1. Meeting Everybody in College

College is the meeting place for friends!! Nothing more than that! Except for the laminated paper which we call as Degree Certificate !

From hostel, college campus was a walkable distance. We always walked to college, even it was late to classes (we don't mind missing classes!!).

We were going to attend our first class in Engg.!! it was feeling great!!

As usual it was an intro class. Our lecturer got introduced to his students. Everybody busy memorizing the girls' name.

But nobody went near to them and got introduced themselves!! Boy! Shy or What?

We later found nobody was as beautiful as expected in an Engg college ;) Easy !

Ragging was a normal thing in any Engg. or Medical college.

We were terrified to go near college canteen. But one day ragging did happened.

I never had thought that it would be so embarrassing.They were just questions nothing more ! But still....

Seniors called us near canteen. The ragging scene began:

we said "Hi"
they said "call us sir! dont you respect your seniors? Which branch?"
"Sir, computers"
"hmmmm, tell me your % in pre-university and ur sex together"
"sir, 86% male!"

Seniors began laughing hysterically and asked "what about the rest?" and again started laughing.

Next one was truely awkward(close your eyes and ears!!):

"Good hair ! which shampoo do u apply?"
wearing a smile, "Sir,clinic plus."
"And to your head?!!"

What the hell! This was truely embarrassing!

We had put down our head while they were laughing loudly. But victim(!) was furious and was staring at him. Suddenly senior shot at her,

"Staring? Eh?"
"..."
"Here",giving his id said," take my id and you can complain to princi!".Who had all that courage??

Just prayed to god asking to make them leave! "UUF!"

In our class of 60 members,some got only good marks,some only enjoyed and some enoyed their lives and got good marks.

We belonged to second category!! We just enjoyed our lives and cared a shit about our marks sheets!!

It was all well after a welcome party. But our bad days started from the day internal tests date were announced.

We wanted to enjoy our college days but these tests and practices would not just allow us.

Getting below average marks and sometimes averages in tests, we continued our journey of our engineering life.
