Yet another begining comes to an end! !!

I can't believe four years of college has passed already! !!

It's been an awesome ride. The many friends, the canteen, the jaunts out of college are all things that end with this. I would be really surprised if I meet 20 percent of my classmates in the next 20 years. Everybody is treading a different path, it's so intriguing that people with such varying thoughts and aspirations practically lived and had a gala time together for four years and then suddenly gained an idea of what they wanted for themselves and are now moving away. My thoughts, I guess everyone eventually lives for his/her(I am not chauvinistic) own survival.

So, college has indeed come to an end and i am still trying to come to terms with that fact along with so many other things that are changing in my life! !!

As a final meeting before the quest for life and glory, the boys met for lunch at a place called 'BARBECUE NATION'. Awesome joint and we had a whole enclosure for ourselves! !! Nice conversations, great food, beer and lots of laughter was followed by the saddest part of the evening where everyone shared their "goodbyes" with promises to meet each other and never forget what we shared for the last four years.

A very touching moment indeed! !!

It was during this meet that a select group including me planned to extend the evening to a cricket match at the Chepauk! !! The match was however a boring affair but being there with friends, among so many other people and the charged up atmosphere really got me excited. It was after all a T20 match of the IPL.

The warm up,


Awaiting the start of match! !!


I am so bored with the match, so picture the ceiling.


Well, altogether one would guess that I had a nice time with friends. But on the lonely ride way home from the match I realised that it was the final time I laughed and joked and had a good time with these people. I reached home with a heavy heart and wished that i wake up the next morning a kid and I could, just once, have a oppurtunity to be here with my friends all over again.. Just Once! !!

Whew! !! Bushed! !!

Today was officially the last working day of college or so it was supposed to be, but since the students (i.e. us) planned on making it a day for shooting photos and merryment the working part of the day was kinda lost! !! Thankfully! !!

All friends and girls in sarees really made my day. No matter how grateful I am that college is getting over I can't seem to get over the fact that some of these people who have made a huge impact on my life might cease to exist in my life physically. Somehow, I've always found this habit of posing with friends for photos on the last day stupid and ridiculous. Four years of staying at the same place and sharing a lot of emotions and spending a lot of time with the same people (this has never happened to me all my life.. I've studied in 9 schools in 4 cities) have some what softened me up a bit to actually realize that these were the precious few things that I'll never get back in life! !! Regretting all those times I've not cared to remember my friends... I've lost so many that I wanna treasure the few I have now!!!

My friends in college

(thats me in the far right! !! With Parthi, Benito and Kabali in that order)

(again on the right! !! With Barry, Balaji in that order)

Balaji was in fact the first friend i made at college. He was my roommate at the hostel! !!

(guess where.... again on the right! !! With my favourite girl, also my study pal! !! Kavin! !!)

(Me........ tired after all the posing and smiling... guess the person who shot this pic got lucky.. check out brainy Athreya digging gold at the back)

Well, there are more pics to come.. I've not got them yet.. Soon you'll find it here!!

So.. Moving on..


Tonights a big match for my team. Having lost the first leg away at Fenerbache, this match is a must win situation for Chelsea. So, tonight I am busy! !!

As for yesterday, most of it was spent at friend's place. I got a haircut so that i look good today.
And yes if you'd noticed i used my other blogger page as my interests blog so that people can link to it from here!!!!!

Tomorrow, heavily scheduled to eat less the whole day so that i can hog at the PARTY! !! Yes, as final years.. we are having a party to say bye in a special way! !! This is very social one.. (i.e girls take part) and then there's one for the guys, probably at a beach house with lots of booze! !! Wish these last few days of college would last forever, for college or my life has never been so packed and full! !!
