Well, so here it is, a real life conversation, between two IITians (you know, two of those top 50 geeks, muggers), on which courses to take: (uncensored version, except wherever mentioned)
[the square bracket contents are comments, which I am putting in now...]
me: Thr?
Sanyam: ya
me: which courses are you taking?
1:34 AM Sanyam: derivative lene de raha h kya xyz [he is the facad, extremely painful thing, though his job is to advise us, he can stop us from taking a few courses and can allow taking some][name changed for obvious reasons..]
?
hss drop kar sakte h kya if insti elective mein ma ka course le to[hss: humanities and social sciences (they suck!! Big time!!) ; ma: mathematics]

Adsul mein no project no assignment

IWhen clicked this url, I was wondering whose blog is this, but the moment I saw the blog, I knew it was u; for only u r gifted enough to design colour combinations like this [:P]. I still remember the background of ur 1st yr website. A normal person (not u, ofcourse :P) stares it for 5 secs and starts nauseating ..and I do vaguely remember that someone told me that it was a good substitue for 3rd degree torture :P.
