As the classes get over in the later noon, nothing refreshes more than a hot cup of tea as students bid temporary adieu to their batch mates, only to meet again in a couple of hours’ time to study, complete assignments, or simply just sit on the benches and soak in the scenery in campus. When the library and the computer labs are overcrowded, apart from when people are busy playing Counter-Strike, that’s when you come to know that something’s there the next day. And not to forget, there is always a pre-read for the class next day. Juggling all at once, a popular circus trick, so easily mastered by everyone on the campus, an essential tip before going out in that harsh world, all taught at the grass root level.
As the day comes to a close, the students get busy with their assignments and project presentations. It’s 12 AM and you run to the night canteen to wish your dearest friend on his birthday. The Night Canteen turns out to be the most happening place post 11.30 to enable people to continue the party they left off to reach campus on time. There are jamming sessions, gossip sessions and the plain reunion for friends who belong to different sections. The bond people share is diverse due to the regional, committee and section groups that are created to keep one busy. While you’re at the place, you make fun at a few of your studious batch mates that never made it to the place and laugh at their overzealous efforts with a Kurien coffee and a bowl of Poha. Ideas are discussed and plans are made for the next day and with each sip from that cup comes a sense of rejuvenation. Even when the clock strikes 1.30 AM, the hostel area looks like the Sachin Tendulkar pavilion at any stadium- always on an uproar. As you enter your hostel to retreat to your room you see little groups sitting and working or playing badminton around the hostel area. Smiling and waving to one of the many people you will get to know around the campus you silently retire to the room, put the AC at 20 degrees and shut your eyes into dreams of getting the best internship/placement. The day ends, with a dream of a brighter day in the hindsight.
