Confessions of a VULTURE...

vulture, well not in the actual sense, but in our coll lingo... especially to people who have taken the mysore mess-1, will make a lot of sense.
vultures- these are those people who wait right behind a person who is having food, so as to immediately take up that seat so as to get served in the next round.

so much for the definition. yesterday i so happened that we reached the mess a li'l late... mebbe around 5 mins after it opened. so, we ended up having no seats to sit and hence ended up waiting for people to finish on the first table.
generally as this is the first table people are expected to finish of their food FIRST but that was not to be. other tables started getting replaced by the next round but not ours. now although i hate taking up the role of a vulture i had no choice. so i ended up standing right behind one of the guys. now i dunno if this guy was a really slow eater or was really hungry . but he took miserably long to finish up and i ended up waiting for him to do so. and i got neatly kicked around the full time and almost maimed myself in the process of him getting up to get something. well after those torturous 5 mins we got served and the foos turned out to be nothing great. so much for having to play the vulture.

now that i have taken up the 7th block again i need not worry about being the vulture.

scavenging never again

ma frnd in LOVE...

this is one of the most unexpected events that has happened.

yesterday ma frnd went to his blog and he had a reply for his post about the "fairer sex".... u have to read it to know what he has put down in it. basically his personal views on the females in this place.

now it so happened that there was a comment, rather 2, on his post, by some1 going by the name 'screwu'. he read it and was pretty mesmerised by it. he got really excited and went to the extent of confessing something that he would generally not even dream of.

myself being his roommate and all could only conclude that he had actually fallen for the lady(although i know better) who had written this comment. to accentuate my belief - he actually called her and i quote - BABE! that coming from him is again most blasphemous to his own nature.

i really don't know how all this will go on and shape up like.... but i guess it was worth a mention especially for all the people who have had the good fortune to know this highly knowledgeable friend of mine!

until another of this incident...

mismatch

well.... this comes after a long n well researched debate among myself n 1 o ma close associate.
as usual we were havin converssation about teh link ups among our grp of friends(which , recently, we have been havin a lot, coz most o the other folk r hooked up or have no hope, but we two r the only singles left out).

now thing is one of the females in our grp got recently hooked, or at least thats how it appears, to one of her "good friends"(thats precisely how she still describes him!!!). n this close associate o mine had a thing for this particular girl. the gut she got hooked to is one of the biggest losers who seems to have a knack of inventing genres of rock n metal which do not exist(read: he came up with "black metal" o some such). now its not only this guy, but the rest o us also cant stop debatin on this particular event.

these "pair of good friends" when they are on the bike seem to be unable to notice even the closest of their pals. n whenever they have been spotted on their own, they appear close enough for not evena fly to pass between them. so much for bein "close friends".!!! she cant take herself off him most o the times. n i'm bbein a li'l subtle here.

basically this has come to be the most standard example of how loser guys seem to be gettin all the good females! n has been quite a disappointin thiung to discuss.... although i'll admit its been talked about so much that the topics gotten ;literally exhausted.... n we could gain a Ph.D. for the research that we have come up with....

nywz i hope this drives home the point that i am intendin to.....

until i bug u the next time....

Rajasthani Lassi!!!

ok here goes a story tat quite a few o us noe....

it was a lovely saturday evening on the weekend wen the SLC(Student Leadership Congress) was being held. we had, had the workshop by PeopleFirst grp n most o us had refreshed n lookin forward to the dinner n the movie after it!!! Initially the dinner was to be at 730 p.m but wat the hell runs on time here!!

so we were hanging out , outside the sports complex(where the dinner was supposed to be held) n then slowly ppl started arriving. we talked wid ppl from the PF grp coz quite a few o us had been involved in setting up their props n stuff!!! we had ppl coming in from other colleges n stuff!

now after all the hanging around dinner finally started.... altho i wud like to bring to notice the fact tat it began only after a significant female population had arrived on the scene.

so we all went inside, n we were "hanging out" inside also(pretty ironical!). after getting the plates, we decided to settle down, n settle down we did. myself wid a few o ma close associates. now this one dude who's a pretty good frnd o mine, was also with me. we settled around a pair of females from one o the colleges tat had come from out station. now the conversation started n it turned out tat this one particular lady, the lady in qn. here, was from rajasthan. ma frnd had already made it clear tat he was attempting something, n then he started off about rajasthani food, after it was mentioned dat this lady was from the land o the pink city! initially everything seemed cool, n rather mundane, but then suddenly this guy came up with one dish tat left most o us sitting there dumbfounded. he exclaimed dat he loved o rather that "rajasthani lassi" was supposed to be taa damn good! i don noe y the lady din say anyhting, guess must've been outta politeness for the junior's comment!(it did turn out tat she was in final yr ). after tat, "rajasthani lassi" did the rounds o the block for the whole o next day!

but now the story has died down n forgotten also, mebbe, altho i hope it is otherwise!

i wud also like to mention another o ma close frnd- known as "windy" to some - this guy tat day stunned most o us by actually statin tat one female was hot n actually stickin' around her for the whole o the dinner part! pretty outta the blue behavior by him, but then not every1's true colors get shown very often!

tat brings to an end, another o ma a__nd eatin session, until the next time i feel hungry, ADIOS ma frnds!

forever hungry,

(D)RAG ur way thru coll!!

Considerin this is ma first post.... i really cudn't
think o any topic(also takin into account its sunday mornin n i have no way to expain y i'm up so early!)

comin down to writin somethin bout (d)raggin ur way thru coll.... from wat i've seen, or rather experienced, i wudnt exactly say tat raggin is all tat bad as ppl make it out to be(esp the media coverage it tends to get!). i accept the fact tat ma perception is limited to ma coll(NITK) n ma seniors(who r ppl not much different from us).

ok, first o all i wud rather warn ppl, who disagree with me, to patiently hear me out.
raggin is not bad because it lets u "interact" with ur seniors(ok ok... all i'm askin u to do is patiently hear me out)... u come to noe how to work the system, n it helps u bond with ppl in the initial days of college. in the later stages, u get to vent out all ur frustration with everythin by just sittin down wid ur party-mates n abusin ur seniors- believe me, makes u feel really light!

altho i do agree tat there r more civil ways to get to noe ur seniors but fact is tat seniors need to noe u... n u need recognition among the seniors. the other ways r much more arbit n complicated i guess!

wen it comes to raggin, i personally don want it to happen, but i stick to ma stand dat its required, coz we need work to be done which we ourselves wudnt want to do, o will rather be a slower n rather irritatin process!

as for ppl who dont get ragged all i can say is tat u guys r missin out on 1 of the interestin things tat come as part of the package called "COLLEGE LIFE"! but tat absolutely dusnt mean u r unlucky not to have gotten ragged!


chalo, i'll take leave now, enuf a__d eatin in this artcle! (u got it rite!)

until next time,
sudhir poi!
