June of Jaipur
It was first time I was about to leave my home for..25 days. The thoughts of common washrooms and the mess made things flow back to my mouth. A bus journey and 2 hours of cab drive (of which we spent an hour lost on the Agra road).. we were to LNMIIT. Amidst of hills.. and jungles..not even traces of human civilization could be seen. Standing aloof with a cheap gimmicky ripoff jantar mantar looka alike stone structure at the entrance(Which made us call it…the JMIT…Jantar Mantar inst. of tech) Hostels were a luxury..and I had Abhishek as my roommate. Abhishek..was a good roomie…and Ap was a good neighbour…always in time for a packet of lays.. and a bottle of tang!!
So first things first..
The first class and we were made to believe that we were a bunch of 150 odd morons who just hav peanuts for their brains…and we very well believed it.
Second day…when Shantu sir(subordinate to the KING) whispered us in the mess. It was five minutes to 9 in the morning..
“Bhagana aata hai??”
“Yup..”
“To Bhaag….warna Bambooooo!”
And he ran away…gosh..the king scared the hell out of his own brother. The terror continued for 3 more days when we were tortured 6 hours a day..bombarded with chapters to be read, questions to be prepared and yes..tests…
Labs were good..and zeroes were even better. 4 consecutive days we failed. Nope..Nope..Nobody passed.
And then we were given 20 minutes 30 mark bonus which we (AP,Abhi, me and our grp) comleted but the girls and their gang couldnt. Tears were all over. Aastha sobbing, even Swati was all tears. Thats when Santu sir called the three of us..and we were in for a huge shocker….
Swati was crying…!!! Even Vartika started to cry.. Aastha was already so overwhelmed with so many emotions and she even started to giggle a bit but swati was actually weeping when Ankita had tears in her eyes. And then the usual stuff…..you know..
“all right”
“Big girls dont cry”
When Aastha was panting and laughing at the same time…I aske her to go and breath in the fresh air…when she said “Nahin …bahar garmi hai”
Santu sir was a fan….everybody was Aastha’s fan actually//
Thre is so much to be said……
The Guns and Bins.., the sway it all chic, the tapori gal, the jhadi ke peeche wali gang,the class clown,…
Had so mmuch fun……
