The invincibles

The professors in our campus are really unbeatables. Most of them are soo good that they can give their counterparts in MIT a run for their money. Obviously they are the best in our country. Most of them are damn good in what they have specialized, their degrees speaks volumes of their abilities. Most of them are PHds from highly reputed institutions.But in this post, I want to express in a comical exaggerated way some interesting features of some of them. For obvious reasons, I won't name anyone :D. Most of the descriptions given below are based on what my friends have told me since I haven't taken up those courses taught by them.

There is one professor who loves the blackboard very much. So much so that if a bomb explodes, he will run out of the class carrying the blackboard. I am sure if the blackboard was given a chance to write the exams, it would have topped the class for that course.

Then there is another prof who speaks soo fluently in english, but hates seeing anyone smile/laugh in the class. My friend was once a victim of this and from that day onwards he laughs with his mouth closed (Now don't try to imagine it. No one, who hasn't sat in this professor's class will ever be able to do that).

Another prof has this super duper ability to make even the most insomniac person go to sleep. I have a gut feeling that he must be hired by the pharmaceutical companies for testing their new sleeping drugs to test whether the drugs can match his efficiency.

There is another prof who gives marks for class participation. Anyone raising his hands in class is eligible for these marks irrespective of whether the person really had some doubt or whether he lifted his hand to scratch his underarm.

One prof speaks soo fluently that there is a hot debate among students whether he speaks Russian or French.But everyone agrees it cannot be English.

One extremely talented prof is very fond of english alphabets. He makes sure that he somehow uses all the alphabets in all the mathematical formulas and derivations.
Here is an eg:
"Consider a function F containing 2 variables b,c. When you apply a function H on this function, you get function G. Keep applying H on F and you get functions M,N,O,P....". Once he finishes up the english alphabets, he starts attacking the Greeks. "Take alpha, beta, gamma...". Thank god there are only 26 letters in english. I shudder to think what would have happened to we poor souls in his class if there were over 100 alphabets.Whew.

Before I end this post, I really would like to thank all these professors who will shape my future. It is such a refreshing change , compared to my Btech days, to be taught by people who knows what they are teaching and that too the best in what they teach. Thank you dear profs :).

Damsel in Distress

"Hahahaha you will never be able to escape. C'mon Basanti, dance for me. Dance Basanti dance" , Gabar cried hysterically, holding both her hands in his tight grip.  " Hahahaha ", Gabar's men laughed in chorus. Kaaliya, Gabar's right hand man laughed the loudest. Kaaliya had eaten lot of salt thanks to his master and hence he had to laugh the loudest to prove his loyalty.  Basanti tried to resist, but to no avail. She looks angrily at Gabar. He looked back at her, licking his lips. "Cry as much you want Basanti, but no one is going to come to help you" , Gabar laughed. " GABAAR ....You don't know my Mohan Chetta. He is faster than the wind, stronger than the mountains, more terrorising than Bin Laden himself. He will come and rescue me from your evil clutches you big brute" , Basanti cried. "Mohan Chetta? Who the bloody f**k is that?" "He is my heartthrob, my price charming, the most handsome man in the universe...

How to speak in Telugu

PS: Before I start my new blog, a small token of appreciation for my friend Akhilesh Ladha . He has been very enthusiastic about my previous post "Are we truly IITians" and has been trying to forward this message of resource conservation across as many people as possible. It includes posting the post on our Mtech newsgroup, orkut community and also to his hostel mailing list. Really appreciate your effort my friend. How to speak in Telugu ------------------------- There are lots of side effects of having a guy from a different region, talking a completely strange language, as one's roommate. The main (dis)advantage is that you get to learn (or maybe forced to learn) a whole new language. Well, mine case is no different either. And after around 8 months of sharing the same room with my roomie Sheiku, here I am , equipped with an entirely new language...Telugu. My roomie is from a place called Guntur in Andhra Pradesh. So most of his calls are either from his home town or ...
