or someother damn excuse i can think of then and there.. actually i dont wake up by then )
PROF: hmmm (a long cute smile to make realise how poor i am at lying to him.) So, Could you get a chance to attempt the tutorial problems?
ME: Yes sir, i couldnt do the last 2 though.
PROF: You couldnt do as in, u didnt get it? or u didnt attempt it?
ME: I didnt attempt it.
PROF: Could i know the reason? Were u really busy? Did u haev some appointment somehwere?
ME: Puzzled.. Errr.. *Ahem*
PROF: Anyways, lets start with our class for today. (He goes on explaining passionately about some wierd stuff) In the middle of explaining something, i prompt something which was very obvious even for the 12th standard people.
PROF: Oh.. my god how cud u tell that? How were u able to figure it out? and gives me a long cold smile.
Me: Err...Sir, i thot.. Hmmm... (I smile too)
PROF: This is serious ( But he still keeps smiling)
Damn i felt like a piece of shit then.
PROF: Meet me tom. And Kindly could u be on time? I keep waiting for u. Johnny will come Johnny will come and ic an teach. But u make me wait for 20 min everyday.
ME: Damn... all embarrassed.. :D]
Guess this has become a pretty long post now. Well before i sign off, there is this another prof of mine Prof Joshi. I went late to his class once.
PROF: Why ru late?
Me: I was sleeping sir.
PROF: why did u get up then? Whats the use of coming late to the class? You wont understand anyting anyways.
ME: Sir, what about the attendance?
PROF: So, do u come here for the subject or attendance?
ME: Sir, attendance (spontaneaously) The whole class burst out into laughter embarrassin the prof. Since then whenever he sees me, he gives me long cold expressionless look, which can be inferred as the worst possible abuses he wants to give me.
Chalo guys, i have to sign off now. Have bhat sir's exam tom :D (Look at me sittin in front of my comp writing a blog.)
