Five years

I just sent a mail to my friends with the same text, but I can't help but repeat myself. It feels like yesterday that I stood outside that gate. Scared and excited at the same time.

I met quite a few people that day and never did I know I would make friends for life.
The early days in CMC, sitting with adi and trying to work out programs. Feeling jealous when someone scored more than us on a test. Making new friends. Bike rides with jyothi. Anu me and jyo forcing adi to eat pani puri. Making detours just to eat pani puri. My huge brick of a nokia phone. Parvez eating pani puri with a spoon (most of my memories revolve around panipuri). Pinki naveen and kakuls huge fight.

Kernex, first thing that comes to my mind as pavan said is the great food we had. We all used to sit on the floor , I used to save my sweets so that murthy could eat them. And when the heavy breeze would take away our chapatis and papads.. Sam would shout 'are murthy egiripotav jagratha.' Giving a 'hand' to Adi everyday after lunch. Sitting next to parvez and siraj in the first row and managing to talk throughout the day without the faculty noticing. Dressing up for dandiya night. The early edisanus of RAKtv. Bhupi telling me he'd donate some money so I could buy clothes which were not torn. Sandy's comments about me combing my hair. PRP!! Studying, failing, crying and studying more.

Then moving to work. The antakshari in QP, days(months) spent in freepool. The bus journeys on sundays.Sriram and bhaskar bribing sailu to shut up. Bhupi, Sandy, Mahi, Hari, Sriram, Bhaskar moving to blore. Bindu crying till the fountain was full. :)

And most of all how can I forget ' mr braganza!! ahhaaa!!'

Now five years have passed. We don't share the same equations with everybody. But somehow the bond remains. Add your memories here everybody. not just with me.. whatever you shared with We43. Add a comment.
