M.Sc[integrated]…

I am a proud student of the first batch of M.Sc[int] in Anna University. I joined it against the will of many of my relatives, since they wanted me to become an “engineer”. But my family helped supported my decision and i am glad that i made the right decision for it was five years unlimited fun and a good job at the end of it. 

I still remember the day of counselling when on of the parents asked the director (of the maths department) that can we call this course a MS or anything else :-), people were only looking at the name and they don't care what the content was!. After a briefing they asked only the students to enter the next room, i saw one of the parents to entering and we were making mockery about that person, only to find out that he too is a student.

Mahesh(aka MAC) is the first guy i meet on the first day and while filling some form i noticed that he filled in as “Jat” and i corrected him saying that it’s “Jain” only to find out that there is a caste called JAT! anyways, from that day onwards we became good friends.

I don't think i can write year wise, for i need at least couple of months to finish this one entry! Some of the things i miss,

  • Subu’s running program
  • learning to use internet
  • spending most of the time in the hostel and watching movies, playing cards, carom, and mortor(its a strategy game, i think i need to advocate the same in IIM :D )
  • my first C program
  • learning to play basket ball, just because some girls were playing :P
  • J3, G12, F5… wat not!
  • ECR road
  • Mathrix
  • computer lab
  • ...
