There must be some kind of way out of here
Said the joker to the student
Theres too much confusion
I cant get no relief
Lecturers they drink my blood
HOD men dig my brains
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth
Hey hey
No reason to get excited
The student he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that college is but a joke but uh
But you and I we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hours getting late
Hey
Hey
What is it we can do now
seems to be no way out of here
lets go get the pink slip now uh huh
said the joker to the student
but there seems to be no release
from behind these enemy lines
there seems to be only one way out
but first we need to find the clocktower
Hey
Hey
All along the clocktower
Principal kept the view
While all the freshers came and went
Bare-foot football players too, but huh
Outside in the cold distance
A rabid dog did growl
Two companies were approachin
And the bell began to ring
Hey
Oh
All along the clocktower
See you stare at the clock
Gotta beware gotta beware I will
Yeah
Ooh baby
All along the clocktower
--------
the end.
thank you...thank you!!
jimi hendrix lives on!!
(rolling in his grave, he is)
oh...added a whole paragraph here...i just hope he will forgive me!
luv y'all

All along the clock tower
Every year we see a few changes(for the better) in snist, but essentially the stink remains.
But then this year was different,..now snist boasts of decent computers and overhead projectors in every class.This has something to do with some inspection.For this same reason, the once head of department has been replaced by a bald head of department.All for the better they say.
But not all things change...
This year again the yearly spectacle of 'construction' started which roughly coincides with the fresh influx of prisoners.The bulding being built now, wasnt a part of the visionary's original dream, and the legendary clock tower shown in the video has become a myth.The tower location now resembles the marshes of mordor,.. teaming with org sized mosquitoes.The once upon a time football ground looks like a mortuary and some say even the ants here are more poisonous than a king cobra.However under no circumstance sit anywhere close to this field,...zaphod once had a funny experience with a scorpion here,...and had his ass mummified for a week.Sticking with wildlife, ..now we have a beehive for everyfloor sometimes even two...these bees they say were geniticaly engineered to serve just one purpose - monitor the prisoners.
The other tradition which has survived the test of time ...is the gate pass,...but the horrible twist is that many of the previously secret path ways to freedom have been either blocked or have become inaccessible due to other reasons.
All in all snist didnt change a lot,..its the same boring lectures,the same old landsacpe and the same invisible tower.

We make a difference!!!
Ok..as zaphod said..we all r now part of the dynamic elite employed youth:P
Annnnd..this blog finally made a difference!!! Apparently the college management googled SNIST and came across this blog and when they saw the exclusive tour of SNIST, they decided that they needed to atleast upgrade their PCs.
So..they went ahead..searched their pockets and bought approximately 300 new dualcore machines with LCDs..machines that are faster than my own UBER rig..kudos to SNIST for that.
Now for some pics.

Who's talking about unemployed youth now, huh?
What a day.
day-1 of campus recruitements, and ....well... :)
here is what happened, in brief.
-Hijake, Haze, Beastu and I...
all decided not to join the ever-increasing, ever-more-powerful, Great Indian unemployed youth.
yes, you read it right.
WE GOT JOBS
(whether any of us are ever going to take them up is a completely different matter)
-Hijake broke the sound barrier, in ways noone ever has before or ever will.
-You've heard of doggy style, haven't you?
Hijake is doing research on "froggie style"
anyway, the basics of it are simple, but the time they take is just too long.
or, at least that is what hijake told me...who knows? it might've been a different pair ;)
this research involves trucks, big tyres, squashed frogs, cat classes, big frogs, small frogs.
i've heard of horny toads...but horny frogs...lmao!!!
-Haze, Hijake and I had an amazing 15 minutes laughing session before the interview results came out...talking about mr. pressman! (rofl)
-Beastu rocked everything and everyone as usual...
he and haze were the first confirmed non-unemployed youth, among us four.
-I had a great indian laughter challenge session during my interview....everyone was making everyone else laugh...wierd.
-oh, the others who suddenly ended up with jobs are Mr. Curd and Bombo(murt), Gilli, Mamoo, and lots of others....
-My interview really was hilarious....
it started off with a conversation about lunch, manchuria, the college canteen and the college
after which we talked about nothing in particular followed by not much and then, finally, nothing at all.
they also asked me why i didn't know what formal clothes look like.
that was the essence of my interview...
for some reason, it seemed much funnier in college.. :$
whatelse whatelse....time to party soon, as soon as we all get the time.
later then...everyone.
love and kisses(only to the girls....don't look at me like that now, hijake)

I'm a little late, as always.

it's been a year...feels like a lot more
happy reading everyone.
my guess is everyone has a lot more fun reading this than we do experiencing it.
anyway, keep reading and commenting(yeah, i'm talking about the blog members here, coz we are the only "commenters" on this blog :P )

Where humor ends.
Where humor ends, there starts the daily rut at SNIST. This post is being published by the author(s) who have all but lost their sense of humor somewhere between the classrooms and the main gate.
Never have we felt so disgusted with our college management.
If u dont feel like reading the rest of the post, then the next line should summarize it for u.
"Snist is no longer an educational institution that it once was. It is now a corporate business factory that has the sole aim of running a totalitarian rule over the lives of the so called students (pawns??). The result is only complete discontent and resentment among the student community to an suxh an extent that an elite few of them (we??) are typing out their woes to share it with the more fortunate public."
Now, it is obvious that if u google for SNIST, this blog will be the third in the list of results and hence many potential subjects (students :P) might come across this blog. The following set of quotes is for those poor souls.
"Snist is no paradise and its definitely not a premier instituion as you might be thinking. It is a typical slaughter house with about as many flaws within its management as the number of hair on ones scalp. You might be thinking that a bunch of losers blog here to vent their frustration against academics and their poor performance academically. Let us assure u that we r well above the mystical "average" and absolutely NO credit goes to the college management or faculty. As haughty as that may sound, it nothing but the truth. Lesser "rated" colleges shows performances that are eons ahead of Snist. So, dont say that we dint warn you."
Now, for the jobless souls who are still reading this post might as well drop in a comment on whats going on in your mind this semester. If we are still as dissed as we are now for the next few days, pls do expect some elaborate(and accurate :P) descriptions of some of Snist's esteemed "faculty".
signing off for now,
cheers,
H

jeez, whatever.
Heck...i can't think of a way to start this post.
hey...that did it!
anyway, it's been a while.
hopefully everyone out there is doing better than we are.
hols were good.
but college was always the dark cloud in the silver lining.
so, almost our last semester in these hallowed, insect-infested, dust-covered halls
and corridors.
The head of the department is killing us all over again, this sem....much to his and
our dissatisfaction.
Ah...as is tradition, it is now time to describe our outstanding lecturers...
the ones who are supposed to mould us into what we will be years from now.
upon whose influences we are supposed to base our future careers and lives.
thank heavens we never listen to any of them.
okay, here goes.
Mr pink pants...or, the pink panter.
with a voice that would make lata mangeshkar's sound like amitabh bachan's.
btw, he is a guy(we think), just in case you missed the "mr" in the pink pants.
The hod...needs no introduction...popularly known as morpheus...still doesn't hesitate
to pick on me, as is his tradition.
oh, btw...today, he cracked this brilliant joke on the principal(ex principal, actually,
but then that is a story for another day) and the college and the south indian railway.
after which he guffawed so loud, the rest of the college thought they heard a asthmatic
fish being strangled to death in a bucket of soda pop.
The same old man who taught us something last sem. is teaching us something else this sem.
It seems totally the same, his attendance calls which last the better of fifteen minutes
his incessant rambling and sporadic shouting...deja vu!
who else...who else?
ah, yes...a character who teaches us something to do with web-pages and stuff...nothing
much I can say about him, except that he seems a decent sort.
This other guy...Mr pressman's ex...enough said about him...wait...i've something to add.
he looks like a deflated balloon.
and another weirdo who keeps smiling at all the girls in class...not much to say about
him as well.
That's it for now...
when you are feeling down, you know where to go!
until next time....god speed.

Highway snist
Ok ..before i forget how to get to snist, let me just write here about it.
firstly- if you just go and stand near uppal cross roads... you might reach snist in a few days, since...snist "sucks".
A relatively faster mode of transport is the college bus which for some reason starts off before everyone gets in.Once it starts the next stop is college.On way to college you will come across a lake which of late has become direct competition to the hussain sagar.After the lake there are not many things worth talking about till we reach 'highway snist'..,here we need to take a left turn.This road has two or three factories which probably produce steel besides dust and sand.By the time we pass this stretch of road(which probably has more dust than arabia) we will be half covered in a blanket of dust.And just after this...you will come to halt near a rail line,...where for some reason the train always comes at the wrong time.And after this, its campus next....but before that you get to eat dust oncemore.with our senses satisfied(nose and tongue)we finally reach college.
Now that we are in snist, we need to know how to get out of here as fast as possible.The default route out is via amby valley.Passing through the pits,we come to the amby valley and from here its trecking all the way to the bus stand.
The other route is through the gate..,from here... apart from the uppal route you can even take the route to ecil.Those going in bike in this ecil route are also expert bull riders.Besides these routes there are also a few other forbidden routes about which i am now allowed to speak :p .
So that was your road trip to snist.until next time bye!!

The end begins
Final Year!!!
Numerous stumbles, miniscule triumphs and loads of fun later, we finally made it to the final year.
This is the beginning of the END.
So, we made it to the fourth year and along with us on this ride is our very own jester, joker, villian, scapegoat...MORPHEUS!!!
He has reached a new level of eccentricity and we dare not hope what lies in store for us this year.
A new addition to our superstar filled faculty is Mr.Pressman..not the author, but just a guy who, we think, sleeps with the author.
So, Mr.Pressman, who looks like hes gonna pass out if he sneezes out loud, knows a lot of things; some which he isnt sure of, some which he doubts, some which he cant remember, and the rest which he read in Pressman. He deserves a place in the Looney toons in the least :P
On a more serious note, the placement division of our college has turned out to be a bunch of incompetent morons. They actually managed to send all our names as well as our registration numbers incorrectly to the recruiters.
Looks like our life is now care-of naukri.com
I will leave this post without a proper conclusion, because this is just the beginning....of the end.
cheers!

the calm before the storm
here i am, sitting at home, listening to steppenwolf, waiting for lunch... for the past two hours, on a working day.
went to college today for a mid-exam, left both papers blank and walked out of college; because of some freak accident, i happen to have enough attendance to last the rest of this semester...(that is another week or so)...
exams up in two weeks, and i still am not sure of all the subjects we have this semester...
i'm moving towards disaster...we all are, and we don't even realize it until it is too late...
i know, i know.....this is the first serious post on this blog, but it just had to come...
as i said...2 weeks to go for the exams, less than one week for the lab externals, and i'm still reading books, listening to music 24x7...
bah...pathetic...i'm sure everyone went through this phase...
enough of this...when i'm feeling a li'l blue, there are two things that cheer me up immensely, immediately...
direstraits..(alchemy-live), or the most hilarious video on earth...SNIST(comedy).
oh...some updates from college...
discovered the worlds first guarded toilet.
in the new block.
needed to use the washroom the other day, the closest one was in the new block, went towards it but was shooed away by a security guard..."only for staff", he said.
bees multiply like rabbits...
in first year, there was one hive hanging around, i think...now, there is one hive per 10 sq. yards.
weird.
--will upload pics when i can.
canteen's been upgraded...
-heard strains of led-zep, the other day, while waiting at the bike-stand.
was shocked...so shocked i couldn't move.
apparently, some canteen guy discovered orbit rock on worldspace...good on you, mate!
-new entries on the a-la-carte` menu...
pav bhaji, bhel puri...damn...this place never ceases to surprise me.
-they've extended the seating area a bit...now that more people seem to have found a liking for the canteen food.
new (newer) block still is a plan full of holes...
actually, it is just a lot of holes in the ground.
probably rain water harvesting in the summer or something...
this is snist.....don't be surprised.
well...finally, lunch time...
later, all...
oh, and good luck for the exams, if any of you are "cool" enough to waste your time reading this before the hols.
ps: we need all the best wishes and good luck that we can get, so expecting some through comments.
thanks, everyone.

More bored ramblings and an update.
Well, nothin much happened recently. However, as u can see the template of the blog has been changed.
Base template provided by Ekta Paneri.
Anyways..a couple of incidents that occured
1)
Another boring dawood session was in progress when this occured:-
Hijake: Dude, tomorrow last day of col, yippeee..and then its 3 days of hols!
Zaphod: Ohyeah! Damn thing has turned out to be a pain!
Dawood (screaming): And the tomorrow i taking will be last the two hours.
Hijake: Guess what??..Make that four days of hols..am not comin tomorrow.
Zaphod: *ROTF*
a couple of hours later:-
Announcement: Friday n Saturday are not holidays, Annual day postponed to next week.
Hijake: *zonked*
Zaphod: *Tries jumpin outta the window*
2)Later:
Hijake: Im bored
Zaphod: Im bored
Ippu (Zaphod's "Extra-curricular" activity): Im bored
Ippu: Hijake, do somethin!
Zaphod: Yeah, take off ur shirt
Ippu: *whacks zaphod*
Zaphod: *out cold and then makes an entry in his diary that goes "Never act ghey in front of her"
3)
Some uber-cool statements by Dawood:-
"We have two weeks and after those three weeks i will conduct one lab exam, otherwise i ill conduct 10 min viva, otherwise i will conduct external lab exam"
uhh?..i mean..we getto write only one of those? :O
"I will give u CD with material, if u want, u copy, otherwise i happy"

got inspired,got lost
The 6th sem or 3-2 as we call it has been different from the previous semesters in more ways than one.
The people of my class for instance, are strangely trying to improve their vocabulary and speaking skills , of all the things in the universe...."we are the got inspired by Dawood sir our" is the unanimous reason they give, with a crazy grin on the face.I dont listen to most of Dawood's lectures,but the good thing about him is.....if you are talking to your friend,rather than changing only your place,he says"both of you are come in the sit first bench"(so that we can continue our discussion there lol!!)
Another bunch of dudes have started reading books like "all about birds"( or words rather),"work power made easy"(or something like that),and so on...........this time inspired forcibly by morpheus . This morpheus who previously used to tell "set the benches in an order,u there....yes you.. set that bench right( it is off by 0.0122 mm),i like discipline,order blah blah blah..." is more considerate with respect to the 4th dimension....he allows us inside class even if we are late by a whole 2 seconds!!!! how considerate.
Three other prof's inspire us to bring pillows to class.But true credit has to go to the maam with that amazing voice,because of which our batch is expecting a PhD in lip reading shortly.
With such amazing people to get inspired by,murt and I got inspired(dont ask how :p) to give a paper presentation at jntu.But the central thought behind this was,...in murt's words,...."hey even if we cant get it right on stage,let us entertain the audience and return, and who knows we might as well get the prize"...followed by loads of laughter by me,him and the neighbours dog(btw do dogs laugh!!).So it was decided,and the day arrived....me,murt,MR curd,(called so since he will search for curd rice even in a continental-style buffet)and another guy(famous for his vanishing acts) set out.It seemed like an endless voyage to me and i didnt know the route....i followed MR curd while he raced ahead with his pulsar.Finally after a long long time we reached the campus.
The presentation was fine except for a few minor details that we omitted.....like our intro....so I gave a ishara to murt....and he amazingly managed to fit it somewhere in the middle of the presentation(though both of us had no idea what he was speaking).meanwhile one judge was getting bored,and left the auditorium only to return after our presentation was over.amidst all this my turn to talk came and since we were running short on time,i rushed through with the rest of the presentation at a amazing pace....this helped us since no one asked any doubts(mostly they were asleep) .After that it was lunch time and MR curd proved himself yet again,and after that while we were about to leave the "another guy" vanished..,murt in the pretence of searching him was engrossed in ornithology :p .So finally we left without him.
while going,suddenly i find Mr curd and murt no where (they suddenly got a brilliant idea of returning to the jntu campus to collect certi's).I didnt know the route but i continued to go till i was going up a road inclined at 45°. This didnt seem right as my house was never on such a isolated high hill.so i immediately took an about turn and using sun, clouds and direction signs for navigation finally reached home.
It is after this, that I decided never to give a presentation again.....but my decision changed again, the movement I stepped into SNIST the next day,since nothing else could be more bad than this.....lol.

so far, so bad!
Okay, it's been a while and i'm without an excuse, as always.
so, i'll just bash on regardless anyway...
oh well...it was a brand new semester about a month back, and all of us knew pretty much what we could expect, after having been in the college for 5 semesters earlier...
BUT...
all our combined experiences couldn't prepare us for the woefully pathetic situation we are in, in this present semester...how???, you may ask...as in ..."how could it have gotten any worse", or if you are from hyd, "aur bakvaas??kaisa, bhai, batao batao?"
oh well, it is a long story...not one, but a whole sequence of them.
it all started off with us joining this college, but let's not get into that, lets start directly with the point in question...
SEM 6!!!
starts off with a bang, with the much heard of HOD, morpheus, coming to our class, and telling us that he is going to handle us...note the word "handle" for a particular subject...i'd tell you what it was, but i'd have to call up a couple 'o guys to find out!!!
so, morpheus teaches(tortures) us twice a week, for two classes at a time, after which, all of us, to a man, need to urgently take a leak, wash our faces, or even better, just drop dead.
we also have another senile old man, i quote myself..."semi-retired, retired in mind only" teaching us some other subject, again, i'm not too sure which.
though, his class is a lot of fun, what with him taking attendance for 25 minutes in a crazy sing-song voice and all...whoo...i love his class.
apart from this, we have teaching us young students...
-one very depressed young man, who loves the sound of wood on glass,
-one very vertically challenged young lady, whom we can't really hear, coz 80 percent of her speech is in the ultrasonic.
-one very depressing fat man, who obtains sadistical pleasure from making us write notes, assignments and even other peoples' doubts!!
yeah, that's write..oh, sorry...that's right...he makes us write down our own doubts and then dictates the answers to them(which we have to write down too)...they generally go like..."visit sourceforge...s-o-u-r-c-e-f-o-r-g-e-d-o-t-c-o-m and search...etc..etc."
depressing, yeah! tell me about it.
hijake will prolly tell you more about these aforementioned two, because if anyone hates their guts more than i do, it is prolly him.
and last and definitely the least (hated, that is)
-one boring guy, who just wants everyone to love him and to listen to his class.
he also has this very irritating habit of giving an assignment each week...
his conversations with us are like...
sir-"you have to submit an assignment today"
one languorous voice "which one, sir??"
another slightly less languorous voice "i think he is on number 8 now"
a serious voice(this might be sir).."what about the first one???you did not submit?"
and so on...
apart from the sad faculty, we now also have a lot on our minds,
what with 6th sem turning out to be the carrier of the love bug(hijake, don't kill me!)
and lots of gre, gate, cat type of pressure from various sides,
its been quite a piss-off, to put it politely.
so, i'll just bash on regardless anyway...

snist03 rox!!!
yeah...thanks for all the comments, guys and gals.
the fabulous fearful foursome have now decided to give this blog the same amount of dedication that we don't give to our classes!!!and that's saying something!
anyway, lookout for more posts and updates every week...
and, thanks again for all the comments...this gives us an excuse to have a new new year's resolution(a bit late, yup, but still...)
to quote Haze who quoted someone else...dunno his name...."i have a dream", but i dont know what to do with it...
okay, there was a point to that point, but it has temporarily skipped the chroniclers mind....
ok, whatever...
the point is that we post more...and before i confuse myself anymore,
later, guys!!!
