My college had a very unusual timing , for instance classes used to start at 8. Wow , have you ever heard of any college starting at sharp 8 in the morning ,give me a break .We students work our a**** off during our high school , studying late till nights, going to all sorts of coaching classes , mugging up useless formulas and theorems to get THIS. I had been kept under the impression that you just need to work like a slave in your school days , once you get into a good college life will be paradise. BUT I WAS WRONG . Life here was no paradise , where in a paradise do you have to get up so early an attend useless lectures and tuts all to get one magical no , your C.G.P.A. C.G.P.A (cumulative grade point average) is literally like a hanging order. It means study or you’ll be screwed . Even if you study and all and write your exams well , there’s no need to be happy. The reason is that some or the other guy who must have been more intelligent than you or must have studied more than you will score more than you and on an average scale you will be pushed downwards. So you had better study and hope that others don’t to score a good cgpa. Our director in his introduction had also mentioned the same thing he had said QUOTE== ALL THE ATHELETES THAT COME TO THE OLYMPICS ARE GOOD BUT ONLY THE BEST AMONG SURVIVE. ==QUOTE . What this meant that the rat race was still not over, you were caught up in it and have to keep running until one day you grow very weak and incompetent and are ultimately thrown out of the race . So you get the point , life here was no paradise. The only thing that was keeping me up was the thought of Pooja.
Just the thought of being able to impress here somehow made me look forward to the next day. My friends were one of the biggest reason that I was hoping to survive in this rat race. Rohan , ya that stupid a** hole was actually a very good friend, He was stupid , grumpy but he was still a very good friend. There was this one day when I was in urgent need of some thing and this guy went out of his way to help me and even made sure that my work had been completed . Now you don’t get such a**holes everyday. Being around him kind of made me feel happy , probably the thought that I am not the only one miserable , there’s someone to give me company.
My first meet with Pooja had turned out to be awesome but after that I could not meet her for many days or 4 days to be precise( I had been keeping count). The college lectures were not helping me to find her , I had a jam packed routine and had hardly any time in which I could meet her or more importantly she could meet me. Moreover I did not have any weird reason to accidently bump into her. The only class which we had in common was the workshop lectures , but the problem was I could never get up on time.
Anyways bottom line is that my days in college were not passing very jolly. When you get into an engineering college and start disliking the lectures from the very start that is the signal that something is very very wrong .

Mess
My freshers party was not so bad. In fact it had turned out to be pretty good. The ragging and all was a very small cost for getting to talk to Pooja. I was overjoyed
Rohan - "You seem very happy , you escaped the ragging or what?"
Me - "What ragging,who cares about ragging ,I talked to Pooja dude"
Rohan - "Who Pooja?"
Me - "Arrey ,Pooja ,the girl which I had shown you"
Rohan - "Oh that girl , so what"
Me - "Come on man , I talked to her in the cafeteria , TALK , CAFETERIA , do you get something."
Rohan - "No , you are talking as if you proposed and she said yes.Dude she must be talking to tons of guys like you everyday , who cares. In fact if you ask me she might have forgotten you by now . Trust me there is no need to get overexcited. Abhi to tune kuch kiya hi kahan hai."
Me - "As if you are , pro , huh"
Rohan - "Li8 le, let's go to the mess."
Now the setting of the mess is of great importance. There were two mess or dining halls for the entire campus, mess A and mess C. The name A and C coming from the wings in which they were located. Most of the boys hostels were in A wing so the A mess entertained mostly the male population of the campus with very few girls , so rare that it would have been easier to find uranium in our campus than girls in A mess, so it was popularly known as the 'gay mess'.As you might have come to know by now most of the female population went to the C mess. We could have also taken C mess, but as it was the start of the semester we were given A mess by default.
The food in the mess also deserves a special mention. There were in particular two types of curry , green colored and orange colored, both of them tasting equally bad.All the vegetables found there place in these curries only. These were the types of vegetablles that were unlimited,meaning you could help yourself to them as many times as you wanted(although nobody did). There used to be one eatable curry vegetable but that used to be limited.There used to be one person standing there serving you, who used to as miser as you can imagine.I dunno whether he wanted to save all that curry for himself or what.Anyways you had to be a pro to extract more from his miser hands.
Student - "kya bhaiya, thoda aur digiyena"
Mess worker - "Limited hai sir."
That was the standard answer. If it was your lucky day ypu would get some more or if you from his state he would surely give you more.You had only ato prove your identity and he would play into your hands.
Same was the case with the one 'mithai' that we used to get.
Me - "Man , these rotis are as hard as rock"
Rohan - "Even the daal tastes as water"
Me - "Why didn't they let us choose C mess"
Rohan- "Why do you want C mess , wahan pe food ke saath me free entertainment hota hai kya?"
Me - "Obviously"
Rohan - "You and your theories."
Me - "Look dude I'm a normal guy who behaves normally not like you who---"
"Excuse me , is somebody sitting here?"
We got distracted from our argument and looked up
Rohan - "No"
New Boy - "Ok" so I can sit here, all right with you guys?"
(The first impression of this guy only made me realize that this guy was a total stud , you know the kind of guys who keep various fancy hairstyles , who wear Man U or Arsenal jerseys and whose facebook and orkut accounts are always filled with friend requests from girls)
Me - "Ya why not?"
New Boy - "Sure difficult to get a place to sit tn the mess around this time , looks like the whole college turns up ay this time."
Me - "Guess so."
New Boy - " I am Sameer."
Me -"I'm Puneet "
Rohan - "Rohan here, you are in which hostel?"
Sammer -"AH4"
Me-"Hey we are in AH4 as well"
Sameer - "Cool, which you are from which stream? I'm from E.E.E."
Me -"Computer science, Rohan is from M,Sc chemisrty"
Sameer - "Nice"
Me - "Ya, by the way you are from which place?"
Sameer - "Mumbai, and you guys?"
Me - "I am from Patna"
Sameer - "Oh! Bihar , nice, I've heard of some super thirty from there , pretty famous , eh"
Me - "I guess so"
Rohan - "I am from gujrat"
Sameer - "Ok , hey you guys got all your books and stuff?"
Me - "No , thinking of gettiheng them from a senior"
Sameer - "And how will you will contact them , through D C?"
Me - "What is this D C?"
Sameer - "Man you don't know D C do you have a lappy?"
Me -"Ya?"
Sameer - "Then you must install D C , it is awesome man?"
Me - "Ok will do, once I get to the hostel ,do help me out bro"
Sameer - "All right"
Me - "Ok chalte hain , I have some work "
Sameer - "Ok"
Rohan - "You seem very happy , you escaped the ragging or what?"
Me - "What ragging,who cares about ragging ,I talked to Pooja dude"
Rohan - "Who Pooja?"

\m/ li8 \m/
Before I continue any further with my story I need to introduce you guys to a word that is on the minds of every student in the campus. "LITE"
The history of this goes back to the time when our campus came into action.
We do not exactly know who coined this term but whoever he might have been I salute him today.The life of us Bitsians is incomplete without this word . It somehow finds a place in every conversation. Some examples being-
Query - 'Yaar Prob stats kuch samajh nahi aa raha hai'
Ans - 'li8'
Query- 'Kitne saare plates karne hain E G main , kaise hoga?'
Ans - 'li8'
Query- 'Yaar kal subah tut hai pehli class kasie uthunga'
Ans- 'li8'
Query - 'Yaar I love that girl kaise bolu '
Ans - 'li8'
Query - 'Aaj ek bhi lec attend nahi kiya pata nahi proxy laga hoga ya nahi'
Ans- 'li8'
Query - 'Yaar mera workpiece bhula gaya phir se sara kuch karna hoga'

Query - 'Next week se exam shuru ho rahe hain , book bhi nahi kholi hai'
Ans- 'li8'
Query - 'Ok students this is your homework for tomorrow I want everyone of you to do it'
Ans- 'li8'
So you guys must have understood the importance of this word in our lives . It is like the second skin , the universal remedy for all problems. In it we find comfort, in it we find solace , it is like your true friend never leaving your side always there for you.

In The Cafeteria
Now that our ragging session was over, it was time for the fun part of the 'party'. For a change the seniors were not looking menacing and were actually interacting freely with the juniors . I too had a chat with some of the seniors , but my mind was somewhere else . I was looking for Pooja ,'what if she didn't bear a good impression of me , then my chances are as good as over'. I dreaded the thought. Finally after some time I spotted her , she was sitting alone on a table.'Good ' . I thought , 'this is my chance. Chal bete Puneet , abhi nahi to kabhi nahi.' I went towards her and casually sat in front of her
Me - "Hi"
Pooja - "Hi"
Me - " I'm Puneet"
Pooja - "I know, I'm Pooja"
Me thinking - ***' Don't sit mum like a fool , say something , what to say? what should I do****
Pooja - "By the way you sing quite well"
Me (over the moon) - " Thanks , I didn't mean to offend you by singing that song It's just that----(*** you are so lovely ,can I be your friend***)---
Pooja - "It's okay I understand , have you received any vocal training?"
Me - " No no , I'm quite a bathroom singer . In fact this is the first time I sang in public"
Pooja - "Wow , inborn talent I'm impressed"
Me (*** good going Puneet ,aise he chalta ja***)
Me - "Hey can I buy you a coke to go with that samosa"
Pooja - " Sure , but I don't like coke , maaza would do"
Me - "Sure , I'll be back in a minute"
Pooja and me over two maazas
Pooja - "You have quite a dressing sense"
Me - "What I did't get you"
Pooja - "I mean the morning lecture in the LT"
Me - "Come on , it was not that bad ---(*** dam it, there goes my good impression***)---"
Pooja(laughing) - " Ya not that bad , you should have seen the face of the teacher"
Me - "Chuck it, let bygones be bygones"
Pooja - "So you are from Bihar."
Me - "Ya from Patna and you?"
Pooja - "Delhi"
Me -"Cool so you must have visited the Raj Bhawan"
Pooja -"Come on living in delhi does not mean visiting the raj bhawan , I am in delhi from the past two years , before that I was in chandigarh"
Me - "To tussi changi punjabi bolte hoge"
Pooja - "Assi to Punjabi hi hain , how do you know punjabi'
Me - "Movies , you don't watch them?"
Pooja - "Ya i do , in fact that is my favorite past time apart from--"
Me - "Apart from?"
Pooja - "I do a little bit of dancing"
Me - "Wow "
Pooja- " Come on tell me what are your hobbies I know singing is on of them"
Me -" Singing is just t p (time pass) 'actually I love writing poems and stories and stuff"
Pooja - "Impressive , will you show them to me sometime"
Me - "Sure"
Pooja - "O hell , it's awfully late I better get going I have to set things up in my room"
Me - "Bye , so I will see you around then"
Pooja - "Ya , see ya, bye"
Me - "Hi"
Pooja - "Hi"
Me - " I'm Puneet"
Pooja - "I know, I'm Pooja"

Fresher's Party
'All's well that ends well' , I thought to myself as I was heading towards the hostel. The first day had gone quite o.k. barring the hitch in the morning I had managed to attend all the lectures even managing to pay attention in some. Along the way I met Rohan who was not looking very pleased.
Me - "So how was the first day?"
Rohan - "Forget it man."
Me - "Why, what happened?"
Rohan - "The teachers over here think they know everything."
Me - "I didn't get you."
Rohan - "Nothing dude. It was this chemistry teacher. First he comes to the class and starts bragging about himself ,his degree and all other bullshit , then he says that half of the class will get av- in chemistry if we don't study like mad from the first day."
Me - "What is that supposed to mean?"
Rohan - "That is not all. Then he makes the noobest mistake while teaching and when I point it out he gives me a long lecture , something like what you got in the morning."
Me - "Chuck it man let,s go and check out mongi"
Meanwhile we arrived at the hostel.
Rohan - "Oye , why is everybody standing near the noticeboard"
Boy A - "Its the fresher's party , All the departments have put up their notices."
Boy B - "I have heard that they rag the freshers like hell in these parties."
Boy C - "No man , they won't this is BITS, idhar ragging nahi hoti hai"
Boy B - "But I have asked my cousin , he is in 3 rd year."
Boy A - "Will there be beer in the party?"
Rohan - "Oye Puneet look , your department's party is today at 6 :30"
Me - " Man ,why I am always the first one , its already 5;3o ,lemme see ."
The notice read -
DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE - ASCII
This is to inform to all the students of computer science stream that there will be an interaction session held in LT 1
NOTE - ATTENDANCE IS COMPULSORY FOR THE FIRST YEARITES
Me - "I better go and change."
Rohan - "Whaaat , you are not going to a prom ."
Me - "Still man , she might be there I heard that she is also in cs"
Rohan - "You are a real despo"
Me - "And you a real gay"
Anyways I put on some better clothes and reached LT 1 this time before time. I was right , she was there sitting with the other girls.
After some time the proceedings started with the faculty giving there welcome speeches (:this part is boring so I'm omitting it:). When all this finished the faculty left the LT. We could sense that the bad part was about to start.Then this guy comes up who seemes to be the head of the assoc.
MR HEAD - "Now we will have all our so called interaction sesseion. All the juniors sit in the middle rows . Second yearites on the left and third yearites on the right."
We did as told.
MR HEAD - "Now I need some volunteers from the juniors"
Nobody moved.
MR HEAD - "No problem, we'll pick . Guys who do you think should come."
In the next half and hour the seniors kept picking juniors randomly and made them do all kinds of things including pole dancing and catwalk.Meanwhile I was praying that I don't get picked but apparently my prayers were not answered.
MR HEAD - "You there , you in the blue T shirt ,come over here" I had to oblige.
MR HEAD - "So what is your name"
Me - "Puneet"
MR HEAD - "From where?"
Me - "Bihar"
MR HEAD - "Ohhh, Bihari , I D no"
Me - "2007A---"
MR HEAD - "In hindi you fool"
Now my hindi is not that bad but I couldn't give the hindi version of BITSAT in my intro
MR HEAD - "So guys what do you think our Bihari friend should do"
SMART GUY 1 - "Dance"
SMART GUY 2 - "Make him propose a boy."
MR HEAD -"It's common , so puneet do you have a crush on any girl from your batch"
MR HEAD - "Come on select any girl you like"
I thought 'this is my chance' . I pointed towards her.
MR HEAD - "What is your name?" ans - "Pooja"
MR HEAD - "So puneet you have to propose this,girl by singing a song"
Me - "I can't sing."
SMART GUY1- "NOOB"
MR HEAD - "It doesn't matter"
Ultomately after a lot of booing from the audience I sang the song 'pehla nasha'.
MR HEAD - "Not bad bihari,if only you had more guts"
MR HEAD - "Guys the first yearites are all noobs without any talent, they are making this session very boring , so I say we all move to the cafeteria for snacks and juniors it's FREE for you guys."
Me - "So how was the first day?"
Rohan - "Forget it man."
Me - "Why, what happened?"
Rohan - "The teachers over here think they know everything."
Me - "I didn't get you."

First class
I had slept pretty late last night mainly due to the girl that I saw at Ice & Spice. It was almost 2.30 when I finally caught some sleep. It seemed that I had slept for only 5 minutes when I was woken up abruptly by a loud banging noise at the door, it was Rohan . "Get up you lazybone",he was shouting, "we're awfully late. ITS 7:55, classes start at 8." "Whaaat", I said half asleep,"but i had no sleep." "You keep on sleeping. I'm going." .It was then that I realized that it wad as late as hell."Man, I don't wanna get late on the first day itself. I just put a shirt and put on my sneakers, grabbed a notebook and glanced at the routine. First class was in LT 4. Then I started the first really long sprint of my life. Now I am no athelte.It took me a good 5 minutes before I reached the LT. The teacher was already writing something on the board.
"May I come in sir." , I said
Teacher - "You are late. why?"
Me - "I overslept"
Teacher - "Why?"
Me - "I was not well"
Teacher -"What kind of a dressing sense is this.What do you think of yourself. Why did you even come. -@@##@@##@$^^^$$@!!!!!!!!-------------------------------------------------------- --@#$%%^^-%$$$!@#!!@!##@@#@!###@@#$$%^--------------------------------------.Today is your first day so I'm letting you in.Go sit."
There were a few guys in the first row. They had one thing in common , they were all nerds wearing shirts buttoned up to the collar and with enough oil in there heads to cook food for a handful people. They stared at me as I were some alien.But I didn't care for I was staring at someone else, there she was sitting among the girls looking even more beautiful than ever.I went and sat beside Rohan who had already seated himself comfortably in the last row.
Rohan -"Look at you man . Don,t you have anything to wear?"
Me - "Stop joking.I was already late . Aur late hota to hitler class main aane nahi deta."
Me - " Look Rohan , there she is ."
Rohan - "Whatever"
Me - "How come you are not into beautiful girls .Are you gay? Stay away from me man"
Rohan - "Don't you start blabbering .I AM NOT GAY .I have other priorities "
Me - "Like"
suddenly out of the blue
Teacher- "You two in the last bench.Stand up.You in the shorts.What is your name."
Me - "Puneet Mishra sir."
Teacher - "ID NO"
Me - "2009A7PS007G"
The teacher noted down something
Teacher - "And his friend .I D"
Rohan- "Sorry sir . Wr are very sorry sir."
Teacher - "Give me your I D or I will throw you out of the class"
Rohan - "2009B3PS576G"
Teacher - "So care to tell us what is your aim?"
Me - "What?'
Teacher - "Why did you take up engineering ?'
Me - " To earn money."
Now I don't know why I said that but it was perfectly true , everyone has the same motive but they say something else something like 'to improve the society'; but I didn't and on my response the whole class burst into laughter.
Teacher -"Don't act smart with me . Sit down both of you"
I don't know what happened in the class but the teacher kept on stressing on the words dimensional accuracy and surface finish. Meanwhile Rohan was busy taking notes.
"May I come in sir." , I said
Teacher - "You are late. why?"
Me - "I overslept"
Teacher - "Why?"
Me - "I was not well"
Teacher -"What kind of a dressing sense is this.What do you think of yourself. Why did you even come. -@@##@@##@$^^^$$@!!!!!!!!-------------------------------------------------------- --@#$%%^^-%$$$!@#!!@!##@@#@!###@@#$$%^--------------------------------------.Today is your first day so I'm letting you in.Go sit."

First day in clg - 2
First day in clg had not been that eventful. Meanwhile Rohan and I had started out to explore the campus. The campus looked way much better at night. Firstly it was a lot more cooler and secondly with students moving around it really looked like a clg . I suggested that we take a walk around the campus. It was a little strange roaming around at 10 in the nught aimlessly but it was thrilling as well. 'Lets go have another coke',Rohan said .'No ', I said ,'I know a better place.' I had been told by someone about the juice centre of the campus and its delicacies.'Ice and Spice' it read. Both of us ordered a chocolate shake.'Its awesome', Rohan said.'Told you',I said . Meanwhile I finished my shake and was waiting for Rohan .We were about to leave when I saw her. Now guys I dont know whether you have had this feeling but I felt like suddenly some machine had suddenly made my heart pump ten times faster. It is a strange kind of feeling like you suddenly start craving for something.She was chirping away with her friends , trust me she looked like and angel. 'Who's she ?'.I asked Rohan.'How am i supposed to know', he said.'Lets go and find out',i said.'Are you crazy dude,Its only the first day .You'll get your chances.Lets go and take some rest.Tomorrow we have classes to end man !!' 'I dont know about you but i am defenitley lookin forward to it'. Suddenly the first day in clg wasnt so boring.
First day in clg - 1
I was nervous, excited and god knows what not. Previous day had been hectic enough but today promised to be no better. I read the schedule first we had to get our names enrolled followed by a very long orientation programme .'Well' I thought to myself it cant be that bad and started walkin towards the computer centre (cc). On reaching there i found a long queue of students already standing. I chkd my serial no it was still quite far away so i decided to take a stroll around the area.There were all kinds of students around there ,many with there parents.Somewhere in a corner I saw a guy whose was lookin as lost as me. I went towards him nf introduced myself.'Hi I am Puneet.' 'Rohan here', the other guy said. After half and hour and two cokes i had come to know quite a lot about the guy, he was from gujrat (Oh i forgot to tell you , i come from the city of patna) and was well ,i dont need to tell you more about him after all its my story, nyways we had our registrarions which took ages to complete.Then we decided to spilt up and meet in the audi for the induction ceremony.The induction ceremony was also a sad affair ',the director kept on stressing on the need to study nd how they would nurture us and bla bla .I slept through the entire thing.So first day in the clg was not turning out to be that eventful,Rohan too agreed with this. We decided to have and early dinner and then set out to explore the campus.
Puneet
Well guys heres it there is this guy named Puneet .Puneet is a very obedient studious bla bla and what not kind of guy . You know of guys to whom your parents will always point and say "See him ,why dont you try to be like him , his parents must be so proud". Well the story is that Puneet had alwyas been a meritorious student in his academic life always topping his class. When he came in his std 11th his only aim was to get into a good engg college, so he studied day and night and finally ended up in bits pilani goa campus. What follows is his story.
(guys one thing I've chosen to write using an imaginary name because this is a kind of a story but a story which everybody experiences in his/her life but their experiences remain somewhat incomplete due to many reasons. I have just completed those experiences using an imaginary character , the character might be img but the story is very real , the kind which everybody lives or hopes of living)

About me
Hey guys . im a first year student of engg . well why i took up engg is still a mystery , not that i dont like what i study , in fact i dont really know what i would have done if i hadnt taken up this field . It is just that i have a constant nagging feeling inside me a feeling that constantly tells me that somethings empty 'somethings out of place. I dont have many moments in my life to which i can look back and say that 'that was a great day'. I have lead till now a very quiet life kind of normal as some ppl would put it .I guess this blog is just one of my attempts to start something new with my life. What you guys woud be reading in the following days are experiences that every guy has in his clg life. To find out more keep reading
