My first ever Demo..

Hi friends,

This time Im going to present the things happened to me during my first ever demo.. That was held just today evening!

Actually in NCST, one of our popular faculty Sachin Sir asked us (just for the sake of our personality developent) for volunteering to conduct an industrial visit in our campus. At first, I was hesitating in giving my name cause I was thinking it would be different from Presentations in front of known faces since we have to put the things across the people we never ever even know.. But later I realised that surely it's going to help me for future when I'll be presenting some thing as a software Engineer in front of our clients or seniors so rather that thinking for doing some extra efforts then for that, it'd be better if I use the arrived opportunity and resources available just now...

Anyways I accepted the offer and late night we(all the brave volunteers) were called in for the preparatory-session by Sachin Sir for the same visit. He gave so many tips for the better demo and suggested us to not to fear, in case of any mistake done by us he'd be there for handelling that. Afterwards we decided our roles which we have to play at the time of real demo.

We were ready with our decided howework done before 3 pm which was the scheduled arrival of the "Mother teresa college" from Koadikanal with 46 PG students and 4 members of staff. As soon as the college arrived we had started our process in our decided manner. Soon our nervousness turned into comfortable attitude, we were easily taking their queries and providing them a suitable solution! It took 30-40 minutes in the whole process.

I was thinking the right step, I took at the right time because it was quite relaxing that my fear of giving the demo has gone far far away from me forever, thanks to Sir~ And Im openly requesting you, my friends that you should also take such initiatives in future, there are going to be many such visits which will enhance our communication skills, which ofcourse wil be going to serve its purpose definately in our career sometimes...

Last lecture of TCOM..

Hi friends,

As it seems by its title, this blog is dedicated to the last lecture of the Technical Communication module of the FPGDST course.

It was 11 oct '07. Sawani ma'm was going to take the lecture as usual. Somewhere in everyone's mind, this was going on that we were going to free from this module anyways. Some were happy for the completion of a module but some were upset as now onwards we'd not be able to be in regular touch and care of Sawani ma'm..( But later on, ma'm made it clear to all that she is not going to leave us, whoever wants support is just needed to call her...)

In fact the lecture was quite fruitful as Ma'm discussed over the ways we're supposed to give our interviews for the positive results, whether it's a technical one or a HR one. Definately some golden rules in the form of DOs N DONTs came out of the discussion after several examplifications. Some of them as follows:-
  • First of all, believe in hard work but let the result be decided by destiny. Dont be depress for the negative outcomes, as "SUCCESS HAS NO ENDING BUT FAILURE HAS NO FINAL.."
  • Dont be nervous before appearing for an interview, but it's obvious to be therefore for the removal of it (which is ultimately required) start thinking about the fields you are good at so that you can direct your interview in the orientation you want.
  • You'd have the clear cut idea about the job you are applying for.

Some of the things which is peeped into you while interviews are:-

  • Attitude - the way you think/react/present
  • Aptitude - the way to analyse the possible solution
  • Confidence - which comes after a lot practice and knowledge of the domain
  • Technical skills - basically stress upon it then focus to improve upon your communication skills as both are required equally
  • Respect for the chance - respect each and every oppotunity as there is no such a small or big opportunity

I hope, I did my job to try to write those rules so that others can take it as a "useful blog" for gaining the benefits. I wish that Ma'm would correct my mistakes , if there any..


Thank you and best of luck for your interview!

1st journey, close to an end..

Hi friends,

Again a blog related to NCST as Im unable to stop myself to write for a institute cum MyNewHome.. When you spend maximum hours in a day while living at a single place, it tends to look like your home. A home away from home!

Our first module is going to end this week on 18th oct, it started on 6th aug'07. It was just a span of 2 1/2 months but whoever went through this course, is the only person knowing the difference between that person existing before 6th aug and the same person becomes by now!

There seems a lot of distance(in terms of knowledge and practicality) travelled so far within this short period of time. You wont believe it I m telling you there is the solely responsible thing which is none other than the pattern of this course who changes the way we see the World..
Only three modules were there in this very first term ie OPAD, DSAL & TCOM. We have come a lot ahead to solve the problems by computer using JAVA, we are now able to visualise the problems and applications related to DSAL(which used to seem like impossible task earlier) and ofcourse now we also more comfortable in expressing ourselves.

There we faced PARIKSHAK in that time, which totally changes the manner we try to solve the problem. We used to see the limited scope of a problem but now we think that we can see the real size of the existing problem by exploring its each n every possible dimension. We went through the process of several tests some were like winning but some also brought distress. But here the distress came with a learnable outcome!

But no surprise a hell lot more to travel. There are four terms overall in this course that means 3 more to go. The level of difficulty is no way goin to be easy whereas it going to increase EXPONENTIALLY...Anyways now we are NCSTians(supercomputing people, ready to face the challenges ) so we'll be back with lot more enthusiasm to face the battle which is going to be more terrible or say DO n DIE like and we have to do it..

So Best of luck friends!

Bachpan ke din..

Hi friends,

Here the topic I choose for this week is :: KIDS.. Such a topic on which anyone hardly can express as much as he can wish to do!

Actually being a kid is the phase, faced by everyone existing in the world.. Almost everyone remembers the tasks he did in his childhood like the games in which the most of the time used to pass, getting involved in masti all the time and so on!

In my views, the best ever time in life! You are free to do whatever you want to do even in front of everyone or behind the curtains because no one has the dare to stop you; actaully stoppers or hurdles are everywhere and everytime but the thing is that at that time and age we are not a bit concerned for that silly happenings. Hav'nt you spent such kind of childhood? if yes, you are lucky because in this uncertain life, you've atleast enjoyed that independence in which you have to take care of none...Else, what do I say?

You know that a kid is doing the things in a wrong manner which ultimately making him forced to doing that thing again and again but you love to see them learning by themselves and during that span of time you feel so overwhelmed that this is same thing someone did observe when you were in your childhood!

It's not only a matter of just the learning, enjoyment and the independence of that kid but we know that it gives the more enjoyment to his/her parents or grandparents! Only a parents knows the real means to be a parent, and then think how much do they feel delighted when their child doing such kiddish tasks by which none can stopped themselves to get attracted.. Moreover the grandparents becomes the kids while playing with their grandchildren just to enjoy the life again in that way.

Once a person grown up well(the things happened before to be a parent even), he then starts seeing himself in the kids surroundings as it's a fact that "once a time went away, won't be back to you again..and you've no other options left rather than doing this above mentioned kind of activities.."

Jeena isi ka naam hai...

Hi friends..

This time, I m trying to put forward a quite serious subject in front of you people. That is something what we feel so frequently like we breathe.. When we suddenly encounter a little trickier situation, we often shoot few particular words so easily like "WHY DOES IT HAPPEN TO ME ONLY?" Isn't it??

At that time we thought that only we are the enemy of great almighty that's why we are suffering. Our minds tend to think that God is happy to all other persons except than us, literally we dont even think that we are blaming upon our Creator for being biased with us.. But before thinking like this, do you think about other people who are also suffering to the extent even more than yours? If not, then start doing this exercise from now onwards, believe me this will help you to come out of your problematic situation!

Actually this is something I realized just few days before. Some little problems regarding domains were making me panic, I mean that time I was blaming upon the God, fate, destiny or luck whatever was coming into my mind. After showing lots of patience; one of my closest friend then opened her mouth and gave me thousands of examples in front of mine and asked me to justify "WHOSE PAIN IS MORE?" That instant of time I was answerless. But it didn't changed my attitude(as per human nature!), some day the same reactions came out of me in some other context, that time another friend was with me and he did the same as the previous one had done. In fact he told me a little part of his life that was full of struggle even I read things like that in books only, seriously sounded like story of a HERO who got success after fighting against every odd.. After listening him, I thouht, where did my pain rank if I prepared a list of such pains..

I realized the best remedy to get rid of such thinking is to think about others' greives and really it works.. You'll feel that your living after including that pain is still better than that of lots of people.

See, what happens generally that we lost in so much of anxiety if one thing goes against our wish, we forget that still how much we have is something which is wanted by others and can be a huge matter of happiness if they get a little part of it!

I m just trying to say that have patience and satisfaction in your world, dont think that I m asking you to leave the ambitious attitude, no.. Go with your ambitions, work for acquiring those till you get success but BE HAPPY IN EVERY SITUATION without being bothered about the outcomes of your efforts. APPLY YOUR BEST, ONE DAY SURELY YOU"LL GET WHAT YOU THOUGHT TO GET... Yes, this is the best way to live the life, celebrate the good events and face the bad events with pateince-"JEENA ISI KA NAAM HAI.."

Uff ye Ashaayein...

Hi again,

One more deadly serious topic: EXPECTATIONS..In our world, there exist lots of types of expectations such as:

expectations of parents from child and vice-versa,
expectations of teachers from students,
expectations of friends/lover from eachothers,
expectations of employers from employees and vice-versa,
expectations of OURS FROM US or from ALMIGHTY

and so on...

But this is for sure that whatever the type of expectation is, it gives delightment when gets completed and similarly hurts a lot when it breaks..for example When we are watching say a Cricket-match of our country with some other team, we celebrates if we win otherwise it reduces our efficiency the whole day long as we didn't expect such result. It's not like that they were not keen to play and win but actually it puts them into pressure that so many people were expecting them to win.. Similarly a child couldn't perform his best in exams as their parents pressurized him to perform the best.

We just think of ourselves as it hurts a lot if an expectation couldn't be completed but do you imagine the condition of the person whom you expected, this event in fact demoralized him so much that for the next time he couldn't judge him the right person for the job!

It's a fact that people can't perform their best in such situations when they know about the expectations other people do have from them..it simply lessens the amount of natural way of performance. It's actually not bad to expect but that much of expectations serve what usage, which ultimately leading to sufferings? The best way is NOT TO EXPECT ANYTHING FROM ANYONE, JUST DO YOUR WORK & LET THEM OTHERS WORK THROUGH RIGHT PATH WITHOUT EVEN THINKING OF THE RESULT, if you'd have been invested the full efforts, no one can stop you to get the desired output!

It will give you more pleasure if you get something as a surprise that you weren't expecting more than you get something that you were already expecting.. Simply apply this funda to real life just for the sake of happy living without hurts..

Regionalism in our country..

A serious problem to put across you people: Regionalism in our country..

It can be understand as a Virus for the betterment of the society. Because anyhow it is applying the barriers for some people who doesn't belong to the particular region. It seems to very awkward but even after that it happens now a days in almost every field in our daily lives, you can easily see more than one examples in fact into daily routine of ours..

Let me start from the Sport category, where the selectors focus on the regional players (from the region they belong) rather than the players who really perform well, which ultimates try to add fuel to fire among youths who then present their aggression somehow...

It happens in politics also. A politician even if he is central minister (actually not even true for all but to a few of them) when once gets the power, does the duty for the region only from where he got selected. Doesn't he has something to do for the welfare of other regions? Actually they think, if they do like this that will keep their people happy for the ease of win the next time election. You are not only representing the state or a district but your duty towards country gets more priority here..if you do like that, does it lead the country to the developement?

In fact, in the educational areas this virus is spreading with a very fast speed. Often a teacher awards a student with more marks or grades who belong to his region which is quite tragically ridiculus that you (even after being a teacher, so great post can be thought of as a developer of the society) are keeping other students' career on stake just because of this deadly virus named regionalism..

There are so many examples which can surely increase the size of this blog beyond the limit, but here it's enough to get you people know about the serios problem occuring in our society. So not only the knowledge about the problem is rquired but also the solution is required with deep need and it is also clear that not a single step from a single person can behave like a firewall for it, we have to build a MASSIVE BARRIER for such problems so that those problems can't breach our security against such viruses...
