The Third Semester !

By the end of third semester I have found something to add to my blog, before starting it i want to say that this all content is my personal opinion, some people may find it wrong or some of you might be agreed to me . if it is good i expect nothing from you but if u feel that i am wrong somewhere in my opinion please do write a comment... after i wrong things should go out , they always create a difference....

Our batch has a bad name in NITC that this batch is not good in studies and it is true also, in boys there are very less people who really want a to have all bookish knowledge and most of us are like not taking any kind of tension and fear about studies, and there are some people who are really working hard but because of some or other reason not able o score higher grades. Although there is a group of people who are extremely good in grades and knowledge but majority is not so there are spots on the batch's image.

Let me start from the start of this semester we all have a idea in our mind that this semester we have to do somewhat better, this year we wont be wasting much time in extra activities, and so many things . Though it is very normal to have such things in mind of a student at the beginnings of session, it depends on him/her how far he/she maintains the words. I started the semester with the same view and this time i am the class representative as no one came out for that job so i thought to try it, i planned some things for the semester to make it different from the previous semesters.

During our first semester all of us have enjoyed the programming subject under Saju madam , this semester she was back for Networks so many people were happy to have a class with Saju madam, as it an odd semester a new batch has to join the MCA Family@NITC. At out joining time we had missed so much time going to seniors and spending night with them learning the life@nitc. this time we all had that thing in our mind and everyone has decided to have fresher party in a week of joining of the junior batch, and to conduct some constructive classes for them.

We planned to have Linux classes for them, for which i have done some preparatory work with some of my batch mates. The content of lectures was also decided and distributed among us. Other than this we planned to have web designing classes for them, Juniors were excellent people, but fresher party was delayed reason: actually our seniors who were getting nice placements at starting itself want to give placement party to us i mean our batch according to tradition of MCA Family. now if fresher party for juniors is arranged before this placement party seniors must invite to juniors also so we were asked to delay the "welcome party".

now three weeks gone waiting for the "placement part" at last we had a great party from Seniors in TAJ Hotel party was nice we enjoyed the food at the hotel and later on the Calicut beach, that was my first visit to a beach, before this i have seen beach from far distance some two times. Happening of the party gives green signal to "Welcome Party" for juniors, and proceeded for that. we took permission from Dept, aryabhatta out lecture hall was booked as venue for the party. after permission work over one night i called all juniors boys to my room at hostel for asked their interest. we do some cultural activities during fresher party so it was the time for their talent. but unfortunately time was not in ours, Our chief warden came to visit our hostel and we were caught conducting a meeting with juniors. i tried my best to say the actual situation but they were new to nitc who is going to believe in such a situation, anyway chief warden didn't took any strict action for that, he has to inform to our department about the issue and he said all to our Head of Department i was called by HOD sir. i said all things and with a warning we were out of his room, but another bad thing happened fresher party has to be shifted to next month, i am still confused with this decision, i mean if some ragging is going on it will be there before fresher party and taking fresher party to next month means giving more time for ragging. Anyway it was shifted and we have to put out plans on a pause for another month.

HOD sir was convinced with my words but when Nazeer sir got this thing he was angry with us he called me and said so many things i was not allowed to say anything, and i do have(not only myself , we all) respect for him so we can't go against him, as MCA coordinator he is always there for MCAs. but another day he got some news from girls hostel and after that he came to our class and there was an unforgettable Lecture by him. i will remember those words forever, i don't know who said him things that made him against our batch.

Now this was the time we can't even stand next to our juniors but still we helped them to best of ours. Now u might be thinking how this helping word coming. After coming to NITC campus many of juniors were not feeling well, few of them suffered with jaundices and were hospitalized also . during those days my classmates were the only people who used to go to them for food, in rotation many of us spent night in the hospital, all moral and financial support we can give we have given. I would like to mention two of the incidences during this time.

one fine day a junior was suffering from headache and we got that he had some problems of tumor in his past life. two of our batchmates took him to BM Hospital in the city, we had a test on the day, and they had to left that, our good luck at the last of the semester they got a chance to write it again with some less weightage of marks contribution.

another incident one of the boys feeling abdomen pain, already he is had some symptoms of jaundice and he had taken some prescription from nearby health clinic. now as soon as we got the information about him one if us, Girish went to get an autorikshaa so that we can take him to the clinic, but time was too late to get an auto, ultimately the he made some policemen convinced for help and he came to juniors hostel in a police deep.
