first blog in evenin i guess...

just returned home from college n well - the Image Processing viva had turned out good...Princy himself was at the chair along with another guy who resembled Chakravarthy from Satya n well - gave the say to Adu in most of the cases...my viva lasted for juz around 10 min...thanx to the gals along wid me who well, dint know that da height of an image is measured in pixels...i was wonderon what da hell was wrong with them...

spend the rest of the day wid my best friend...some real nice talks over a long lunch (well it was her eatin slowly as usual - she'll kill me if she reads dis)...went back to college only to realize that da orals day aft tomm wud mostly be postponed coz of the election scenario...left at 5 n well - found myself in da bus with my English teacher from school...another for whom i was like the 'fav' student...moreover i had scored the highest in her subject at da Goa Board...the meeting reminded me of those days once again - the busy mornin - the tears in my dad's eyes...shakin hands and distributing pedaas - well the remanin day had gone in that itself - in a couple of days itself i had become top notch famous in Goa i guess...aaaah - welll...those were the TIMES!!!

I had a nice talk wid the teacher all the way...she seemed interested to hear dat i had resumed the habit of readin...n asked me how i get time for it - to which i bragged - 'i have to the best of the time available- n have to FIND time'...she wud be leavin for Germany in a few days to meet her son...so i wished her the best for her journey...

wished i cud step into my school shoes again for once - as life was gonna be hard now...once i got into the corporate world - wud be losin much of the 'happy-go-lucky'
part of myself n turnin into the more serious guy - sob! dont wanna do dat...but work, MBA preps and varrrious otha responsibilities mite push me to the edge...
It seemed all da more peculiar though...Goa was sort of wavin me a slow goodbye...as though it knew i was gonna leave soon - as i was meetin all da people i cud have missed meetin bfore i left...like the teacher today wfor example whom i wudnt have met as she had already retired...also manny other friends who somehow managed to bump into me even though the others hadnt heard of them...strange huh?

boy o boy - da corporate world - am i waitin for it NOW!!!!

'memory blast' exams end for now...

da last glass of 'rasna' drunk for da nite...n da last chat window closed- me only wid my blog for today now...i'm already into the nexy day - but peeped in to rite bout the end of the Semester 8 theory exams...

'memory blast' coz well - dese exams involve no actualy application of stuff - just remember and vomit in paper...so wat is the use? i for one did one subject well this time- coz i think i understood it well and have started likin it - Image Processing..dint know i will like it though...howeva looks like dis is the only electronic signals lesson i shall be likin...regardless of whether the beauty queen from college 'Natasha' was there to teach it or da old man 'Adu'(princy for those who dont know)...

Image Processing was today - n well it was a nice paper - set by Adu itself..so guess all went accordingly well - da think to post was bout the post plans- went so bluddy fast tat i had to catch a breath...decided last minute for Bunty and Babli - aftnoon show...so there we were..movie was total timepass and doesnt make sense at all..so it isnt at all worth wastin ur time n money in it ...Big B isnt so good but chemistry betn Abhishek and Rani is cool...rani looks reallllll cute tooo...

da post 8 pm was one of my dearest friend= Raghu's phone aft a real long time really..chatted for long...he too apparently wanted to talk a lot...

closing down for today...

Alvidaa PCCE...

does the title of the post give way to somethin? naaaaahh...its not that i am actually leavin da college now itself - but wanna brag a bit bout the hop which our class itself hosted for the farewell for our batch at PCCE...

happened yest..still da faces of friends and mates are fresh in mind...a grand farewell hosted by our juniors - followed by the hop which was hosted by our class - BE Computers. Thinkin bout it makes me wonder dat yeah well - i gotto write a lot...so much happened n so fast since last week - discussions on how the farewell shud be n whether we can arrange for the hop....but of course da nitty with of Mangirish's mind cant be matched...once he makes up his brains regardin somethin no one can have a say rite? The rumour of the hop was soon ON....of course along with this was the idea bout wearin a suit for the farewell....gosh i know me wud look like a clown n well..hadnt ever thought of wearin it but yeah...friends managed to convince and well Pramesh n some of the others did have these weird ideas in their mind rite from the start...

Borrowed the suit from one of the sons of Dad's close friend...ahem..well i dint look dat baaaad too...5th may was up..was to head in da car to college...mornin jampacked with errands regardin the arrangements of the hop as well as a movie- SRK n Johar Productions Kaal which we managed to fit in somehow...got to Mangirish's house and puffed up perfume all over n there all of us were - lookin as handsome as ever...there was a surprise awaitin me at the hop though - 95 percent of the boys had turned up with suits...n of course the gals with sarees lookin real nice...the farewell was a BIG BLASTT and my sincere thanx to our juniors...esp Roma, Reema, Ralston and Liz Anne. There was a cake cutting ceremony, several contests, we had special sheets to write bout each other which we cud take home then ie each one take his own...another surprise that me n mah close friend was chosen as the best couple for da evenin...evrythin was perfectly arranged - rite up to the final Mr and Miss Computers prizes which Hrishikesh and Snehal bagged...

Da farewell dun...we were off to the hop aft a quick change (ahem in the college corridors)...now this was somethin which had been long planned and i can say was a grand success due to the efforts of the four main guys - Samson for his SUPERB deejaying and music, Preston and Braulio for the arrangements and of course dear Mangirish who takes the overall credit...we really danced like mad...at least i did and i noticed dat the rarest people had a great time too...was a treat to watch balls dancin...n of course his matchmate(our creation of course) laksha doin the jhatka dancin...Malvika, Phanikar for his amazing pelvic thursts, n all the others had a great time...Sam had seen to it that evryone gets their fill of the hop - so had planned allll kinda music...includin hip-hop, rock, trance, indi pop, slow etc etc etc...BE Computers was rockin it out...!!

I know i will neva be able to fget the day - esp when Neha (my esteemed bench partner) and the study geek had stayed the full day, when Anay and Pashmin danced again - n it was nice to see them do so...n of course all the zealous faces of tmy friends...buddies for all the great times we had had in the last 3 years...all the picnics, hops, get togethers - the plethora of college activities was comin to an end - and what an end it was....gleamin with the soulful melody of KK's Pal...and me watchin each one as they hugged each other n waved their last goodbyes..werent exactly last as we still had the dreaded exams to go..but we knew we wud neva be able to enjoy like this...eva again...

for once i shud be sayin long live BE Computers - PCCE batch of 2004...!!

end of engg college days...

gosh havent seen u from quite a while blog - have i? even when India lost to Pak in tat pathetic final i dint find it interestin enugh to give my own view of the mess...coz maybe it wasnt kinda necessary...they got the full thing and are out searchin for a good coach for themselves...

party time today - n nostalgia time too...officially, we are out of Engineering college, havin finished our 8th sem engg...with only the exams to go now..(n ahem!- of course the remains of the project work including the docs etc)...how was the last day? poocho mat...class mein last day to ho gaya...dat was wednesday...when we were out stalkin the class for every but of chalk piece to throw on each other...n of course despite all grumbling managed to catch a last bit of the last lecture of the semester in multimedia systems...(woh to hona hi tha)..n well then that day saw its end...

today? well fine - the last internal test we wud have ever answered - and of course a bit of work on the project..a lot of it in fact...(somehow i saw myself doin a lot too today)...lekin chalk pieces aaj nahin miley - to kya hua??? paper balls se kaam chalaana padaa...i think the lab was a place to see with all the paper balls flyin all around - me too jumpin around likea kid throwin balls on my friends and showerin them sometimes...surely no one must have done this ever bfore in da history of PCCE...n no one will too...the lab assistant too got a few of them on him and dat was indeed a funny sight...all the more the day ended on a great note...

To think widely, will i miss college days? naah - not this college - but the friends..aah yes...they have really been a great treasure...n i will treasure all my friends i have gained here always...keepin somethin from u for now blog..a new relationship which appears to be struck up, but hasnt flowered as yet...so will update ya later on it...more nostalgia on the farewell day in another 3 days if i get to edit u that time - till then...ciao...!!
