Drifting In and Out..

4th sem starts and started it has...

This time around though something is different. Different in a negative sense.

I simply have nothing at all to look forward to.. 1st sem – C-O-L-L-E-G-E

2nd sem- U realise exactly when do to what kind of masti.

3rd sem- Lets study and see how badly does my branch kick my arse.And oh ya,A new hostel, new roommate , all good friends around u..Promises to be a jolly good time this sem !

4th sem... Ummm.... Well lets see... Campus .. Booze... Hostel masti.. Branch.... I have already explored all of those options.

All that remains is to discover a town which is well stocked BUT smaller than the Univ.
Probably go outside and discover a nearby by tourist spot and burn a rather DEEP hole in my pocket.
Now see i don’t have too much against travelling but i would appreciate my money going into Choco Fudge Brownies rather than tiring myself out on journeys.
Joining clubs .. Working in them is an attractive option though, But in a place having five thousand people , making a name for yourself isn’t easy at a time when 90% of your seniors think of u as a toss bag or someone who is good enough to “run about the campus”.When u see a project crashing in front of your eyes which was supposed to be your “Big Break” , it really does hurt and it hurts worse when u realise that u were indeed a toss bag .Nothing more,Nothing Less.

In such a situation all u can hope is to find the right set of people around u . Which i did and did not.
Having a rather group of acquaintances helps but in MIT, it helps only to a certain extent. Formality parties and Fake smiles are the very tip of the iceberg in that respect.
So when your problems are compounding .. what is the way out. As i see it ,

Go play Ball !

Or join one more club- The Law of averages should hold true.!

Or simply organize another booze party..doesnt take that much effort u know.

Or keep that fake smile and entertaining mood... Might actually convert that fake smile into a real one.

Some prefer to well...Sleep..I am not sure if that works though.
And dare not forget that overdose of sugar in one of those Choco Fudge Brownies !
