Those were the best days of my life...

Is it too early to say it or not I don't know but I think my university days where the days of my life.

Never in my lifetime I thought I would be attending university. I am sure people who know me were surprised (not pleasantly) and some horribly shocked learning about my cracking the entrance exams. I always was an average student. I never thought that life would take such a beautiful turn and I will end up in a place that I will never want to leave and maybe the won't  will never leave me. Time spent in the university is a part of my life but never knew that it would become a part of my existence. In fact that place became special because the people I met there made it so.

"Sometimes I dream about this place"
All those crazy idiots that made everyday so funny , special and worth remembering. There were days we did nothing yet I remember them so vividly. Lazy afternoons spent in the corridors, tea in earthen pot served by Kapil, eating lunch on the terrace, in numerous tours of almost all the lifts available at the campus without any purpose and so many things we did together. I hope someday, maybe after 10 years we meet do all those stuff again and laugh our guts out just like the old days.

I don't know if I would be able to successfully sketch what you guys mean to me in words but I am going give it a try.

Kashish, if my memories doesn't betray me then you were first among 'WE' to become my friend. I am glad we became friends and there is no particular reason for that. Maybe because you taught to be strong, you taught me to be better person who doesn't need to express everything yet make you friend feel you are there for them you inspired me to be yourself.

Saima, I don't remember exactly when we meet or became friends but I do remember telling Maa just after the puja vacation of 2013 -" I don't know about others but you, me and Kashish would definitely remain friends even after the course is complete". Well I was not wrong. Saima you taught me how not pick up calls when you are needed the most, you taught me to comfortably react with a weird scream anywhere possible on the face of the earth and you inspired me be a friend who would listen to you when you need to share your emotions.

"I still prefer Tea in an Earthen Pot"

Madhu, I remember we used to talk occasionally earlier and one fine day after almost a year we met, I realised you have become a very dear friend of mine. I love the way you are and remain the way you are. You were the only support when i was going through a tough patch in life- my internship. You taught me that just by talking random stuff you can actually help someone relax and rejuvenate to fight the challenges that accompany the coming morning.

"I can still hear our laughter in this empty corridor"

Prashant, again I don't remember when we met however I do remember realizing that in spite of being poles apart we were friends one day and you preferred to be with us rather than your other friend circles (oh how I wish to mention their names and instances when you lied to them to be with us. hahaha). frankly neither you taught or inspired me for anything. yet you made me realised that you are a very good person at heart no matter how narcissist and self-obsessed you are. and I publicly announce that you and Saima are very bad at singing however I still enjoy all the voice notes you both sent.

I hope I did justice to all of you (smirk).

On  a serious note I am happy that you all helped me create the most memorable phase of my life.
