A visit to my Alma Mater

Day 1: At 7.00am, when I was trying to get my boarding pass, a group of ten Kingfisher airhostesses gather to the side to blow me out of my sleep! Lekhi and Kartik waited so long in spite of the screwed up flight's 3 hr delay. The air, the trees, the feel of insti was exactly the same as it was 9-10 months before, but most of the faces looked new and the dearest ones were pretty few. Met a prof with whom I could talk a lot and wondered at how freaking different it is to deal with a Trilogy manager than with an IIT prof. Evening snack, canteen hangout and video-show at Dharam's room brought the memories of those lukkha days. Visiting the funky poptates was obvious and first night's visit was with the cse chaps.
Day 2: Started to get the real humid-bombay-feel. Met all the hostel chaps together, till then it had been like a yahoo-conference only, for a long time. Life changes totally after transitioning from student life to ghoda-corporate life. Evening frisbee made me so happy :) At night, a 4'th-year-like party seemed like the best party I ever had! Stomach ached by laughing, so many memories hit all the time and everything will remain totally memorable. At late-night the lake-side cag went delightfully till the security guards appeared to throw us out of that place.
Day 3: Everything was as usual as during the IIT days. The return was again delayed, but that gave the opportunity to relish at the Linking road, Bandra KFC. Return to Bangalore was greeted by the state-wide bandh and all the day at airport was totally totally boring :(

Just a three-day visit to iitb and I've returned with the same thoughts I had when I came to Bangalore to start working in the corporate world. Feels like living those amazing days again, but as Ms Choksandik in South Park [:P] says that life is all about going forward and there is no need to go back even to the best days of life if we had lived them perfectly! A fun game is the game which gets harder as we play.
