an awesome day...

Am just back from Cheddis and its 2 in the morning. Got thoroughly drenched in the rain. Except for the trousers the rest of yours truly seemed very happy. Listening to Lyin' Eyes by the Eagles after AGES and it feels good.

I've been brimming with ideas to psyche out all those kids who've come, parents in tow, for counselling after cracking JEE. Would be great to talk about scary fictional ragging stories within earshot of all the concerned parents. It'd be enough to freak them out totally. Its seriously amazing when you think of all the holy notions with which you come here straight out of school. And what's funnier is that these kids think of you as some holy being.

In the evening the weather was unbeatable. Overcast, windy. And i was having coffee and the best conversation with the girl. And some of my first college memories came back.

Went for dinner with Dash, Saahil and SV. Its wonderful hanging out with the guys. Having endless time to kill and not a worry to boot. The most amazing thing about the group is that theres always a ruckus, theres ALWAYS some hillarious incident to recall and laugh our heads off. LAUGH. Something we can't EVER do without. Later I met up with my first and the best friends i have in college. Dutta, Keshto, Nishant, SV and meself. Mandal wasn't around. Keshto hasn't and won't EVER change. The same freaky maniac he always was. His winning ways with the females make up half the funny conversations.

To end it all we walked all the way to Cheddis in the rain just to have cha like old times. Catching up on stuff. I miss the sharing of our hopeless lovelife problems with each other. And every second guy acting as the funda god. And now whenever we meet up we try to regain the lost touch. "Aar tor ki khobor"... the semblance of concern falls flat on its face. Its sad. You can never connect like old times.

Am back in Kolkata tomorrow. Back to good food and all the comforts home provides. But the freedom that Campus life brings is undeniable.
