Missing those good old College days - Memories
Greetings! Wishing all read.cash members a happy evening.
When you get to meet an old friend of yours or if you happen to get a message from a close friend after a gap of several years, our mind easily switches to the past fruitful days .
Long lost are those golden days. But those days are still evergreen in all our my mind. If there was a wish, I definitely would love to go back to those lovely days.
Some thoughts are painful while some are long lasting memories. We learnt many things fron this phase of life. Togetherness of being with friends, some for our good and some for bad, the adventurous to & fro bus journey, the great lessons we learnt, the happiness, the great fun, the inevitable escape from the department Heads, being late for which we were punished, the corridors which was our meeting place during the breaks, the one hour lunch break where we meet in the gallery to gossip, the canteen and it's hot cardomom tea & samosas...all these mind blowing thoughts....
We were a group of eight friends in school. Always together having fun and making fun of others. We were given names like arrogant, stubborn, good for nothing .....the list goes on. Once we conpleted our schooling our hunt we began for college. As all of us are commerce students we preferred either commerce or business stream.
Our hunt for good colleges started. Finally we got settled in one of the best colleges but all of us were in different branches. But together we went and came. It was a 1 hr 45min journey from our home.
We travelled in two buses to reach our destination. The ticket collector in the bus did not like us as we used to shout and talk, disturbing the other passengers in the bus. When he saw us getting into the bus he used to give a stare which meant oh! headaches are in. We used to have fun by sitting in the last lengthy seat. But as and when time went by he understood we were not as bad as expected. Because when one of us were missing he used to enquire - what happened to your other friend? When looking back I really feel guilty because today when I travel by bus I can understand the difficulties faced by the passengers.
When in class we had another group and we made it a point to bunk classes once a while. Two of our college mates had their own car, which was a blessing when we bunked classes. Our college security was quite strict, once we get into the campus we cannot go out without a permission letter from our HOD. The college had a broken wall on the rear end which made our exit easy, but rather risky.
In one such adventure we were caught by our Head of the Department. But that bunking was a sincere one. The story in short. I wanted to get a medicine for thyroid which is not available in my place. So me and my other two friends decided to attend the class an hour late on the proposed day. Unfortunately the expected time took more than 2 hrs. So after the purchase we decided to go home. As we were walking alongside the pedestrian our HOD got a glimpse of us from the Bus she was traveling. The very next day we were asked to report to her before getting into the classroom. As we were not in the blacklist she left us, after a warning. The funny fact about this was each time we skipped the classroom for movies, outing etc. we were not got caught but when we went out for some important purpose we were caught red handed😃. This is what you call fate.
These are just few memories that I was reminded when I met an old friend after years. To cherish those memories are part of our life.
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Thanking my Sponsors, readers and upvoters and with the start of a new week, let's expect something good and beautiful.
