A visit to the university of Peradeniya engineering faculty

The date was 03rd march 2013,and WE were going to visit the prestigious engineering faculty of the university of Peradeniya,which is considered as the most beautiful university in Sri lanka.

Honestly we all were feeling nervous,and as soon as we get there we were having awkward looks from the university students.All the girls were wearing skirts and we thought it's the dress code for girls in engineering faculty.Soon we were taken into a conference hall and the dean of the engineering faculty gave a brief introduction about the university.


There are 7 departments in engineering faculty
  • Civil engineering
  • Electrical and electronics engineering
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Production engineering
  • Chemical engineering
  • Engineering mathematics
  • Computer sciences
And then we went to the famous canteen of UOP :) and we had breakfast there.Quality of the food was good ,and taste was not bad either.


 There were some senior students guiding us to their labs and showing how they work there.They took us to almost every one of their labs and they were so proud about their high voltage lab.They mentioned that it is the one and only high voltage lab in Sri Lanka.(That's a pretty good challenge for UOM i guess :p)

According to the world rankings UOP is in a higher position than UOM.But in our society people believe that UOM is the number 1 and students with higher marks always select UOM.When we asked about  this from a professor  she said that it is students choice and they are not aware of the world rankings of universities.


SO feel free comment if you have a different idea, objections are also welcome :) .

How to survive A/Ls in 3 months...

Today is the first of May and there are exactly three months until GCE A/L exams begin. I intend to help people who has realized this and started panicking and feeling lost, but not only A/L students but also any student with any upcoming exam can use these tips to ace your exam. I will first explain why most of us usually wait until the day before deadline to do stuff. It's explained by Parkinson's law which states that " Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion". What it means is, if we are given a week to finish a task we will finish it within the week and if we are given an year to finish the same task we will spend the whole year doing it. Well that's how usually us, lazy humans work. Now that you know what happened there is no time to regret about how we procrastinated on unnecessary things etc. Now it's time to damage control. I will not gurantee you will get 3As by following these. (It's possible depending on ...

The Alfred House

As a person who lived in Colombo 03 and a student of the University of Colombo, I often came across Alfred House Gardens, Alfred House Road, Alfred House Avenue, Alfred Place signboards and wondered what is this Alfred House. And I always forgot to search until I started reading "Colombo" by Mohan Raj Madawala. As you all know I'm a bookworm and once I get my hands on a book I stop everything and start reading it. So while I was reading suddenly Alfred House popped up. I was like.. wait. Is this the same Alfred House we are talking about? So I immediately googled Alfred House... and boy there it is. So I was reading a book about Alfred House while I was in a land once belonged to Alfred House? (I read it while in the place I used to stay at Colombo 03) It felt so crazy to think about it at that moment. About 150 years ago it was the Alfred House garden. I started imagining flowers, fountains, gardeners working in the garden etc.. And all of a sudden I wanted to know ...
