WebTech fundas

Person designing websites for others for last 5 years has to learn a 2 page note on HTML and reproduce it in examination paper still to see someone else topping the class who probably has not written a single HTML document.

That is the irony of this Subject Web Technologies. The most interesting subject thought in the worst possible way. I am self praising by saying that I don't need lectures in this subject but it is a fact. I could very easily figure out that the lecturer had hardly any knowledge of this subject and was just passing the contents of her textbook to the notebooks of the students without passing through the heads of either.

There was only one thing that I usually do in class if such a situation occurs. I sleep. That is something I enjoy doing while sitting on the first bench. Write from sem 2 I am doing that only difference is that in sem 2 I use to try to stay awake now I don't because I know it is of no use. I never understand what exactly is going on in the class. Not just that I am very proud that I sleep in class. It gives me great pleasure when other nerds (I mean to say other students, I am not a nerd) look at me in a disgusting way. They just try to say "sleeping in class? That's bad. How are you going to learn this topic?" Not just that I encourage others to follow me as well. Now that's art not anyone can master it.

Our WebTch lecturer is a unique mixture. of proud woman and light head. She just pretends to know everything and never admits her mistakes which she comet's regularly.

I was very nicely sleeping on the desk and she said " akshar please leave. You sit on the first bench and sleep? So reticules." Now that was not the first time I was caught but punished.
Sometimes you wish dinosaurs weren't extinct and could be whistled to call em gallop you down. In this case I wanted the dinosaur to eat her into pieces and save me from the comments of my dear friends. I don't need enemies my friends are enough for me.

The whole class was just laughing at me and my foolishness. The nerds Like sudip was heard saying "finally he learnt a lesson". I thought I am not a loser man. I just took my bag and left the classroom and waited out for the class to get over and imagining the humiliation I was going to suffer from Suhas and other dear friends.

Not to my surprised a few other students followed me for more or less the same reason. When the class got over I entered with the expression of a worrier who has just won a big battle. Some congratulated me for my achievement some showed surprise over my courage but everyone wanted to know what happens in the next class.

The next class the mam asked " So Akshar I hope you are not going to sleep again in the class?"

-"I ll try mam." That was shocking reply to a lady who was used to hear yes maam or no mam with nidding heads.

"Sorry! what did you say" she asked

I knew my limits and also knew that she had 5 valuable attendance marks in her hand so I changed my stance and said
"No mam. The mistake wont be repeated"
"Next time I feel sleepy I myself will leave the clas"- This sentaince of course I said in my mind.
