What Engineering Really Teaches Us

What have I learnt?
here are a few things that i have learnt during my engineering days:

  1. Patience: First thing i learnt in engineering.You wait till the examiner feels like taking your viva.It does not matter if you have been waiting in college since 8 in the morning and he arrives at 1230.He still needs a lunch break at 1245.
  2. Time Management: How to juggle assignments, fests, vivas, practicals, proxy, chilling, stationery, and 75% attendance; what better way to learn how to fit it in 24 hours?
  3. Image Processing: No, I don't refer to matlab or any such thing. I mean how to keep up a smiling and respecting face in front of the teachers even as the dole out mountains of assignments, and recognizing which lecture we must avoid at all costs today.
  4. Vocabulary: The face may be pasted with an all deceiving smile, but the mind is free to use its certain choice words.
  5. Sorting and Searching: Sort the textbooks at the start of the sem with an aim to study regularly. Search for the Easy Solutions at the end of the sem at each and every bookstore you know before your classmates poach them.
  6. Comparators: Not how much portion that guy/gal has finished; rather how much free time he/she has left now.
  7. Application of Technology: varied uses of BBs, WhattsApp, Pen Drives, Vodafone Internet Plan to access Google at the time of immediate knowledge requirement when your tried and rusted brain fails you on entering the examination center.
  8. Digital Logic: He has done the assignment. Hence he is my best friend.
  9. Female Chauvinism: They can draw, therefore they can dictate.
  10. Career Guidance: Engineering definitely helps you decide what you are gonna do after your four years,viz. MBA.
