Kissa Kursi ka....

The election of Sidharth ( aka sid_bloke ) to the post of Zener president has inspired us,the common man, to stand for power...so now we have decided to go into Bihar Politics...i.e. coalation government...all of us are thinking of filing our nominations for president tomm....

The team...
Myself, Adi, Abhay, Pandeyji, Vishal, Vishrut Paras( kaka ), Govil... though we r still open to new members..

our funda..

15 ppl standing for the post..No serious campaigning lest we should win....will go to the audi debate..n question each other on things like..."why weren't u online yest??" or "tera cg mujhse zyaada kaise..." or "yeh teri t-shirt ka naya rang kasunsa hai..." or simply if somebody asks Adi a question, i will answer n vice versa...

All 15 of us will go to junior hostels for campaigning simultaneously n ask a junio "kiske liye vote karega??.."....if he says any one name...he is dead... :)


Our motto...

united we stand
divided we kick ass


...anyways this is just a plan... n here is a gud news.. BITS Pilani Goa Campus placed its first students today...Clinston and Arpit Shah in Nvidea..for a whooping 6.9 lpa....yoyoyo guys...n its Microsoft tomm...

The Guy next door....

(this is in no way related to the movie with a similar title n even the theme is not similar...so kindly don't expect anything like the movie here.....)

Well...to tell u as a matter of fact.."It is a known fact at BITS, Pilani-Goa Campus..that we were both born so that we could be enemies..He is alive so that he can piss me off..n vice versa..."

Unfortunately for both of us..we gt neighbouring rooms...though we were lucky enough that there is a gap n stairs between our rooms....

Well the story starts when this guy from next door comes n knocks on the door..this would be say like a week after we joined college...He wanted a disprin...( well with mini tests in the first sem...it was enough to cause any one a headache...) so I gave him a disprin...bt after some time realised he is a serial disprin eater (He gets tensed up near the exam time n takes a disprin like it is some sweet...(well...u might not have heard about the time this guy ate 4 disprins together n managed to stay alive...well..we kicked him hard though)...as a result has been warned by all of us n no body gives him a disprin now...in fact came to know last sem that he had gt a whole pack of disprin couriered frm home....(saala bas sudharega nahi...)

He is generally seen in hostel (thats real rarely..) in his trademark black shorts n full sleeve shirts, looking tense n running here n there... (nt putting up a pic..cause I promised him..).During the exams, he believes in not wasting any time walking to somebody's room to ask doubt..he literally RUNS...in the corridors...n has gt hurt too.. a lot of times..the most serious being last yr..the day before his birthday..(18th Nov...his b'day) when he had to get bandaged on his head...

And even his parents r worried that he gets so tense etc etc..n had called us too to tell us to take care of him...bt how do you tell them that finally he has found a girl to take care of him....We used to tease hima bout a girl he really liked..n used to get angry at us...bt he finally gt commited a few months ago( not with the same girl... ;) )..n celebrated four months of togetherness..last week on some date..(i just forgot the date...was it 8th...)

Well,thank god his priorities changed..or he would have been sitting in my room...biting my head off..over some issue or the other..however he now comes to my room only after 11pm..when the hostel gates close..n then kicks my door ( for no rhyme or reason) n moves on...He is the reason that we have fun on the dinner table..pulling his leg frm even the other side of the mess..if he is nt sitting with us..The one thing I don't understand abt him is that whenever somebody pulls his leg..he is bound to kick me...event though I am such an Innocent (notice..with a capital I) guy...

This pretty much sums up our story..trying to kill each other

This was just one of his side..the other one being the fact he is a very hard worker, dedicated, knows what he wants n gets it (including you know whom), a gr8 person to be with, you should just hear his brlliant ideas, his stram of achievements..being a MCSE...an enthu Forex (the M.Sc Economics Assoc) member, and also a member of ASCII.. (the not existent CS Assoc), part of the BITSAA team, Embryo team, BnB team, n Wall street club...etc n you know that this guys knows his stuff....
Well...will not praise more..or he is gonna kick me...

and in the end...after all the leg pulling, he got really pissed of n i had to make one promise to him...n here it is...

"I solemnly swear that I will not trouble my neighbour (won't name him..cause I promised him so..), will not pull his leg,talk about his past lovelife and lead him to my murder or his own suicide and use no names in my status msgs."

Signed Boxer

unfortunately...bad habits die hard..n i am back to pulling his leg..n his girlfriend bears it with a smile...( nt that she has any other choice..)..n he keeps kicking my door and giving out "SUPARI'S " for me to everyone he meets...and life continues...

Waah..kya khana tha....

Ohhk...no we didn't go to AnantAshram for someone's birthday treat...it was actually a gr8 meal in the mess( ob it wasn't Atish..).It was in the mess being run by Sharath Babu, who happens to be a BITSian+ IIM A...who then moved to start his food chain...FoodKing.

Well i had mentioned in my last post that a movie was being screened in the audi...well just before that we went for dinner...n wat amazing food...Chole Bhature, Veg biryani with raita...n custard to top it up...I must confess we have never had such gr8 food ever in my two years at BITS....

must have been a lucky day..however we couldn't catch Balu bhai for a treat..so we have to catch him tomm...bt today still turned out to b gr8....

Chalo...me going off to sleep..afterall after gr8 food...even BITSians feel drowsy...

cya..

Just another day....

Well woke up late this morning..( after all a free first hour (8-9 am) is just not in EEE'ite's timetable this sem..) n thats when i realized it was 15th August...Balu bhai's birthday n ya ya Independence day too...

Really looking forward fr Balu bhai's treat..bt thats later...

Right now its time to get ready n go for flag hosisting in front of the B-dome...(Getting ready in 10 min..thats just an engineer daily cup of tea@ BITS...however it started raining all of a sudden..n resulted in me reaching too early...(shit..could have slept for 10 more minutes...)...bt finally rain stopped n we had the flag hoisting n then moved into the audi for a cultural prog. by the faccha's..bt it was dir's speech before that...He started off with a standard "Dear isstudents" and lots of "Beeeeeeeeeeets Goa" in between..finally ended his speech in 15 min...

The culturals was gud..the juniors had worked hard...n finally came out at abt 12...

We all sat down at Nescafe after that n chatted for nearly two hours after that...( remember wat i had talked abt spending time wid frnds...)..had an uneventful lunch...came back to the room...

Have a movie in the evening in the audi...The legend of Bhagat Singh..have already seen that movie..bt will go again cause its so much fun just sitting wid frnds..talking amongst us..without caring for the movie...n of course pissing off the ppl sitting close to us...

So rite now..in between the events of the day i am thinking...are we really free??? as someboday asked us in the morning...thinking wat being free means to me...

Friendship Day...

"It's the friends you can call up at 4am that matter."

"Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end, but somewhere in the middle we've become best of friends."


Yesterday..5 August was friends day...gt a lot of msg's n scraps wishing me(the above two r a part of the lot that i recieved...n it got my thinking... it really nececcary to have a day to celebrate friends...or for that matter valentines day,mothers day, fathers day etc...
Spending time together even while working..me n shubham with nimit in the back n vishrut in the front.....


Isn't every moment that we spend with friends a celebration??

The times we spend together sleeping during lectures,bunking them,studying in library, watching movie in the audi, spending time like a vella at shop co, Monginis..or even eating dinner together is a party...a large n noisy one that is...
Its frnds who make life interesting n worth living...n i can say...just see us in the mess at meal times n you can make out..this is one of the best part of our day(..not the atish food dumbo..its the friends...) n we eagerly wait for this time....sadly though..it will end next year when we move on to PS II, bt till then the party is on....









Hope life continues likle this with all of us together... always n in the meantime..here is a quote i particularly liked...
"I don't remember how we happened to meet each other. I don't remember who got along with whom first. All I can remember is all of us together...always."
