The last month was spent high on weed and partying like the
apocalypse was looming. Juniors were grounded again and they sincerely
prayed for our departure. We revealed secrets and cried our hearts out over
vodka in plastic cups and uninterrupted sutta sessions. We lived our life one
last time before striding down into the boulevards of broken dreams and
harsh realities of the world outside the college boundaries.
Finally, the day of bidding goodbyes and making promises arrived,
when our hearts were heavier than our packed trunks. It felt a bit weird. I
had never thought leaving this place, my home for the past four years, would
leave such an everlasting impression on my mind and turn me into the
person I am today.
College is a place where you eventually find out who you are! The
college premises is a place where you leave a huge chunk of your heart and
the people who were your foes suddenly turn out to be the ones who will
bring a smile to your face and college crushes will always linger fondly in
your mind.
You love your college more than you hate it.
As Bryan Adams once said, ‘ Those were the best days of my life !’
