Second part of the story
Nalanda, the digital library in NITC, is supposed to be a store house of knowledge. Many people say : "We can access lots of International Journals thru NALANDA". The things that attracted me were the Air Conditioned Room and the really sexy computers out there. The computers available in CC were really desp. Many a time, I found difficulty in opening my Yahoo Messenger in CC. More over I was caught once for viewing something 'UNDESIRABLE'. So I started to hate CC.
So I started to think. "Why shudnt I use the facility provided (NALANDA) by the college properly?". So I went inside the NALANDA, and checked whether my username and pass word were working there. No!!! I talked with a Checchi there and got a new username and pass word. I was very happy . But still I wondered why many people preferred CC to NALANDA. Many of the seats in NALANDA were vacant. Atlast I realized the truth. " ORKUT IS BLOCKED IN NALANDA". Shit!! I wasted lots of my energy for getting such a facility. ??
I tried out various ways for entering orkut. Atlast I found out the way. Use https://www.orkut.com. I shud use an 'S' along with http://. ..Thats it!!
Thus I was in a position to access almost all the sites thru NALANDA. Great!! I started to use it for all purposes except the one for which it was actually built. ACADEMIC PURPOSES.. Even my friends, who used to call me a PAMP , wondered. " What happened to this guy? . For the past three days, he is not coming to my room for using my computer..Entha evan nannayo?? " Btw, PAMP(The Snake) is a pet name given to those who want to disturb others in every possible way(especially by using the computers of others, without even giving an oppurtunity to the owner to touch his comp). Unfortunately, I was a person who was not having a computer and I was supposed to be the Greatest PAMP in the E Hostel.
hmmm.... U can cheat any one till u r caught . But my NALANDA days did nt last long. I was caught , for using orkut in NALANDA. The checchi started to 'advise' me . She even blocked my ID. She told me to meet some Prof in charge of Digital Library, if I wanted to use NALANDA facilities again. Shit!! Again back to CC...[:(]
