Life cycle of an Engineer: Phase I

I will briefly go through the cycle in the life of a typical Engineering college student (if this below cycle does not apply to you, I am sorry to say this, but you are not a complete Engineer).

Semester Begins: You are highly pumped up after the vacation and are eagerly waiting for classes to begin. You decide that you are going to learn something and prove yourself to your parents(who periodically keep reminding that you are fit for nothing). You get to classes on time, even try to take notes occasionally and hey, you even try to take a shower daily in the hostel. You stick to all the rules, stop passing comments at teachers and fellow students. You control all your instincts with extreme difficulty. This phase lasts for about 48 hours. The lecturers are so skillful that by now, they usually are successful in convincing you that nothing has changed. They give you a mocking smile in class as if to say " Hey Moron, what did you think, just because it is a new semester now I should start teaching you real engineering ".

So, all the adrenalin that had been over pumped for the wrong reasons come back to their normal levels now. But, we should not be blamed for end of phase I, as we did not burst the bubble.
