When I tried to track my application on the website for PAN card tracking, it said that my application has not yet reached them. So I went to the India Post site to track my speed post only to find that there was no information about delivery. It did show a detailed movement from the IIT Madras Post Office to the Pune Post office, but there it ended. So, I got worried and immediately mailed the Speed Post In-charge at Pune regarding the same. The mail was sent at 7:17 pm so I expected to get some reply tomorrow and they if they dont reply by the evening, I decided to make a telephone call. But amazingly, at 7:45pm I got a reply confirming the delivery of my post! I was amazed at the quickness!!! They actually checked the mail, looked at the records and got back to me with the confirmation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We always end up cribbing about the slowness or the insensitivity of Government offices.

Most of the references ask you to download the colorscheme and put it in your ~/.vim/colors.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yeah... its simple :) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But er... wait a second. I do not have a .vim floder. So what do I do ? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Create one! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ok... I create .vim/colors and put the colorscheme there. But alas! the new colorscheme is still not listed. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then it flashed that I cannot just create a .vim/colors folder and put my favourite colorscheme in it and expect vim to understand. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;By default vim colorschemes are in &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;br /&gt; /usr/share/vim/vimcurrent/colors. So, just move the downloaded colorscheme to this folder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;br /&gt;$sudo mv &lt;color_scheme&gt;.vim /usr/share/vim/vimcurrent/colors&lt;/color_scheme&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And your favourite colorscheme is installed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;To have the colorschemes in your .vim/colors just create symbolic link.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;code&gt;$sudo ln -s /home/ramya/.vim/colors/ /usr/share/vim/vimcurrent/colors/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;:-) Its simple!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My favourite colorscheme is &lt;a href="http://blog.infinitered.com/entries/show/8"&gt;ir_black&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For more on symbolic links :&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/understanding-unixlinux-symbolic-soft-and-hard-links.html"&gt;http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/understanding-unixlinux-symbolic-soft-and-hard-links.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-5535145991302359040?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/5535145991302359040/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=5535145991302359040' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5535145991302359040'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5535145991302359040'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2010/05/installing-vim-colorscheme.html' title='Installing vim colorscheme'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-2628530902118518987</id><published>2010-01-09T22:35:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-11T08:11:17.743-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life in iiT'/><title type='text'>An account of my first Night-Show</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;There is always a first time! I saw my first night-show (Paa at Satyam in Dec hols). Totally unplanned idea got executed perfectly well and we had an awesome time :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eating in Tifanys for 10 days had driven me mad and I badly needed a change. It was only in the evening around 5pm did I make my mind up to go to ascendas for dinner. Experiencing the same state of mind, all my wing mates (Akila, Kad and Tata) immediately agreed to the idea. So we, four girls left the institute by around 8:30pm (Yeah it took us 3hrs to gather 4 ppl :D). My stomach had already started to rumble and hence we had cup-corn at Guru on the way to assuage our hunger for the time being. We managed to enter Ascendas with two ID cards and some Tam fundae at 9pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had almost decided our menu on the way and ordered as quickly as possible. Pizza + Sub + Something + Softy. We hardly cared about the people around and gobbled the food as soon as possible. By the end of the dinner, Akila proposed the idea of a Night Show at Satyam. All of us were sketching plans for a week to watch Paa and they never turned into action. Within a couple of minutes we were out of Ascendas bargaining with auto-drivers to go to Satyam. It was around 10pm already and we were running short of time. Finally we managed to reach Satyam at around 10:05pm, and guess what! We had just 4 seats for Paa left; but we had to make a decision since it was split into 3+1. After a quick discussion we concluded that we shall take a chance and went ahead with the idea of watching Paa; hoping to get some adjustment in the theatre. And we did manage to push three guys in a row to our seats and finally four of us sat together with pop-corns and cold coffees; all set to see the movie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The movie was awesome. Amitabh Bhachchan was brilliant in his role. Music was too good and after a long time did we get to enjoy unadulterated comedy. Apart from the story, the cinematography was also great. Abhishek Bhacchan looked too handsome ;) and watches of both Vidya Balan and Abhishek caught our eyes. We enjoyed the movie (also the advertisements during intervals :P ) a lot and laughed even during the most emotional scenes. (Seemed like the people in the theater were cursing us :P )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was around 1am in the night (er... morning) when the movie was over. It took us around 20 minutes to get back to the institute and we walked back to the hostel by 2am.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-2628530902118518987?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/2628530902118518987/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=2628530902118518987' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/2628530902118518987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/2628530902118518987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2010/01/account-of-my-first-night-show.html' title='An account of my first Night-Show'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-5575836516617398635</id><published>2009-11-11T08:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-11T09:22:02.054-08:00</updated><title type='text'>GaNitha</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;gaNitha means Mathematics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I attended a special lecture on  "&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_%28number_theory%29"&gt;Number partitions&lt;/a&gt; as an extreme value problem" by &lt;a href="http://www.imsc.res.in/%7Errajesh/"&gt;Dr. Rajesh&lt;/a&gt; from IMSc, Chennai, as a part of my Physics Minor course. It was an extremely interesting lecture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some how this made me look back and see how my interest in Mathematics grew and realized how blessed I am when it comes to Mathematics teachers. Since school (class 5th) I have always had really good mathematics teachers. This blog post to is dedicated to all my mathematics teachers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I still remember my first Algebra Class in 5th standard by my Math teacher (Ms. Vasudha ?? Cannot recall her name now :( ). The way she introduced the concept of algebra was enchanting. I was so thrilled how we could solve for unknowns! Somehow the x,y,z s in the equations looked fascinating. Later I had Ms. Jayashree, Sister Royaline, Mrs. Cinthia D'souza teaching me Mathematics in school. During +2 I had Vasudeva sir teaching in the college (Pre-University college).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the pre-university level, I had the opportunity to learn mathematics under HLS Rao sir. The most amazing mathematics teacher I have encountered till now. A teacher who can teach mathematics without writing a single word on board! The motivation that he gave us during those days is something that I shall cherish through out my life. I will require a full post dedicated to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here at IIT Madras, I have been lucky to have really good Mathematics teachers. &lt;a href="http://mat.iitm.ac.in/home/jayan/public_html/index.html"&gt;Prof. A V Jayanthan&lt;/a&gt;, under whom I did my first two semester Math courses (Calculus I and II) and also my Linear Algebra course and Prof. Natarajan who taught me Probability and Random Processes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently I am doing Basic Graph Theory under &lt;a href="http://mat.iitm.ac.in/home/sac/public_html/"&gt;Prof. Choudum&lt;/a&gt;. Another  amazing teacher. Its a pleasure to do the course under him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-5575836516617398635?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/5575836516617398635/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=5575836516617398635' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5575836516617398635'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5575836516617398635'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2009/11/ganitha.html' title='GaNitha'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-2946748132013816751</id><published>2009-11-02T07:28:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-11T08:06:19.312-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The frien(I)DLY dinner</title><content type='html'>We had a very Special Dinner on 24th of October, 2009.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I entered the mess ignoring the board which read Special Dinner. Over-estimating the level of my hunger, I ended up taking a plate full of variety of items (which looked weird). There were finger chips which were really over-sized, gulab jamun which looked unhealthy, something that resembled manchurian, some special rice and curd rice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dinner was being served by the mess people (generally we help ourselves). The man in-charge of serving curd rice seemed too stingy. Even after requesting twice, he was reluctant to put more than two spoons of curd rice. Fortunately(?), he had to leave the place for a moment and I was quick enough to make use of his absence to fill my plate with a heap of curd rice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to a table and sat with a bunch of juniors. They started to laugh looking at my plate. I ignored them and started to eat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The gulab jamun tasted idly-ish! Moving to the manchurian, it tasted idly-ish too. The finger chips was no exception and the curd rice was not curd rice! It was crumble idly mixed with curds. Everything was IDLY!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, it was actually a "IDLY" dinner!

Producing lakhs of  Engineers takes us nowhere; in fact it  reduces the quality.&lt;br /&gt;Its a simple logical fact that first you ought to strengthen the primary and secondary education in the country especially in rural areas. Then the "backward" people will be able to enter the elite institutions even without any quota.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The condition of primary schools in India is pathetic (leave away the posh private and International schools). Thousands of the really backward people (not just w.r.t  caste) are struggling to get the basic education and even the basic needs of life. In such a situation instead of concentrating on the crucial issues, our wonderful politicians, as usual for their own selfish interests increase and add quotas in the elite Institutions in the country. Our former HRD minister went another step ahead and started you-know-how-many IITs. These stupid steps harm the quality of higher education in the country. Such damages cannot be easily undone.&lt;br /&gt;Every year hundreds (now thousands) of quota seats are not filled, denying the opportunity for other deserving general category students.&lt;br /&gt;Will the government ever raise above petty selfish interests and really work in the National Interest?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-5415071240658076102?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/5415071240658076102/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=5415071240658076102' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5415071240658076102'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5415071240658076102'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2009/06/quota-effect.html' title='The Quota Effect'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SkMZYw53SuI/AAAAAAAAAXw/64FJ4LKaesI/s72-c/needisaymore.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-2576237271623124293</id><published>2009-05-01T16:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-17T00:10:37.704-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Disjoint</title><content type='html'>The last day of my fourth semester!!&lt;br /&gt;I just cannot believe this. It means that I am half way through my life in IIT!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well. I have had a so called the "rod" semester. 26 credits it was!!! With no slots free, all afternoons occupied and yeah, with lab making you do extra work.&lt;br /&gt;As a matter of fact, this being my first blog of the year, further proves my point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No. No. I was not that busy! I just did not feel like blogging about anything in this semester!! I mean, nothing phenomenal happened in the semester. It was just another even semester, with of course few credits more. So, what did I do in this semester?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ABCDEFGS.&lt;br /&gt;I have not forgotten my alphabet! The letters out there in capitals were the slots I had. Do not worry. I am not going to bore you to death with the description of each course in this post. It needs a new post and of course a lot more time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The semester started and within no time Saarang came and went; followed by the Quiz 1. Before we could even get out of the trauma of the first quiz, the  quiz 2 barged in and then there were the presentations, lab exams, lab projects and end semester exams and that was it! Oh my God, The semester just got over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had my share of fun with colors at &lt;a href="http://www.saarang.org/"&gt;Saarang&lt;/a&gt;. I spent almost all my time at Indraprasta (the place where fine-arts competitions took place), splashing colors around. I did face painting, glass painting and also made puppets!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a part of &lt;a href="http://www.astro.iitm.ac.in/Home/?q=node/23"&gt;Astro Club&lt;/a&gt;, International Year of Astronomy, we had theory and observation sessions quite  regularly in the first two months. We met every Friday evening for theory session and had sessions on Friday and Saturday nights. I enjoyed them  a lot!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then there was Boltzmann, a bunch of Physics enthusiastic students  guided by &lt;a href="http://www.physics.iitm.ac.in/people_files/faculty/suresh.html"&gt;Prof. SG&lt;/a&gt; . We just meet mostly on a Saturday afternoon, and discuss interesting topics. For the first time, I started attending the sessions of Boltzmann regularly. Yet  times the topics discussed seemed a little over-head projection but they made me learn so much!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I broke my previous semester records and ended up watching around 25 movies! Of course, we had cute little birthday parties, treats, hostel nights etc., giving us an opportunity to enjoy the sunny side of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And there it ends!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-2576237271623124293?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/2576237271623124293/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=2576237271623124293' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/2576237271623124293'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/2576237271623124293'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2009/05/disjoint.html' title='Disjoint'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-533432660556705148</id><published>2008-12-18T23:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-29T01:56:34.813-08:00</updated><title type='text'>SanteyoLagondu maneyamaaDi....</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Well... If you are making a choice of the location to build your house, then better be careful! Never build a house any where near a religious institution. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;My home is close to a religious institution of a particular community. In fact there are about five places of worship within a radius of 1 km, around my home. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It was around 8 pm. After a round of shopping with the family, I was back home, tired. I just layed down on the sofa. Suddenly there started a bombarding noise. The institution, which is just a few meters away from my home, was conducting some sort of a function, which I suspect was a competition of reading their Holy Book. They had not only blocked the entire road with their function, but also put on two loud speakers, side by side. Over this, the two loud speakers had a time lag between them. This worsened the whole atmosphere. The function went on and on. I could not make head or tail out of what was getting out of the two speakers; reasons: one it was in a language slightly difficult to comprehend and the other being the time lag between them. Even if it were in my mother tongue, I am sure I would not be in a better state. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The whole evening was a torture. I was trying to convince myself to keep my temper under control. Telling myself to be tolerent and blah blah...But how long? 9pm... 10 pm... 10:30pm... 11pm... 11:30, 11:45... 11:55... 12 !??12:30 pm... it went on...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Where were the people who are supposed to maintain law and order? It was a gross violation of the law that prohibits loud speakers after 10 pm. Moreover, there is a Maternity hospital just few yards from the place where the funciton was conducted. A hospital... implies a silence zone, where there are higher regulations about the noise levels. When general public around were suffering so much with the intolerably high decibels, what would be the state of the patients, the new born babies in the hospital?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;But who cares? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It has become a kind of competition among various religious institutions these days. Who can play the loudest? Each community is trying to show its superiority over the other. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Where are the basic human values gone missing? Can't we for a while forget the religions and think as humans? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;When are we going to learn?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-533432660556705148?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/533432660556705148/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=533432660556705148' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/533432660556705148'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/533432660556705148'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2008/12/santeyolagondu-maneyamaadi.html' title='SanteyoLagondu maneyamaaDi....'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-5451132791949058940</id><published>2008-11-30T06:08:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-22T01:05:53.886-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life in iiT'/><title type='text'>Moorakke Mukthaya</title><content type='html'>Third semester!&lt;br /&gt;Its over!&lt;br /&gt;I have been in IIT for a year and half.... er!? A year and a half ??? I cant believe this !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being in &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;THE ELEC&lt;/span&gt; department of IIT Madras which is know far and wide for its "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;RODness&lt;/span&gt;", I knew what to expect and what not to. Or I thought I knew it, till the semester started to gear up and THE ELEC department started to show its ramifications in RODness. Only then did I realise what the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;ELEC EFFECT &lt;/span&gt;actually is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The three depart&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;mental&lt;/span&gt; courses that I did in this semester were&lt;br /&gt;• 1 Digital systems&lt;br /&gt;• 2  Network System&lt;br /&gt;• 3 CAD laboratory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Digital Systems: EC104&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was taken by Prof. Vekatesh and Prof. Ravishankar. The course teaches you the philosophy of life. There are only two states in this world, 0 and 1, everything else is an illusion.&lt;br /&gt;The course seemed all fair and fine till i held quiz 1. A ' (complement) completely complemented my life in the course. At the end of the day, knowing that the grading is binary too, huh!.... er.... there are only two states.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Network systems: EC204&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prof. Vinita taught us how to be punctual. I never believed that I, Ramya K V, can ever be "in time" to a class. Me?? er... I cant believe this! I am the kind who wakes up ten minutes before a class and barely manage to get inside the classroom before the Professor.&lt;br /&gt;All through the semester we bulbed and bulbed and bulbed. Prof.VV had to give up on us finally. Can you imagine, a class of &gt;40 odd ppl, all yet to be Electrical Engineers from IIT Madras, having done a 4 credit course on Electro-Magnetic Circuits in the previous semester, did not know what "Natural Frequency" means till almost the end of this course?&lt;br /&gt;Finally we did manage to transforme almost everything on the way. Being non-causal, non-linear and time variant, I too finally managed to Fourier transform Laplace!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;CAD laboratory: EC205&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Programming Laboratory. Its fun, yeah! fun, you see. Really, I did enjoy programming.  But beware of this course!! This One Credit course can potentially take away all your happiness in life.&lt;br /&gt;I got scared! Yes, literally I got scared. I never thought that I shall love Programming so much in life that I will pack everything else and sit crazily in front of the machine and become a machine myself. This is not I want to do in life, I knew it, yet this bloody thing was not leaving me. Thank God finally I did manage to pull myself out of  the "Paapakoopa" (&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;The Cursed Place&lt;/span&gt;) **.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Despite the heavy load, Elec Rocks!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The "other" courses during the semester were:&lt;br /&gt;• 4 MA205&lt;br /&gt;• 5 AM110&lt;br /&gt;• 6 ID120&lt;br /&gt;• 7 BT101&lt;br /&gt;• 8 HS509&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Probability And Random Processes: MA205&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is one of the courses I thoroughly enjoyed, especially at the end of the semester. Prof. Natarajan was quite good. Though, he was not so audible, mike helped out.&lt;br /&gt;Having no fundae on permutation and combinations, I had to start with the basic concepts of counting. Moving on from counting to Probability to Random Variables to the Stochastic Processes was an amazing journey.  Also we learnt how to read any kind of handwriting :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Engineering Mechanics: AM110&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The subject so dear to me became the most hateful course this semester. Certain Professor V took the course , huh!! My hard luck. I never thought I could ever not like er... actually hate a Professor to this extent in my life.&lt;br /&gt;I am done with the course. That is it. Period.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Ecology and Environment: ID120&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to the Supreme Court of India. We had to sit and bare with this course for two hours per week and give two exams. Well, we need  to be concerned with the environment. Yes. I agree completely, but does that mean that I have to sit in a class of ~552, spread across three rooms, with Professors and Teaching Assistants patrolling around in the class room? Well, its over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Life Sciences: BT101&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to the Supreme Court of India again. We had to again sit for two hours per week and give two exams. The lessons that we were made to study were all interesting. But why don't they understand that we do not have 48 hours a day to sit and read  Campbell. I can potentially give a Medical Entrance test now.&lt;br /&gt;And yeah, its over too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Accounting For Social Sciences: HS509&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The one and only course that I enjoyed all through the semester. Prof. Umakant Dash was GOD!! If it was not for this course, I guess I would have been insane by now. The delicacy of accounting, its intricate nature were made all so easy by the professor.&lt;br /&gt;The only formula that we needed to know was Assets= Liabilities+Owner's Equity !&lt;br /&gt;The Balance sheet, the Income Statements and the Cash flow statements seem so cute and nice now! The business news pages in The Hindu has started to make sense :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;P.S&lt;/span&gt;: I have nothing against Programmers! This is my personal point of view.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-5451132791949058940?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/5451132791949058940/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=5451132791949058940' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5451132791949058940'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/5451132791949058940'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2008/11/third-semester-its-over-i-have-been-in.html' title='Moorakke Mukthaya'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-3731846788201830369</id><published>2008-11-09T20:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-09T20:26:34.531-08:00</updated><title type='text'>avalokana</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Its been more than five months that I wrote a blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Have I had nothing to say at all?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Being fresh at the beginning of the semester after my first trip to the North (Delhi, Agra, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Shimla&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Manali&lt;/span&gt;), my first ever flight journey, first experience on &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Rajdhani&lt;/span&gt; Express, first trip on a toy train.

I never could understand where I headed through this course. Till the end I curled and curled around to find what gradient meant. Finally I did manage to get some feel of del, the “&lt;st1:state&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;del&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;, del_dot and del_cross”.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;u&gt;CY101&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;H | Ψ&gt;= E | Ψ&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Er… !??&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;What’s this | &gt; ? May be the Prof Writes ( ) as | &gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;This is what I concluded after the first class of CY101, the “Quantum Course”. The Professor (Prof. Chandrakumar) was really awesome on teaching. It was slightly flying above my head initially. But gradually it became the most favorite part of the course.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Next was the Thermodynamics and kinetics part of the course. Seemed quite familiar but was not so! But I enjoyed the jokes of from Prof and the stories of the scientist, that’s all I heard in his class and a result I cupped in it royally. My wonderful ability of sleeping with my eyes open helped a lot to deceive the Prof (he caught me in the last class though).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;u&gt;MA101&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;The most difficult of all math courses (according to the students). The certain Piskunov (piski being the pet name) is the “Bible”. The certain Prof. K is never convinced that students study. He believes that we all have “Lost the train”. The class average in the quizzes was not encouraging too (4.25 out of 20!!!). We were getting used to see the single digits on the answer papers by then. After RKK’s zero (I managed to pull off a 2 in that, details later in ID110 : P) we were hardly shaken by these binary numbers. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;We got entangled in the series of convergence and got diverged sequentially. Integration never seemed so difficult a topic before this course. Everything seemed crystal clear, so obvious. Of course nothing is obvious in Mathematics; you need to prove even 2+2=4. That’s quite hard, I know; everyone knows after MA101 experience.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;We had certain &lt;a href="http://mat.iitm.ac.in/%7Ejayan/"&gt;Prof. Jayanthan&lt;/a&gt;, a quite interesting man. He has an orkut profile; his homepage is interesting as well. Mathematics being my first love, I enjoyed the class as well as the course.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;u&gt;EP110&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt; (PMT- Professional Major Theory :P )&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;It was a fun course too. No exams!!! There were lectures by various Profs. I attended all of them. But to be honest, I slept through most of them. The presentations for evaluations were really very useful. I learnt a lot in the process. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Even after attending all the classes we ended up getting a G (G-good. VG- Very good. M-Marginal) for attendance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;u&gt;ID110&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;An Introduction to Engineering Design.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;It was a combination of several lectures by different professors. We got to listen to a range of topics. We got to know how CD player, projector works; about electrochemical cells to airplanes. Yup… we even came to know that we are 98% bananas!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Some of the lectures were interesting to the core while others were sleeping pills. The ones in the virtual class were blissfully snoring while the ones in real class were no better! But there were TA’s who often disturbed the peaceful sleep (to sign the attendance).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;What else can they do with 550 students? One class has the Prof, while the other two can “see” and “here” (if one wishes) the Prof. That’s what I meant by the “Real” and the&lt;span style=""&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Virtual” class.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;The projects were fun.

I said, “Sir, I need the death certificate of father”. “Is it registered? Have you used the certificate before?”. “Yes sir.” “Do you have a copy of it?” “No, sir”. “Ok. But it will be difficult to search. Come in”. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That was a narrow passage leading to a room.

He asked, “How many years ago did he die?”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;“Recently, sir.7th January 2008” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;“Well.

Anka !! :</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Thud!!! Holidays again. Now that I am free to do what I want :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As usual I saw zillion movies, ate, read and talked unlimitedly. Bored by these activities finally I decided to continue the documentation of the memories of my first year in IITM.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am not a “freshie” any more. As I stack my first year stuffs neatly, so as to pass them on as heritage to my juniors (of course after PDP sessions), I recall my first year in the institute. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;After the first few days of Personality development sessions (PDP sessions- &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;a “cleaner” name for ragging), we started getting along with each other. Classes!!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Classes at &lt;st1:time minute="0" hour="8"&gt;8 a.m.&lt;/st1:time&gt; First few weeks saw high activity in the wing bogs early in the morning. When my fellow mates in the wing woke up as early as &lt;st1:time minute="0" hour="5"&gt;5  am&lt;/st1:time&gt; (Info from friends -no clue if anyone woke up before), I was peacefully rolling on my bed. I had calculated well. I am not going to wake up before &lt;st1:time minute="15" hour="7"&gt;7:15 am&lt;/st1:time&gt;. How much time would this girl who used to manage to get to the classroom at &lt;st1:time minute="0" hour="8"&gt;8 am&lt;/st1:time&gt; in 12&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; even while waking up at &lt;st1:time minute="45" hour="7"&gt;7:45 am&lt;/st1:time&gt; require to get ready? Mind you, I used to get to class just in time or some five minutes late, but after completing all the morning “work”(which includes bathing :P ) and also after having Breakfast!&lt;span style=""&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;So it should not be difficult here in IITM too. Slowly and steadily as time went on, the early morning activity in the wing slowly decreased. The time of waking up of my wing mates exponentially decreased, but I maintained my constant &lt;st1:time minute="15" hour="7"&gt;7:15 am&lt;/st1:time&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We used to have classes from &lt;st1:time minute="0" hour="8"&gt;8am&lt;/st1:time&gt; to &lt;st1:time minute="0" hour="17"&gt;5pm&lt;/st1:time&gt;, with some slots free here and there. “Slots”, this reminds me of the difficulty we faced in figuring out how to read our time table. The time table given to us looked like :&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SClCQmDJ0TI/AAAAAAAAAB4/-FoqfMom8FE/s1600-h/Slide1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SClCQmDJ0TI/AAAAAAAAAB4/-FoqfMom8FE/s320/Slide1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5199760097635062066" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It looked like a great puzzle to us. We had no clue from where to start reading this table. The “Code Breaking” work started. With the curriculum book in one hand and the time table in another, I sat down for a couple of hours. &lt;st1:city&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;Eureka&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;!!! I got it!!! Finally I managed to read the “da IITM code”!!! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Coming back to the classes, first few days were really boring for we did not have any classes. All that we ended up doing was moving from one class room to another. How would this happen in IITM? No classes for two days? What a waste! The third day the classes kick started. With in two days the classes were at full swing. With enormous courses in front of us, we got the shock of IITM curriculum.

It happened!! It indeed happened!!! Finally it did happen!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all such long desperate wait did not go in vain ……&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It had been my dream from six months. A wish which had rooted deep within me. There came so many precious moments wherein I could have spelt out my wish. But alas! It never materialized. I remember the starry night in October 2007, when it was so close to happen. I was delighted. A bright glow in my eyes, a faint smile on my face. How desperate I was! How desperate to smell the fragrance! To feel fresh! To begin a new life! But it did not come true. My hopes were lost. I was completely shattered. I never thought a joyful moment will ever come in my life. Sitting in the corner of my room along with a best friend of mine, I wept silently for months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Days passed, weeks went by, months gone…..huh… how could such a thing happen to me? I never thought that I would ever reach this state. But I did have a small hope, somewhere in the remote corner of mind. It may happen some day. May be the time was not for it. May be the Lord is testing me. I knew my wish would come true some day. And it came true yesterday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes! It did! Now my hopes are redeemed, my eyes are eaming with happiness and satisfaction. Ah….how wonderful the world is!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the feelings of my bed spread which was lying in corner of my room since September 2007. I think it the other four bed sheets and the four buckets of clothes shared the same feelings. But their await was not so long, it was a just little more than a month or so [:P]. It is really not my mistake. Not my laziness. For example I do wash the essentials clothes everyday [:P].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was no washing machine working in our hostel except one. I did go to it one night in January to get my clothes washed. But it was so painful because I live in second floor and the damn machine was in ground floor. Finally after a long fight, two new washing machines were brought. But see the irony, they brought only two machines and placed one in first floor and the other in third floor. What sin did we, the second floor people commit? Anyway I had made up my mind that I must wash my clothes.&lt;br /&gt;I started my work at three in the after noon yesterday. After persevering for about seven and a half hours all my clothes were washed! All the rooms in my wing had my clothes and bed sheets hanging in their room [:P]. People coming to the bathroom in the wing in third floor were stunned at my dedication! “You are still washing clothes!?” was their question. And my answer was a smile. [:)].&lt;br /&gt;Believe me. It needs a lot of dedication, determination and devotion [ the 3 D,s] to wash clothes for seven and a half hours on a semi automatic washing machine situated a floor above yours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of you may feel (especially IITians) why we should get pained so much to wash clothes. But it’s really worthwhile to put such effort to wash clothes. Ah… It feels so heavenly now that my clothes are washed [:)].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;:)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4510449531206697721-7533186498649512401?l=teredamana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/feeds/7533186498649512401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4510449531206697721&amp;postID=7533186498649512401' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/7533186498649512401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510449531206697721/posts/default/7533186498649512401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://teredamana.blogspot.com/2008/03/antarangada-mrudangaantu-tomtanana.html' title='Antarangada mrudanga....antu tomtanana....'/><author><name>ramya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08174023404113482714</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_de_jJuo87hg/SABVwXo6JAI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FKsyjaNRMuM/S220/DSC00429.JPG'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510449531206697721.post-843883907170675635</id><published>2008-02-23T14:45:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-06-19T02:24:11.377-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='uncategoriesed'/><title type='text'>"Essence Of Life "</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:14;"&gt;Old is Gold….
