6 lectures a day, practicals not included.Though we need to attend even those…and one substitute teacher for the free lecture..should it make us happy or irritated..well it depends upon the teacher who is standing outside to engage it. Peeped out through the half opened gate and it made us confused…he was my faculty of data structure(the best faculty in whole cs –it dept,can say the best faculty of my college).He has all qualities in him due to which he can easily become anybody’s idol. The matter of confusion was whether he is going to teach us or he will be sharing some good things with us. He is best when he teaches but he is outstanding when he comes to simple interaction with us (it could be any topic like placements, our day to day routines etc etc..).Well today when he entered he had something different for us..he said we will be playing something today and the smiling faces(like mine :D) turned even more happy , the sad and the neutral faces started smiling(pointing towards a good start).And here it goes..
He said that we all need to take out a small sheet of paper, write your name and your friend’s name and an activity you expect your friend to do. And everyone was soo excited.aaj toe jaise kon si jannat mil gayi thi…:D :D …saara kuch aaj hi nikaal lengey.Everybody wrote something and the chits were collected.I asked my friend what did she gave for me…well it was ok kind of activity..Still as I said her “zaroori thodi na hai ki hmari hi chit nikal jaaye..itne bachey hain” and the same time..sir announced ASMITA WROTE FOR ANJALI…..and…I was ready to speak out all good and bad qualities of her’s in front of whole class (as she told me ).But as I was getting ready the sir announced now the game has some modifications in it.Now what you have written for your friend to do you need to do it of your own..woww…I was happy…now she was going to speak about me…she stood up..started..
She started with good one’s..She said I am extremely(with much stress on the word)..understanding and caring…J J apney hi blog me apni tareef…kab se mann tha mera..bus kar nai paati thi…:D and bad quality she said that I scold her a lot(I started wondering do I ??????) and the other was I study a lot(she said this since she was not getting anything to say…tafree mein she said this)…that’s it and she sat..now the game went and we enjoyed many activities..but the part on which sir was focusing on was that how many of us were able to perform the same activity that we expected from our friend.
As the game was ended he said: don’t expect from others what you yourself can’t do.Big thing!!!!..we do expect(I thought it was ended here) but actually it was started here.Expectations from people,from our work ,from ourselves is the only cause of all problems if we are into it.(the class went too serious after such a great fun as he spoke those words).even I started co- relating it with my own life(I am sure all must have done that).the cause of failure anywhere is only the expectations we have.We expected 29/30 but had only 25..that was the failure and the cause was expectation again.Straight forward he said that don’t expect anything from anyone and that would surely decrease your failures in life.Though you have a expectation but always have a backup with you that in case you are failed atleast you had something on the safer side that would make you stand on the same position as where you were.He must have seen all the faces and said: ‘jyada ho gaya kya.’.All laughed..han jyada ho gya tha…kaafi kuch soch lia utni hi der me…
We never thought in the beginning that his fun activity would lead us to such a great lesson.Many readers of mine would think..ismein naya kya tha..but instead of knowing all this..how many of us has stopped expecting..no one!!!.we still do.Even in my personal and professional life I do have may expectations from myself as well as from others..but the important thing is to maintain a backup!!!...
After watching serious faces(unko hmari umar k bachon k chrey itney gambheer achey nai lagtey) ..he ended the class with the mimicry session of one of my class mate(he do it the best)..and again we laughed like hell(table peet peet key..kar hi itni achi raha tha..:D :D :D)…well enjoyed my last lecture a lot that day which usually becomes untolerable.Learned even more..thanks to him.. J J…
And then all came out with a common words..kya teacher hain yaar!!(ye humlog ka roz ka dialogue rehta h after his class…)..
Keep smiling in any situation (best friend baat bhi band q na kar de..tab bhi……….).. J
acha likh lete ho anjali.. keep going. :)
