A Journey of 7.5 Months

The journey started with some unique ‘rotunda sessions’, convent like rules and useful or somewhat painful ( obviously not physical) tasks( sometimes weird also) . The journey experiences a halt today ( I wont say it is over) with love, emotion, admiration and tears.

The 1st station offered the buddy sessions, buddy dinners. Now, is the time to give some gifts with some mesmerising memories to you buddies.

The next station came with the initiation of the budding manager building course (the actual reason to board the train), getting tips, helps, suggestions, old papers, slides, assignments.

This journey sometimes changed the taste of some unpalatable foods. The midnight chats, the boys` night at boys hostel ( upss, I never witnessed it), a bit of romance, a lot of learning and guidance ………….. and two important junctions disguised in two memorable tour on the lap of the nature (Jog falls and Kemmanagundi).

Now, when you look behind, each of your co-passengers has already left or leaving shortly, the dining hall does not resonate with some familiar noise. There are lesser number of chairs in the triangle, the love lane does not experience the intimacy of few familiar couples. Firoz bhai has stopped credit sales, Raghu bhai prepares lesser number of plates of maggi everyday, Bhuti Sir observes an almost vacant volley ball court.

From now…….. the dance floor will shake itself with some new tunes ( it never got bored with ‘sutta’ or ‘pyaar hum e kis mor pe le aaya’ ), The recreation room will not vibrate with some familiar yelling, the culturals will miss one mesmerising singer, the man with always fine-tuned strings, few male Shakiras and female Prabhu Devas…..


Because your co-passengers have reached their destinations.
