From Freshers.. to Farewell...... The Journey

before starting with the "Being in final year" stuff... i thought writing about the journey...

August 2006... Bang....our life in JSS began.. the memory is as fresh to me as if it was yesterday...

we all got ourselves registered in th EC course.. Oops.....!!!!!!! Then waiting in the Hostel's lobby.. in front of Kantha Sir's Office.. finallyyyy....!!!! we got our room allotted at 5:00 pm in the evening.. it was a long day....

life started two days later... Monday.. when i went to the class.... he he [:)] .. i still find it amusing to imagine tying my oiled hair in pleets.. atleast for a few days..

Life... has changed so much all these years.. from being freshers to final years.. neways.. i dont try to understand life now.. its too complicated and perplexing..

thinking of how we switch from TOI to Hindu... from DT to ET... from Education Times to Times Ascent..

from casuals to formals.. or for that matter...the other way round... from "Pants to Jeans.. or Suits to Skirts" [:D] we all know what i mean... we become more mature as well as more hip.. we become sensible and cooler....

how the topic of discussion changes from classrooms and bunks.. to Placements..job.. market...CAT,GATE.. etc etc..

how friends become boy/girlfriends...from single to committed.. for some the other way round.. from committed to single... to each his own...

i sometimes try imagining people around me(including me) when we all were in the first year...

most of us have changed drastically.. in terms of looks, in terms of thoughts, in terms of attitude and sensibility...

CTRL+Z these years.. and we all will find ourselves too Naive... duniadaari bhi to seekhi hai na dosto...??????????

figuring out what we want...who we are..!!!

figuring out what friends we want and who all want us...!!!

learning to stop hanging around in the lives of those.. where we are not required... and also learning to be there for those who will, (they might not tell you, though), want us always..

College life.. is about learning to not give a hoot... its learning to just be yourself.. its about growing and maturing to a broadminded world..

College life is about finding friends for life.

College Life is just all about ---Having a Life.... and telling the world... "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."
