The alarm in the morning today was almost as if it was ringing in my dreams. People find it difficult to believe that we stay up as late as we do and we're in class first thing in the morning. In fact i guess no one believes anyone amongst the hundred odd people who populate this department.....

I was thinking about the first day of college today... it was a nightmare... facing a panel of faculty, noone of them even vaguely from my generation trying to explain to them why i took the subject up.....

I remember very vividly how Arjun stood up first, rather he was asked to stand up first and give reason to his choice.... he was confident... spoke well, impressed anyone and everyone at one go.... in fact i remember borrowing some of his lines, with assistance of the twists and turns that the English Language allows us, to try and impress the bunch of old guys, who just sat there staring.....

It was a mortfying experience...but come to think of it now..... it was rather funny...
A bunch of 20 odd people... sitting all decked up.. shifting around nervously...
It been four years since..... countless number of fights.... hours spent together....
We'll be gone in no time....yet another chapter closed..... new friends..... new lifestyles....

Thats life i guess....
As an after thought... i wonder where Arjun went.... I dont know..... i tried to keep in touch... but i guess we all just went on with our lives....

i guess ppl come land in college not aware of whats happening..
and they leave college as lost....
they only learn to disgiuse it...
efficiently or clumsily...
you have the capacity to move you jaw...
or an attitude bought off the rack...
or some thing else that you wear as an accessory...
underneath... they arent smart,or intelligent.... they maybe bad too....
why cant ppl be simple at times... and simply good... without having to feel that they are being insipid and are not being able to impress....
who circualted this theory about having to appear smart ass and hot...
