A journey called Engineering

“It is good to have an end to journey; but it is the journey that matters, in the end”-Ursula K. LeGuin an American science fiction writer.

Here we are at the end of our journey called engineering. I am sure all you guys will agree with me that most of us cannot believe it’s been 4 years since we joined this course, four important years of our lives. Important not because we learnt lot of subjects but in our attempt to do so we learnt many more things than what we could have learnt from text books. We made friends who have made our lives beautiful, made foes that made us watch our each step, met lecturers who changed the way we look at life. In short engineering has been a life's experience.

Just remember that first day when we came to this course unaware what awaits us in the four years. We were from different backgrounds/states/even countries. We have just finished those four years which we were so anxious to finish. Its time to remember those days which we will never see again. Running late into class and on the way making up a excuse to tell the lecturer,  running into class to occupy the most happening benches, eating from each others lunch, writing those boring records in the class hours, helping each other out in the labs, teasing each other, sitting in the class praying the watch hands moved faster and sometimes slower, shouting MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMM/ SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRR in the last half an hour of class, after class going out and grabbing some junk food, copying assignments from others (especially akhila), just before internals standing in the queue for photocopying notes, asking lecturers for important questions, last minute studies for internals, praying to god to get least $'s and *'s, telling I don’t know for those viva questions, writing VTU exams, waiting for results, if the results are announced waiting for the VTU server to load the marks when we could feel the earth spinning in our head. We have lived it through. We wantingly or unwantingly have been a part of someone's life. Today all these are just memories which we will cherish throughout our life.

I take this opportunity to thank each and every person who was a part of my engineering life. Who have made me what I am today. I am sorry if I did hurt someone in this journey. I don know when we will meet again but I would like to wish each and every person a very best of luck in their conquests may we all be winners everywhere we go.

This will probably be the last post on 35marks and probably your last visit to this page, we have tried to put up all the happenings in the college, assignments, internals question papers, vlsi diagrams during its functioning. We have had more than 60 followers some public some anonymous and more than 13k hits. I like to thank all the co-authors who along with me made this website what it is today.

The next post will probably be some years from now when we have our reunion.

At last I would like to end this post with the words of Albert Einstein


"Scientists investigate that which already is; Engineers create that which has never been.''

Hope we all can stand up for it.
ALL THE BEST.

  9. Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic however I'd figured I'd ask.
    Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog post or
    vice-versa? My blog covers a lot of the same subjects as
    yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
    If you're interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Awesome blog by the way!

  10. Having read this I believed it was extremely informative.
    I appreciate you taking the time and energy to put this short article together.
    I once again find myself personally spending a significant amount of time both
    reading and posting comments. But so what, it was still worthwhile!

  11. I have been surfing online more than three hours nowadays, yet I by no means
    discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is pretty value sufficient for me.
    In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made just right content material as you did, the net will probably be
    much more helpful than ever before.

  12. What you wrote was very logical. But, what about this? what if you
    added a little content? I mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your website, but what if you added a post title that grabbed people's attention?
    I mean "A journey called Engineering" is kinda boring.

    You should glance at Yahoo's front page and note how they create news titles to get viewers to click. You might add a video or a related pic or two to get readers interested about everything've got to
    say. In my opinion, it could make your posts a little livelier.
