PerFect Engineer

Studying at the last moment for midsems this time ,thanx to the placement season , reminded me of an interesting incident told by my friend. There was a presentaion in his college by some successful(!!!) Software Engineer(forgot his name ),an Ex-IITian . He started his speech asking about the definition of an engineer,and how should we be as a prospective engineer in college. Breaking the silence of the PPT hall, A student stood up(very Kapil like) . According to him being a student,we should be obedient , attend all the classes. Study all the subjects with due sincerity before hand and bla..bla..bla.. .Well every thing u can associate with a student like Kapil.After he was done , Engineer said "These are exactly waht u should never do :-P".Every one broke to laughter. Studying at the last moment , handling the pressure of doing assignments(usually just before exams :P) , multitasking actually transforms us into students to engineers . Engineering colleges,apart from studies , also train us to perform for adventitious events.He continued telling his stories of IIT and what all an engineer(esp. computer engineer) has to face in life .There was much more , but the crux of his speech was how we should prepare ourselves ,to excel where u r not prepared.You can do well if you are prepared well for a task . But Life is an Extempore .

Well if we believe in him , DCEites will certainly be the best Engineers .This is what we actually learn in our four years of college ;-) .

The White Tiger - Review

India and China are deemed as the next super power of the world . There is steep growth rate for both the countries,and constructive development everywhere .The book is written in this context and presented as a series of seven letters to Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao. Indian development is quite restricted to some big cities which have struck Gold with MNC's coming there.Most of the other part of India where this urbanization have not reached still lives in their old ways. The author tries to bring about the reality of this "Urbanization", which is plagued with curruption . The book can be devide in two parts the one in which balram halwai is in his village or in Dhanbad . The next can be the one when he comes to Delhi with Ashok .First part shows the atmosphere of the village , poorness, misery , and corruption prevalent there . you feel pity for Balram Halwai his Father and brother Kishan . Author has been able to bring about the contrast b/w rich and poor , and miserie...
