What we Desire!!! What we have!!

What we Desire

My good friend chokki a.k.a Gautham Rajendran Used to tell about a journey back from Ernakulam to Trivandrum .A Sign Board on the highway changed his life . Nothing Serious ..... The board was of Amrita School Of Engineering at Vavvakavu.

Looking back now...Most of us who passed out of Amrita, are doing good.Or to be frank ...we all are working our ass off in IT companies....Everyday goes by us wearing formals and not accomplishing anything, By the end of a project cycle when we submit documentations, I never take the pain of reading it....It Seems like we have accomplished a lot in a project,and i know that, i could have done better ..It is d inner Conscious of an engineer that tells him he has not done anything significant, there is still need to be better at the art of not doing anything.When i studied for my exams back in college....ophh sorry ...hmmm...while i was in college it didn't take much of an effort to get through with academics...The only effort would have put in would be the extra time spend on to pass the backlogs .well there were certainly other important things back in college....Now when i see some of my friends who worked their ass off to pass exams...and even now are burning their ass off.... I realize what is being an Engineer.

Mathematical Definition for an Engineer might be a person who is good at problem Solving .So thinking along that lines we are the answer to all the problems that world faces today.....Well these many Engineers are there here and still too much of problems are there ....So, the theory is not satisfying. In the finest of engineering spirit ... let me announce...we are the best at solving and creating problems....If we solve all the problems available here, the cult fraction called Engineers would no longer be needed .Nah.....

a little more than four years in a college ... we accomplished a lot .... too much of good friends or to say after working for almost a year i have not made as many friends as i would have made in a week,when i was back in college....Leaving about Engineering and the broader spectrum aside,i would like to remember some of the best times I had back during my college days at Amrita. Situated equidistantly between Tvm & Ernakulam was a koogramam(Village),where boozing was held to the highest of spirits.Weekends would lead me to Trivandrum , ernkulam or kollam .Sometimes at my friends places or with my cousins.... I know the nook and corner of all places from trivandrum to ernakulam...Frankly speaking ....I am writing this blog because i miss my College ...
I miss my classmates....I miss Bunking my classes...God I miss the view from our hostel terrace be that of the beach or my college at night.and to be frank i miss my beautiful juniors..I like to remind some of my friends those great moments.

My first kollam weekend trip is long forgotten,but i remember even to this day, I rang up Reyno and told him , Dude i need to have chicken biriyani. He told me that he will pick me up at Kollam Bus Terminal ...we sped to Salem... I didn't forget that Biriyani for a long time .My Hopes of getting a descent biriyani was ------.It is not because Salem Biriyani was not good ..It was because I Belonged to Malabar.I must admit that,later on salem biriyani went on to form the great BB(beer-Biriyani) combination .

Going back to home after my first year.The only vacation i had during my college.Well next few years were strictly dedicated to studies. haaa....

Late night bus and train journey from home to college or back home ...I miss those journeys where i used to travel with my friends or make new friends .... God i have met some real good people ..Thanks to kallada & leisure Tours. Some of my friends used to ask me why i always used to take bus instead of train. Answer is very simple ,to go by train reservation had to be done a week in advance and all my decisions are made in minutes during those days.I am more responsible nowadays.

Then Ettimadai days with saji,lal & thumban . We breached the fortified campus on daily basis. Nobody who would have studied there for years would have gone out thenumber of times that we had gone out in a month.

God, this is best of them all. What was known as ACB. it brought a lot of like minded people together and made each of us know. we were supposed to find those hours boring, but turned to be some of the best times we had.

Bike Ride for Raagam(NITC) from kollam to calicut. We started at 12pm and reached Calicut by 7am.Me, Roshan,Reyno & Anoop.It really was a test .Was really a great experience . Raagam was great.also cannot forget how roshan screwed me up in front of my dad(achan) next day.

Amritakalotsavam, Amrita Tv events,marriages we attended uninvited.

lot of incidents flash through my mind. Those days are gone leaving behind , Even now i meet a lot of people i have met somewhere along in Amrita. Words are short to express the emotions that memories bring to me. All of us at Amrita, have moved on. We cherish those memories . The only thing that still remains is the bond of friendship we all share .
This is not my blog , this belong to all of my friends at Amrita to put comments about whatever they want.
