memorable incidents at somaiya

Somaiya classes......oops!..somaiya engineering academy....
since the day our CET got over,people stared councelling me about engineering field
(colleges,companies,subjects,classes....etc)And as a natural tendency..i asked seniors about which are the most difficult
subjects,which classes should i prefer...etc.And 100% people told me that app mech is going to be really tough,u will need to study
hard,right from the first day!And as others,i was also scared of this subject...but the only thing(relief) was the
subject was going to be there in 2nd sem....So obviously 1st sem was going to be
easier(didnt work in my case...thts a different thing!)some people told me to start app mech during vacations only..but obviously i didnt ;)And 2nd sem started.We had already taken admission to Somaiya Engineering Academy..First day.....somaiya sir (uncle...according to sneha)...seemed to be pretty srict..bt used to teach
very well...
And then...days passed....My impression was pretty good..he used to make me stand (for good reason) asked
questions....And i could answer them sometimes....but,the things are never so easy,straight!
One day..he was teaching virtual work method for beams....I and Sneha were sitting together...and we were talking..sir caught us...asked me,"yes,do u have any doubt?"I said,"No,sir.""ok",He said.and as he was about to turn bact towards the board, Sneha said,"sir,we were discussing how the diagram would be!"He turned back to us again in anger...next few lines..his own words..."u were discussing the diagram in air?? how can it be possible??this is all because of JVK and graphics!!!!u do such things..imagining in air.in graphics only..dont imagine...take a pen and a paper and just draw it!!!if i start doing such things,will u ppl understand a single word??(now pointing towards me)..tell me..is
teaching that easy??u come here...stand at my place..and try to teach..lets c how many ppl
understand a word!!!"
aur ye silsila chalta hi raha...i was so scared that i didnt go 4 the class 4 two weeks atleast!
when i went to class after a long break...whatever he was teaching,was going tangentially..then i asked madhura,who was sitting wid me.."what is law of string?" She was explaining me...sir caught me again (wat a luck!) bt this time,he shouted at madhura.."it is good that u r explaining her..bt u shouldnt in the class!let me do my job sincerely! these ppl (I!) dont want to attend the lectures,they just want to take part in gathering.....regatta,right?these ppl are not supposed to be here....tell them to join film industry...they need these ppl..go there and entertain others..."

again one week bunk!

then he only asked madhura about me...next day i attended the class...i dont know what he might have thought..coz he never
shouted at me after tht!!!and on the last day....after the class was over..he called me...and said..."when is your exam??...i know u will be getting good marks...u are scholar...u missed so
many lectures these days! why did u bunk the class?take down all the notes,ok?i know u will do that..u r very intelligent....bt u shouldnt have bunked the class.."that day i felt like..this is what i wanted...if u didnt have shouted at me...i couldnt
have bunked a single lecture!!!"
