My Engineering life started on 2nd August 2004..that day was 1st visit to my engineering class...was quite boring....I came from the Naval family environment and i have seen people of all kinds there but here in college what i saw was too odd..I saw here different kinds of people everywhere..they were conservative, mean, orthodox, mutiny and lots more, but there were some nice people around there...Thats hw the college people were..coming to college was not very big and as i was coming first time to in any institution after schools, i felt my college too big and enjoyable...
My first year, in college was horrible the seniors fear, the home sickness and everything that a student can feel in his first year, i felt all of that...Earlier i was der in Hostel Sangama where the ragging to juniors was famous in all over that area..but my luck somehow i managed myself to the first year student hostel in Chromepet and der came the fun...we enjoyed a lot there..it was fun time der, we were not restricted for anything except some formal rules, and which i think was meant to be broken and it happened in the same way...me and my friends were on the top of the hostel rooms..we were altogether seven people (Me, Anirudh, Deepak, Rohit, Lappi, Harish) out there and everyone had a great fun in that room..and in weekends on friday we use to go back home and come back on sunday evening...The whole two semesters we did that, we never let a chance to go back home anytime.... the college was quite boring that year..nothing to do..just some bundles of friends and some narrow minded people who dont want to mingle with anyone...But, as it was an introductory year i met new people from every parts of India..i met people from Andhra, Kerela, Bengali's, North easterns, Kashmiris, north indians, Bihari, Jharkhandi, Punjabi, Haryanis and ofcourse, the Tamilians and everytime whenever we chat with each other, we always ends up in some kind of controversial debates as everyone express their views on differnt things and never anyone thought matched with each other so this leads to all that i mentioned earlier....Then comes the ragging, frankly i was ragged but not that much..in name of ragging, i was questioned, introduction, some asked me to sing and thats it..nothing more than that....In exams i did well in my first year..Didnt studied hard..so that in first semester i got one year and tht too i think must have not got that result..in second due to my mischief act i got two arrears....So, atlast before end of theyear, My dad got transfered to Mumbai, Navy Nagar and he shifted there with my whole family which resulted in end of my home visiting in weekends..After the exams i stayed there for three days in which one day i spent at Deepak's Home in Arakkonam and then i came to Mumbai..this year i go in touch with many people but i think there some good people whose name i should mention here they were..Lashmipathy, Rohit, Anirudh, Deepak, Snehasish, Jitender, Sukanto, Rakesh and many more.....JPG)
The Holidays ended up and I returned back to Chennai, for my third year of college..it was as usual the hostel life..we got more free than last year even the junior's juniors came to the hostel..We were bounded to nothing..In college there also things didntdidnt became a hard drinker but by the time I became a regular smoker..I went to many places this year with my girlfriend..like Pondicherry, Mahabalipuram and almost every places in Chennai..Got myself too much in that..The year was even saddest of all..I lost many things which I think, I cant describe here..then semester leave came up and I went back to my parents in Mumbai...
Then came the last year of college..This time I didnt continued staying in hostel..We got ourself a room in camp road..we were altogether seven people in that room(me, Suman, Sekhar, Rohit, Snehasish, Deepak & Sudhir)..we got ourself a room on the first floor of a house with no owner was staying with us..and i think this was the most unforgettable year of my life..Just seven people in a house and with no one to watch out us..We started cooking food for ourselves in the starting month but then some of us started moving out for the food..We never studied in that room either we use to roam outside, we sit on computer, we watch tv, smoke, drink and lot more thing we did..We even went to Pondicherry once by booking a car...I went to Mysore twice that year once in August and another time on December..In semester leaves we all went back to our places except Suman, Sudhir & Deepak..In college, life was very smoothly going..Our department teachers gave all the important questions before the exams were started..I was having no arrears and went on clearing the seventh semester with an ease..Then came the eighth semester, we all were having burden of getting placed in some company placement but except Suman & Sekhar no one made it i our room..That semester we just had classes for two days in week that too half day...I along with my two friends(Anirudh & Pranay) went to Nellore's Krishnapatnam Port for our project..so i spent 60% of my time of that semester in Nellore itself..In between I went once again to Mysore and I would have never thought that it will be my last visit to Mysore for that specific work...The last semester exams dates came on head and before that we got 15 days leave...We made Holi festival in grand way that year, the last Holi of engineering..Then the practical exams and exams came up...The papers were not that much tough and everyone wrote well..Hence, engineering life ended up here, except for some people who either got year back due to lack of attendance/poor academic performance or who were carrying arrears after the exams were done..Then it was the time to say goodbye to everyone..Those who got placed we were waiting for their call and those who didnt got, they started packing their luggage to go back home..In our room Sekhar was the first one to leave, then Suman, after that Snehasish, then Sudhir, after him to follow was Deepak..Rohit booked himself a new room in Pallikaranai along with a new student Laxman who was going to start his Engineering life in Sairam Engineering college..Then Rohit too went home for one month..Snehasish got a job in Nokia but didnt last there for too many days and left the job and he too went to Andaman...I spent my final two weeks in a friend room and after doing my work, I too came back home...In all ways the engineering life ended perhaps the only thing was left was to collect our degree certificates..We all became Engineers and I guess we all can never forget our engineering life in our whole lifetime and I guess that life will never come back again...........................
