College reopened very well as Scheduled......But there were no afternoon classes. Afternoon classes were suspended for some maintenance works. Not many teachers turned up..We had lot of substitutes handling classes on the first day. Now here, I have something interesting...........There was this staff who hardly noticed any student. He just entered into the classroom , DECLARED that he would be handling that subject...and then He was all stuck with the black board.Hardly did he take notice of the students. He kept talking and wasn't audible at all. Then this guy(Who thinks he is Mr.Smart) of the class who keeps puzzling teachers with his doubts(Some times very silly 1's for which he wud have already known the answer and keep arguing y cant it be THAT!) .This way he thinks he could get his special attention and then would always have the teachers notice him while taking class, on the other hand sometimes bugging all the others sitting with him. I don't complain !. This sir didnot take any notice of him but instead was often looking and talking(teaching) to some other guy whom we all least expected.(Paavam, he missed all fun with his friends that day and had to pretend like a keen listener :)) Romba kastam avanuku!) This made Mr.Smart very mad(Irukkum dhaney........Pazhagi pochu) ........He started interrupting this sir with his doubts and kept saying he wasnt clear(Which is ofcourse true.. none of us hardly heard him and only then is the question of whether we understood or not.NOTE: Am very seriously trying to listen to the lecture..but can hardly take note .My notes were with just some keywords and few preposition,conjunction & verb). Then Mr. Smart could atlast get his attention......... BRAVO!But this sir hardly took notice of the Girls side. Ofcourse some of us were trying to listen while some others took advantage of the situation. There was this wise crack from one of the girls sitting behind me" YAARU PETHA PULLAYO...IPDI THANIYA PESITTU IRUKKU......(AT T LECTR'R)"May be this sir was too shy to or didn't want to see the girls. But after 2 hours of class he did take notice of some of us once in a while, even before you could see he is looking..BAM! he turns back to Mr.Smart.And there was no control over the class after the 1st hr...ofcourse why would they bother when they realize this sir isn't going to bother them having Fun. The problem is even those who are struggling to listen and take NOTE aren't able to. He doesnt seem to bother too. While I Thought if I dont tell this sir Now...he will never bother the presence. My bench mate stopped me and said..plz dont do that. Let it be this way for a little while..things would change. And guess what he is also going to handle one of the LAB sessions for us. He is the INCHARGE.I thought atleast from the LAB incharge we could get some knowledge about the subject. Let's see what is going to happen............. But next week if he is going to make me feel INVISIBLE , am gonna let him know IAM VISIBLE too. :)
Never have I felt INVISIBLE in the class room, but definitely not in the way like Mr.Smart does.
To Senthil natarajan- Dont worry..You dont wanna miss that part of life that you are in now!In future this too would be something u would miss! Like when you grow old with all your grand children pestrng you for chocolates,rides......... and then granne saying NO for all your say! :P Just kidding.Enjoy the present.
