The legend of chibil

3,00,000 B.C
The heavens were being poked, the thunders liked their status and the gnawing  clouds were chatting amongst themselves when one of the most blissful events of mankind engulfed the earthly panorama, the Everest bowed down, the arctic melted, continents swum across pacific and dinosaurs paid homage as a creature with supernatural powers and great abilities took birth on this petty planet earth. ‘CHIBIL’ he was born with such credentials that would soon prove to be as strong so as to dismantle all the laws of space-time, universe, you name it.
Had that been any other ordinary child sonu or monu it would have cried but the baby Chibil had other plans. The poor doctor who witnessed the inception of the baby had nightmares for months. ‘HAU’ were the first magical words that the baby had to offer for the ears of the doctor. The doctor was affirmative of the sublime soccer skills of the child as the first kick of Chibil was straight onto the groin of the goffey doctor.
2011 A.D
Its Roshali in place called Bbuneswari blessed with the arrival of Chibil on her land. No one in the universe was aware of the legacy of the guy who had just entered the college. It was our hero’s first class in college when a professor named Bobo who first saw ummm……. let’s just say sleeping because our hero is not beautiful atleast not until we consider humanly parameters of beauty. All these centuries our hero had all his psychic powers still within his petty human body. Thanks to the same Chibil suddenly realized a substance made up of varying composition of a compound which had calcium, carbon and oxygen in it. Though still asleep it took only few nano seconds for Chibil subconscious mind to calculate the empirical formula for the compound. To his surprise he learnt that he had been hit by a chalk on his fore head on the first day of college by his professor. Sleeping for our hero was a curse given to him by a mermaid sometime in 200 B.C. All these years when our Chibil was exploring science and doing weird experiments he would fell asleep as his neurons would get jammed and would simultaneously forget his recent memory and this would happen each time when he discovered or invented something, like it happened when he discovered the laws of Gravitation. Wait……….……what! You think it was Newton who did it!! Obviously not, Newton was just a fraud who copied research papers which our great hero and protagonist wrote. Only effort what Newton had to do was to translate that ancient Zulu script by Chibil into contemporary language. Same was the case with Faraday, Archimedes and many more.  The only difference was the way in which they stole or copied the theories. Einstein had the most adventurous expedition for the same.
Only first day into college and Chibil had his aura felt by almost all. His sleeping skills fascinated everyone. He had the ability of sleeping in 786 poses with his eyes opened and closed as well, or even with his swirly over head accessories pointing in any direction of choice. But sleeping was the least he had to offer for his spectators. His brilliant skills with football, dancing that would embarrasse rookies like MJ and music that could make Mozart to be proved as a novice.
His first day at college was now at dusk and Chibil was performing an extremely skillful task. He was receiving audio signals of frequency 100Hz, computing the co-ordinates of the source considering the Chibil effect (commonly known as Doppler effect) and simultaneously using them to send signals to his locomotionary organ (legs obviously). Suddenly his eyes opened when he sensed some source threateningly very close to him, his eyes opened in no time, it was a lorry truck some 5 meters from him at his back. A simple human then would have fainted but Chibil had nerves of Titanium. He flipped back in micro seconds and straight away ran into the vehicle.
What happened next? Would the truck have survived? Would something unprecedented happen?.............

I LOVE HERE @ COLLEGE


Bright heads lying on the desk remembering the good old days when they used to solve deadly problems of mechanics from ‘Irodov’ or the vicious questions of calculus. Not too long ago the same minds had conviction to change the world, to explore the aglow world of knowledge and to study when they would go to college. College that too an IIT meant and still means for those who are entirely secluded from it, a sort of a knowledge shrine where one could pursue all his scientific temperaments through research. The clueless faces occupying seats in class at college are the same that used to be in perfect synergy when they were taught much deeper and tougher concepts at their coaching classes during JEE preparations. Surely it can’t be that their IQ disappeared in thin air. Keeping track of what is being ‘taught’ suddenly appears to be a challenge worth great deal for those who came off their schools in flying colours. And exams!, they are differently perceived now. More than knowledge its management skill that one performs in two days before the exams to get fair grades. Arranging Xerox of the notes, books and more importantly the syllabus are the tasks of utmost importance before any exam. Surely there are some questions that why an IIT undergrad might say “MAA  C****** MID-SEM END-SEM PHODENGE” ? Are we accomplishing what we wanted to when we entered the gates of JEE centers? Or rather are we inspired to accomplish anything like that?But wait..! did you think this was going all dark shady?? And that someone experiencing this might some day call it off by scripting “I QUIT” on the walls of his room then I would say you are ummm…….?? a bit judgemental .  College my dear is that Pandora box where you get all the shortcuts to success, an exhilarating ride into the world of fun and adventure. Fun that teaches a lot, funny isn’t it? A maze with only two ends, “You get in somehow and get out somehow”!
