TOW the last one

A wonderful 4 year ride is  sadly coming to an end.. I wish I could just replicate my hostel elsewhere wherever I go... I will just miss this place so much..

Just yesterday I was roaming around swearing out loud, and I realised this, that this may be the last time for quite a few things I've become so accustomed to.. :(

- playing CS, poker ( oh those night outs! ), FIFA

- roaming around in the corridor wearing nothing but shorts..

- cutting a birthday cake

- the last meal in mess!!

- beating up gotya. or getting beaten up by people :D

- Munna ji ka "khaana hai ke khaa liya?"

- songs blaring loud from my speakers.. kaiya, kelkar sitting giving their own "farmaish"

- the late night chat sessions.. mostly in eric's room :)

- going out to eat on sundays.. and the amount per person increasing as the years advance.

- McD's with the gang! pole with his usual order! ( two McChicken!)

- teasing Sarode.. Prism and his deadly comments! omg!

 I remember this one time, when none of us had computers, we were watching a movie over at Bhushan's room.. and our warden came for a 'once in two or three blue moons' stroll on our floor and found around 12 of us sitting on a single bed.. and he was like, " yaa this is why the beds break!! " :D

and and.. me eric kaiya anshuman and gattu were all gappa-ing.. eric drank water from our bottle and for a reason still beyond me, spat, nay sprayed, the whole thing on ansh and gattu! the reason he gave was. well it was a sprite bottle and a recent one.. he said the water tasted like sprite.. we were like, duh! is that any reason to spit it out? i mean normal people do drink it.. :D anshuman's immediate reaction, expressions and all, not quite appropriate to be said here, was something I will never forget.. oh..

and once in our first year, me and kaiya were in fronta Aurora.. and kaiya went to kick a bottle, his other foot slipped and he fell! and instead of lifting him up, i started laughing like crazy!!

and the Big Chief joke during first year's prodigy! me, bull (modak) , kathe, kaiya.. (5 ppl on 2 beds btw :P) laughed for one hour straight! :D that joke word since that day has been a nickname for one of my classmates..

oh so so many uncountable times of fun.. This blogger wouldn't be able to provide enough space to write!

I'm gonna miss this place like hell...

good day/ night

Hold on. Hold fort.

Every so often it is 
that your mind wishes to give up 
wandering hither and thither it sees, 
the innumerable forks, paths 
easier by far, let go 
cursing your heart for a dream it saw 
so stupid it must seem now 
rash and immature a decision so 
of following a dream 
with all your heart you want 
confusing, controlling, manipulating the thoughts so 
that with each day that passes, 
drags your conviction to a new low. 
don't carry on, let go! 
caught in the tussle 
a hurricane of thoughts 
helpless you weep 
hazy about what's right, what's wrong.  


But then in your heart, somewhere inside 
a tiny voice begging to be heard, pleads 
'twill be well worth the pain, the wait, 
just as you dreamed, satisfying mighty 
that you fought for so hard 
and came so long for, 
is so near and you're giving way, 
Hold on. Hold fort. 
it's only five inches now, it's only five inches...

Chemical Engg

I study in an alleged premier Institute for Chemical Engineering in India. This institute publishes around a kazillion papers every year on Chemical engg and technology. we have the most dedicated staff here. lots and lots of industrial experience, teaching experience and what not..

Oh crap! Such bullshit they sell to the people outside this Insti.. and they buy it!!

if u were to visit the institute's website, you will find all sorts of eulogies about the college and its professors.. there's this one teacher (he's not a prof yet.. phew!) who teaches a very important subject. he's such a brainless git, that we, the class, teach him, rather than him teaching us.. he's the director's stooge.. that is the only reason I can think of for him still being here. I hear rumours that he's set to become a prof.. oh and btw, he is also incharge of placements.. this fellow cannot speak english for crying out loud!! i mean, if he could teach, his english speaking skills become secondary.. but he can do neither, so keeping on licking the dir's ass is his best bet.. and i think he's shrewd enough to know this.

all the profs are, u know, are really unsatisfied with our batch. everybody's saying that we don't know anything.. is it our fault? might be.. i don't deny that i'm a lazy ass.. but we had such amazing profs to teach us certain essential subjects, that it's a miracle if we survive in the Chemical Industry. probably that is why many people opt for PhD's abroad, or MBA..

to be fair, i think our batch is quite brilliant.. we have our share of einsteins in the class. except a few ticks like me, there's many hard working guys..

personally, it doesnt matter to me what these profs say. I believe that i know a fair deal of chem engg and can survive out there. it's just that i hate these egotistical, morale-sucking bastards who are the most condescending bunch of fucking pricks i've ever seen.. remember the dude i mentioned before? the dir's stooge? he fucked our class rank 2, a total genius, based on absolutely NOTHING, in our training presentation..

to be fair to the institute, though, we do have a good number of really good teachers. and i hope the above mentioned pricks dont phase them out.. otherwise this place will go to the dogs..
