UNIVERSITY LIFE TILL NOW




Hello there, I'm Prottoy. I am currently studying Computer Science and Engineering at BRAC University. As a fresher the first semester has been a roller coaster ride for me. Faced some hard times along with moments to cherish about. I'm just gonna share some here.




As I'm not a native dweller of Dhaka city, it was kind of a struggle for me to fit in here. New atmosphere, new people around me, new social life everything was slaggy at start. It didn't last long though. My roommate is my school's childhood friend so it was an advantage. My two other flatmates were also very nice and friendly, which eased many things for us.



First day of the university was also very memorable for me. Even though I'm not a very shy person It felt kind of odd to me to talk to someone at first. I still talked with the guy named Yamin who sat beside me and came to know each other. He is my best university mate till date. After all the classes ended we sat with some more guys in the canteen and that's how my first day went.



Orientation day came by few days and that was one hell of an programme. My roommate Srizon and I went there knowing almost no one, but made some friends there afterwards. The day was a good one.



By this time university's academic pressure was also increasing. Mid term, quizzes , deabtes, labs everything was knocking at the door. I felt depressed at times due to pressure situations like this. It made me miss my home which I left only to persue my dreams. It kept my passion alive to drive to the obstacles and overcome them. I won't say my marks were extraordinary but It didn't get that bad. I wasn't disappointed with my grades of quizzes and mid though I could have done better.


After mid classes started between Ramadan. It felt way different than normal classes for obvious reasons. After Suhoor there wasn't much time to sleep for me which caused me sleep at noon. Leaving away from family had to make Iftaar by myself and manage studies too.

It was difficult at times but I didn't hated that a bit.

             



Currently Eid vacation is going on and I'm in my hometown Rajshahi. After vacation few quizzes will take place and then Final exam will occur. There is not much time left to prepare. I have some gaps to fill after vacation and I need to do that urgently ifI want to bring good grades. Hope i can do that Ameen.



So, that is how my university life is going till now, Its different everyday and I am all in for it.

Engineer's Life: Expectation vs Reality

Image
E very year, many passionate students enter the field of engineering , but some end up feeling regretful after a few months. Dealing with consistent pressure can be challenging, especially when it comes to tasks such as submitting assignments, completing lab work, and taking midterms. What is worse, students come to this field believing that they don’t need to memorize anymore. Unfortunately, the reality is they need to memorize even mathematics often.   Waking up at 6 am, and then rushing to the university is a common routine for most students. Let's not even bother talking about that unfinished task they do during class. Forgetting the syllabus of the upcoming exam is a common disease for them. Sometimes students carry coffee instead of water in their water bottles. Consequently, dark circles around the eyes have become a common identifier for students who are pursuing engineering.

Besides carrying the history of Bangladesh, the rivers highlight the livelihood of the country's people. Rivers have articulated and fragmented people's lives, politics, economy, and overall Bangladesh.  The fertile field that the mighty rivers brought, introduced a settled agriculture in Bangladesh which built up our community, societal structure, demographic patterns, etc. The economy of Bangladesh mostly depends on agriculture. Most of the people in native lands associate themselves with wet rice cultivation . Industrial development progress in Bangladesh still holds on to the primitive occupation of agriculture. Bangladeshi culture is mostly river-based. Boat race, an ethnic cultural heritage of Bangladesh, represents tradition in front of the world community. The " Bhatiali " song based on the rivers originates from Mymensingh and
