Best Things to do while doing engineering in india

College life is very much over rated in India, specially for new entrants. We have impractical expectations and what not... 

Well, here's a list of what should never be missed in those 4 years (hopefully, 4 years!) 
Making it year wise: 
First Year: 
1. Come in like a clean slate.
2. Accept your college. (IITs are not everything, If you're not in IIT)
3. Accept your branch. (Don't burn yourself with regrets of that one question you did wrong in AIEEE which could've got you computer science)
4. Make a rapport with seniors. But don't be a slave.
5. Make some kickass friends.
6. Talk to every girl on campus on pretext of ragging. trust me that's the best way for a conversation starter and no girl minds it when you're doing it on the name of ragging. (I did many crazy things, and no one ever batted an eye).
7. Join clubs
8. Take a sport.
9. Make a girlfriend. Seriously!
10. Don't be in a long distance relationship, its not worth it.
11. Go on a trip
12. Explore your interests
13. Participate in every damn event. It's not about the performance, its about coming out of comfort zone.
14. Just enjoy
Second Year:
1. Make a girlfriend, if still don't have one. (Nobody gets a girl after second year, its a universal truth)
2. Creative Junior-senior interaction (You know what I mean)
3. Make yourself matter in things you're into
4. Get in a hostel fight. Atleast once.
5. Find your true calling
6. Picture yourself 5 years down the line and start working towards it
7. Learn a bit of every branch. Not just yours. Even the bits and jargons. Helps a lot.
8. Be favourite of atleast one professor.
9. Travel
10. Read atleast 6 books a year
11. Become a movie buff
12. Watch serials
13. Learn guitar. Girls love it.
14. Watch and follow English football leagues even if you didn't earlier. Puts you in a different league, trust me!
15. Send mails for internships. Try foreign universities or companies that pay you.
16. Work on some hands on project.
Third Year:
1. Time to get serious.
2. Start preparing for the thing you want to do after college. For real
3. Do something crazy, you're never going to forget
4. Work on public speaking
5. Identify your project. Make it big
6. Get placed. Don't think much, its all luck anyway.
7. Networking. The thing which makes the world go round.

Final Year:
