One more set of... Murphy's Law @ SCMHRD

P.S-The laws have been formulated not only keeping my personal experiences in place, but also that of all my friends and my roomates.

1.The Laptop law:- Just when your laptop is not working and you want to get it repaired... that is precisely when the HP service person on campus decides not to come for sometime to campus!!
2. The Breakfast Law:- The Day you get up precisely on time and sacrifice your sleep to get hold of your favourite breakfast ....you discover that they have changed the menu for the day...

3. The Attendance & Results Law:- Just when you want to make sure your attendance is allright or check your results ...the Local Intranet is down with some problems!

4.The Law of late night Hunger:- Just when you are very hungry while being up late in the night (in hostel), you end up searching for food in all the rooms where people are awake but end up with nothing....

5.The Law of the last class:- You attend all the classes, .....Miss the last class..thats when the attendance is really low in class, ....the Professor gets angry and decides to set 80% of the final exam paper from numericals done in that class, .........which you come to know a day before the exams!!

6.The law of Sleeping in Class:- Just a day when you doze off in class, the Professor points at you during the class. Worse follows....the Professor precisely remembers the moment and marks you the lowest in class participation !!...still more embarassment...the time you go and argue with him against your low marks..citing examples of your contributions..he reminds you of this very sleepy moment !!

7.The Law of Mobile:- The day you carry your mobile to class, the director decides to makes a surprise raid for mobiles and you have yours confiscated but ...your neighbour saves his by using your bag as a hideout for his phone. The story does not end here, you retrieve yours back by paying a hefty fine while your neighbour happily flaunts it!!

8.The law of the Notice Board:- The day you dont check the notice board before the final exams ....the notice for a change in exam schedule is put up and the exam is pre-poned ..worse still....you discover all this on the day of the new date .....that too....on being informed by your friend.

9.The Law of "Dil Chahta Hain":- Just a day when the entire section decides to get naughty and catches on to "Dil Chahta Hain"Movie on the Class Projector during a free lecture, that is the moment the Director walks into class and the whole section spents the next month in the library with compulsory library hours to clock in.

10.The Roomies Law:- You are a cleanliness freak and your roomie is not one, ...the day when you are not in the room, the director turns to inspect the hostels and praises your roomie for keeping the place tidy.

11.The Class Participation Marks Law:- The day you decide to miss the class for one reason or the other, ....is also the day when the teacher decides to mark the students for Class Participation Marks

12.The Law of the Lift:- The time you decide to take the lift to the the fourth floor of the academic block and thats when the door on the fourth floor... opens for you to find the Director standing in front of you!! (The particular lift is not meant for students!)

13.The Law of Wi-Fi:- Just when you dearly want the rooms facing the academic block for want of wi-fi connection 24X7 for your room, you discover that all those rooms have been taken and you are left with rooms facing the hillside, .....which you defend round the year saying that you love natural beauty more than anything else and the whole world knows you are a net freak!!

14. The Law of orkut:- You find a new proxy everyday to access blocked website orkut...only...to discover that the particular proxy has also been blocked by the system administrator.

15. The Law of Backlogs:- You decide to flunk in one of the tougher subjects to concentrate on others, since the system has no backlogs exams till then...thats when you discover the director has changed the rules after the results....and has decided to conduct backlog exams with immediate effect!!

16.The AICTE Rule Law:- You curse the college for the first year for not being AICTE approved and also ruin the fact that your degree will not be AICTE approved, and thats precisely when in the second year the college gets AICTE approval,implements AICTE rules of not awarding degree to students with more than two backlogs in two years and lo behold...you discover you have more than two backlogs with your degree itself in jeopardy forget any AICTE recognition for it!!

17. The Law of Plagiarism!!:- Just when you finish writing such a blog, you discover a similar blog like this has been written by your junior titled Murphys Law from his experiences...!! But you boldly decide to post this still....citing that his blog was an inspiration for you to write this one!!
