:: XOR == Xcitement of “beep” ::
as me and pradhee walked back from Main gate to OBH after paying a son of a <beep> 40 bucks for cutting our hair like WTF?? at Indra Nagar, on our way via library we saw something which reminded me of one of the two most exciting durations of my stay at IIIT. Yeah, its the “Interaction period” for the ppl of 2nd and 3rd year, its a bit of ragging / a bit of masti for 4th years, its Ragging for my batch and yeah its Hard Core ragging for my senior batch. Can you see the pattern ?? I can.
Hence,
XOR == Xcitement of Ragging
As I said, it was one of the most exciting time for me here, both when I was in first year and was on the Fked up side (it rocks) and in my second year when I was on the other side of the line (and gt fked again. Why ? Grrrr, but thats ok no regrets). Being in a school in North India and knowing abt ragging prepares you for facing the most drastic and threatening time of your life. It gives u stamina to face the worst and intelligence to answer the best. I believe its in the seriousness of the situation that makes it perfect. No doubt we had awesome time during those 3 weeks of interaction with my seniors. The pattern I mentioned above is not the pattern of how much the seniors njoied ragging the juniors, but its the pattern where how productive, interesting, Novel and caring seniors acted. I dont think any of the juniors feel the way we feel about our seniors and what is worse is none of the 3rd years might feel 10% (for some of them its 10% of quality sometimes its 10% of ppl ) of that for their seniors. Dont mind guys but thats true.
Generally ppl when they join the college think that staying out of the eyes of the seniors for first 1 month is the key to success. To be frank let me tell you the case at our college. No body gives a rat’s ass if u dont want to talk to them. Yes thats true, this is no place where ppl want to have that interaction as a “frustration removing toolkit” NO ok may be sometime when they fk up their “Theory of Computation” exams but otherwise forget it. In fact the truth is, that 1 month is the only time when you will be able to talk to 50% of the ppl interested in talking to you becos they will back to their daily schedule once the heat is gone and you mite not be able to get involved with them because hello u dont know them. Again just to mention this is no hard and fast rule and its not like NONE of my juniors or sub-juniors dont have a bond with us its just that the thing is loosing its importance. I still remember Parry Sir, Darbari and Jaganathan (J. LO) were the toppers of their batch at the time when we joined and they were at the 3rd floor without fail. Why ? to chk if the ppl they caught yesterday are done with the programming assignments they gave them… an interesting story here
About the time when I was in the ruling party, hmmm quite interesting, just after a week’s interaction
a gang of 9 ppl were picked including me, Jain and Akansh to represent the most deadly, life-taking, bloooody and dreadful ragging ever done at the college (screw it). I still think that was just a way to end it all, nice work DIS-CO. Nothing ever resumed at the same level as it was and thats that.
ok enuf there is whole lot on this, but got to stop riting and start acting for today’s schedule. To end it, I still rmr wat Darbari sir said when he came to know that we are supposed to appear in front of DIS-CO, he said “We are always ready to stand up for our juniors”.
Ppl l get along with, Below Stats as for Interaction Period, which grew after that too
