Hiatus
My hiatus has been nothing short of a Bollywood movie...To get the whole picture I need atleast another 2-4 blogs...but first things first..
Some things never change....My disappearence from the blg scene for a while speaks volumes about my laziness. But laziness isnt the only trait that has to be blamed at the moment(Atleast thats what i think). Well after my GTA got stolen I was reinstated as a GTA for another class called Theory of Machines. The way I came abt to teaching this course was hilarious. Well so i had this GA position which involved me reapiring computers and helping other profs with things like moving stuff ....setting up labs etc. So me was roaming arnd the engineering building trying to help one of the profs with their stuff wen my prof caught me... He says "So ..Arvind can u teach this course??? " and hands me out the syllabus. I take a look at the syllabus and its Theory of Machines..and I am thinking well its not that tough..I can brush up my memory and can teach the course. By this time I was desperate to do something else other than the GA position that i had. So my prof says "Good take this sylaabus change the TA's name and make 45 - 60 copies and go to class.. You have a class in 15 mins time"... So I have to prepare for a class of 40-50 students abt topics which i hadnt studied for the last 2-4 years.. So i go to class looking like a dumb dude.. hand them out syllabus copies, tell them a few things abt the course and what we were trying to do and something else abt myself and let them go after 15-20 mins of class time ... Most of the students were glad abt the early let off. So after the first day of class it was time for me to prepare for the class. So my routine was to learn everything on the day of the class and teach them .. It was gud fun teaching the class as i got to re-learn the basics of Mechanical Engineering once again. Had loads of fun teaching the class the particular subject...
