THE FRESHER'S PARTY....

        As all of us know that TIME IS THE ULTIMATE PARAMETER, every single question threw by life will be answered by the time. The only question which doesn't have answer is 'WHAT IS NEXT?'
which was also answered by the time only. In my story also I was totally unaware what was coming next. My life was moving smoothly and easily. Though the classes were not regular, I used to go every class to attend the lectures. One of the main reason for my regular attendance was Anumeha Sharma, the girl of my dreams.  Whenever I used to think about her, my heart used to beat faster. She had a cute face and bright eyes. Her every expression made me feel crazy. She was a reserved kind of girl. She used to say a limited number of words. But whenever she says something to her friends, it is like shower of pearls. Her smile was the cool breeze over a calm lake in a dark night under full moon. I was waiting eagerly for a moment to start conversation with her.
      In another side I was studious about my studies. As I had a bad experience of my grades in my Degree program, I don't wanted to repeat the same mistakes in my Post Graduation. The work was hectic and some teachers used to give assignment too heavily. That day, Professor Sharma from the department of microbiology, who used to take one PGS course had given us a big assignment. we needed to solve a bunch of 600 questions related to Biochemestry (Molarity, Molality, Normality, etc.) and had to submit it before next week. (Agriculture is a subject which is linked with all science related field. An average agriculture student will study a bunch of 64 subject over 8 semesters. They study all type of sciences like Engineering, Chemistry, Economics, Statistics, etc., whichever can be used to apply for agriculture.)
      'Hey Uday! Have you competed Sharma Sir's practical work?' Vish u asked me.
      'No yaar. Working on the same thing only. I need time.' I told him.
      'After completion you give the notes. I will copy it.' he replied.
      'He had given 600 questions. I completed only 250 questions. Still 350 questions have to complete. So it takes time buddy.' I told him.
      ' Ok. No problem. You just hurry up. I will wait.' he said.
      'Why don't you do one thing. You also start writing with me. We can discuss about doubts and we solve it.' I suggested him.
      'That's a good idea. Lets do it.' he replied and came to my desk to solve the problems. Suddenly our seniors entered in our room with an announcement that we were invited to the Freshers party which was held on upcoming Sunday. They ordered us that every single person have to give at least event in the party. Up to the fresher's party all the classes were suspended. After hearing we had a sigh of relief. 
       Jay, who is a remedial student from my batch planned for a local folk dance. He asked us to join there team but we know that how much bad dancer we are. So we denied his offer politely. As we used to participate in theatrical events like drama, skit, etc., during our UG period, we wanted   perform an skit for our fresher's party. Our other classmates brought an concept which was an idea of local train journey.
      Vishu played a role of Sharabi (Drunk man) and I was playing the role of a Rowdy. Vishu was an excellent actor. He used to act like he was drunk in real. So much reality was emerging in his play. I used amuse by his acting skills. I was playing a character of a rowdy which was a rebel in nature. We practiced the skit day and night. We lost our sleep for the purpose of the practice. So much dedication we used to put for the betterment of our performance. Our skit was played in front of fresher's party scrutiny committee which included Dean, Assistant Registrar and many teachers, for two times before final stage performance.
     Finally the day which was eagerly waited by us has arrived. The function was in the evening. There was a stage prepared by the students which was beautified by with their creative burning minds. The light arrangements were too good with colorful bulbs. There was different  type of flowers which were smiling in front side of the stage. Beautiful foliage plants are kept at the sides of the pendal which made the location close to the nature.
       Function was scheduled at 5.00 pm. As Indians we have a reputation that we will never be on time. After 5.15 pm students starts to come to the location. The boys were in formals and girls were as usual in their beautiful dresses. It was just like heaven was created on the earth. But my eyes were searching for that girl who tends to in my dream. The girl one who created sleepless nights for me.
        Finally she appeared. Wow! what a beauty she was! I stunned by seeing her sizzling beauty. By seeing her I entered in to a different imaginary world. She was wearing a blue suit with matching wale. She didn't had a makeup on her face which made her more beautiful naturally. She put on only eye liner which multiplied her attractiveness hundred times. She was glowing in the light like a star. In a single word, she was as beautiful as an Angel who is down to earth. I captured her beauty in my eyes for the life time. I wanted to admire her beauty more and more.
        Vishu brought me to the real world who is totally unaware of my imaginary world, by saying that 'Hey Uday come yaar what are you doing there? Party is going to begin.'
          I said, 'Yup buddy I am coming wait.' and I sat beside him. The party was begin at 6.00 pm after the entry of VC with his beloved wife. The program was began after lighting the lamp by VC. First all the students from B. Sc. introduced themselves. After that the culture program from them was completed. Now we introduced ourselves and then our cultural program started. I was not knowing that Anumeha also performing a local folk dance. when she appeared on the stage, she did a heart stealing performance. her yellow dress with red overcoat made her look more cute.
         After their performance our performance was scheduled. Finally time came show our talent. The first entry was Vishu who is a Sharabi entered the stage which was decorated as a local train, holding a empty bottle of alcohol. he gave mind blowing performance. After him Anuj was entered and completed his performance as a rich guy. Then the Vipul who is our junior entered and played his role as female. He was looking like real teenage beautiful girl and his acting was also natural. Then it was time of my entry into the stage as Rowdy. I entered the stage and started my performance and SUDDENLY CURTAINS (SHUTTER) WERE CLOSED.
          I was just got blank. I felt like the earth under my feet was collapsed. What a big insult to an artist it was! I find my self in a deep well. I was in a shock. My team was in a shock. After a moment we came to know the reason that VC's wife didn't like the bottle in the Vishu's hand. So she boycotted the play. We find ourselves completely betrayed. We were scrutinized in front of committee of teachers. At that time no one made an objection. But on stage, our performance was stopped in between without any prior notice. what a shame it was! to an artist. Our whole performance was stopped due to a silly bottle that to because of the wife of the VC. I was completely in anger. I went to Arjun sir who was also angry. He tore his certificate of academic excellence due to what happens to us. Earlier because of him only we agreed to play role in the skit. We decided that we will never perform again on stage in that campus.
        But one good thing happen in that evening was that my close friend Vishu was nominated as Mr. Fresher award. I was little happy with his nomination. We are unaware that what was going to happen from next day. Is it disastrous or is it memory of life time? which is going to unfold in upcoming Chapters....


Please comment your opinions.

THE MESSAGE WAR.....

        I was talking with Arjun sir and said "Sir! I was never thought that one day I will come to this end of the nation. How unpredictable life is no Sir?"
         He looked at me with a smile and replied "Look Uday. Life is always unfair. It always throws a worst question at you to take out the whatever the best part in you. So every situation has one positive angle and another one is the negative angle. Most of the people always look at the negative angle and ends with harming others or themselves. If the person look at the positive angle of the situation he will end with the benefits only. Situation will never be in our hand but the way of thinking is always controlled by us."
      Those words made a deep impact in my heart. That gave me a sense that there is a deep connection between my and his nature of thinking. Those words had stored permanently  in the hard disk of my brain. From that movement on wards I considered him as my Personal and Professional GURU. That day I was not knowing that our friendship is going to last forever.
       While coming back to the hostel I told him about Candy. Suddenly his expression turned into seriously and he warned me "Beware of that girl. She is the kind of girl who is going to use the boys for her own benefit."
        "Ok Sir as you say..." I replied.
         I never judge any person with some others opinion. I only set a opinion on a person based on my personal experience with him. Because every single person behaves differently with different people. So I took those words as suggestion from Sir.
         Same evening there was a meeting held in our hostel. All of our senors and remedial classmates called us to there room and informed us that we have to call remedials also as Sir/Madam. Personally I was not agreed to that because how our classmates will become our seniors? But due to Arjun Sir I agreed to call these remedial boys as Sir but I totally denied to call remedial girls as madam.
        "Hi! was there any class in the afternoon?" my phone beeped with that message.
        "Who is this?" I replied.
        "Hey this is Candy. Didn't you saved my number?" I got the reply.
      "Oh sorry yaar! I forgot to save. No yaar. There was no class in the afternoon" I said and continued "Is this happens often?"
        "No. May be today mam was busy." she replied.
        "Oh then its good yaar!" I said.
        "Ooooo hello. I am not your yaar. I am your senior. Call me madam." She ordered me.
        "Sorry. What? Are you serious?" I replied with amazement.
        "Yes. I am serious." she replied with angry face Smiley.
        "Why should I call you madam? Give me a reason" I replied calmly.
        "Because I am one year senior than you." she replied.
        "You are studying in my class only. Then how you became my senior?" I exclaimed.
        "I am studying in this campus from past one year. So I became the campus senior. Thats why you need to give me respect."she again sent with angry smiley face.
        I felt irritated from her and replied,  "You are a student of three year degree. Last one year you are completing the due courses so that you can reach our standards. I directly studied horticulture for fourth years. So both of us in the same year. moreover 4th students also studying from three year earlier than me in this campus. should I need to give the respect to them also?"
        After a small gap I got the reply,"Whatever you should give us the respect."
        This time I was losing my temper and typed, "No. I don't."
        Immediately I got the reply,"You will going to face the consequences."
        "It is not a new thing to me. Do whatever you want." I replied angrily.
        "Your count down started remember that." I got instant reply.
        "Do whatever you want. Go to hell." I replied and kept the phone aside.
        That I decided that I will never talk to that girl in future. But future has its own calculation to which i was totally unaware for the time being. After that I lost myself in my own world which is made of only books. I started to make move towards the goal. All the things were going smoothly until the 'FRESHERS PARTY' which turns into a big Mess.

REMEDIALS - Are they really our seniors??

        The agriculture and allied subjects purely relay on American based education based system. Here we majorly concentrate upon credit hours and attendance of each subject along with our studies. There is no excuse if any body is irregular to the class or less than 6.00 of CGPA (Overall Grade Point Average after one year). If it is less than 6.00 after one year, person have to repeat the year and same condition applied for the person who is having less than 75% of attendance in a semester. 
        We needed to complete two types of courses. Credited and non -  Credited. The marks we obtained in credited courses are included in our final OGPA (Overall Grade Point Average of all the subject which studied in two years). In case of non-credited courses, we have to complete the course with satisfactory results only. The marks obtained in those subjects doesn't going to affect final OGPA at all.
         Our Master degree subjects are divided as Major subject (Based on department we had chosen), Minor subject (The subject which help to conduct our research in major subject) and supporting subject (The subject which helps commonly to all the major department). Each subject is divided as 3 + 1 (3 theory class + 1 practicle class), 2 + 1 (2 theory class + 1 practicle class), 1 + 1 (1 theory class + 1 practicle class) and all the non-credited courses are either 0 + 1 or 1 + 0 in nature. Another condition is that it should should exceed 16 credit ours per week in any of the semester.
         To get our Master degree we needed to complete 21 credit hours of Major subjects, 9 credit hours of minor subject and 6 credit hours of supporting subjects, 1 Master credit seminar and 20 credit hours of Master research work within a duration of two years. 
          Finally classes were started on a regular basis from next day on-wards. As I entered into the college we were instructed to fix the class time table by discussing with our classmates and teachers. 
         It was early in the morning 9.00 am and I was standing at the corner of the class room and watching what is gong on among my classmates. There are six boy and five girls. Suddenly another girl entered into the class. A liveliness appeared in the class after her entry into the class. She was all set take command over the class.
         "We have to set the class. Give me your opinion about class timings." she said in a ordering tone.  
       I was just wondering who the hell is she? to suddenly enter into the class and taking the command over us.  No one replied to her and gave a confused look. I glared at her. She was 5.10" height with a flare complexion. she had small beautiful eyes with round face.
         "Are yaar! next class is PHT. We need to hurry up. Otherwise AR will kill us" she shouted. Still no one replied.
        She looked towards me hoping for an answer and eventually I replied "We don't know about this procedure. So how can we reply?"
        She was not satisfied with my answer and insisted to reveal our minor courses. Everyone replied that soil science. But I was in confusion. I called to Arjun  Sir and decided to take soil science as minor for time being which is a 3 + 1 course and informed her my decision.
        After deciding the timetable we just moved to PHT class. As class started madam asked about our introduction. I wanted to know about this girl. 
       "Hi! Myself Candy and I am a REMEDIAL student" she introduced her self and sat down. Another two student from my section totally eight students belongs to this REMEDIAL students from this category. Then we are instructed to go to the library to list out the availability of the books to that subject.
        "Hey did you made the list of the books available here?" Candy one who standing behind me asked with the curiosity.
          "Yaa! But I don't know about the syllebus" I replied.
          "Here you take the syllebus." and passed me sheet having course syllebus.
          "Ohh! This is great! I will find out the relevant books based on this"  I replied with happiness.
          "Actually I have some work. Will you please give me the list afterwards?" She pleaded,
          "Of course. No problem" I told her.
        "Thank you. Please do me another favor. Please inform me if there is any class in the afternoon." she said.
          "Ok but how?" I asked.
          "Oh sorry take my number and inform me please." she pleaded me again after handing over her cell number to me.
           "Okey no problem." I said.
           Then she said bye to me and departed. I moved with my friends to the hostel. I had my lunch and I was informed that there was no class in the afternoon. I just slept for two hours. After that I moved out with Vishu and Arjun sir to have roam around the campus.
           "Sir who are these REMEDIAL students?" I asked.
           "How do you came to know about that?" he asked strangely.
           "Today some of my classmates introduced themselves like that" I replied.
        "Remedial student is one who is basically not from Agriculture and its allied science background. They are basically from CBZ background. Some of the Universities allowed them to do their M. Sc. in agricultural subject with the condition that they are going to study the remedial due courses in their 1st year and regular Master degree courses in 2nd year on wards." 
           "What are these remedial courses?" I asked still in confusion.
           "They are the introductory courses to Horticulture." he replied.
        "Then they are actually our classmates not seniors right? Then why should we call them Sir/madam?" 
           He made a face and replied "I never asked you to call them like that."
          (I forgot to tell you readers about an unwritten rule which is followed in all Agricultural and its allied Science Universities throughout India is that Every single junior call Their senor as Sir/Madam)
          That time I was just thinking that how these REMEDIAL can be our senoirs?? At that time I was totally clueless about there will be a big message war going to happen that night between me and candy due to this matter.......

                                                                                 To be Continued.................................

MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT.......

     I never bothered about the girls too much as I wanted to keep them away so that I can concentrate on studies. According to me the girls are the beautiful creatures of god. They are the gems of life without which there will be no life exist on the earth. My parents always used to tell me about the scarification that that a girl do in her whole life time. I always had a advise from my parents that we have to first respect a girl and never run behind the three thing in life. The Female, The Wealth and The Soil. Rather we have to be so much capable that these things should come behind us.
     "May I come in mam?" a sweetest voice I ever heard in my life had strike to my ear drums. That voice made path right into my heart. I turned to look at the door to find out whose that voice is and first time in my life, MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT.
      A beautiful girl standing near the door. She was as beautiful as the full moon in the dark night. Her eyes were brown and beautiful as a lotus flower in the silent lake. she had a long hair which she made into a pony tail. she was curiously looking inside for the permission to enter into the class.
     "Yes please come in." madam allowed her.
     "Thank you mam" she entered into the hall.
     She was searching for the seat to sit. luckily a seat behind me was empty. She sat there. I don't know why but in so many years, first time my heart beat got increased so much. After sitting she came to know one of her classmate Megha also got admission in this campus only. They were chit-chating with each other. I wanted to know her name but didn't get the courage to ask her.
       "Ok folks. Now its time for introductory session. Please introduce yourself to other." Deepa mam asked to all of us. Students started to introduce them selves to all of us. I was not interested in the introduction of all the person except this girl. I wanted to know about this girl. Finally she introduced herself to the class.
      "Hi! Myself Anumeha Sharma. I joined as a M. Sc. Fruit Science student here." An unspoken joy was entered into my heart by knowing that she is also my department only. We are going to sit in the same class.
        My mind unknowingly started to chant that name ANUMEHA which means After the Rain. The nature is so beautiful after the rain. Calm, beautiful and eye catching. every single plant would be happy due to the shower. Even this girl also gave the same feeling inside my heart. I lost myself for a minute.
       But suddenly I realized that I am here to study. So I just suppressed that feelings and diverted my mind towards the study. After that we needed to register the course for he semester to study. So everyone was curious about the course that they are interested. As a genetics student I insisted to take bio-chemestry  as it is basics for the genetics and plant breeding. Then many of our seniors suggested that to don't take biochemestry because the teacher was too strict and may fail in the semester. If some one fails in the exam there is no other way than repeating a whole semester.
         Slowly we started our life which will never give a clue about what is going to be happen in upcoming days....
