There can't be a better subject to describe it. It's been just one day less than two weeks that I left home for four years of study (or further, if I get a job here too or I study further). My mind was full of apprehensions, thoughts and strange feelings since it was the first time I was going to leave my home. But I think it was a bold decision I took since one has to some day enter the "real world".
There are many things here that are really good and some that are really bad, bad dominate over good in quantity .
Things that suck:
The food - The food thing was a little expected since I am a North Indian going to South India. It literally sucks, you have to suck it to get it into you. Sometimes when I eat it, I feel like vomiting, but I can't stay without food. And till the last of this month or possibly further we are supposed to be washing our own plates ourselves, the worst part.
The rooms - The rooms are 10'*10'. And that room is to be shared with someone. The worst part is that for first year you are forced to share your room with someone.
The workspace - The PC's in the workspace suck. Too slow. And you have to share it with 2 other persons. The good part here is that I am the only guy in the whole workspace to have root privileges.
Mornings - :zzz: For the first sem we will have PT at 630 in the morn when a computer programmer just starts having dreams.
Ragging - Ragging here is not as bad as in other Indian instis. But some juniors complained that they were being tortured and so action was taken against seniors and now the seniors have boycotted us.
Incidents - I lost my specs just yesterday. I went to take a bath and forgot to take them back. They were really costly.
Course - 25% of our total courses are supposed to be humanities.
Things that rock:
Weather - The weather is really pleasant here. No need of fans.
Profs - Nearly all the profs are PHd's.
Labs - Labs are great (not workspaces).
Library - :!) What can I say? So many books.
Course - The course curriculum is great. It is one of the few instis of India that allows UG students to pursue research.
Basically, these guys are giving you everything that is necessary to learn but not necessary to live.
