A Semester In IISC (1)

I landed in IISc on July 25th..  Got a room in the oldest hostel block in IISc (though amby and anzal would beg to differ). room was pleasant but quite old.. Dint have many mishaps with room.. (like anzal, on whose head the plaster on the roof fell , at night on a rainy day..) Room mate was one Himachal guy, Satendra Kumar (I would get to know him better as the semester goes on)..  Registration process was the first mishap.. I forgot to take my relieving letter from Onmobile , to college.. and now they wanted it.. so got provisionally admitted.. Also tried to beat the system by turning up at 7 for 9'o'clock start.. and realised i am indeed in a place of geeks.. i was the 38th in queue... anyways 38 is way better than 138 or 238, ryt? yeah , well, i thought so too.. but after one malfunctioning printer and one incompetent organizer later, i got served as the 125th guy, i suppose.. still better than 225..

Classes started on the second week.. I took 5 courses.. infact we malayaalees  all took the same5 courses.. each were taught by a variety of professors.. different teaching styles.. some shout, some never raise their voice, some creates symphonies.. and make us go to sleep.. some were like the express trains that forgot that they occassionally had to stop..

Before coming to college i always used to fear quizzes and discussion sessions.. But they turned out to be fine.. Quiz was after all, just like out class test of school times..Discussion sessions were just we people talking with eachother and finding answers..

So all in all IISc was no something i should fear.. or atleast yet...
