Now a graduate!

It feels nice to be called as a Bachelor's of Technology, the feat which comes to me after much entanglement in the past 4 years.

Now that I am sitting on my laptop and thinking about the past four years' that have changed my life towards a new direction or should I say to an entirely new place where I can chose any direction where I wish to advance.

First and foremost, I feel proud to be an Production and Industrial Engineer. Looks like I always wanted to become an engineer in this field. I would like to sincerely thank people who helped in making my decision to take this as my major subject in bachelors'.

Not many people from my batch admire their degree in the way it was meant to be. Looks like they were in a process of completing some formalities for getting their degree which says they're graduate (This is what I have felt after interacting with many people around me). I will not go deeper into this thought in this post.......I will now talk about my learning's and the corners of my little life at iit delhi.


-- Lock & key: Somewhere I read "No one manufactures lock without key"; likewise if there is a problem, there has to be a solution!!! Knowing that there exist a solution to the problem you are facing, brings down the difficulty level, isn't that great!!

-- Confidence: This is one of the most awesomest trait anyone can possess. You can do wonders (and bloopers too!!) if you are confident. To the people like me who had faced public speaking blues in presentations, class introductions etc......I have got a very nice solution ........

Suppose I have to give a project presentation to my class consisting of 40 odd people. And I am feeling low on confidence worrying, nervous thinking about what's gonna happen when I speak.......what if I mumble in front of them!!!
What I'll do is - I'll think about a situation where I have to give this presentation in front of a thousand people. What happened mentally is, my current situation seems fairly smaller in front of the apparent situation which i have assumed. This is very well experienced that humans chooses smaller challenges with greater confidence over bigger challenges and that's it. Problem solved!!

The Bike I love!!!

Since early teenage, I am looking at bikes, all makes ......... to visualize one day I'll ride my own.
And now that I am exposed to quite many of them (I believe) through auto expo, bike show on television, top gear, internet et al. I have finally made up with the bike which I would love to possess..........

and it's YAMAHA 350 Torque Induction

Above shown is 70's model.......
The RD was produced from 1983 to 1990 in India. The production stopped due to higher running costs. It gave a mileage from 6 to 23 kmpl depending upon how well the bike was driven.

The USP's which I liked about this bike are:

• Round Headlamps - Well personal choice.......I like it round, gives a retro look.
• Rear view mirrors - Those round, stainless steel mirrors gives bike an awesome look.
  
• Wheel Spokes - Alloys are definitely not on my list ...... doesn't look good on bikes at all.... traditional spokes rocks!
• Design of fuel tank and seat - Reminds of the bike rode by Super Commando Dhruv, my childhood comic action hero.......the only difference, that bike had rectanglular head lamps........not bad either!
• Front disc brakes - I and most of you would also agree that front disc brakes and rear drum brakes are a great combination! this '70s bike gives that....
• Engine - A 30.5bhp@6,750rpm, 347 cc engine gives good enough power to enjoy your ride.......for non racing purpose!! just the perfect power it contains!
• Twin silencer - Add style!
  
• YAMAHA - The name says it all!!!
