Education in 2008.
My Elements of Information Technology (EIT) class ended around an hour ago. I’ve been studying this subject for four months now and I am yet to find a trace of IT. All I’ve wasted my precious time all these months is on number systems (binary, decimal, octal & hexadecimal), generations of computers (the teacher accepts it is of no use, but still thinks it is important for the exams. Well, if that is the case, then I guess even TinTin comics are better off than the question papers). I also studied, although without any concentration or interest whatsoever, the block diagram of a CPU which my teacher thinks is very much needed.
The teacher has completely no idea of what education is all about. For her teaching the subject is all about decorated answer sheets with neat pencil-made margins (she thinks we should still draw a margin allthough our answer sheets already have one). She still cares about how bad our handwriting is and how badly we scribble on our answer sheets.

Is it a post ?
Finally, after more than 3 months, I post something on here. This is a fresh wordpress installation just like my completely changed life here in SIU, Pune. The old blog had posts covering technology, politics etc. and was filled to the brim with spam comments.
This new blog will be purely about me. Period.

And it’ll be updated more frequently :-p
