Anecdotes of the First Yr at KCM

Here are some anecdotes from the first year at KCM.

  • Well no memoir of mine would be complete without the mention of the time when I sold my entire first semester notes for twenty five hundred. Still can’t get over the fact.
  • Oh yeh n tht time after the finals of the first semester our class was really pumped up abt complaining, I think someone did write a letter to the Dean. After all we had heard abt KU, we were really disappointed with the level of question in the end semester and actually complained abt exams being too easy. Am so glad they didn’t listen to us or else we would be dead by now. Still makes me laugh just thinking abt it, I mean how stupid can one get of all the thing in the world to complain abt.
  • Well since we r in the topic many people of tht era would remember the crooked finger. Yeh tht of CP sir and his eccentric ways. Tht open book exam he gave us really infuriated the BBA guys and then walking out of an exam taken by the great Bishnu Sir himself. As far as my memory serves me right, we were the only batch to get away after staging a walkout on Bishnu Sir’s exam. I mean the exam was taken by Bishnu and checked by him, I got one of the highest marks in class. The highest was 10/100. the lowest u guessed it 0/100.

Finally It's here

Long time. Well haven’t written much lately. It’s not that I don’t have the zeal to write or cause of the lack of the material. It’s just that haven’t had tht much of a time n whatever I had went into being lazy or reading some books.

This time around I have decided to write abt my past for a change. Got this gr8 idea from one of the junior girl. She wanted to write my biography so just making her job easier by starting it off with some material for her.

This one would be about my life at KCM so tht’s the last 4 yrs in the making. To be frank I had never heard abt KCM. My sister got the form for me along with hers and when ppl told me abt it, I didn’t have any hopes of getting into it. Well my frnds would know why. I am definitely not the studious kind. So long, I had Bishnu, CP and Binay during the interview and the GD was the real charm with me and Riyaz fighting it over for the top honors. Life at KCM started off as any normal thing, a little anxious, a little fear at the Orientation. Two days of grueling orientation a couple of new friends and into the college. I remember our orientation fell on my birthday and believe me Bishnu Sir first thing in the morning is not the best present one can get if you know what I mean.

Early morning classes, after class breaks 4 u know wht. Me, Aashish and Brajesh yeh brajesh, when he first joined he was a good friend and then you know what he did stuck us with a over hundred bill for all his cold drinks and goes off to sit with the girls. I mean he drops us like hot potatoes for girls. There was this small incident I remember, Kailash’s Sir had the second class of the day and some of we guys had gone out after the first class and were a little late and guess what he locked the room from inside. It was a great party at Amit’s that day. Oh how I miss those times. Amit’s room cramming for exams. Life went on and so did the semesters, a few hiccups along the way until it was time to move to the new building. Wow it’s difficult writing a memoir. The rest will come in time. Am feeling really sleepy. Next I’ll be writing about meeting Pavan and the wonderful friendship thereafter.

Havn't updated for a long time

well well it's been long tht i havn't updated my blog....been busy with work and stuff...i know tht's no excuse to not write...casue one keeps a blog because it helps busy people keep their thought in check. anywz

the last week has been a real hectic one. been working on 4 simultaneous project. havn't had time to take a break. well guess what. thursday i was busy working (Actually was stuck with a problem for over an hour) and the office boy comes with a red rose and a card and gives it to me. i was in a state of shock for a sec cause if u know me u would know tht when in a problem i have no idea wht goes around. anywz by the time i was back everyone in office had gone oohhhhhh!! u know how people go. well there she was outside the office waiting for me. it came as quite a shock. i didn't know y she had come cause just in the morning i had talked with her on the phone and also we had sort of broken up. or at least i had told her my intension of breaking up. then she told me she doesn't want to break up. and will not let it happen.

strange! even i thought so. people can't bear me for a continous 5 min and here she was after 3 months and still wanting to bear me more. I don't know. This is not working out for me and i can't seem to explain it to her. All the love thing is fine but no body can force it to work. We can try and believe me god I tried. I still do love her but still it does not work out for me. I feel I am in chains. I guess I am made to be a free machine working all the time. As long as I am doing something I am fine but as soon as I have to sit and do nothing it seems a total waste of time and I start getting irritated. Even I need a break once in a while but tht break has to be on my terms.
Life is complicated as it is without all this love thing making it complicated still.

All my life I wanted to truly fall in love and when I did it just doesn't seem right. Ekta says maybe it's not love but just an infatuation. Well there could be it's possibilities too. Whatever it is I am not ready yet for it. I still need more time with me and my work and my career. Right now that's the only thing I want to be thinking about. But I still have no idea how can I get it accross her. She just doen't seem to understand. Well will forcing it make it work. I don't know. She wants to try that. I am at my wits end. You try.

Life has been good over the couple of weeks besides this one matter.
