There was no chance to quit studies after intermediate for
me as I could not cheat my parents.My parents were caring and faithful to me. So
I had to do something.In our country there is only one option for students
after choosing PCM that is B.Tech from any prestigious college to show the people
that we are in race. And these fools are not aware that why are they following
the trend of B.Tech. I also aspired for B.Tech but my aim was just to get the
degree so that no one can call me illiterate. But from inside I was always seeking
knowledge not the marks. Though I did not scored 90% or more but I was confident
and conscious.
My journey towards Amity started as it is a famed college
and my elder cousin also passed four years here. I thanked Allah(swt) when I
got selected for Civil Engineering in ASET.I was unaware of the storms and
thunderstorms in form of faculties, hods, semesters, assignments, minors,
majors etc waiting for me. If I was aware of all of future happenings in Amity,
I would have quit. But that is life and we have to face and adjust ourselves
and for the things to go in right way. From here my journey of semesters
started.
I divided my four years into semesters and aimed at happy
ending of each. Though every semester seemed to be tough but I made myself
tougher. First semester started with shaking hand with Drona, he was CR. But
what the hell is CR ? I asked him and he replied proudly. I said to myself that
be ready for all these foolish stuff. In my first class I was sitting ahead of
backbenchers(second last seat). All of them were vampires in the eyes of
faculties. But they became my best buddies. So I also became one of them. First
semester just passed in recognising room numbers and how to reach to different labs.
Also there were new terms like proxy,OD,PL. The most frustrating was auxiliary
notebook which was used to take readings.
Second semester gave me some good feel at Amity as
the time table was loose compared to last sem’s. But I also understood aim of
some faculties. There aim was just to pass time in form of classes and torture
students in form of attendance. We were asked to reach the class before time. I
always thought that “ohhh, we are humans not machines.we can not follow every second, we can be late”. But there was
no one to understand human nature. Faculties showed harsh behaviour and I with
my group mates showed harsher behaviour.I was sent out of classes and lashed by
words numerous times and I never regret for all of this. There is a quote by Umar
bin Khattab (ra) :
“Sometimes people
with worst past create the best future”
Exams came continuously and I was always same for every exam
whether it was a minor, a major or an internal because I never prepared. Here I
followed Edison who said :
“Tomorrow is my exam
and I have not prepared of it because a piece of paper can not decide my future”.
And this is cent percent truth. Exams are nothing just copy-paste
of questions from class rooms to examination halls. In the class faculties do not know
what to teach and how to teach, in examination hall I did not know what to
write and how to write. All exams ended well I was never afraid of results
because they gave me marks of my one night study not my full capacity and
knowledge.
A new thing emerged and that was internship. If you want us
to become industry ready then what is the need to concentrate only on theoretical
concepts not the practical concepts in the classes. I also faced it. Both the
time the rudest person was my guide and I was awarded least marks in the whole
ASET. Though marks were more than 0.
Foreign language was also one of the irritating thing which
pinched me on every Monday. Still I am not able to speak English fluently than
how can you suppose that i can become a powerful Spanish learner. Time kept on
going and I am still at 3-4 words of Spanish.
The best thing of my time spent in amity was support of my
colleagues, every classmate of mine helped me and contributed to my
personality. I am thankful to you all. Specially Chochu group and
Piyush,Anilesh,Abhinav,Nilay,Rohit I can not imagine my life without you all.
Every cherishing moment of my college life is connected with atleast one of
you. Sometimes my heart beats faster that after college what will happen but I
always tell a lie to myself that my college life will never end.
That’s life we have to move on for a brighter side. I didn’t
get best things in Amity but I enjoyed them in the best way. I also did not get
easy tasks but I enjoyed facing hardships. If I got some ease then
automatically it was converted into some difficulties. I enjoy facing it with
difficulties. This blog I am writing is at last moments just before the time
deadline. I got much time to write it but again I am near to deadline.
Adolf Hitler said :
If you don’t like a rule, Just follow it reach at the top
and change the rule.
I hope that I will get chance and change many rules and
regulations inside Amity as well as outside Amity.
