ED 101

Yesterday, I had been to the Big Trees Rail Road at Santa Cruz. It's a very good fun place for old people and people with little kids (Translate it as "Not for me"). Anyways, the picture of a boiler for the steam engine brought back memories of Engineering Drawing class which we had to take as Freshmen at my Undergrad College, IITM.

We had a one hour theory class and a 3 hour drawing class every week. So we were supposed to listen to the class(!) and then learn the stuff and draw it in the drawing class(can't help but be vague for I don't remember anything). For me it meant run(literally) to the theory class 15 min late and doze off. As for the drawing class, all credit goes to the only other female and my best buddy in the class, Neeharika. She used to give me a running commentary of what she was doing and I used to follow her. That meant drawing a line if she did and erasing it if she did it. Wouldn't have survived without her. Final exam was enlightening to say the least :).

I miss those days.
