COLLEGE DAYS .................

The sweet (really??????????????????????) college days are over. Cheers to next step of my life ……………. job life. At this juncture may be it is the right time to analyze the 4 years that I spend in my college.

I can still clearly remember my first day in college, (I should, coz it's not so long ago, 18'Th august, 2003 ………….. if my memory is not betraying me) in my formals and a bit of fear in my heart ……………. what will happen? (I mean ragging of course)I tried to be a total professional in my green shirt and off white trouser that day. And in ragging session ……………………………. I was asked to propose a senior with a pen as a flower in my hand (it was Nildeep da's idea)……………… and ……….. I did it. Of course that shaved further treatment from seniors. And I was let off.

On those early days I used to pull everyone's leg in my class (I was like that …………. and I guess still I'm). One incident that comes in my mind is about Suto. In chemistry lab l revealed a secret about her in front of our teacher and I had to take four kicks form her:::. I used to eat an egg every day in college. My job was to crash the egg on Shaggy's head everyday before eating (actually I requested my mother not to put off the upper skin of the boiled egg so that I can use it on Shaggy's head). Some days afterward Shaggy used to run away form me when lunch break started. Later I tried this on many of my other friends too. Once I tired it on Tridib's head and then I made him run behind me all around our main building (he was soooooooooo angry for that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and finally he caught me).

One of my peculiar habits was (note that "was", coz I've got rid of this habit) to stretch legs and hands while sitting in class. And I used to eat a lot in class (coz I had a big appetite ……. now a days it has decreased a bit). A combination of this two took me in a bit of worried situation one day. It was the last period before lunch and as usual I was eating my daily quota (an apple) in the class (in those days I used to do this regularly). Sriparna ma'am (I'm not sure about her name ……………. I'm not very good in remembering names ……………. but let me tell you one thing, she was very cute :):):) ) was taking our statistics class. With a piece of apple in my hand I suddenly stretched my hands and she spotted the apple in my hand and asked me what it is. I hade to tell her ……………………. but surprisingly instead of punishing me for this she said "have u taken any solid food? You should not eat any fruit in empty stomach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Many teachers caught me eating in the class. The list is quite big. Samik sir, Amit sir, Jotirmoy sir ………………………………Jotirmoy sir never charged me in the class though . Later when I asked him if he ever noticed me eating during his class and he said yes:O:O:O. Even we (Deepannita and me) managed treat from Amit sir (for the whole class). The occasion was his marriage. Now Jotirmoy is is in the pipeline for the same reason - treat and the occasion is also same (but with slight difference ………. in this case we want the treat in advance).

I guess I have another very bad reputation in friend circle. I started many rumors about personal relations. Take the case of Suto-Shaggy or Mashi-17. I was behind all these rumors. But none of those ended well. And neither did my love life. Guess I could not find the right person for myself to go forward. Love can be the best or worst thing that can happen to anybody. If best, a new horizon comes out. And if worst ………………… that's where the tough part comes, "politics" And the sad thing is that I have seen more politics than good in case of love and in some of my friends' case too. Politics is the ugliest, dirtiest and most valueless thing in life, but it can not be avoided at any cost. The sad thing is that in a very good group if the number of members becomes more than 2 politics starts. In some cases it may not be so prominent but it's always there. And in these 4 years I can surely say that I have learned a lot about love-politics. After hearing all this, one of my friend (not form my college) once said "alas you missed the most tricky thing in love ……………. i.e how to propose a girl" and he said two very interesting ways (what it is ……… is up to you guys to decide) of proposing a girl. He said either say "I wanna see you as my grandchildren's grandmother" (because according to him girls can not decline matters regarding children) or you say "I wanna f**k you" (because according to him proposing a girl in some cases are like bargaining while buying something form footpath-shops, and in such cases if u go for the extreme i.e f**k can maximum be brought down to love but not less than that ……………………… :O ). Frankly I never tried these ways (actually I did not have the chance to do so ……….: P).

But whatever may be have happened I would like to thank all my friends and enemies (I guess I don't have many though). These people really helped to grow up …………. to become a man from a school boy. And I think in this context my enemies and not so close people played grater role than my friends. Though this journey was not so sweet but was very interesting.
