Well it is that time of the year again, the board results have been declared, the college results have been declared, new set of graduates have been introduced to the world and people are ready to face the challenges that lie ahead of them. Some of us are looking forward to it excitedly while others are wondering what will happen.
My last four months have been really hectic and a very learning experience. Some call it as the life from the other side of the fence. In my opinion, once you get to the other side, all of a sudden it strikes you that you are solely responsible for all your actions. All of a sudden you feel that a huge load of responsiblity has been placed on your shoulder. People whom you would have never expected to get serious, become really serious.
Today, as I sit in my friends' flat and see them pack I realise that this is probably the last time that all of us will be sitting together with absolutely no tension and nothing to worry about. This would probably be the last time that we all will sit together, one guy packing his bag and others just taking his case.
Time does fly by. While most of my friends will be goin to Pune, there are still few of us who will be scattered here and there. As I sit down to write this blog, a friend enters the room and says that he feels like going somewhere and without thinking twice we just get up and go.
I still remember how we joined college in first year and all of us were still so raw. As time progressed, bonds were formed. We became like a close knit family. Initially, we had just one bike, Rohit Kumar's avenger, I remember how we used to make calls everywhere to arrange for bikes so that we can have a road trip. Slowly our "collection" grew and we ran out of parking space. The party place shifted from Dollops to Deetee.We had our own "transport manager", Mr. Mayur Jain, who ensured that all of us got back home safely.
Today, as the time to say good bye comes closer, I hope sometime in future we all can get together and look back at everything we did and laugh about it. Slowly, we all get involved with work and everyone starts their own life. It is weird how lives which at one point looked glued together are going to become independent now.
Hope to see all you in future and I hope that we can pick up from where we all left. Wishing all of you a lot of luck, love and happiness. Good luck.

Moving on is the only choice ...
I always love your blog posts because they bring back such happy memories! All the best with growing up :)
So you were writing some serious and nostalgic stuff while bantering went on and on in Saraf's room.
We have all become too close friends over the period of college to forget it all now. But yes, it is the time for a new chapter to begin.
But who is to say that this new chapter will not be as exciting as the one to which we almost drew the curtains yesterday.
cheers to life..!!
I read this post from my extremely geometrical and angular cubicle in office where me and approximately another ten thousand like me sit and slog their heads off 12 hours a day and the post was such a refreshing change, that I really am short of words to describe how I feel after reading it. I am hoping these experiences is going to be something that keeps us all going for the rest of our not-so-trippy lives :P. Cheers man. Cheers to Mayur Jain and all hail Saraf! :D
