CHAPTER 3 August II : Getting along with Engineering stuffs...
The rainy season is the most beautiful and romantic season
in any tropical country just like India. Here every creature right from the tip
of grass to the flying birds in the sky
show their beauty and happiness during this festive season. Just like
the routine nonstop rains in Kolhapur the daily routine for Ragav was fixed. 6 AM getting up...9 AM attending college... 4
PM back at the hostel... even he always chose to sit at the first bench in the
row as he had a misconception that getting along with last benchers can cause
you more trouble .
The worst night mare of any fresher was getting a back log
in the sem result and also backlog for the subject- Engineering Graphics .
Those who successfully imagined the changing shapes and lines of squares and cones in their mind
with wide open eyes can easily understand these subject but who failed to do so
have to imagine the condole marks or just pass marks i.e. 40/100. Though this
subject was easy to understand but a junior always makes a mistake by getting a
advice from the senior. By creating multiple replicas of monster for this
subject they implant into the minds of fresher. And with all the pressure of different
monsters they try to study. Sometimes the advice from senior may also prove to
worth taking now it depends on student to have it or discard it. Shivprasad
helped Ragav to clear his doubts and also they belonged to same city. This helped him a lot.
Ragav attended the college daily with full sincerity. The new
syllabus for every new subject seemed to magical in nature. The most magical
part for Ragav was to realize that he is studying in an engineering college and
also he will be an engineer within four years. Such daydreaming is common for
any Engineering students. If the lecture seems to be boring you can enter into
an daydreaming stage and imagine the impossible that can create a history!
Ragav always tried to give answers to the questions asked by
the teacher during the lecture. This was the plus point to his behaviour that
even though he spoke less to the students in the class and also he knew some of
the names in the class all the class got to know his name. Sid and Sam were his
first classmates and they always occupied the first bench in the class and hardly
talked with anyone. This made an impression in the mind of others that they are
egoistic by nature but were not. The reason
behind this egoistic nature as the class thinks was being homesick for the
first time in life. You ask any fresher staying at a hostel about their saddest
moment they’ll say “Staying away from home”. Such was the case with Ragav and
others. He never missed a single holiday to get home for the weekend and meet
his family. Staying away from the loved ones and family is the hardest part of
any human in the world even though he has all the luxurious things in the
entire universe.
Thud ! Thud ! Thud! ...
noise on the door. Everyone in the room were in deep sleep and no one in
the room cared to open the door. Again Thud! Thud ! Thud! This time something
was wrong in hostel. When Harsh checked the clock it said “4.30AM” and opened the
door there was this warden “Get out you all lazy buts ! Get ready and go to
parade ground!!” . No one was aware what was this for. Then with a click Manoj
said “ Bharat Mataki Jai...!!”. It was
the Independence Day and the day when everyone becomes a truly patriotic and
vows many thoughts to mother India. Its not a problem of being patriotic but only
showing the patriotism for a single day in a year is worth thinking. A KIT hostel
guy will never forget the 15 Aug in their whole life. And also wardens warnings
in “typical Marathi” which helped to keep sense of being Indian alive.
To Be Continued...
