Memories Part 2

As promised in my last post, here I am to share some more memories...

All of us have got scolded by our elders atleast once in our lifetime(for OUR own good, they don't gain anything by scolding us).. College was no different..HansRaj has the Coolest faculty and I love and respect all of them(they were just tooooo gooood for us and there for us all the time:))) and their DAANT was always taken in "GOOOOD Sense"..So here are some Fattkaars that we as their students are never gonna forget..

1. F1(Fattkaar 1, not HELP (F1) lolzz) :
In my last post I had mentioned about Dhoom 2...remember??The day was AMAZING :) Next day class lag gai yaar :D "You have just entered the college, in your first year and you went on a mass bunk" So 32 of us standing in our department and enjoying our first DAANT..When anybody thinks of DU, they have this misconception k yaar yahaan toh mass bunk hote hi honge..We were under the same illusion, but 6th Dec '06...WAKE UP!!!!Delhi University is not about bunking classes, some very serious stuff happens here..So I continue..There were only 2 students attending the DS lecture(those whom I din't saw attending any lecture in next 2 years). When the whole class was enjoying outside, they were there inside the classroom studying..lolzzz...But yup it finaaly ended with never ending sorryyyysss and thank yous and with the promise "Next Time..before going on a mass bunk we'll inform our teachers..." :D

1. F2 :
So this was the first and the last time I saw this teacher angry..And we felt bad seriously we did..But remembering it now all of us laugh loud..Everybody was super late for this class and guess what we all were standing right in front of the stairs to the classroom and talking..And could see our teacher coming and going out of the class atleast 5times n I was amongst the last to go(first n last time ;)) I still remember the exact line that the teacher said "I could see ppl standing outside and talking.."okkk.. my heart started pumping faster..That line was definitely for me and my friend..The temperature inside the classroom increased with every second as our teacher kept scolding us..Suddenly enters a young lady and says "May I come in??" And don't know what made us all laugh, including our teacher :)) and smiling, said "Thanx for asking, you are the first person to do that" That's what we call a "True HansRian", angery but still so cooolll...And there were few recording the whole thing ;) Does anybody has it ??? I want it :))

3. F3 :
"Why are you so late??"
"Bus Nahi mili"
"Where do you put up??"
"Mukherjee Nagar" :D :D
Mukherjee Nagar is next to our collge...

Next,enters our lost friend..Lost in his own world..With the same expression that he has on his face every morning :D
"Time kya hua hai??"
"9:20", my friend replied.
"Kahan se aate ho??"..."How much time does it take to come from there??"and it went on...
"Traffic bahut tha!!!", my friend said.
"The route was clear, I took the same route, I reached the college at 8:35"
I never saw that teacher itna angry...We were sure this person will get a thrashing any minute..We were praying he doesn't..But the teacher left with anger and my friend's facial expressions changed in a second.. :D And obviously the lecture din't take place ;)

4. F4 :
Sitting in our lab doing nothing "Padhlo beta padhlo..abhi samajh nahi aya toh kabi nahi ayega..Kya karoge aage chalke??"
Here comes the voice of the most notorious, but the most helpful and nicest(if it's a word) person of our class.."Karna kya hai!!Teacher bann jaayenge.."I could see the facial expressions turning from red to blue to pink :D :D

5. F5 :
We had this person roaming around, hunting for B.Sc.(hons) Computer Science Students, just to scold them "Classes nai hain aapki??Aapka toh semester system hai..Padhai Kariye jaake..." "Yahaan pe mat baethiye" And here enters our brave friend saying everytime he saw this person "23K diye hain humne and dhang ki koi jagah nahi hai yahan humare liye/ Khaane k liye/ Baethne k liye/ padhne k liye/ jeene k liye..." Bheeeer mein ussey dhoond hi liya jaata thaa, he was this person's target everytime... :))

6. F6 :
Final practical, using a pendrive.."Big Deal!!!" Teacher catches you doing that.."HEEELLLLPPP!!!" this young lady using a pd and suddenly a voice comes from behind "Aisa kyaaa daal diya tumne computer mein jo ye new Hardware found dikha raha hai" hahaha...And she gives this look "ummm...Kuchh nahii" :D :D

7. Daily Fatkaarsss : "First year students move out of the LAB..."
When we were in 2nd year ::
"Second year students move out of the LAB..."
And again that brave friend of mine "Humne sabse zyada fees bhari hai, 23k yahaan nahi baethe toh kahan jaaye??"

P.S. : Really sorry if I hurt anybody by the post, but it was all to remember the goooody goooody days that we shared with our teachers... :)) We miss every teacher that has taught us in HansRaj..They were truely the best :)) Luv you all :D

Memories

Got this complaint from most of my friends that why I have been writing all negative stuff these days..One of my friends had gone to the extent of saying "Bhagwaan k liye kuchh achha likhiyo next time..."(m not complaining, but I love you Mini for being the best critic and inspiring me) So here I have a small list that I would never forget, things that hold a special place in maah life.

1. Bus No. : 816
I guess this bus is special for everyone who's been to North Campus from West Delhi. Atleast I lived every possible Human Emotion in this bus : happiness, laughter, saddness, anger, hatred, fear, fun, hmmmm.... The route initially seemed to be long and tiring but soon it became enjoyable..Sum stops like Nangia Park, Chowki num 2, Shastri Nagar, Moti Nagar, Kirti Nagar, remind me of certain ppl and the time spend with them..Every morning I had these wonderful ppl to escort/accompany me on the route n yeaah in the evening as well..I often embarrass ppl by shouting "Look!!! that's MY 816" lolzz.."816" is a special number now..

2. Fun Cinemas : Moti Nagar
5th Dec '06 my first movie ever with my friends "Dhoom 2"(yes!!it's true I had never been to a movie before with my friends) It was the first time I interacted with ppl of my class..Got to know them well..First time travelled without a ticket in the bus(15 Delhi University Students and 1 conductor..haha..) and the next movie that I saw there was "Guru"..Though the hall was empty as it was the last week but yeah we were enough to make it full..

3. Digital Lab on Sunday
"Who goes for a class on sunday??" but when u are in HansRaj, anything is possible ;) Yeahh we had our Digi Lab on Sunday(during the Jan vacations) n trust me HansRaj is even more crowded on Sundays..It was truely the best sunday of maah life..Digi lab was fun but spending sunday with ur frnzz is fun toooo..

4. Chacha Ke Chholle Bhature
Now that's the only place in Knags(kamla Nagar ;) keeping it short and sweet) that I was scared of going, specially when you have this rumour of result coming out any moment..3 consecutive semesters, I have been to that place, enjoying the delicious, spiciest chholle bhature and getting a call or an sms "Result is Out"..urghh..Still the place is fun to hang around..n yup how can I forget the "banta" after chholle bhature.. I miss it the most..

5. Keventer's Milk
"Dood Dood Dood Dood Dood...Piyo glassfull Dood.." hehe..The anthem for the initial 2semesters, jus to irritate few :P It was yummyyy but everytime I had it, the day ended with me catching cough and cold..So here goes the second myth(the first was chacha ke chholle bhature ;))

6. Walk from Hansraj to DU Metro Station
The first time I took that road, it seemed like a never ending road. But couldn't even suggest a rikshaw :( hmmm but it was fun..That long, never ending road seems to be fun when you have your bestest friends around to chit chat with..The Bhelpuri waale uncle outside Arts faculty (he's a saint, he'll share with you all his life's experiences and also guide you to make your life worth living ;) I still remember him telling us after our exam : "Udaas kyun hote ho beta!! exam kharab hi toh hua hai..waise bi padhke karna kya hai??")..The bhelpuri stall outside Hindu, the momo's near patel chest, the kwality wall's ice cream..All the roadside stuff that mom tells you not to eat..Everything was just so so amazing..

I'll continue with the list soon..there's a lot to write..Do post things that were your memories and remember the good old days that we had.. :))

~~~COLLEGE DAYS~~~(Part 4)... Enter an Angel in disguise :)

When I first saw him, he seemed to be too involved in himself and a bit worked up as well. It was on the admission day. He stood two places ahead of me in the long queue, wearing a checked orange shirt and blue jeans. He hardly looked at the people around him and seemed to be in some hurry. He was sweating so profusely in the scorching June heat that I almost fought back an urge to go and ask him "Is something wrong? What's making you sweat so much???" Anyways, he got done with the admission and disappeared somewhere into the thin air.

I didn't see him anywhere on the orientation day and didn't even notice him on the first day of college. I remember that I asked him a question of discrete mathematics on the 3rd or 4th day of college and I also remember how he just shrugged and got back to what he was doing. Next I met him at the xerox shop and when I was leaving the shop, he put his hand out and did a firm handhshake with me,such confidence reflecting from his eyes! Then one fine day, after a lecture, he walked up to me and with that same confidence shot out- "Number de apna". I couldn't believe the easiness with which he said it. I mean, personally I had never met a guy ever who would say that so frankly and easily. Maybe it was beacuse of the kind of place I'd come from, where people don't mix up very easily and it takes years to come to the level of doing a handshake with them. So, here I was, being welcomed to "DILWAALO KI DILLI" by the biggest dilwala ever, none other than - "Mr. ANKIT MINGLANI"!!

Those kind eyes with a hint of unprecedented love for one and all, that soothing smile which made you forget all your worries, those hands which were ever willing to help others, that extreme happiness in the echo of his innocent laughter.... words, I fall short of!!

God could not send my family to Delhi, so he sent Mr. Ankit Minglani, AN ANGEL IN DISGUISE, a person without whom I could not have imagined survival, especially in the initial years of college, in Delhi.

Now that he has made an entry, let me tell you about the very first instance when he caught me while I was in the process of idle roaming around the college. He came to me and again with that same easiness asked me - "poore din aise hi akele ghoomti hai kya??" I just looked at him and gave back a smile. He then forced me to come with him and sit with a group of our classmates in the canteen. It was, perhaps, the beginning of a bond that knew no bounds, it was the beginning of a relationship that would, at some point of time, go ahead and establish itself as an epitome of true and selfless friendship.... Touchwood :) :) :)

~~~COLLEGE DAYS~~~(Part 3)... Enter Nishant Gupta :)

I am supposed to be an ambivert, I keep fluctuating between an introvert and extrovert depending on the situation. We were all new in the college, people were forming groups and becoming friends. It's the most difficult task for me-mingling with new people. In the breaks between the lectures, I either made my way back to my hostel nearby or hovered alone in the college premises.

One such day, when my process of hovering was on, ENTER:: NISHANT GUPTA!!..I will not start by showering any words of praise for this person as I have for others in my earlier posts.. We will together try to analyse and understand this one creature, and maybe we can sooner or later decide on who and what he is.. he he .. So again, ENTER:: NISHANT GUPTA


Nishant(as he sees me walking by) -> Arey suno Anuja
Anuja -> Haan?
Nishant?(waving his hand violently)-> Hiiiiiiiii
Anuja(with a smile) -> Hello
Nishant(sitting on LP stones) -> yahaan aao na

Anuja walks towards him

Nishant ->Baetho naaa

And then in a very meek and low voice,

Nishant -> Tumhaare bina humara dil nahi lagta!!!!!!


(Off the post: Nishant is actually going to kill me for this! Sorry pishutious, this is the reality and you ought to face it ;) )

I pretended as if I hadn't heard his last sentence. And he lived under the misconception that I had not heard it.. Not that he meant anything but this is how this guy is, he will go to any level of craziness and madness to create a light mood. And that is how he has been from that point of time till even today.. I have still not praised him, it will probably come at a later stage and I want to do full justice to it ;)

So, we sat and chat there for some time. We had probably taken the first step towards a friendship that would stay forever and ever. But little did we know then that we were two junglees from the same jungle and that he was BDAA ANUJA and I, CHHOTA NISHANT :) :) :)
