A Follow up from the second week in TCS-TVM.. Oct 4, 2004
**************************************************************************************
Well, it's going gr8 after 2nd week, the sad part being we were working on sat till 6...
Small tests, lots of group activities, and time pass form the whole of day everyday. 2 breaks of half hr each plus a rushing 45 min lunch are the only times we people from Aurangabad meet in office. But we do meet almost everyday to have our dinner. The MATC which places us to base stations may be coming on 19th Oct to give its presentation and then we will have our mid semester exams, then posting. We are going to be released on 19th Nov and are expected to report at place of posting on 23rd Nov. So NO Going Home....
Abt people from all the places coming here, well, I am enjoying it completely. I learn bit of Tamil, bit of Bengali and teach them a bit of Marathi. Everyone gets amazed and confused at each others way of speaking. On top of this we have one more common language with us now, French! The French facilitator is very good and I have already learned 4 q's and apt answers! They are going to emphasize on effective communication rather than grammar n language, so it's fun, specially those sounds which we don't have in English.
The style of doing project is very professional. We do the projects in our college in such a crude manner na? Our project has been decided. Not the topic but front end is JSP and HTML. Core java for backend and MySQL as database. Only 5 days for coding and rest is development. Imagine this at college level!
We get fed up of the food in a restaurant every two days. So keep on changing. Actually the food at TCS is good but that's only lunch and seeing it everyday is again boring. We have faculty coming from various base branches that aren't actually good at teaching but their exp with project helps a lot.
Kanyakumari is excellent! The merger of three sees is more of a perception rather than anything real but I had that perception... so that's it. Vivekananda Smarak is also good; have to go by a ferry there. Today we went to Kovalam beach about 15 km from here which was an easy ride by the city bus. Enjoyed in the water for about 2-3 hours and came back. It's a beautiful sea there and you never feel like going away from it. We were just the 6 of us from Aurangabad for today's trip.
Ok, bye now. I am tired after the Kovalam masti and tomorrow its 6 am wake up time again. :-)
