When i say i miss my college days, It doesn't mean that I actually miss 'My college' since i have never been to one rather in an off campus here in Qatar doing my B.com and heating up my head with ACCA! ;=(
When i hear the word 'College' it takes me to the imaginary world with a huge campus with lots of friends, angry teachers, sweet girls, beautiful trees, lovely birds around. It is only in movies i saw what a college life is, where guys enjoy their real part of the life with their own selected cohort. I know it is not that entertaining as I imagine.But you know, You need not have to pay anything for imagining or dreaming!! ;=)
It hurts me when my cousins says about their experience about their college days when they come to Qatar for their vacation. Rather i must say, I feel happy that they are lucky enough to enjoy their college days which I'm not blessed with .
Getting in to a college life is the turning point of ones life. Uff, i have been hearing this 'Turning point' often. When I was made to sit in a nursery, i heard my dad saying 'It is my turning point of life' Then when i passed to 1st grade, then when i passed my 10th grade, then 12th grade.. now college.. GOD ! Just realized I was turning around in life. ;=P
"Friendship is cooperative and supportive relationship between people. In this sense, the term connotes a relationship which involves mutual knowledge, esteem, affection, and respect along with a degree of rendering service to friends in times of need or crisis." - Wiki
But for me, friendship means a single soul with two bodies. From College, One have the choice to choose the friend circle they want to. One makes a 'real friendship' bond from the college than from a school or nursery. I'm happy that i made so many friends outta here in 'Qatar', remember i didn't say 'Off Campus'.
It is fun when they celebrate someones birthday's and other occasions it seems. Giving birthday bumps, Cutting out cake, partying around....... I never had a chance to taste all those sweet memories of life neither I can reminisce to my grand children when they ask me in future about my college life, rather i will sit like an old idiotic grandpa on a chaise lounge.
The most interesting part of college life is staying at hostel. God ! I remember my hostel days when i was in 11th and 12th grade. But it is said that college hostels are more liberal than school ones. We were even not allowed to use mobile phones. :=( You have more freedom in college hostel. Still it is fun to hear the way they irritate hostel wardens. I used to laugh out when my cousins says about that. Haha.. Oops I remembered the scene when they fired crackers near hostel wardens room. LOL !! I'm happy that at least i had a chance to live in a hostel though I missed my parents a lot, i learned what life is..
I live with all those stories told by my friends and cousins..
I wish i have a chance been to college.. ;=(
hmm... so missed college life uhh!!... am not makin u more regret!!.. but still tz really a big loss for u.. but its not too late.. u can tak up masters in a good college!..
ReplyDeleteMasters? :#
ReplyDeleteI believe there is no point in college life once a person get matured. Do you really think i can really 'enjoy' a college life after working here in this desert for 3 years and a sudden change back to college? It may bring disarray in life!
shyo...paavam..saralla tto... :P :P
ReplyDeletePot calling the kettle black?
ReplyDeleteMy 'Off campus' is better than your so called college back in saudi. ;=P
making friends doesn't have a time-frame, it all depends on the circumstances which bring you together.. truth be told - I am more close to my colleagues at office, than my college-mates...
ReplyDeleteCoz, when it comes to friends from college they tend to move away after a while - they get married, move to some other place, and meets the best-buddies in orkut or FB after a long gap - just to say "Hey, nice to see you here"!!!!
rMs, you are never late in making new friends..
The tone of the post is good :) for a moment I was taken to the memories of four-corner cat calls, bunking classes, texting from the front row to the back row.. and yeah ragging too...
Heyy Luna !!!
ReplyDeleteNice to see your inputs.. :)
Btw, I have many good friends around here in Qatar and back home. But you know, i miss the way they make friends in colleges..like.. living together, hm... Frankly, i don't have words explain it..
But you are more blessed than your so called cousins. They will never even dream off a pay that you are getting now in your very young age. Thank Allah and look people who are down and dont belittle the blessings you have.
ReplyDelete- YOUR BOSS!!!
Indeed that is another part of the coin!! :D
ReplyDelete-Thanks for the input.

Resorts tend to be the most expensive and luxurious of all accommodation types.
