I am missing all my friends and when usually somebody around me keeps on rambling about how they miss college and lecture bunks, movies, 12 am birthday parties, proxies and so on, I cannot seem to remember doing all of this! I simply cant! But, today is different! I got hold of a few home burned CD's while rummaging through the drawers and out of curiosity (after I glanced over the titles) I switched on the computer and put the first CD ever after so many years! Because of external hard drives, I realized I haven't used CD's in years! This one is dated Feb 2007, which means my second year of college. It has four folders titled Bollywood Day, Corporate Day, Traditional Day and Pri's (my BEST friend) B'day! I was trying to recollect as to when did I ever click pictures of these occasions when I remembered these are clicked by my friends and I have them as a backup! I am so happy I saw these otherwise I would never have realized I miss my time in college as well. YES! With my friends! And, we did have lots of fun, our own moments of goofiness, and crazy stuff as well. This picture is probably proof of that!
This was during one of the above mentioned day's in college, when we decided to get hold of any person passing by the canteen (in the background) and talk with them for five minutes. And, it turned out I was the first! So, the moment we came around the canteen we saw this person looking around and my friends decided this was the person I had to talk with. I almost chickened out until my friends said This or a treat to all at McDonald's and I had to do it then. I cannot remember the entire conversation except asking what he did for a living and he replied that he was a Physicist! Though I remember discussing about Lise Meitner and her work (because I had recently read her biography then). Sometime during our chat, my friends clicked this picture. Amazing how all those memories of that sunny day and us came to me in a flash.
Great times with some of the most wonderful people I've ever met! Alas! It took me some CD's to remember that time. Still, never too late!
