A day with V5...

It was one of those random "Last month" days in college... I got up with Geo and Malshes call, who called me in the Canteen to have a "Time pass" Session. Wht a random idea... i dint knew wht it exactly meant.. but there was no harm in doing it also. So 10:30 in the morning, v (malshe,shukla,prathamesh, geo and me) were in the canteen for a TP session. We were chating something which was all useless but we were having real Fun... Malshe read out the horoscope for us and again it was useless as nothing was correct. So We decide to move one step Fwd... Lets watch a Art Excibition... only Geo n Malshe were interested in tht... but we coudnt oppose it also as there was no good movie running and the ones which were good were seen..

So we reached Jahangir Art Gallery and geo and malshe tried to get the mood by watching and interpreting the roadside art ourside the hall... And here we entered the Gallery... all we could interpret was some stupid work which was made with very fine details.. (expression on geo and Malshe's face was worth seeing) .. we made good fun of those paintin (something the girls were keepin away from in the start but later joined in)... after this we went to Sculpture Excibition.. they were good but atleast i was not in a mood to understand the dept of it.. so the only choice lett was to make fun of it (many will say wht a saddist i am ) but then it was fun to interpret these sculptures...


Then came the best part... the Terrace Art Gallery... the sun was bright and the terrace looked wonderful... so we had photo sesions there and sat in a beautiful tree shade which was all covered with some yellow flowers... a very beautiful ambience... so we sat there discussing on a pseudo Boy frenn for Malshe and how to go foolin abt people...


nxt we went to Mondys to have a lil sip of chill beer in a hot day and also to realise tht we were drinking when v there was a lecture going on ..... cant believe this... But mondys (as usual) was real fun... we talked n talked n came to know so much about each other. Though some hated bear, some hated the hot weather, some hated some other thing.. but we all enjoyed in those discussions there...

Though the day was quite random but it surely became one of the most memorable random day in the final month of my college life










Daman Tripp...

The convo is over, xams are comin and everybody(including us) is having so much fun together with almost everyone. But in this wave, we(the colaba public.. hehe) had so little time together... and so v decided; lets go out and have time together coz may b later it will b too late... and so we made a plan to Daman. KT had his factory there... and v(especially me) hardly care where we r goin until and unless it is away from the normal day today life...

So 15th morning, 4 of us (Banda, JD, Gawande and me) met KT and Atri at Malad station and the fun started. Thanks to KT for his wonderful AC car(indica) that made the journey really comfortable.

So Atri was in a high state and so was Banda (thou both of them were not drunk) and started takin everybodys case one by one. For the entire 3 hours (thou i was a lill sleepy), all i remember was everybody was just laughing, laughing and laughing. One of the funniest jokes were on Banda when he was wearing this funny cap and google and was lookin like a perfect R******. It was all fun.

The moment u enter Daman, all u see is advertisements of alcohol. There are more Alcohol stores in Daman than the PCO booths in mumbai. WE stopped in one restaurant for food and were shocked to discover the alcohol at almost half prizes...

anyways we continued our fun and were just laughin the entire time on something or the other. KT took us to his Factory from there and explained us how things happen. Banda was really impressed by the factory and was comparing it with his.

Well after a long search in tht hot sun, we finally got a cheap and cool place to spend the night. The hall v got was just like a blessing but it seems banda got tooo excited and spoiled the AC and v had to shift later to another room. But till that time v had a nice sleep and some pleasant Music and mangoess...

Here we were at the beach with beers in hand and all we were doin is discussions. Some hot ,some cold, most of them funnny.. but v had so much fun together. Everybody was lauhing ... but with them we knew so much more abt each other. The feeling of leaving each other was hard to believe but v were all planning on when all we can b together later. It was just great. A moment so hard to discribe.

Back in the room v had that alcohol night with music and TV... v kept laughing and were just discussing the best days of UD... the first yr.. the second yr... the third and final yr...those were the days... tht v lived and njoyed... which made us better frenns and better person.... though no one got high but still v had a great time together in that small room. I just wish i ever forget that night.

Nxt day, everybody got up late(nothin unusual) and the marufying session started again. We were suppose to go to another beach, so we checked out and went to KTs factory for some work. Started playin Confession and it was fun.. The beach we went to was awesome thou the water was dirty and so the beach.. but the wind and the company was just amazin.

While comin back.. Atri, Gawande , JD and Me took out our shirts and the entire from Daman to Mumbai we dint put on our shirts... KT was so tensed and that made us even more excited....

The Convocation Day

Well... So Friday was the submission day and Sunday was Convo... the day i was lookin so fwd to. Me and Banda had really worked hard for this day to happen nicely and smoothly, and v were always thinking on wht to keep and wht not to keep. How can i forget the way banda convinced people to attend the party, most of them had just no idea of wht v were plannin, most dint wanted to come coz v r organizing.. but finally it feels happy that 105 out of 130 people paid to come to the party...

Friday came with a relief of Project Submission and was followed by the Farewell ceremony. So finally Saturday was all v had to make the necessary arrangement for the Convo. It was hard for Banda to work under those conditions but he had to do it and i had to convince him to do it thou i felt bad abt it. But v did it, arranged Gowns, Karoke Music ,Xeroxes for songs and coupons, Liquor in just some hours of time and the Slideshow.... i dont understand but y do i work (better) only under extreme pressure

So the Day came.. could see everybody in the hostel goin to the Dhobiwala for ironing their clothes and the search for good lookin Shoes (people even asked me for my shoes... how dumb.. but it happens with excitement). Ya so here came KT and Maddy with their cars and all the goods were loaded in them. We reached the venue (Days Inn, Vashi) "ekdam tension free", thou banda was (a lil) tensed. Due to some time delays the arrangement of things and entry of guest started simultaneously, but who cares. Everyone started helping each other in the arrangement and within the span of some 30 min we were ready with our set up. By this time the juniors had started the Gown distribution, Video recording and photo shooting. Well, finally i started the funsction and the funky Certi's were distributed to each and everyone. People were in a mixed mood of fun and senti.

Well, i had worked the entire night on preparing a slideshow with as many photos of the 4 yrs of UD, covering as many people, as as possible. But when i reached there at the hotel, I was shocked to see that the Lappy I had arrannged dint had powerpoint presentation. It was really great on Rathi's part that he arranged another Laptop and yes we had that presentation. I could see all wet eyes after the presentation. It was a beautiful moment, everyone from the naughtiest to the topper of the class, all realized wht they have been thru and wht they will miss ( as Atri describes it.. it gave him the BEST and WORST feeling at the same time). Everyone classped, evryone had their eyes wet and wth this feeling we all sung 2 songs "yaroon" and "Pal", with karoke and lead singers...

this was followed by the First screening of the First Promo of Our First movie (which we.. george (director), JD , Rathi, Prathamesh (actors) and me (cameraman) are working on.. people could not believe it and everybody .. i repeat everybody clapped on seeing it. George could not control his emotions and he cried seeing his dream getting real and the support he is getting from his classmates. yes we all were happy for it

There were some awards given to people (i got the "most pakao person".. he he). this was followed by photo session and returning of gowns. Shet gave a beautiful speech for Vikram that made everyone in a totally diff mood. However, The DJ put his music and juniors made the drinks (so almost everybody started with the Tequila Shot)..

music, dance and drinks.. thts all u could see. I saw some ppl getin high and Atri was one of them. He was so high tht i took him outside and both of us got Senti. so he puked .. so did the others and thts how the night went away in a stroke.. it was shock to see so many ppl of my class drinkin.. and the best part were their dialogues after drinkin...

really..... the day was just amazing and i think i will always remember this as "one of the best days of my life"
