Lvin it up on my own n being wild


This is what happens wen we leave things for the last moment.,..we wrk under serious pressure..All thanks to Shayama Maam (or else this blog wldnt have bin updated or even created)..its fun to work under pressure but you are  kinda unsure of the results..
So for today i.e my submission for this blog i thought I would share my experience of  being in the lovely city of Pune and  the LOEVLY LAVALE campus of ours ( ohh yess!!! thts wht our gang calls it)...and please bear wid me for not writing somethng bout brands or anything syllabus related which mite require a lota brain to understnd......
This experience of mine has some funny and some cribbing moments(actually more of the cribbin ones) tht i spent here...comin from a city like Delhi, u aren’t  really the “one” people would look up to-since u belong the state up north, u feel like an outsider here in the beginin (or thts wat the locals make u feel initially-but i enjoyed every bit of this too )..
So the here we go the journey begins wen  i first(for the reason of stayin here for longer duration than the previous ones...) stepped into the city on the 25th of may (though i knw i shldve have  strtd blogging then n thre , but cnt help being lazy too). From the station to my brothers place which now costs me hardly 70 bucks costed me a bombing 160 bucks just for a very simple fact tht i  was unaware of the roads of Pune ( n the bylanes n the lanes this city has is another added advantage to the auto wallahs of the city) ..but never the less i enjoyed my ride to my house since there was food involved since  i had asked my auto guy to take me to a place whre i could usher my love to  famous Vada Pavs (the great maharastrain  snack-which is like the staple diet for the millions livin in this massive state of our country)..
Belting 6 vada pavs was a sure shot way to screw my diet and my tummy too...again no regrets for good food...
26th may was a big day as i was supposed to check out the new and swanky campus of lavale (swanky was the only term i had wen i saw my campus tht time only...NOW things have changed!!!!) ..caught the 9 am bus to the lovely lavale campus...;reached the campus enjoyin the beauty (sceneric and the non–sceneric too)  around the campus and on the way (jst like the first timers do)....checked into the wrong room at the first go and the moment i settled into my new room for the next one year i was told tht i was one of the lucky ones to get a room in the ANNEXE (i knew wat the  annexe was...and didn’t mind shifting there)and from then on i realised tht there is going to b a hell lota walkin throughout  the year....newaz i  could’nt have asked for more(since ANNEXE was or is a gift as well a curse)...(jokes apart tht was the only time the thought of annexe being a holiday resort came to my mind)..but again i was new to all this..first-time outta house and tht too in a hostel (so the independence was a bliss)..checkin into the room before my roomies turned out to be advantageous as i got to choose the view next to my bed...which was the amazingly huge golf course anthe valley tht our campus overlooks ....comin back to the city was another experience of learning thngs bout this campus and the creatures tht live and exist on this campus....this time it was KAKA(the bus driver who cant live widout shouting for no rhyme or reason)-it seriously felt like his day wld be incomplete  widout yelling at innocent n (sumtimes) not so innocent kids of this campus..
The next few days were sober(compared to the days i’ve spent here after the 30th of may) and relaxing as i was back home wid my brother in the rainy city of Pune( thts wat people up north would call it)..it rained and it rained n it kept on rainin like crazy..
It was finally 30th of May wen i was to go back to the campus and sleep for the first time in a hostel called ANNEXE (i realised why it was called the annexe tht same nite...)..n the journey of me reachin the campus was another story tht nite...
so far the journey frm comin down from delhi to a new place to stayin in a hostel for the first time n njoing the freedom of livin on my own to the mess food (which hasn’t bin described so far in this post) to the rickety bus rides to n fro the city and campus...to the wicked and cheater autowallahs to the love for vada pavs....its all bin fun and i somehow can say tht i did not regret anything...its all bin fun and it will if we all take it in a positive sense( though i knw this post is more negative than positive)

  2. i have read a lot blogs where people are trying to show off.. be over smart and post things that they dont even feel..
    i love the way it is so obvious that you are writing from your heart.. infact it is quite refreahing to read somethin which is honest and open and without all the usual bullshit that people put in 'jus for the heck of it'.
