So lets be practical and leave all patriotic feelings aside. These are the problems i am facing, i completely had it with this place:
1) No broadband: if you call that measly 2 mbps dataone with montly limit ,broadband! why cant i have a 20 mbps cheap and unlimited connection?
2) i cant get the latest hardware without shelling out truckloads of cash. most of the latest hardware in india has heavy tax on it. people stare at me if i am playing some game on my psp and think that i ran from a mental centre if i have my ep 635 in my ears.
every 4th guy comes and ask "bhaiya yeh konsa chinese set hai?" (refering to the psp) . " bhaiya kya yeh battery se chalta hai?"
3) i went out to buy a good pair of raw slim straight fit jeans.. like hardware, most fashion stores dont have the latest "models" . they all have @%y clothes. i coudnt find a decent jean! the brands available like levis, lee ,wrangler, spykar, etc etc dont cut it for me..
the higher end ones sell stuff at a premium. when i couldnt find a decent jean at these stores , i went to a mall which had a brand named "GAS" . the price of the jean was 6000 rupees but i didnt like it. it was completely overpriced.
why cant we have brands like apc , nudie jeans , acne etc in our god forsaken country?
a) in our colleges why cant they have an updated syllabus. why do they teach us how to program on that boring borland c++ everywhere? why does every single computer in the lab has windows xp and ie 6 on it which almost crashed on me twice in 15 mins , why cant we have linux in our college.why dont they teach us something that actually useful and fun?why dont they have textbooks as informing and fun as computer mags and websites. i study 2nd year engineering in IT . why doesnt any teacher know anything about IT? why do students get 100/100 in a computer subject but dont know how to use a mouse? why do they teach me maths when i dont want!?
---------------------------------------
personal--- things about my college and people around me
4) i am having a hard time in college because all the people in the college seem like noobs. i listen to music like led zepplin , nirvana , plain white Ts , some classic rock oldies , underground hip hop etc, but these people find me strange and tell me to listen to good music like sonu nigam and pritam ( which i know is copied music). i tell them this but they dont care.
5) And most people here wont appriciate movies like "the pianist" or "the beautiful mind" . they will reject a movie without even watching just because its in english. then they will happily watch that movie dubbed in hindi ( which loses all its charm of originality) . or watch bollywood movies which are ripped off from the same movies..
6) people in my college never seem to appriciate the best things in life which i appriciate ,like digit .. none has any reading habit . nothing.
-------------
And the girls .. especially the girls .. none of them know the T of tech even while studying 3rd year computer science.. they have no taste nothing .they all listen to sonu nigam and wear pink tshirts and laugh without a reason. gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!111
is it the world or is it just me?!
lots more but not now.
sorry about the typos.
i cant believe i typed this..
