SPEED IS THE NAME OF LIFE!!!

So,now that i consider myself partially in tune with the external stimulus,its been a week since chennai has become my abode ,i would pen down some of the changes. The journey from college to job started with an early morning flight - lost in the clouds blue and white,i was wondering how long will these colours and the beauty around would still keep on fascinating me,now that we would be sitting all throughout the day before PCs,or our playing cards,i must say..:) !!playing cards that will help us interact , learn and earn- the dire needs of a person in today's competitive environment!! But it has been good so far- and i hope it will be like this only!! Keeping aside all physical considerations and adjustments as far as shifting from north to south is concerned, i liked the way the things have turned up.Interacting with people from different places has been a real treat- leaving behind all language constraints and other inhibitions, making new friends and getting to learn the native language and yea,coping up with the negotiation process with the autowallas in chennai, all has become a part of daily funfilled adventures that we come through!! Umm...yeah, the transition from college to job has been an ubrupt and surprising one,what with everyday bringing into its folds some myths and misconceptions (read salaries ;) ) that we had been holding onto, and some more tasks to be allottedto us, new ventures to look forward to and some moments of happiness that being in action holds with it .Yeah, life is moving on a faster track, with every blind turn leading to a new world, new insights,new people to meet and many new experiences.Training sessions, conversations with the professionals,maintainin g professional etiquette, managing time , meeting new people,travelling - many things have changed,the way we used to behave in college, the "nobody cares " attitude , it was fun being in college.But, this change has also been a welcome one, the feel of "everthing matters ", displaying professional etiquette,the feeling of earning money, the feel of being mature enough to become a part of a leading organisation- it all has lead to a new view towards life, introduced us to a new world,a materalistic one must say, because here,there is no time- no time to think about things of past, no time to grumble, no time to have any hard feelings, no time to think twice...the reality is action , simply putting into words , doing whatever u feel even if it is okay or not. Because the time machine is not going to wait for you, so to avoid being left behind, just get going , dare to dream and dare to do.......

THE REVERIE UNFOLDS.....2K3 dons the bid adieu cap!!

This blog is certainly about fulfilling a promise that i made to a friend that i will be blogging about one of the best days of my college life, the GT(read get together) that marked the end of 4 yrs into making..making up of true engineers, with all those qualitise of managing things right at the last moment, be it projects, vivas and exams,anything may come,but our batch rather our class has been the best example of being on the track at the last possible moment,rising up finally from deep slumber everytime and the best part being that,things fall in place everytime and rather everybody gets a gud share in terms of marks or any grades for that matter.Thank the system this time for its laxativeness,we ahve all completed 4 big yrs of handling thngs on the verge of just failing to manage them,and we have always been successful...so,this has been the magic of murthal, a place where 4 yrs meant adjusting ourselves in tune with the silent and slow paced life that it offered, close to nature and beauty,with those peacocks and b'ful sounds of birds , it really felt good to be at a place like that.



Umm..talking about murthal would take many blogs,what i wish to write is about the memorable GT,which took place on 26th may, one day after our exams ended.It started with simple his and hellos with the ppl around, but nobody knew that it would turn out to be such a b'ful and lively experience.What followed is a game of asking ques from guys and some witty answers that set the mood. With only 30 ppl arnd,the ambience was gr8 and everybdy looked comfy and easy going.What followed next was unlimited jam session,although DJ was not that gud,but still the spirits played the part.Frequent clicks by digicams, music and dancing arnd really made evryone arnd happy.And then food...After a while, came the time for dedications...and flowed in some real feelings of that being our last GT together and the flow of thoughts like these made their way into minds of many,m sure...I did my bit with dedications to the class,varun (read a gud frnd) read a Bful poem about college life at murthal,where he took us all into a flashback of how each year saw tremendous changes in us and how things changed in a matter of just 4 years....and the poem was really very very gud indeed!!And then dedications ended,to be followed by songs by a grp of frnds, ppl who had tried their hand at proposing but were a bit unlucky, and they had photos together and sang some songs related to the theme ....and it soon turned out to be a start of the singing session,where we sang old songs in grps, and some college songs like summer of 69 and purani jeans,ye dosti,yaaron ....and then,again a photo session drifted away the feel of being away very soon again!!



And then,a jam session with nursery rhymes as the music,was real fun, i say..u cud see ppl acting on rhymes like lakdi ki kaathi and so on....a day i would not forget for sure..and then,after a long jam session,we finally retreated to lazying around outside and followed a nice game of antakshari...i was not an active member though..:)



but it was fun...



and we really got together again for some more pics ..:)



The final countdown started next day.....



A signature ceremony and a souvenier signing one ,with some smiley balls being the platform for some gr8 memories we will be having of that b'ful day...And then few handshakes and pats on backs which were to be become the last reminder of us being together...and thus, rushed in some emotionally charged thoughts that have been doing the rounds till now and will do so for some more time to come, till we all develop new worlds around us, a new set of dreams, goals and adjust with some new people ,only to get attached emotionally to them and feel at the place.But those diaries ,those souveniers and endless memories of pranks, goofups,GTs, gossips, placement times,strikes,discussion sessions,college fests and many more things we did together will always make us remember the times when under the same roof ,we saw each day unfolding with it, new surprises and new adventures,sometimes bad,sometimes good....Yeah the memory remains and will never be gone....hats off to alma mater for bringing us all together and giving us full fledged 4 yrs ,now that we are carrying with us varied bunches of memories,gud and bad,that will be accompanying us for years to come.......
