A.I. (Art of Inducing patience)


Well Artificial intelligence may be an interesting class for the

geeks but for us it’s the most boring hour of the semester. We

call it the Art of Inducing patience, yes the A.I miss always

makes sure that our patience is tested to its ultimate limit .

There is an ongoing cold war between us and miss where miss

tries to improve our patience while our brave warriors eludes

her in vain efforts and falls into the deathly hallows of sleep.

Wednesdays are the most horrible days as it contains 2 hours

of a I on the tot. Let me describe you the behavior traits of some

students during A I hours

(These are exaggerations made by the author. forgive him if you

find it offensive in any way )

Starting from the first bench

Siji and Nithya were gazing at the board, you can tell from their

faces they do not follow a thing. They just kept on gazing at the

board even after miss rubbed the board clean. Guess they saw

something on the board which was invisible to the rest. Sunitha –

doing what she always does the best ie to concentrate on

concentrating (now don’t ask what the sentence means even the

author is not sure of it, hope you understand what he is trying to

convey). Tara –taking notes probably the same old Pompeian

stuff (what is so special about Marcus anyway??.Cant she(miss)

find another example ,oops forgot about the cat).Vineetha was

laughing may be having one of those funny day dreams (the only

girl in our league , way to go girl!keep dreaming).Naru was so

attentive that nothing short of an earthquake could halt his attention.

Nishad was following narus league while Sanju ,as uneasy as

always twisting and turning ,cracking his crap jokes at regular

intervals.Ryan another day dreamer probably picturising an

outer space fight between his favorite cartoon characters .Ron

was drawing some weird things ,he proudly calls them bikes

(thank god at least he knows what he is drawing).Sreeni was

following rons work closely as though he had the rare privilege

to witness Davinci paint another classic (what ever ,people will

do virtually anything to kill time during A I hours so what if rons

painting is not a classic it aint half as boring as the class).Coming

to the next row the Neethus were murmuring and giggling(gosh!

girls and gossips). Nesha kept nodding her head to anything and

everything the miss said (her mom must be giving her a nice neck

massage, this is one heck of an exercise she does and that too

through out the day).She was shouting answers to all questions

disturbing the peaceful sleep of the back benchers, poor guys

they never disturbed anybody still having this horrible fate (an

astonishing vocal cords, she is definitely lucky to have one of

those .no one will ever miss her point unless he is deaf).Varun –

as always expressionless can’t make out what he is thinking

probably day dreaming, huh! Forgot Mr Varun is in l_v_ keep

dreaming man, you are licensed to dream. Seeing Mr. Romeo a

faint smile came to my lips. Here is one guy who could make me

smile in any situation, even in this heck of a boring situation. May

be he keeps reminding me of his idiotic pranks or may be guys who

say they have a beautiful mind has that effect on you, I don’t know

for sure but he could always make me smile .the guy was desperately

trying to listen. Then coming to the last benches suppu was sleeping

so was Shinto so was kanjan so was rest except me and chori.

Chori as always was deeply engaged in his mobile, don’t know

what he did with it and never dared to ask him about that .And

me I was watching all these pranks in the class and then I realized

I was the only one in my league who was not sleeping .Damn, im

destroying my reputation for sure ,I have to sleep.Now ,why am I

not sleeping? may be because of my marathon sleep the previous

night starting from midnight till noon(bunking the morning session

of course).i think that explains a lot about my sleeplessness but still

I was harming my reputation .i had to sleep the question was how

then it suddenly came to me the golden rule of the bad boys “if you

have any problem to get sleep try attending the classes”. yes that

did the trick , slowly sleep started taking its toll on me. the class

seemed to be fainting ,my eyelids started gaining weight and I was

falling on the bench. That’s all I could remember of that AI hour.


now you may ask me who is winning the war is it the miss or us?,

has our patience increased?.Not sure whos winning the war or if

there is any improvement to our patience but one thing is for sure

our sleeping sessions have definitely taken an upward curve.
