The week that was

Jane Rubietta: Someone may have stolen your dream when it was young and fresh and you were innocent. Anger is natural. Grief is appropriate. Healing is mandatory. Restoration is possible

5 days of plain bliss,where nothing else mattered other than eating, sleeping and shopping. the very first day,With long hours wrapped under the bed sheet,literally refusing to get up from the comfy bed, i gave ma parents a big scare.What was i doing???well, NOTHING at all,finally i did pull up ma act together,got ma self some dose of fiction and some shopping high.Though i did miss some action in form of the academic tour for the semester,i didn't care or think about the sunny beaches of Goa or the fun.Everyday i woke up fresh as a daisy and off i went on a one women adventure.Occasionally i did slow down the thoughts focusing on the pain:What were ma friends doing in Goa at that time.But, it was nothing but a small bubble, which bursted and then disappeared into air.I was happy with ma self....the pampering,the let it loose attitude.These five days gave me enough room to think for ma self, something that i rarely do.It was an intellectual break and thankfully i was futile. Though i had some lows too last week,issues with people who seemingly took ma spirit on the wrong note.I know may be I'm wrong but,the reasoning seems so clear.I have a life and I'm living it for ma self not for the world to decide what I'm gonna do with it.
"YEH MERI LIFE HAI,MUJHE JEENE THO"

Translation:This is ma life,let me live it

Past:Friends

I get lost in the thoughts of ma existence and people are taken back by surprise.Its not just physical appearance that has changed but, deep down there are radical changes though the basic things remain same.I kind off got repelled today during the test hour by the fact that i could hate some one so badly.Believe me ,when i say the hatred is all for the right reasons.Whatever may be the reason, she was part of ma life until few months.I believe friends are people who not only stand by your side during the good times but, the bad times too. For, her it wasn't the case,all she cared about was the company, when she wanted to go somewhere, share the extra notes,go out,eat together for no one else was ready to be with her except US.She was never someone who you can call a friend.Iv always stood by her but, she seemed more concerned about her own reputation that sticking with us.That's when i started hating her still, i found it difficult to hate her for, its difficult to hate some one who was so close for all these years.After each passing day she makes me hate her more, every inch of her. I know i sound in human but the factors affecting the relation are irreversible. I wish if i could drive away all the negative thoughts but, i cant.

United......

Finally s7 AE stands united.The week was hectic even for a final year student of engineering having gone through all that suffering for last 3 years.Tests on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday innumerable record works ,3 tests on Saturday[Same as those in the beginning of the week],seminars ...life was breaking down for most of us within, the second week of the semester itself.Things were looking to get lot messier in the coming weeks.Coupled with the tests drama,non-cooperation of the faculty,Tour De Goa ,Industrial visit there were plenty of things to keep us pre occupied.

On Monday last hour,the class was asked to assemble in the hall to give our Bio-Medical instrumentation exam[ a tricky move to make sure we wouldn't copy:with 3 invigilators on prowl its almost impossible]."Fast,with only papers to write and pen come to the hall" the declaration.Well,PAPERS??? won't that be provided by the college someone asked.No came the reply.Its not that any of us were concerned about the number of trees cut down for making papers but,this semester saw the college hiking the fees +500, so as to provide us with papers for exams[As if we are really excited to write].But,now they took an U turn and were demanding so as we bring papers after spending our parents hard earned cash.Well, no one was ready for a move.The whole class demanded that the paper should be provided by college,everyone refused to move out Even after 15 minutes of the lecture hour.Some of the faculty members raised their voices against our rowdyism[That's what they called it].No one was ready to bow out,until HOD assured us that paper will be provided by the college.Good move class finally you learned to keep differences apart and start acting like ONE.

On Thursday ,one of the notoriously famed faculty came in to the class"Seminar on Monday" he announced.Each one of us were already granted our slots and the seminar were not due for 2 weeks.No one wanted to raise out,the fire was already on its way."With PPT" he announced.This really irked each one of us to the core, the fire spread.On a collective discussion it was assured that each one of us would be presenting just one slide.

Well, the presentation got over on Tuesday.Some of the mates back tracked from their original promise of one slide,some even made an extra effort to make an impression.What pity!!! but majority of the class stuck by the decision.At least in the final year of college we are understanding the true meaning of brotherhood.
