Life within the Four Walls

Life within the college campus is no doubt the most enjoyed one but there are some facts that we must know about the college days. A quick look at what really is the college all about.
Deadlines are made to be extended…ALWAYS!.
The dumb geeks are the most pampered people during the internal exams.
The lab assistants are the most respected people.
The watchmen are the people most bribed.
The HOD is the most dynamic person.” OH, we love him, oh , we hate him”.
Dropping subjects is ‘cool’.
There is always a lecturer in the college who can’t speak proper ‘English’.
Night-out is the second most important tool to ace the exams.
The most important tool… the bhramastra… is the ‘chit’ in which the words can be understood only by the person who wrote them.
The freshers are the most sought after… be it in the canteen, the ‘free’ periods or for completing the records and assignments.
The third years are the ones with the ’so-many-backlogs’ feeling and the poor souls get down to studying after bossing around in the college for so long. But the fun still continues.
The fourth years have no connection with the college whatsoever…with no interest in ragging, pulling each others’ legs, the b’day parties, the b’day bumps et al which they enjoyed so much till now. All they want is a good placement and a ‘1st-class’ tag attached to their memo.
The first three years are spent in cursing the college, the people , the system , the canteen and even oneself choosing the college
But towards the end of the fourth year ,people tend to feel nostalgic about the pure unadulterated fun they have had for 4 years. Now the very system they disliked, the very canteen they cursed, the time that they spent there, the b’day bumps they suffered… all these seem like heaven to them.
