AAL IZZ WELL!!!!!!

AAL IZZ WELL .That’s what the people of India love to say these days. This phrase has become the argot of every homo sapien residing in India. Everybody, the students in special, want to be an IDIOT and if at all there is a discrepancy, a failure somewhere, then there is surely a panachea, an elixir to fix them all and that is AAL IZZ WELL

We saw the movie 3 idiots and definitely each one of us wants to be ‘Ranchhod Das Shyamaldas Janchad’. But did anyone pay heed to a confession or statement alleged by Sharman Joshi alias Raju……’including the end semester exams we have 42 tests in an year’. That simply means on an average basis 3.5 tests per month which also includes the paramount end semester exams. Who on earth will study for these exams and tests which knock our doors every 10 to 15 days like a fortnight tabloid???? Everyone here cannot be like Rancho, unscrewing the nuts for the whole session and then sitting in the first row, just net to the Dean and posing for a photograph…

As an engineering student, I know what actually engineering courses are…. A breadth taking course. If we really start going to the depth and researching the knowhow of everything, then by the time we actually understand the primary windings of the transformer, there is a ghost or apparition may be a test or exam, waiting eagerly at its verge to assault us. So where do we get time now???? Sure much though every one of us have a passion which we want to develop into our professions. In my college if we consider the students of just one year, then out of the 600 people enrolled as engineering students, not all of them would have actually thought of pursuing it. But we were made to endure it. BROOK BY CHOICE.

From my early classes only, words seemed to fascinate me more than equations but when it was my time to choose my subject… they were the equations that took the show as opposed to the words. In my state there was just one school that offered ‘Arts’ faculty. And its annual fees was around 1-2 lakh Rs. MY GOD….. it counts to half the annual total income of my Mumy and Papa. So what was I supposed to do? Be a maverick and force my parents to admit me there? OR endure it. I don’t know about the readers but I chose the second option. And that is what I call BROOK BY CHOICE. Where did I get a chance to abdicate the herd instinct of being one of the thousands of engineers graduated annually?????? After three years of my college studies I was actually loving it though I still know that I can pen down some event more articulately and efficaciously than working with generators motors and transformers.

‘Rome was not built in a day’. But definitely it was a single day it was started building. So prior to changing our thoughts, our outlook and our cerebration towards our lives….this system needs a change. There are many flaws in the system which are to be filled before we search them in ourselves. I don’t know who that Godly figure would be who thinks atleast of building Rome and takes his first step towards it. But sure though it won’t be me. Not atleast till next one and a half year. Because, though it’s a bitter thing but is a truth….” Life is a race… If we do not run fast we will be like broken Andaas”. For the transformations of someone from an Imperial College of Engineering student to Funsukh Wangdu, we need some latitudes that will make us unfetter or emancipate us from the chains of some creepy things like CGPA, CPI, SPI etc etc. Engineering is not a cakewalk for heaven’s sake!!!!!!!! So for me and lets generalize it for every student AAL IZZ CERTAINLY NOT WELL.
