Being an IGIT Mechie

This blog is dedicated to being an IGIT mechie. 4th year now, I am getting nostalgic about my college. So here goes my blog. You realise you are from IGIT & specially from mechanical & automation branch when:-

1. You thought you were very lucky to be a girl, since IGIT was all girls.

2. You counted the number of girls before your rank in the counselling.

3. You were proud of yourself coz u alws thought IGIT was best clg in d university

4. The day you took admission in MAE, people started sayin "Ladkiyan mechanical mein kya karengi" & you already had 100 reasons to support yourself.

5. When you starting telling your college name to anyone "Indira Gandhi.....", without completely people said IGNOU & u wr lyk irrrrr......

6. From day 1 u realised that Mech was the coolest branch.

7. U always waited for a good ragging & hated the same old salwar kameez dress code.

8. You always complained of 1st year teachers being partial towards MAE coz u felt it wasnt ur territory.

9. During the first year you were always eager for going to Mechanical Block, on the other side of the ground.

10. You always planned mass bunks, but were hardly successful once or twice.

11. You always thought people in ece & cse were extremely padhaku.....

12. Every time when Ms Freshers wasnt from MAE u thought that judges were biased.

13. You were very happy to see so many canteens in the campus but then realised none of them was that good & finally landed up on the chole kulche outside.

14. You loved the chilli nutrela of Vita, even tried making them at home, & were extremely diappointed when realised that vita was permenantly shut down.

15. You always thought you will start studying for minors timely, but fianlly eneded up studying just a night before. After the first year you hardly bothered studying for minors.

16. You always thought you will study in clg before d minor but all u did was gossiping & laughing.

17. You were always envious towards y DCE ppl have jst one minor & we had 2.

18. The first place you visited with your friends after admission was Janpath.

19. You were always proud to be in IGIT, coz it was famous as the only all girls engineering college.

20. During the first year you were involved in publicity, creativity, technical & all the teams of xebec, impulse, zenith & were putting posters in various colleges of Delhi, coz u thought it ws good fr ur resume.

21. You were always made to believe by ur seniors that you have to work for xebec coz it ws ur department's fest.

22. You always wondered when will Zenith take place.

23. Half of the Jan- June sem went in some fest or the other.

24. You hardly attended Anugoonj for more then one day after the first year.

25. The toughest subjects you studied were thermal engg, heat transfer & the only wish u had before its paper was of scoring 50 marks.

26. There were atleast 10 rumours each sem regarding results being out & everyone was running towards net lab.

27. You always had a lot of fun on holi in college & thought of making it the best holi ever.

28. You always thought y cant they just let us inside the girls hostel.

29. Whenever anyone said about 75% attaendace, you just laughed & said. yahan to 50 ho jae wohi bahut hai.

30. You had 100000 reasons of y u didnt attend class.

31. You alws enetered the class after the teacher did.

32. 25 Jan, 14 Aug, 1st oct were gazetted holidays for you reason being Metro n buses r not safe these days :D.

33. 90% of the time you went to university canteen was to eat your lunch.

34. You had spent more time on the wall in front of mech deptt than the class.

35. You had pleaded the xerox shop wale uncle to do your xerox first.

36. Surprise tests was nothing more then a joke & assignments were meant to be copied. Practical files were one of the biggest thing in demand a week before the pracs.

37. You always wondered y there was no loo in mech block.

38. After first year, you went to the main building just to give exam or for book bank.

39 Book bank was a place where, you knew, you will hardly be able to find any book but still went there every year.

40. The IGIT admin block was located in another world where you went only to payfees, collect marksheets, or some official work.

41. You never bothered to collect your admit card coz you know they will come & give it to u after uttering few harsh words.

42. You always thought there was nothing more difficult than studying in a girls college.

43. You soon realised that the other coed colleges in campus were of no good & any eyecandy was a topic of discussion.

44. You attended the Anugoonj auditions & cheered for IGIT, but never attended the main event.

45. There were more guys than girls spectating the IGIT freshers.

46. You heard someone or the other playing guitar in the campus,

47. The major hangout zone was McD at KG metro station.

48. You always were proud of MAE department for having the best placements.

49. You always wanted to get placed in some core company.

50. Found the corridors of workshop area best for studying for pracs. You always wondered whether the machine tools kept inside the workshops even worked or not.

51. You hated long queues for fee submission & tried atleast once to get it paid from inside the bank through some source.

52. You had max fights during these four years.

53. You always wished to be in a coed college, reasons are very well known.

54. You attended classes just for attendance. You pleaded to teachers for giving extra attendance.

55. Final year was meant only for placments , entrance exams & for fun.

56. You clicked the maximum photos during the last year.

57. Teacher called your name in the class for laughing or talking & said that you wont get the attendance.

58. Classes were meant for sleeping, solving coaching institutes package, learning Barron words, transferring songs through bluetooth, making sketches or playing games.

59. The day you attended classes seriously you realised that you actually get to understand something.

60. Every year there was a rumour that campus will be shifting next sem but it never actually did.

61. You always left one chapter coz you knew you will have choice in the paper. End sems were alws a nightmare.
