One lazy Sunday afternoon... i sat arranging my desk[*OK OK...u may want to say exterminating my desk#* ,as according to my mom its a jun(k)gle in there....n was ruthlessly sentenced 2 d task of tackling the monstrous junk-lies single handed**] .
As i was going through some of the topsy turvy shelves...lying in a far corner almost hidden beneath a Textbook(i have a blurred memory of a teacher mentioning it a couple of times this semester!!!!***could it be important???) was my album which i seemed to have tossed carelessly along with my other college stuff!!.......
With one eye at the door...where the 'Jailer' [mummy dear] seemed to be patrolling my every move...so that like the last few times i don't slip off d job and get into my favorite past time...dreaming!!! Making sure that she was nowhere around....i started leafing thru d album...of the past semester's...looking at all the fun times we friends had together...
It wasn't long before i was lost in the wave of nostalgia sweeping over me.... As i began remembering....
The First Day i set foot on the Threshold of my Engineering college.,,,along with other freshers I had felt as vulnerable and scared as a 4 year old going to preschool for d first time!!!
It was a new beginning, a totally different life...professional college,...and the worst was that
none of my old friends were here....
I remember......
As i went through the list of students from my assigned class,...searching desperately for at least one familiar name...eyeing the crowds for a friendly face,......in a far corner i spotted a group of students (happily chatting away...not a care in d world,...).
Perhaps i realized that i was staring or i don't know if it was the annoyed glances that they threw at me... i jealously tore my gaze away from those seniors and dragged myself to the first class!!!Wondering when the 4 years are going to end.....????!!!
But as time flew and days turned to weeks, weeks to months nd months to years...
I realised that life had given me much more than what i had left behind...!!! A
Beautiful college,Amazing teachers, Great classmates and
above all Wonderful friends!!! Friends that helped me understand myself like i had never before... !!!We had our fights n bickering's,...and fun times galore....the way we battled the Exams together...and how we supported each other through the ordeal of results!!!Mostly of all we learned how to work as a team!!
And Now as we are in the third year of our 4 year degree course....each person preparing to go off on his own way in a span of time......I just wish that the Time would stop by for us so that we could go on leading this carefree student life forever!!! But Of Course dreams cant go on forever...they have to break at some point...And in an year we will be passing out of this college...leaving behind the castle of memories ...going in search of our destiny...hoping teary eyed that when our paths cross someday we shall still be the friends we are this day!!!
This Phrase I read somewhere describes exactly what i feel:
'We came with the fear of not knowing anybody...
But
We will go with tears after knowing everybody!!!'
And as i was sweeped back to reality by the ringing of my mobile....I felt a tear roll down my cheek as a smile played on my lips cherishing 'the bitter sweet moments in my life'.
