updates part 2

In my last post I have mentioned the word "over heard". Those two words have a very significance in our college. It was started by one of the guys as "Over heard in Mess", shortly OHIM. He initiated this word by stating few things that he heard in the mess with out mentioning their names. It was a big success in the campus and later it is being adopted by so many people in the campus.

For example - this is a post copied from one of my friend's profile in fb

OHIM: A: "The enthu level of the juniors in the coms' selection process seems to be low. They are not working as hard as we did last year"
B: "Oh is it the case!! ... heard that some of the seniors are misguiding them with wrong facts/figures ... that might be a reason"
A: "huhhhh .... who are these people?"
B: " you know who"

This is a very good strategy adopted by few people. But slowly this model is diluted as many people have adopted this OHIM funda and even posted funny sms on fb under OHIM name. People obviously lost the interest and these days I rarely see OHIM messages on fb. Though there could be other reasons.

Coming back to classes, the count of guest lecturers was increasing week by week and hopefully we might not have these many in the coming weeks. In one of the guest lecture, the guest faculty was teaching some concept in excel sheet and that was related to some macros ( a bit advanced for normal excel users). He assumed that we had enough knowledge on excel. When one of the students asked on how to edit the data in a single cell using a shortcut key, the prof was shocked and told it was a very basic level question. Then he started telling us "After hearing such a doubt, I feel that it is too advanced for you guys." I dont know what impression we left there but I understand its not a good one. At sometimes, we may need to contend ourselves in asking few doubts (especially in technical subjects).
