Today morning when I went for my early morning jog I realized that I was really missing my friends very much… It’s been nearly a month and a half since I saw my college friends….Yes that long!!! The last time we were together was for the demo of our project in college… After that each of us have gotten busy with our own lives and haven’t had the time to meet up… We do call up each other and send messages though..but that's not enough!!!
Two of them have gone to their hometown, others are busy with work… and some others are already preparing for higher studies….
This made me wonder if things would ever become the way they were a month ago… To be frank I’m glad everyone is moving forward…pursuing their dreams and doing things which make them happy… I’m really happy for them… but somewhere in my heart I wish if it was possible for everything to be just the way it was a month ago…
Anyways I’m the kind of person to make the best out of the situation… so I decided to write about my college and my experiences as a student ….
My college has a very special place in my heart cause its probably the only place I studied where I felt “AT HOME”…. Seriously I absolutely love the place…
If I say “my school means a lot to me” or any such thing then I’d be lying… yes!!!
To be very frank I never liked my school .I never got the feeling of belonging there.
Always felt like an outsider… Never liked any of my teachers except maybe a few of them… I know its something very horrible to say.. but the truth is always bitter…
I can hardly even remember their names…. Not that I have a bad memory or any such thing but the fact that I never felt anyone of them were worth being remembered…
Always felt that most of them never had the qualities of being teachers… no patience, no consideration, no kindness… all of which I think are extremely essential to be a teacher….
Then came my classmates… not a great bunch of people… I liked only a few of them… and its not like I’m bitching behind their backs… they new exactly what I thought of them…
Then my seniors… a few were very nice.. a few bullied me… I can’t say much about them…
13 years of my life were spent here and I can say that the only good outcome of my association with this school was my friendship to Madhu… :)
Then came my PreUniversity college .. Nice place… made an amazing set of friends…Bhavna,Maha,Ketaki,Chaitra …. The first year was pretty okay… still getting to know these people… Second year was hectic, but still great fun…
The canteen was great.. used to get amazing lunches for just 10 Rs.. and the softies were yummm….
The lecturers were fun too…(told some really ***** stuff... go figure out!!!)the fact that it was an all girls college made it even more fun… we could do anything we wanted bindaas…not bothering about who’s looking etc etc….
The fests were real fun… I’m not much of the cultural fests or as a matter of fact any type of fests person(Read as: technical or techno-cultural)I’d rather be a home watching TV or lazing around my house person…..But did not want to hurt my friend’s feelings by not attending…. (Yes I'm very considerate and kind person... not some jackass who does'nt care for her friends)So I used to tag along with them….But had fun though… just because of their company..
But still there was something missing….I can’t point to what that is…but still felt kinda out of place….
Finally joined a B.E. course and came to Dr.Ambedkar Institute Of Technology the place which gave me everything I wanted….
I still remember the first day… we had chemistry lab the first hour..I did’nt know where the lab was … and probably searched the entire college.. was nervous to ask any senior… Finally found a lecturer and asked him for directions… Since I was early to college I made it on time for class… (I'm extremely punctual)
A few weeks later found an amazing set of friends… First time I felt that people just like me existed on this planet!!! (read as: those with similar likings and interests)
It was the first time I liked all of my classmates… they were a fun set of people… a few from north east with really funny names… All their surnames began with Lal….
My very close friends from this college are Mrudula, Sahana, Prakruthi,Prathima,Preethi,Divya, Nuthana,Kusuma…. Had great fun with all of you…
Most importantly was at peace with myself… found a great bunch of friends and a wonderful college……..
The lecturers were great too… neither too strict or lenient…just the right combination of both.. (I'm sure everyone wants the lecturers to be strict sometimes!!! Ok maybe not... but I'm weird... I know that)....Very supportive and considerate… qualities I had never found in my teachers before…. (don't think that I'm trying to butter them... I'm already out of college)Even the non-teaching staff was great…(nooooooo I'm really not kidding!!!) They helped us so much throughout…. Especially for our project….can’t thank them enough for all their help..
My college Dr.Ambedkar Insitute Of Technology changed me and my life…. A biiig THANKS to all of you who were a part of my journey from being the gawky teenager to a sensitive adult… THANK YOU!!! :) :) :)
