Typical Day In An Engineer's life!
What a typical day yesterday was in an engineer’s life, or to say so to be an engineer(let me add…..hopefully!!!)

You slug it out before your exam-->Get up early-->Then slug it out at the exam centre for an hour-->Then join your mates for a game of Cricket under hot sun for 3 hrs. -->Forget that your wallet and mobile is in your friend’s bag, who leaves without informing you! à-->You are left at the mercy of your other friends to ship you back home! --> You reach home and your parents go ballistic on you for coming late without informing them-->You tell them the whole RAAM-KAHAANI! --> Eat dinner go to bed sleep as if you have never slept before and get up at 11 in the morning next day to just write a blog about it!

Have A gr8 Day!

The DUDE

-----------------Jan 1, 08'-----------------

It’s the first day of New Year and I am awake early, yes didn’t really party much the previous day, explanation: didn’t have time to!!!
I had an exam of communication circuits in the coming week!
The realization dawned upon me that how big a dampener this exam was on my life, especially as the memories of my previous year celebrations floated by!!!
So I was doing everything but studying, then came my feather friend ‘dude’(flying by).
ENTERS MOM…

MOM: Whom are you staring at outside? Concentrate on your books!(with a stern face)

I have always believed during exam time we get to see a completely new side of our parents!

ME: ehh..nothing.

MOM: No I know, you were looking outside the window.

ME: Well I was looking at DUDE!

MOM: Whattt!?!

Me: Yea the pigeon! I have named it ‘Dude’. With a mischievous smile on my face.

MOM: ok (Leaves with a raised brow as if to say, ‘kuch nahi ho sakta iska’!)


My first rendezvous with Dude happened somewhere in December last year. This was when my final exams had just started and I was frantically trying to finish my last minute preparations. When dude flies in and decides to make those strange pigeon like sounds right outside my window! I realized his real intentions when he made the area outside my bedroom his relieving destination! Forcing me to resort to threatening tactics!
Anyway he did not budge after making a short flight to some other destination he came back and I relented; now he’s used to me and I am to him.

-----------------------------------------------Jan 20, 08’--------------------------------------

Today Dude was not alone, Dudette flew home with him!!!
Now dude has got a family other than shitting, he has other business to do(which I can’t mention here!)

-----------------------------------------------4 days back--------------------------------------

Bruno (my sis’s pet dog) came home and he developed some kind of fun for himself by barking at dude and dudette and chasing them away! At least that kept the area outside my bedroom clean for few days..;-)

Well the point is, we guys who are busy with our respective lives should learn to live free, free like the birds. Throw all the tension in that dust-bin!
A good friend of mine--> Reshu keeps on telling me that she likes living life KING SIZE and to the moment!! And I totally agree with it!!! Way to go reshu!
Tc guys…

AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!!

How many times have you come across situations where you held up your hands as if surrendering yourself to fate of unkown and announcing, ‘nothing can be done about this’!!!
Especially we engineers face this situation while setting up an experiment (electronic) and realize that output is not as we desired it to be, coz the fault could be anywhere in the whole circuit ranging from the power supply to the basic faulty resistor!
I am sure you must have also come across situations like these..lets try and list them out…

1. Since I just experienced keeping a pet in my home for few days, I can relate to the first one…
Your dog decides to piss on your bed and, AND YOU CAN’T DO ANYHTING ABOUT IT!


2. You are walking on a road all dressed up going on a date and the pigeon sitting on the
tree decided to make you body it’s shitting destination…, AND YOU CAN’T DO ANYTHING
ABOUT IT!!!

3. When your chick decides to dump you, AND YOU CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOU IT!!!

4. You are in a debate and there is a beautiful girl in opposite team, though you want to screw
her case you can’t, AND YOU CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!!

5. You fall ill a day before your exam, AND --- ---- -- -------- ----- --!!!
6. Hayden calls bhajji 'a little obnoxious weed', AND --- ---- -- -------- ----- --!!( oye maa kii!)
Now lets see if you have solutions to these ‘problems’, or there are any further things that you would like to add to the list. Since I have written this from a guy’s point of view lets hear it from the ladies as well!

Om Jai JAGDISH!!!
Hmm so finally a piece after a long time!
I just came back from jammu after attending my cousin bro’s marriage and some ceremony of my own.
Was wondering in the aircraft (on my way back) on various experiences or topics that I could use to update my blog. Ohh of course how could I miss it, I can write about Jagdish!
Now if you are wondering who is this guy whose name symbolizes showing direction to the world…well he is just a helper, a small towny but he managed to impress me enough, that I am writing a piece about him!

To give his background he is basically something like a peon working in a college of my Aunt. Who readily offered his services for my bro’s wedding.
He always carried this smile on his face which was accentuated by his burly moustache!
And he always carried two lines on his forehead which would transform into set of four when he would be surprised with a question! He has a thin frame but surprised me with his lifting prowess when he lifted two full cylinders, one in each hand. I have always believed that fashion in Jammu comes before any city in India. Especially the conductors in the local buses are pretty fashion conscious and one should see the range of winter-wear. That would put a big city guy like me to shame! Well Jagdish was no different, he was fashionable yet simple.

What moved me completely was his dedication in any work he did.
Whether it was lifting cylinders or cleaning an area, all you have to do is just ask him to do it. He has an amazing memory power, and ability to remember minute details plus his reasoning ability is pretty mind-blowing! At times he came up with solutions to tasks which we bunch of literate individuals couldn’t crack!

You should hear his reply when a question is put forward to him.

Me: Will this be done by evening?

Jagdish: AAAOOHH!! :-D

Well that simply means ‘yes’.
At the end of marriage he managed to pick up few kashmiri lines, and I would joke with him about it because of his funny accent. I believe an semi-literate guy like him could teach us few straight forward things about life.
And in the true sense he is a good ambassador of his ‘name’!
I doubt he would ever read my blog or this article on him, not just coz he is semi-literate but probably he would never get access to the internet!

I wish him good-luck and success in whatever he does!
Adios!
