Last week left at college

The day which every engineer waits for is that when will he leave from the college (so called JAIL). I also thought of that day which seems too close and it feels like everything is ending day by day. My last week before the End Term is left at the college after which every one will get separated. All my friends working in different areas in different companies. It feels nostalgic but that's the part and parcel of life and we can't change anything. Earlier I used to feel when my degree would get over and I would start working but now it feels that everything should get freezed the way it was, the way I used to enjoy among my friends and my passion for working on various things with my friends and teachers some of whom guided me on the right direction.

I think I need to mention about the Alumni Office (my work place). Still remember when I used to have the key and how much I enjoyed with 2 of my seniors and one of my batch mate. Will not be able to forget the lust for cyberoam password for unlimited download, 24 hrs login (access to fb in college :P) and the way my cluster mates used to ask me to get them such a password. I worked a lot on alumni site and enjoyed at the alumni meets meeting really nice people everyone with different view point. I think it was the most memorable part of my college life.

Will surely miss working with my juniors and asking them to write code for the projects I was involved in. Also, way my team (4 people only :P) used to work for Aranya Tech Fest whole day and night and we did our best, though didn't get the recognition which I had expected. Other side of the world was the life with lot of parties. Party for B'day, placement, internship, cheque form Alumni Office and for any event which I was involved in.

This post can't be complete unless I mention about the C104 Room of Hostel-B (Some people who know me will surely recognize what I am talking about). B-Hostel was the worst phase which I had in my college life. First torture was the food served in the mess of this hostel and second one was my room. I was unofficially the 5th room mate of 4 of my friends. Still remember the feeling of my actual room mates at that time, some one (rather all 3 of them) worshiping every morning and evening, dancing on various bhajans on name of God, putting the syllabus in front of gate so that no one disturbs them during exams. They did all such crazy things which no one could expect and soon C104 received title of Haunted Room. These 6 months in Hostel B were only responsible for our group of 11 people taking Hostel J.
Let me mention some crazy things which my cluster people did. Played Kabaddi in cluster inviting Mr. Sandhu (Care Taker of all hostels) for his marvelous lecture. Then the SOFA incident. The usual complaints we had like TV not working, RO not working, SOFA missing, Laptop of one person in cluster lost (that too on April Fool Day :P) and more things which we did (don't want to mention here). Then coming late, arguing with guard for not keeping our I-Card. But yes it was all fun :D.

After a long wait of 3.5 years I would be leaving now for my dream job location i.e. Bangalore. It would be a great experience to shift to a new place among new people, all with new ideas, full of energy and working with talented people from all over the world. Not only this since I will be away from some of my best friends while on the other hand, will be meeting maximum of my seniors who helped me all the way during my degree and studies. Helped me in getting a Job at good companies based on their experience.

I think howsoever my college was but it was an awesome learning experience for me which I will always accredit.
