continuation to previous post..

Oh!!! I hate this damn machine called computer!!

I am writing in after so long, again because of the same reason.. My computer gives me the hardest time and according to the engineers, its such a nice piece that gives no problems.. huh!!!

well, let me continue from that point where I left it a few days back.. I went out with my friends and we did have a great time.. That lunch was amazing and we had the most amazing time together.. The other outings were good too but this one was the best so far..

The only guilt was leaving behind a friend without company, as the others in the group were absent..[We 4 love the company of each other and the rest of the world doesn't matter much!!]

Day Two of college

19th August 2009,

I went to college with again the same zeal and same intention of attending all the classes.. I love to go to college with an agenda, a plan, as I told you.. So I finally got to live my dream.. The first lecture was of IIFE, what it stands for? I am sorry, even I am not sure and we are opting for some other subject, maybe HR, so I need not know either..[;)]

It was another lazy day, I am not in the habit of being attentive in class, so I was as usual lost in some other important thing.. Moreover he speaks so slowly that he can't hold my mind in class and prevent it from wandering..[:D] Anyways, he somehow became audible for a few seconds, it generally happens when we are asked a question.. So as he progressed towards my desk, I like sitting on the third last desk as the last two desk are under constant vigilance of the teachers.. I know I am quite brooding..[:)] So, the point is I heard his question and I saw my classmates and friends standing there struggling to escape being the next victim of his wrath and stammering while they made some wild guesses!! He asked us the difference between accuracy and precision..

I heard him making fun of us, that we are now in the 7th semester and are not even aware of the difference between the two.. This is what awakens the knowledge geek in me and I just can't take it.. So as I tried to recall my class 11th physics book, he was slowly stirring away from the topic..

My thought process - it was in class 11 physics book in the first chapter on the left hand side page.. Oh my God!! And it clicked me..

As I raised my hand to answer I realised he had already drifted away.. So I almost shouted and asked him if I could attempt the question now.. He was keen to know what I have to say and moved further closer to hear me while I confidently blurted out the answer..

Precision is the nearness of the different values taken using the device to each other and its of no importance whether they are equal to the right value or not, while Accuracy is the exactness of the value the device gives while the various readings taken by the device can vary.. So the device should be both precise and accurate.. Mission accomplished..[:D]

I saved my classmates and friends from the embarrassment and humiliation for the time being while he was contented with my reply and praising me!!

This even helped me, as now he ignores all I am doing in class, studying or not, talking or appear lost, he somehow knows that I know all the answers..[;)]

The first lecture was over and I was basking in the glory of my little lovely brain [I think it is my biggest asset, it just never ever lets me down].. Time for the next lecture, I was all pumped up for the next hustle.. It was DSP, it stands for Digital Signal Processing.. Yeah, I am happy to know that..[;)] So, it was a familiar teacher who once taught us Analog Electronics.. So he knew us a bit and I know I don't have to try and judge him for his brain.. Meanwhile my friend, Mehak started talking to me about my hair [Oh!! she says she loves my hair plus she isn't the only one to say so..[;)]] So as we discussed my hair, the teacher who knows me for being way too talkative, asked us to sit in the corner.. We picked our belongings and dashed for our royal seats, secluded from the class, to be more attentive in class.. So I was left with no choice but to listen carefully as he speaks.. I was attentive, a sign of danger for the teachers, as I'll then point out the slightest mistake they made.. He was a bit unsure of the real numbers and as he was wrong, I pointed out, and ended up discussing real numbers, natural numbers, whole numbers and integers, while my class laughed at the debate I generate and how I sometimes make the teacher feel like he is a bit stupid.. No offences but, we students love to make them fluster as it is a students childhood fantasy to make his teacher a bit nervous while they have been doing this insulting thing for years!!

As the roars of laughter rose the teacher who was so far cool, lost his temper and it all ended with a few punished friends who were marked absent despite being present physically [mentally, I am not sure..;)] and the teacher resolving to confirm things and discuss them in the next lecture.. As he left, I was a bit apologetic to my friends who were marked absent, but they were happy to see the 'Oh! I lost look' on the teachers face..[:D]

As my friends asked for more, two wickets down in two lectures, I think I was going pretty too strong, I resolved to call it for the day.. No more of the proud display of 'Oh! I know it all'.. This is what few of my classmates think about my attitude, but who cares, I am proud of myself and my little processor[THE BRAIN, if you didn't get it] that is faster and more efficient than theirs!!
