Students’ speak

My first year of college was certainly

an experience.

I use the word experience in the way

that Randy Paush said in his a last

lecture “Experience is what you get

when you didn’t get what you wanted.”

My first year as a fresher in

college was a whole bunch of getting

things which were really more than what I expected. It was

filled with anticipations, anxieties and so many wonderful

discoveries. My initial days probably got imbibed in me to

be self dependent and grow a sense of responsibility on our

own. The motivation which I gained from my professors and

lecturers to get going with the flow was the best real time

experience. I sincerely loved their effort to make us love the

work we do. The infrastructure of my college so beautifully

structured and it provides us all the accessories we need to

sharpen our skills. Starting from Best academic standards

to the efficient and fluent lecturers. From well versed

departments to the well equipped labs and many more

facilities to learn like enormous library, information centre,

innovation lab, incubation centre and even a good sports

and games facilities.

Those extracurricular activities apart from the

regular interesting classes popped in even semester were

like a ‘bumper’ of an adventure camp thus, cheering up

everyone’s mood. The events like Ganitodeepini, The

Invictus, newly born Bhouta-Rasangana were so much fun

to attend and equally informative and enjoyable. Its then I

realized I had to learn a lot despite of what I had already

learnt. I am sure this continuous and quick journey which

started from classroom C-107 will one day help me in my

search of another one – A Rewarding Career.

So, even though my first year was of 8 months of

working days, it was an experience worth experiencing and

the one I wouldn’t trade .In addition to the learning process

and doing practical skills, being in college has also taught

me a lot about friendship, team work, sincerity, humanity,

hard working and to get going with my field of choice. Thus

to put everything in a nutshell it was a very enjoyable

journey for me and a wonderful experience. “It is an

experience for me to learn and grow from.” Because it is

just the beginning…..
