This afternoon, I was sitting alone in Aniket canteen at University. I was alone, waiting for food to be served. Thinking hard about the fact that Abhijeet, Ajinkya and Amit had already left the hostel and rest will be doing so in less than a week, brought tears to my eyes. It was overwhelming and couldn't resist but to cry. I wonder how fast the time has flown by. Last two years have gone like anything, as if a magician had swung the wand and it's gone, literally.
Abhijeet, I still remember the day we met for the first time at PUMBA. It was around 8 in the morning, the sky filled with dark monsoon clouds and you were sitting under the tree, in canteen side parking, alone, having breakfast. I just asked if you were from the first year and found out that you too lived in a hostel and then we went on talking about college and stuff. You seemed reticent at first only to find out, at a later stage of our friendship, how much talkative and "speech-o-holic" you are. last two years with you had been a great fun, yet greater learning's and the most beautiful time I have ever had in my life. You were always there whenever I needed you, unlike me. I was a** most of the times, hope you will forgive me someday.
Last night, seeing you off, wasn't easy for me either. Same goes for you, Ajinkya. The very thought that things aren't going to be the same again has devastated me from within. I was good at handling such things previously, but this time it's just not happening. Once a harmless memory is now having me fighting back tears as I blindly stumble through crowds trying to find a safe place to fall apart. In fact, I am devastated by the realisation, now that we no longer carry the status of the student, lying in the bed eating chips and talking about girls is not going to be an acceptable way of spending my day.
I secretly wish if we all, you, me, Ganesh, Sagar, Ajinkya, Amit, Laxman, Chandu, Mayur, Abhishek, Santosh, Samadhan, Rohit, Raina, could start it all over again. Not going to happen ... right??? :( I just hope, in near future, we get to meet more often than not and get some LIFE for ourselves!!
With love,
Shailesh

Wonderful blog !!...have been through this so I could relate to the blog....college days are definitely worth to cherish... just one thing..." Don't miss the friends with whom you've spent the time..becoz missing brings the pain and tears in your eyes. Instead, just remember them, becoz remembering brings the smile on your face"..Hope you got the difference:)
Bro it takes guts to let the world know how you are feeling now. Very beautifully put. All of us are sailing in the same ship. Giving up this PUMBA life where friendships exist on a whole new level is not going to get swallowed easily. This we have understood in a few days itself. To each and everyone from PUMBA batch 2012-14, will miss you.
