Its been a long time since I wrote an article. This is an article regarding my class (TH4) and my class mates. I have started to think a lot and I am getting a flow but I dont have enough time to put it in words. I am neither a good thinker nor a good writer, but couldnt resist writing about my class. All of the trainees would have had a great experience during training, we had all sorts of fun in class, but I ll write about some different people we have met.
- Rajiv Bammi - The first name that pops up in your mind when you think about TH4 (for that matter when you think about Nalanda) is this guy. It is difficult to make people laugh, but for him it seems to be a 5 second job and he is completely at ease at it, without him the class would have been a dull affair. There are a lot of things to tell about him, but the most important thing about him is his singing capabilities. He is very obssessed with singing , listening to Jal songs and playing his Guitar. I admire people who can sing or play the guitar and he does both the things with ease. I hope one day he becomes a great singer but he has a lot to do before that (i.e. if he chooses to be a singer). In a single day (On friday bash) he had so many female fans flocking around him and he is really proud of it.
- Manoj Kumar - What can i say about this guy, one of the best guys in programming I have ever seen ( next to Gnanesh) , you give him a problem and he starts to write a C code for that problem. He is a guy who is obssessed with emacs when there is a simple vi editor for Unix. I think he started his coding for his team even before the design phase!!!!! he contined until the SI phase. His main forte is programming, I am sure that almost all the class mates were impressed with his programming skills and he is really a sweet guy to be with and he is child at heart and he easily moves with others. I guess one day his body viens will be carrying coffee rather than blood, he drinks so much coffee and I mean it.
- Ashwani Dogra - I feel this guy has the best knowledge in class when it comes to programming and as well as technical knowledge, but he doesnt show off like some people . one of the calmest people in the class. he reminds me of Abhishek (my B.E. class mate) who also had the same skills as Ash. He is known as Ash by everyone in class. I cant even imagine the amount of knowledge this guy has (Guess what he has his own Linux Distribution!!!!) and he has worked in almost all the linux distribution. I think he is fan of Herman Hess because he has read a lot of his books .Technically I would say the best guy in the class as for as I know.
- Mahesh N - I feel that this guy would have had the best moment in nalanda, I have never seen him work , probably I saw him creating Inspection logs once and thats it, he stays after 5:30 pm just to play games , cant even imagine it.
- Pratik Chaudhuri - One of my project mate and probably the laziest guy I have ever seen. I thought that I am the laziest person in the world and I stuck to that until I saw Pratik, Its really hard get some work out of him but really a nice guy to be with, every batch have someone like him to have some comical element. he sometimes take responsibility and screws the whole job, he made most of our PPT (I am really thankful for that) , but there were lots of mistakes in the data provided and thank god we didnt get screwed.
- Shashank Mittal - The concept guy of our class ( I am saying this after seeing one of his Testimonial in orkut and the way he asks questions in class). Coming from a electrical background I think he would have had a lot of problem, but he overcome those problems with ease, he is a guy who asks a lots of question. I admire him for one other purpose and that is his ability to sit near Rajiv Bammi every day, I can tell you it is difficult to sit near Rajiv because he makes fun of people every 2 minutes and once I was caught between him and the Lecturer and it was very difficult for me to get out of it. Another friendly guy to be with and i have never seen him angry always has a smile like Rajiv.
- Sachin Verma - He was the leader of our class during our Friday bash, he took care of everything for that. he organized the whole class, he controlled Rajiv and finally made those decision about the dress code and other things amid strong protest from Rajiv. He has the characteristics of becoming a great leader one day. He is another guy who is good at programming and he managed his project group well frequently stopping Purnima and Rajiv from having a bloody battle over the project.
