"We meet to create memories, we part to preserve them"
well this is a very good line that i read in my friends slambook. And probably the line that joins anybody back to all the good people he or she has ever met.
Well around two years back completing my 10th with a high determination and a zeal to excel i landed at this place Allen Career Institute in kota....the well known educational hub 4 IIT and premedical aspirants with high expectations upon my shoulders and a bit of numbness of leaving home all together i had to get started to make up my life and this is the same for any1 who comes up here. I did leave back my friends my schoolmates unknown to the fact of what sort of a company i fall into in this new land.
The initial enthusiasm didnt leave any vacancies for a few weeks but slowly it lowered and rose the will of making new friends in this new place &............for an introvert person this had no ease. Eventually things needed to be changed ( along time) and i came across different students from different parts of the country different cultures, different accents, different behaviours, but a similar aim. Daily i increased contacts with those who studied along with me in the institute.We talked about different things and found that the things happening aorund were quiet similar there are similar type of teachers ewhere similar lectures by them similar scoldings and ya even similar rewards people had the same thinking ewhere so overall the nation had the same brain but changed the getup. And so childishly each of us tried to convince others that he belonged to a better or developed city and eventually we learnt that how much was there actually at the places where we had been living for so long and had never cherished it before.
Friends through friends and more friends helping each other with doubts in the class, to bargaining in the markets started takin away the feeling of our distance from our relatives and enjoyin the group of friends formed here all knowing that we all are here on the same boat and it is better to row it in the same direction. And then my friends list started filling pages......PB, AC, SV, NV, NS, AC2,AG,KL,AR,SJ,AG,PT,VG,AG,SC,PC,JS,AR,........................................................
......and so did the class notes.:-)
Days passed we gave tests some did get depressed sometimes so by joking it away with him or just cheering him up in someother way others got him back on track. We played together, studied 2gether, ate 2gether and enjoyed many different things on even the rarest of an occasion to get back some energy to rejuvinate our minds to work on our main track.
From walkin out for tea at 3 ( late night or early mornin whatever u call it) to the cricket matches in the corridors of our house( leading 2 a speach from the landlords) from making maggi( or whatever we knew how to cook) to having a huge discussion on topics that confussed us from waking up each other in the morning to the nsp till night we friends used to be together.
We celebrated birthdays ( probably one thing which none of those with me in kota can forget) pouring anything that comes in ur hands on the lucky guy and giving him some good birthday bumps. though i wouldnt have actually written many things of the fun we had but now we all are away heading towards our destiny but on different tracks and all that are left are those lovely memories and a wish to meet those good friends back and as soon as possible..
