Everybody keeps talking about how college is the best part of one's life... I never knew how cool it was till today!!! In fact I had the most amazing time of my life, and even though I might fall asleep anytime on the keyboard... I told myself... I had to put down the whole gamut of emotions I went through today.

Well, you might be wondering why today of all days... what's so special about March 12th?!?! Don't worry people, no more suspense :) it was Waves '09 , the National Level Technical Symposium conducted by the Society of Electrical and Electronics Engineers of the College of Engineering, Guindy ... ( now that was a LONNNNNNNNNG sentence :D )

It's not that this is the first time we've had something like this... but this one was special. :D Started off with me trying to wear a saree and driving Mum up the wall :D Then some last minute rushing around getting all my things together and setting out for the hour long voyage to Guindy :D ( more on my expeditions in another post :D )

Change of scene : Vivekananda Auditorium or as we fondly call it... Vivek Audi :) That was the place of the famed "sorting" as one of my seniors put it. Now let me list out some of the stuff I learnt there:

• Never let juniors rag you :) I know 2 of them who'd be reading this soon :P
• Act mad ... but always ensure the door's closed :)
• Scream all you want ... but check whether the mike's switched off :)
• Go early for food... I've learnt that hunger can be an amazing teacher :)
• Don't try dancing in high heels unless you've done it before... you could end up breaking your shoe's heel or much worse spraining your ankle... I ended up with the broken shoe heel :)
• Always carry spare batteries for your camera.. and do check whether the spares work :D

More thoughts later... :)

Prove or Disprove

As the year rings in, it is also the time when the battle begins as KURUKSHETRA(the annual UNESCO accredited techno management fest of The College of Engineering,Guindy) unleashes its power. This time among loads of exciting events there has been a lotta buzz online as well.PROVE OR DISPROVE that debuts this year is one such online event which gets your better sense to light. Fallacies, science myths, superstitions have long since choked the existence of pure logic and scientific reasoning. With the likes of Aristotle, Plato, Copernicus, Newton, Einstein, Tesla, Faraday and many more having walked on this planet the time has come to erase and rewrite baseless beliefs into facts or simply trash it! To follow the path of these great men and further their unspoken mission, battle it out at www.kurukshetra.org.in (Events-> Trinity->Prove or Disprove)!
Celebrate the spirit of reasoning! :)
