Final Day!

Passions were running high, excitement was boiling over and patience seemed to run short as the final day of the University approached. Much was expected of the final day considering the facts/events that previously took place. Earlier in the week, a string of rallies were carried out by each of the respective department in which we participated actively. But the things got a little out of control as the university property was damaged which prompted the higher authorities to take precautionary measures. Inspired by the final year students, F.E also charged up their power batteries and yahooed around which costed each on of them 500 bucks. A rumor spread like fire in the woods that 5% of the B.E marks would be deducted which quieted everybody up and things got even scarier for them as another rumor spread that not 5 but 10 % marks would be deducted and then a note from VC confirmed their fears but there was a catch; It was said that this step is under observation and could be imposed. Time for preemptive measures! As the case appeared, so nothing happened for the next couple of days. But to their joy they were notified that no action would be taken on the Final Day and they can do whatever they want.

When I woke early in the morning, I could feel the ad relining pumping with joy. The sky was clear not a cloud with nice cool breeze blowing. But just then from no where dark ominous clouds lingered up in the sky and as expected it rained with great venom. As I reached the university, the mood seemed slightly dull but it improved as the day went on. Everyone was taking snaps of their loved ones, friends and teachers and taking autographs to preserve the everlasting memories. I was also asked to write a few which I obliged very gracefully. By 2 P.M, we had gone weary and hungry so we headed to get our tummies filled and get our much needed strength and firepower for the final bash. By quarter to 3, everyone gathered around and marched towards the gate. The scene was set for a perfect setting. Everyone stared dancing and clapping and shouting. I wasn’t going to miss out as I too had to practice for my final year.

Just to add in that this B.E rocked! I had many friends and most of them were really nice chaps. So to continue on, there were “Dholak Waley” which rocked the whole arena alight as we danced to their tunes. Colors flying all around! People everywhere, fire crackers just sublime. I never wanted it to stop but all good things had to end sometime and soon it was tome to go.

I also made great friends just at the end (hope Sanjeev could have been there to witness it) which was icing on the cake. I was called “The Nicest Bloke and A Very Sweet Guy”. Its always nice to hear good things about oneself. A great great Day!
