TP in lecture!

OK now, what the crap all this is! This is supposed to be a class and professor is supposedly giving some presentation on "Wireless Networks". He has started from slide 6-25 "Avoiding Collisions", the head and tail of which I am unable to understand. And surprisingly enough, he has now moved on to 6-26 and probably will teach more. He seems to be a in a mood today, unfortunately not of teaching but of running through the slides and somehow very generously of singing a lullaby to the students. 6-27 no and man... he doesn't seem to stop at this too. Can't he understand that after getting all new Wi-Fi 802.11g internet connection in rooms, who the hell gives a damn to the crappy 802.11 frame structure.

This specific class was held after some very common but definitely dramatic sequences of reality. After the 10 minutes long absence of the instructor from the class i.e. we spent 10 whole minutes waiting for him in a dungy classroom in one of the non-lively corners of the department, we finally decided to leave for our respective hangouts (By the way 6-28 now...). We had barely reached the ground floor and Alas! out came a solid apparition from the dreaded alley (the professor's rooms) informing us that - "Don't go dears! Sir aa rahe hain!". :( All this and we were all taken aback by the wave of disappointment. With the dreary and foggy silence of frustration all around us, we walked to the second floor for the room S-308. (Ahh, 6-29 now!) After some good enough efforts and speculations and some knowledge of Combinatorics we adjusted ourselves in order to help us "jhelofy" the 40 mins long (10 more mins gone) boring session. And... wait for what is coming next... some fellow came and said "Class is supposed to be held in S-310 & not here"! My-my, all this occurs specifically when you are not at all in a mood to attend lectures. With some past 7-8 sleepless nights, one wants to finally give rest to the eyelids but the desire is fulfilled occasionally only.

By now, its is 12:45 pm now... 15 more stupid and eerie minutes and I will be a free bird to spread my wings to their maximum length and fly from the E&C tower rooftop. A daydream fantasy though, but it sure helps me each time I am stuck up somewhere in the non-sensible lectures for another 15 minutes. And yeah, especially when one know that the torture is going to continue for some more insane minutes (6-30 slide with couple of green circles and graphics).

I spent the last 10 minutes about strategically planning the end of this note, while blankly staring at the projector screen. The only conclusion I reached was that probably I have crossed the limits of running out of one's mind coz all I could think of was not an ending to this but somehow a start of another one. The only one thing that has crossed my mind till now & that too several times is the very popular, tangy and unforgettable song "Zabaan pe laga, laga re... Namak ishq ka!" :P So, all the dudes and dudettes out there, don't worry I know I am insane :D.
