Good , Bad and the others!!

College is coming to a close...am i supposed to be happy or sad?easy answer is i do not know!!??
Its been quite a journey .... though there' s lots i ve already spoken about the negatives ...well!! it indeed has taught me lotsa things , made me laugh!! have fun ...meet "new" people....try out my non-stop-nonsense,my sincere apologies to the King of EAR(S) ...especially the divisional manager of my class!!.
Though initially i had a lot of apprehensions...i really liked the campus from day 1..since i was not used to serious class attending business! in my u.g i had lotsa difficuilties sitting in class ,the first semester.

fIRST DAY
I remember...coming back from college in the bus...our bus stopped on the way to pick up a bunch of people travelling in a different bus coz it broke down ...this tall thin girl walks up .....first thing i noticed about her was her message typing speed!!(man !!she was typing like a maniac!!)...so we ve since then shared a great journey of some of the most interesting converastions...knowing each other...arguing ...fighting..etc etc !!

ThE BuS

This routine begins everyday at 5.oo am in the morning ...i wake up to the alarm in my mobile and since then keep extending the time till say 6.00 am!!Some how frantically get ready...and the toughest part is to CATCH the bus.....though i kinda get a message on when the bus in comin pretty much all the days....
i end up chasing the bus...running....etc!
one Classmate of mine takes the same bus at the same stop...
i l type a message to her

"am coming"-meaning , stop the bus if i dont make it on time!!
and invariably i get a reply from her
"Me too"!!-meaning she l end up coming late....actually later than me!!

so its a bit of a circus everyday!

TemPle

I jus love that Pillayar kovil in my campus.....whenever i go there my mind relaxes...i get a lot of inner strength n peace!!so i make a silent prayer every morning when i enter the campus.

"ThE School ChildREn " Trees

Theres this salt marsh opposite to my campus..which i had an amazing opportunity to visit once ...its beautiful!!
Also another attraction there.......... is a bunch of trees which look to me like kids standing in school or morning prayer that too in perfect Height order!!Awesome....When the course began i ve seen them dry and sad looking but now they look so happy and green!its a real treat to watch them everyday.....not to mention the pretty birds and the cute little creeks during the rains!!

ClaSses

Ok this was also an intersting phenomenon everyday....!!I sit in class....and yes i used to take notes and yes i remember listening to class!!
Wokay! the truth is class hours have been the most adventurous ones!!
Be it passing notes,talking(which i always do!),getting caught!irritating a person sitting in the front....staying alert to pick up phone calls when the real cranky ones give a missed call!messaging of course....playing "chappal "football!..staring ouside the window!!etc etc....

Doing frantic presentations.....Group discussions....assignments.....TESTs....!!

And yes we do not kno in our class who is using who's pen!!
so i end up staring at my pen in someone elses hand ...thinking that looks like mine!!

Reading Newspaper is an important activity...yes! that too when classes are going on......

Some professors who just kept me n i guess ,the class ...too !...spellbound were Raj sir,Mahadevan Sir,Shekar sir....these people are a real gift to us in this college!
Stats sir! his conversations are evergreen..like ,
"see once u r gonna do like this ,my expectations are 99.9% u will fail"
"see...what is S?"
"u may ask your seniors... i do not want to name them"
"see...say hello to her"

It was fun times..some of the group assignments were a real joy to work on!!

StOres

All of us in the block have close to a 100% attendence at one place...our Stores!
Its our food reservoir!!Its become a habit to visit the stores atleast 5 times a day...
Stores anna ...by now knows what we want...so i go there and the first thing he asks me is "coffee daney ma!".But one has to be careful on somedays like Birthday etc those are the days we dread visiting the stores..of course the one who celebrates Birthday goes home with an empty wallet!

LaB

he he!its the most exploited place after the classroom in many different senses...the dim lighting!!!!ahem ahem.....u kno!!
but all that ......all of them in our block do without fail is "to orkut" its become like a disease!!




HosTel
The most dreaded place....for its food !(the girls hostel!!).....but our only refuge !!



..theres more i wanna write...and will do it.....now gonna doze off!!
