4 YEARS IN AMITY

4 years in Amity

A journey it was and a journey it is. My life started as a toddler where i was blessed by all my loved ones, went to school for all the lovely days and times that imparted me priceless knowledge. And then came college, the 4 years i will always cherish, the 4 years that made me what i am not to forget what i will be. This day is indeed a very proud and happy moment for me today but the sadness and pain of being parted from this amazing life, amazing institution makes my heart bleed.

My first days in college were the ones where i kept myself aloof from all the lucrative people and happenings in the classroom. Alone i swept through the corridors with a fear of being unknown, with a fear of being alone in the massive crowd of aspiring minds. But then came the day when i met and made history, I made my friends. Initially they seemed to a bunch of Delhi kids living the college life as they wanted, but later we created the most memorable and the unexplainable crazy moments of our lives. Till day i feel as if these 4 years flew away like the sands of time. The teachers, my mentors, my guides, my light of the future cannot be left out in these heartfelt words. All the knowledge they have imparted in the best possible ways, bearing our super irritating and mind boggling questions and funny tricks,  is priceless. There aren’t enough words in my dictionary that can describe the gratitude and respect that i would like to bestow upon them.

The final months on amity, the so called final years of amity taught me a lot about my life. Being the times when i had to get my work done by telling all minds of stories to the teachers, or getting grades by the clear way of working hard. The final days taught me the value of VALUES that exist in our lives. The time when i was haunted by the fear of getting a zero in my JAVA internals and tried to show my friend’s assignment but which turned out to be a big mistake. It was sheer apology and an assignment done by my own hands that ultimately fetched me marks. Surprisingly i never forgot a word from that assignment and worked wonders for the major examination.

This speech may never see its end, my experiences will always fall short of words and time will always knock on the my doors reminding me of my constraints. But the time has come where i have to bid farewell to this awesome phase of my life. This milestone of the journey has given me experiences that are unforgettable. I look down upon you all to see smiles and tears on faces altogether. My feelings are inexpressible, but my words may have given a look of the storm inside my heart.  A big salute to all the ones like me who travelled this journey along with me, a big thanks to all the ones who supported me endlessly and a big hug to everyone here. We still have a long way to go ahead. A journey it was, A journey it is.

SOCIAL MEDIA: BOON OR BANE?

SOCIAL MEDIA: BOON OR BANE?

We all are acquainted with the fact that life is all about competition and survival of the fittest. Then how does anybody find time to socialize? Of course, people get together and enjoy themselves. But even that becomes rare. Solution- A secure social networking website that offers you to sit back, relax in front of computer screens and socialize. You stay connected with every stage of relationship in your life- family, colleagues, close and the distant ones.

In today’s generation, human values and its importance is gradually on a decline. Nobody in particular can be blamed. However, social networking sites play a key role in some way. People spend hours on a laptop busy chatting but can’t afford to spend a few minutes with elders at home. Children play games and upload photographs, commenting and liking them, but don’t wish to conduct themselves properly and learn the spirits of honesty. Nobody today can come and tell a person to stop surfing a social networking website. But exploring other options of socializing are more beneficial.  Let’s take an example. You meet your family’s elders and spend time with them. Or you probably take out time for lunch get together with your relatives once in a while. Not only do you benefit from socializing and strengthening bonds, but you also pick up on values of being considerate, cooperative and positive towards the ones you care.

Time waits for none. Every species on this planet shares an equal amount of day and night. However, how you socialize and schedule your day depend on you. If social networking sites are a reason for decline in human values, let’s join hands and strengthen bonds by stepping outside. True human values always help a person in his pursuit of success and strengthening social circle. And thinking different and better for humanity in general has no match. After all, life is all about setting the priorities right.

4 unforgettable years in Amity

A very Good morning to our esteemed Founder president Mr. Ashok Chauhan, vice chancellor Mrs. Balvinder Shukla , all HODs , faculties and my fellow friends. I Harshveer Singh perusing my graduation in Computer science and Engineering stand before you to discuss my 4 years of life in Amity University.
The time has come to bid everyone goodbyes where one of the most amazing and joyful ride of my life is coming to an end. I still remember the first day when I entered the college. My dad settled me in the hostel and I was not exactly nervous but rather I was excited for a new life where I would be managing everything on my own. Entering amity first thing I noticed was this huge sports field and the H block where it was like a food court in a mall. Everything was present there like milk store, fruit store and departmental store as if like it was a home away from home. Then was the first day of class when I don't know anyone but I know that these are the people with whom I have to spend the rest of my 4 years so I thought will I be able to make friends? . But soon I got the answer and I made so many friends out of which some became my good friends and some very close. One of the most important thing I would miss about my college life is the time spent with friends. First year I was new to college life and everything. It took some amount of time for me to get to know how things work in college and what is the place to go for different kind of work. First year we used to have all classes and that to till the end of day so it was kind of frustrating but then all my tiredness went away after I played soccer and spent time with my friends.

Each semester was new. Subjects were new so were the faculties but one thing remained permanent and that is my friends and amazing time spent with them. I’ll miss the 5 minutes break talks between every class and the joy when a teacher is absent and there after some random plan to go out. Semester kept on passing by but our habit of missing classes, not giving tests and copying assignments never changed or improved. We all are still the same. Sometime your get good marks sometime bad but the joy after results are declared is another fun part which I would miss after college.
Sanghatan and Amity youth fest are the two biggest events in Amity when you can either participate or work for the success of the event. I tried for Sanghatan but due to my knee injury never got chance to play in the tournament.
In my case each semester improved me as I became a better person. I got to learn new things, tried new things and face different kind of challenges many times. Every time the assignments, class tests, exams and projects made me a stronger person mentally and physically and a person who can face any kind of challenge or pressure at any point of life.

Now I am at last semester of college life and it seems like it was yesterday that I just entered college. Last semester is very emotional as the number of classes is less and everybody is busy with internships or placements so one spend less amount of time with your friends. After coming in the last semester there is a huge difference in me as compare to the first semester. I can bunk college anytime I want, I can give exams without studying and I have stopped caring about attendance but these are bad differences. The good one are I am a better person, I can face any challenge anytime ,I can work under stress and finally ready to face the corporate workd. At this point of time I got to know almost everyone around me even my teachers. It is hard to think or imagine that my college is about to be over and there will be no more of college fun with friends but I am happy for all my friends who are placed and are going to start a new chapter in their life. But the college memories will always remain in my heart and my friends will always remain with me.
