The Fighting Experience!!

Hi Friends, Well the title may be quite misleading. So let me make it clear in the beginning itself. It was the day of my project VIVA. And it seemed that the external who had come the other two days had been changed for the third day. And man he was kicking quite a bit of ass. I being alone in the project was quite scared of the happenings. And the tie on my neck seemed to almost choke me. But my friends kept on forcing me to keep wearing the tie. Well its good i listened to them as that made me look quite presentable. Anyways it was my turn for the presentation. I was fully ready to face the music by the examiner. My school friend (Sidd) had made me quite prepared for the vivas. And it was because of him that all my fundas were clear. Then the presentation started and he stopped me even before i reached the "Problem Definition". He asked me about the bad links and what i would do about it. Then he asked me about Google's crawler and that is when the fight started. He kept on telling me that the thing i am doing is a copy of Google and it exactly same as that which was not true. So i protested. I started introducing the features of my project (which by the way is Web based Crawlers) and in what sense is my project actually different from Google. But he kept on interrupting me again and again and kept on insisting that it was the same. Now i was beginning to loose my temper. But i still kept my cool and still stood my ground on the project. By then the professors who were sitting behind and some of my friends started giving me signals to cool down and accept the flaw which was never there. Well then i became a bit slow in my voice but not low. And before i reached the analysis and design of the project the external told me that this was enough he wanted to know. I thought that he must have been very irritated by a student who kept on arguin with him. But as i had just finished to sign the sheets for my submission, he called me and said "Try doing it with PIS or Auto text categorization and see it will work very nicely." And the smile on his face showed me that he was very satisfied with me. i smiled back and said "Thank You" and left. Well this was a great experience for me which i dont think would be repeated again. Atleast i hope this. But as you say "All's well that End's well." And so as i reached the back of the presentation hall i loosened my tie and felt the greatest satisfaction.
