The Final Days

Yaaay Yaaay Yaaay....My Assignments and writeups in my whole of engineering life are 95 % complete.That means no more of that Mindless and continous writing,writing and more writing.After 10 odd days my "Great" College will give a farewell which will be almost like saying.."Jaa 4 saal bahut jhel liya tujhe ..Abb Nikal yahaan se" :D .But It would mean the end of a roller coaster journey of mine with so many up's and down's. Our exams dates were announced yesterday and it's on the 15'th of May ....*Sigh* ...But just 4 more papers to go and then after 4 months or so I will be known as Er.Anurag ....I am kinda roflmaoing right now on that thought :D
But guys whatever you say ....College Days are special ...I don't know how many of you have heard of the song "College days" by an artist called Gaurav।I certainly hadn't till about a week ago।It just sums up my whole engg life and I am sure other Mumbai University Engineers who are gonna pass out this year...Just wanted to share that song here....


Kab Milenge na jaane hum
yaaron phirse sabhi
Laut kar ab naa aayenge
woh masti bhare din kabhi
Ho dil yeh apna kahe ki aye dostonnnnn
I am really gonna miss this place
I am gonna miss my college days

Yaad hai woh saare lectures
humne jo bunk kiye the
Proxy ka pakda jaana
Lafde kya kam kiye the

Milke likhna woh journals
aur submissions last minute pe
exams ki woh tayyari
aur likhna woh teen ghante
Aur Baahar aakar woh kehna
"Saala kya Bekaar paper set kiya tha yaar"

Milta 1st class kabhi yahaan
toh lagti thi KT kabhi
Laut kar ab naa aayenge
woh masti bhare din kabhi
Ho dil yeh apna kahe ki aye doston

Yaad aayegenge teachers
humko dil se hamesha
yaad aayegaa ye campus
aur iski apni duniya
Ho yaad aayegaa hamesha ye aashiyaan

oh... I am really gonna miss this place
I am gonna miss my college days. :)

CAUTION !!!!! :->Death Ahead

"28 Bombs Found in Surat", the headline screamed. As I often do, I skipped that part and read the sports section instead. But somehow, that particular headline rang over and over again. It even overshadowed things like “Eric Cantona advises Ronaldo to stay at Man utd”.A pretty bizarre occurrence ran in my head. The newspaper had also given the pictures of the people who had died in the Ahmedabad Blasts and I thought to myself, “Did these people know that they are going to die soon??” Suddenly the relevance of words like "Life and “Death” seemed totally Irrelevant and Questionable.

I remember a conversation I had with my Grand-mum decades back when she had said, Remember Son, All the People living in this world have a definite Lifespan which is encrypted in their Foreheads. So I asked, don't we know then when are we going to Die??Unfortunately Not, and that's why it is said that we must always live our life to its fullest :) Why think about Death, It has already been decided by the Almighty!! That's why LIVE LIFE and don't think anything else. Just out of curiosity grandma...What about those who commit Suicide...Does the almighty decide that too?? To that Grandma said: They are the most coward people in the world who do that as they don't find any solution to a "Problem”. Look son, Almighty doesn't want people to die but he can't stop the cowardly, Can he/she??

Those who planted the bombs were cowards too, as they were fighting a loosing cause. After the Mumbai Train Blasts 2 years ago, they talked about the "Spirit" that people living in the city showed when they went to work next Morning...BULLSHIT!!!...That was sheer "Majburi" and nothing else. They actually also wanted to LIVE LIFE if you look at it in one way. They also agreed with my grand-mum's "Lifespan Theory"...To be Really Honest, I wasn't Scared after the Mumbai Blasts, But after Banglore/Benglooru and then Ahmedabad I am kind of Starting to.But then I remember my Grand-mum,the conversation and her theory and I say let's LIVE LIFE but let's all be cautious as unfortunately there's nobody to tell us something like CAUTION!!!! :-> Death Ahead.....

The Return of the Confused Souls

Yes Yes atlast my exams are over *Sigh of relief floats across the face, dies down eventually*..if all things go well I should be in the LAST YEAR of my engineering ....Gee's seems surreal the way these 3 years have just "whooshed" past away like a dash of wind blowing across your face like it does during the time of Spring.Three Years of college,lectures,exams and the dreaded of them all, the RESULTS.....seen that,done that.One more Year of doing the same...I got no choice but to fight it out for another Year.Seniors tell me that this would the most enjoyable Year of them all ...I hope they are Right coz uptill now it has been all, but that...... :(

As I went that day to give my last paper of Computer Graphics I saw a bunch of People who I had'nt seen before hound around the college chit-chatting...Girls doing their usual giggling and boys studing the college from top to bottom as if they had'nt seen such a marvel before...Ohh,it finally dawned on me,cet results had just been out and they might have come window shopping or rather college shopping err..whatever that means...As I entered college I saw a bunch of people looking at some kind of board, a man-made board which I had'nt seen before ...I thought some important notice might have come up so I just made some space in that small crowd to have a look, what I saw made me giggle...it had information of the various branches that our college had and when those branches had started and all other kinds of information...Gee's I can't even distinguish a wannabe F.e from someone else I thought !! I overheard the bunch discussing,hey this branch started just 5 years ago and this did 8 years ago, so it would be better if we join the latter...won't it ??..I coughed and could not control my laugh that time ...In the midst of it all I forgot......I had a paper to give !!!

These confused lot of teenagers can't even decide of what they want to do in life.It makes no sense to say what the guy who made me cough say.I mean are'nt you supposed to know whether you want to go in the field of I.T or Tronics.Hell most of them don't even know whether engg is good for them or not.The poker faced "-just-out-of-school" teenagers ai'nt aware of what they wanna do in their lives.They seem to forget that there is a word called as "Interest" in English Dictionary..Go in that line where your "Interest"lies,in that line where you will be happy and content with your life in future...but it's rather sad that most of them either don't want to or because of peer pressure pursue something else (most of the time it's engg).Teengers today don't have a goal in life ...their goal sadly begins to develop when they are either in the middle of their education or when they graduate..then they begin to drift apart and pursue something else...but why do that...One really should have a vision in life and that should really develop when he/she is 15 rather than 22...There's no hard and fast rule that it should...but things become much easier that way ....don't they !!!

As for me ...Working Class Hero is All I wanted to be and trust me ...that's something to be.... :)

Graduation,College and Cats :P

It's been two weeks or so since my friends doing their b.sc's,b.m.m's or b.m.s's etc etc (except engineering or architecture or medical)have finished giving their FINAL final exams and after a month or so they will turn into Graduates.So having a chat with one my frnds I told her how content and satisfied she must be feeling now that she would be inducted into the Mumbai University's graduates list and she was like ...what satisfied ....as it is my exams did'nt go well ...I don't know where I'll be or what I'll be doing in the next two months and worst of all I'll be missing COLLEGE !! gee's I thought that's so TRUE .. what was I thinking when I said that ...Probably it was the jeolousy of being in the third year of engineering slogging away and seeing my other frnds getting to wear their convocation attires ....baah they don't even do that anymore :( So what are you doing now I went on to ask ....and she was like ...nothing ..sitting at home ...gorging on some lays and watching IPL matches .........What come again... IPL
matches ....Girls watch IPL :O ....Gee's hearing that I began to wonder what's gonna happen to me in 1 year's time ...I am gonna be in her position and doing the same :( to make it worse there won't be IPL too ...as if I cared...It's getting boring now :P...But Coming back to the Point...that's a sad life to have ...She is right ....Instead of being content ....they have nothing else to do ...GEE's that way a four Year Course is Great ....That day my Friend was saying Our College
is so L.S... :P College is College ...however so it might be ...One must Enjoy it ....Won't get these Year's Back however so it may have been :)

P.S:

I don't know whether this is the trend with your residential society or not ...but in my Society the Cat's are slowly but surely out numbering the dogs ....MEOW'S have out numbered the woof's ... :P Actually it ai'nt Meow it's more of a waaooonn ...Scary Noises at night I tell ya ...

Like the cats Another trend that's slowly getting Rampant is the number of People giving GRE ....GEE'S Every Second Person seems to be on it ....and Why not ...The American System of Education is one of the best if not the best in the world ...but I just Hope People Come Back to India and work on an Indian Dream Rather than Glorify An American one !!!
