So after a long struggle... I finally completed my Xth with 85 %.
Now the biggest aim was to secure myself a place in either of the reputed colleges in the city.
After consistent long runs from one college to the another , I finally made into a good college , that too not far from my residence.
The first teacher came to our class started teaching biology after a brief introduction about herself. She was in her 40's , long hairs, clear face. She was wearing a crisp Cotton Saree.. To tell the truth, I didn't like the lecture as I experienced that sitting in the college was a different aspect than sitting in school.
The lecture went on and on and on...! ( School lecture duration was 35 min while in college was 55 min ) . Thats it ! It was the first and the last time I ever sat for her lecture... ( Attendance wasn't taken till our batch because students used to prepare of Entrance exams sitting at home)
Sorry to say guys, I still don't remember what she taught or how she taught.
( you cant judge a teacher by her first lecture, can u? )
He was tall , dark in complexion ,neatly combed hairs with his usual white shirt and black pant.( Dont imagine him to be a character in MEN IN BLACK !! ;) )
He taught us maths. I started hating maths for the first time in my life. Yes ! Thats true.
His main drawback was he used to solve the very first sum in the chapter which was like a cake walk and expected us to solve the rest that was supposed to be difficult even for him I suppose.
He never interacted with the students. Just came to the class, did his job of writing numbers in the board and foooooooooo ! He was gone...
Strange teacher ...!
The English madam was short and healthy. She was very very strict. I still remember her insulting my friend for not knowing his mother tongue . She is from South India with a very good blend of English cum South Indian accent...!
She was strict with her attendance which made me sit for her lectures. I really wonder how I sat for that 55 min. Einstein's Theory of Relativity acted perfect for her lecture.
" 55 min was like 5 days ..! "
I still see her few times on the road, I tend to hit the gas rather than having a pit stop.
We friends used to play football in between lectures on the basket ball court of our college. After playing we used to run for the lectures and knock the class door 15min late and still we were taken inside by our Hindi teacher. This guy was very versatile teacher. Thin , wheatish complexion ,very long hairs for a male teacher. He told us all those stories that was out of our syllabus. The stories were practical and political . It was put straight by him and to my surprise his predictions came true. One of that was the logical prediction of Ms. Pratibha Patil becoming the President of India even before she contested elections.. Yes he analysed politically and was true.
Recently heard he was promoted. God Bless him !
Practical and straightforward people excel soon, dont they ?
