                                                                After going through many articles and many motivational videos, you may believe that following your passion makes everything easier.

Programming for Beginners

  When it comes to learning programs, like any other beginner, I was confused about which program to learn first during my engineering first year.  Even if I wasn’t eager to know much about programming, I still wanted to invest my time learning something. Classroom learnings have never benefited me( nothing against it). I started attending classes because my parents wanted me to.  I wanted to know more about programming languages during this pandemic, so I started browsing through online courses. But nothing taught me better than a few youtube channels.  Apna College:  Learning from Aman Dhattarwal is a boon, and if you want to clear your basics, then you should go for this channel. Currently, I am following their data structure with the c++ course, and my basics were never this clear. They code the program and execute it properly.             If you are a beginner and aren’t satisfied with your classro...

It’s Always About Following Passion

    They always say that it’s easier said than done. Well, this realization hit me when I was busy knowing about how the Pinterest business account works. It actually isn’t as difficult as it seems. But for an engineering student like me who is torn between her lazy self and her passionate self, things can get challenging.  Here’s how I posted about my very first blog post of Engineer’s Chronicle on Pinterest.  Step 1: I created a thumbnail video by using canva. It is a savior for everyone who knows a little to nothing about editing pictures and videos. To make life simpler, this site has already given us several options. For the apparent reason, I selected the Pinterest pin, which led me to a new page. Step 2: Having multiple options allowed me to step up my game and chose what I found best for my first blog.  I chose to make a video and added a piece of free music to it. I won’t say that it is the best post, but I am proud of what I did on my first attempt....

Engineering Exams [The Most Unserious paper of An Engineering Student’s Life]

  Words can never express how much engineers (most of them) hate exams. Sometimes I do feel that we are taking everything for granted. Then I realize that I come from a middle-class background, and everyone expects me to ace every exam because that will give me jobs. Skills are actually the most underrated concept in every engineer’s(almost every) household. Unfortunately, I have been taught in my family that failure is not a part of my life; rather, it is the end of my life. But with time, like every other student, I stopped prioritizing exams as much as I should. Writing thousands of assignments only to witness it getting tossed in a bin sucked the life out of me. To get more marks( so that I can get people off my back), I started cheating. It did get me a great cgpa( great in my opinion since I have always been an average student), but I wasn’t happy with what I was doing, so I stopped it.  No, I still appear my exams and get the cgpa like every other engineer student( by u...
