Yes, I would call it the end of an era. My
life was like that. I have seen the best and the worst of me in this four years
of glorious journey. Yes, you heard it right four years, around 1460 days and
approximately 35000 hours!
Yes
I have calculated every hour, because I have lived them or should I say, I
survived them as constantly reminded by the society that I am doing it
.
The journey called "Engineering".
It
feels so nostalgic now. The place where I feel caged off would soon be closed
for me, freeing me forever, letting me go where I want to. A room bigger than
or equal to an auditorium will soon be replaced by our juniors and we all be
leaving that forever.
Those thousand numbers of pages I wrote for
the so called assignments to complete. Yeah I will miss them. I won't miss the
assignment... Nah! I would miss the fun behind writing them. Making the
assignment a précis writing, always writing the one-third :P
There were 120 students in my batch and I
came to know them well in my final year of engineering.
Well that’s how my engineering completed,
bunking as much classes as possible did.
Ahh! Yeah, how can I forget the bunk part,
the part for which colleges are made for. That canteen snacks, that looting of
the lunch boxes.
Hell
I will miss them.
That 8 war type semester exams from which 7
ended and I can proudly say that I survived all of them. That 3 hours paper and
the constant battle for those 23 marks starts, to cross the line of the back
loggers. Though for the ranker it never mattered because they always go for
the bulls’ eye.
It seems funny now, how I used to mug up
each every formula, even though I had no idea what's in it.
At
last the” GTU” (Gujarat technological university) I should change this name to
bluff master. When these people bring out the results, you never know whether
to cry for not scoring well or laugh because you passed an impossible subject.
And I bet that it happened to every one of us.
Everything feels so steady now.
“To the optimist, the glass is half full. To
the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as
big as it needs to be”.
CHEERS TO OUR NEW FUTURE!
PS-I got emotional writing this.
Truly, engineering bhava! :)
