Memoirs of my college life..

Four long years in NIT Trichy have seen a vivid transformation in me from an apprehensive, hesitant individual to an expressive, confident one. These years have helped me to form a perspective of various things and have overall shaped my personality (good or bad). Here is a recollection of things that happened in my life through these years followed up with a thanksgiving to every single thing that had helped me during my stay in NITT…

First year: The foray into the unknown world combined with the added ‘freedom’ was challenging; New friends, exposure to new cultures, myriad of clubs, variety of girls, different preparation for exams, excellent roommates, frequent parties, movies, Mr.Agate distinction, murder in college, being elected as Hostel Rep, supposed preparation for IIT, new mobilephone, being hooked into table tennis, horrible mess food, satisfying GPAs, many one side crushes, the year was over in a flash.

Second year: The entry into a new department, terrifying one at that. New roommates, out of touch with northees, contact with girls, events for schools as part of club work, school juniors entering to find nice receptive seniors (pun intended!), induction into college hockey team, Ruby cup, various getups being tried, usage of BITs, horrifying GPA, BAD(?!) habits, finding new close friends, various night shows in trical audi. Well was a tough year but at the end I might have settled; for it.

Third year: New close friends, new impressive hostel, decent food, class trip, decent GPAs, more responsibility in club, focus on career, Campus placement course, CAT preparation, new set of school juniors, gaining popularity, DAV team for Ruby cup, responsibilities in events like Pragyan and Festember, getups at their best, product design course, life was indeed fun-filled.

Final year: President of Wisdom club, placement in Oracle, CAT preparation and the exam itself, becoming a blogger, new friend in life (eventually girl friend), CPCs for juniors, XAT and interview, new set of school juniors, death of a junior, senti time, roaming the city with girlfriend, movies, bus journeys, trip to Ooty with friends, last set of getups, heights of popularity, Mr.Trendy sms poll winner, project work, driving license and passport, rem books, slam books, treats, BYE BYE to college, the year marks an end to the adventurous time I had experienced in NITT.

All the excitement, heartbreaks, responsibilities, acquaintances, knowledge and experiences have made me ready to face the corporate outside world as I step into it. I hereby thank all the following contributors to my stay in NITT:

My friends, roommates, wingmates, hostel, messwalas, ali uncle (AU), teachers (for passing me in every sem!), club’s staff advisors, juicy, icey, snacky(old one), dhabas, class reps, event coordinators, clubs, books and novels, coffee shops, Times of India, my old cycle, medical shop, State Bank ATM, pineapple akka, canteen, sportscentre, hockey team, clubmates, classmates, theatres in Trichy, bus servies of Trichy, FM stations in Trichy, Meridian, Azzez, my mob, owners of computers in hostel, Training and Placement Department, CIC reps, ICE dept, Barn hall, A2 hall, Trical Audi, school juniors, dept juniors, NITTfest, Pragyan, Festember, my shaving set, my fans and critics, the girls who rejected me, the girls I rejected, the girl who accepted me and finally you, readers of my blog… and to everything and everyone!!

The four years might have ended quickly but the memories of the wonderful time I had will never cease to exist in my mind. BYE BYE NITT!!! :(
