Get Nostalgic - Engineering Life

Here are some funny (and true) facts about the life of engineering students. You can decide for yourself if this is true or not, if you have led or are leading an engineering college life. This is also a chance for those who 'escaped' from there to get a little nostalgic... read on...

[A] Some Basic definitions.. 
Engineering College : Place where you're punished for getting good HSC marks.
Babe : Girls studying in other colleges...for mech guys, anything female.
Senior : Guy who got ragged as junior and wanna get some payback.
Fresher : Guy who has to ask where the canteen is.
Really Dumb Fresher : Guy who asks a senior where the canteen is.
Really Really Dumb fresher : Guy who follows the senior to the canteen.
Ragging : The unfortunate fate of the previous idiot.
Evasive action : Watch the juniors when any seniors come nearby. (No one runs faster than a fresher. NO ONE.)
Lectures : Waste of time.. physical presence is a must...only meant for sleeping, completing assignments & 

                general everything
Tutions : What you take when you don't waste enough time....
Professor : Person paid to put students to sleep.
Lecturer : Unusual variant of previous individual who comes packaged with his own brand of English ("Now you 

               check me our journal." "You out get from class." "Are you Understand?" "Both of you two come here",
               "Draw a square of any shape") 
Practicals/Lab Work : 60 to 120 minutes in which you watch the girls do your experiment, and usually destroy a
                                 considerable array of lab equipment. 
Hopeless Practical : The practical in which there are no girls in your group (simply look blankly at each other, 
                               fiddle with the equipment, and finally copy the readings. from the girls of course...or from 
                               guyz who get it from gals).

[B]. The Truth about exams.... 

Exams : A 3 hour long exercise to find out how fast you can write.
Timing : when 
ur non engineering GF/BF is free to enjoy while u slog with submissions & exams
Irony : The guy who copied your entire paper passes and you flunk.
Critical Calculation : Summing up the marks you attempted worth in the exam...
Arrear (Supplementary) : Makes you suicidal at first...but later becomes a way of life...
Year Drop : Makes dad homicidal.
Re-valuation: A cruel joke. (results of which come after you give the arrear exam).

[C]. An engineering student's 10 engg commandments of Life 

1. Thou shalt study only during the study leave.
2. Thou shalt treat all marks above 35 as bonus.
3. Thou shalt begin writing thy assignments journals/lab records only on the morning of submission, and only by

    copying.
4. Thou shalt spent as much money as possible and then borrow from girls
5. Thou shalt have at least 70 per cent attendance in the canteen, theaters,clubs,pubs,discos etc etc but not 

    necessarily in class

7. Thou shalt always be an OUTstanding student.
8. Thou shalt give thy attendance without being present.
9. If thou can't convince them, confuse them.
10. Thou shalt start every sentence with a four-lettered word.

Guys: Thou shalt treat and look upon all girls (esp. freshers) as your private property, and propose to as much 

          freshers as you can.
Girls: Thou shalt write all assignments and lab works promptly and timely so that guys can copy them from you.
