16 Things All Engineers Would Relate To
1) There are no girls in the class and the sex ratio is worse than the sex ratio of Haryana – You know the scene in a typical engineering college: most of the students are guys!
2) There are more exams than there are days in a month- You seem to be constantly giving exams. And yes, how can we forget the surprise tests? It seems that the reason you come to college is to give exams.
3) The word back means something else than you actually imagined- If you are thinking that it’s about getting failed, you may be mistaken. Although it is important not to get a back, it is even more important to ensure that you have a ‘back’. It stands for the backup of people when a bunch of people is ready to beat you up.
4) You learn strong values like begging for marks, treating teachers with respect and lobbying with assistant professors- You may be making fun of them when you are in the canteen, but you need to respect them. They control your marks and your future, naturally.
5) There isn’t a girl in the mechanical engineering building- It’s all blokes. You are screwed if you were hoping to see girls. I know, life is hard, indeed.
6) All students from core branches purchase projects from the same shop and none of them have an idea on how it actually functions and it’s crazy how we all think alike!
7) Vivas are very similar to courtroom scenes – The teacher knows you have not studied, you know you have not studied, yet you manage to get past it by bluffing. We’re sure that the teacher knows it’s not easy to crack vivas as such and probably that’s why you pass most of the times.
8) If you are a boy, then you would have probably received at least three death threats because you were talking to a girl. It’s best to stay out of these kind of trouble but hey, life is not always the best, is it?
9) If you are a girl, you would have had at least 5 boys asking for your phone number, to whom, you do not want to give your phone number. It’s right, we know that you are asking for that girl’s number and wanting to know her more, as we speak.
10) When you come to college, you hate alcohol, by the time you leave college; you cannot live your life without it. How else would you blow off the stress huh? It’s not the best way to go about but we hope you will get past it!
11) If you happen to live in a boy’s hostel, the only music you would hear is that of pink Floyd- Moreover, you are always high! if you get what we mean.
12) If you happen to live in a girl’s hostel, you will always be clicking photos and uploading them on social networking sites.
13) Your attendance heads south every year and by the last year, it hits the single-digit number.
14) You don’t find time to read a single newspaper page, but before the day of the exam, you can read a 400 page book in 3 hours.
15) There’s always a nerd who tells people to study for a topic, just before the exam and the topic is asked in the exam. Wow, that was really lucky. You need to thank that guy like this.
16) Exams are the best time to show much we care for each other- Co-operation and understanding is even evident between people, who normally would not even talk to each other!
