The best days of my life...
It has been nearly four years since our batch arrived at DA-IICT. These years have been a mixed bag for almost everyone.(apologies to those offended by the generalisation..)Winning and Losing, Good grades and Bad grades, Friends and Not so friendly mates, Good proffs and Bad proffs, Vela time and Exam time, Bakar time and Project submission time, Good food and Baddd food..the list is endless. Looking back, I think even the most insensitive ones' amongst us shall feel nostalgic. (I know many might not agree but I am sure about this!!)Many of us had their first night outs here, many of us were away from their parents for the first time,many of us made their beds by themsleves for the first time here,many of us washed their clothes for the first time(and realised that "some" coloured clothes are not to be washed with others), many of us were ragged for the first time, many of us got an "F" for the first time....many of us had their first dates here :); in fact most of us had our many firsts here. Some got hooked to "Friends"(the series!!), some got hooked to games, some mastered the art of bakar and some found solace in the nearby galla. But whatever it is, looking back, everything was so fun. Even flunking in some subjects was fun(read: AIS). Bunking lectures became regular by the middle of the first semester, and almost all of us were against the proffs who took attendance.(They infringe on our new found freedom!!)With passing time, different friend circles evolved, got intermixed and separated as well. We got used to having Brajwashi food but always craved for something better. We became efficient in finishing our projects at the nth time, and in giving proxies , giving that 1 ring missed call(I am almost acclaimed for doing that, ask prachita) and soo much more.I bet none of us can ever forget our rural internships... I know I am being totally incoherent in what I am writing and I have lost lucidity right from the start, but I can't help it. This blog is and shall remain one of the closest to my heart. I can't help but type almost everything that is coming to my mind...As I write I am constantly reminded of the fact that I have just 1 and a half months left here and I can't feel nostalgic. Thank you DA-IICT, for all that you have given to us. My best four years of life have been here, no matter what I have lost, no matter what I have missed.

Hey, the blog got me thinking of my engg days n my firsts :P
would just like 2 tell ya, engg mein firsts ka bahut jyada scope tha..
It was a 4 year course and u, infact everyone, was young, abhi at NITIE all of you have some experience (or the other), some notions and maybe some inhibitions too. Its a shorter duration and you can sail along without doing much. I do sincerely hope, that's not what you do.. you seem to be open to , umm, living! Enjoy the NITIE experience... baar baar nahi aayega.. put in efforts to make it memorable! The happiness when you know you've done some job well, and it gets recognized cannot be put in words. I wish for all of you (Impress 16) to know the feeling, while you guys are here.
Cheers and Best Wishes
Megha :)
