With a small feeling i marched towards the IT Block as i waved hands to few known faces.....As if its been years since i met them...Just a week, that's it fools, i murmured these lines softly......I did not find it too difficult to find out that all alone pink building that stood tall and handsome.....what a color combination, white and pink for college buildings....no one can ever imagine.....one,two,three as i kept counting the steps without purpose, i walked up the stairs to reach the Second year IT - A Section. Fish markets are always noisy, but why should classes be?. I could not justify that statement or answer that as i entered into the class room. Reluctantly i joined Aravindh who was already sitting in the first bench.....and our padips "Buddi Balaji"...(Guy's its not buddy, its buddi (Kannadi alias specs) ) as we call him with affection was sitting in the second bench.....Studies is all that he knew before he joined ITLects....Ofcourse it was him, Vicky and Myself who named our company "ITLects"....Ofcourse with prior consent and approval from other ITLects members......"Dai, enna yend a imsai panringa......nan neenga ninaikara madhiri illa da....." This is a defacto statement that he will make even if u tell him about how beautiful a gal in ur class is :)......Fruit should i say?. Or a False - Positive error should i say?,.....Or can i put it as "Indha punayum pal kudikuma?." ha ha free....Let me say its Balaji..... ;)
Flashy eyes, Simpson's hair style, Yellow Shirtm, Brown Pants......I could suddenly visualize all these in one place......OK forget who it is ....lolz.......... ;)
I could see one kid sitting next to Aravind...... (Was it the mistake of the small guy's childish apperance or the mistake of Aravindh's gigantic appearance????)....All that i could think of was, it was a wrong selection made by a ant to sit near an elep.....oops...forget it again :)
.....It looked like a father and a child sitting in the same class room......Nothing much could i do, not even laugh a loud as Aravindh was the only guy i knew closely and i could not dare to start off with a grin with this comment.....As i gazed at that new guy, i took my seat next to Aravindh...."Machi, this is Renganathan da......", as Aravindh introduced that guy to me, a pair of shaking hands reached me for a shake. I could feel that this guy was slightly uncomfortable with this environment......whereas I was highly uncomfortable :(.....With this shake, i started chatting with Aravindh as usual....."dai, enna da ippadi gundu aita?., veetula amma eppadi irrukanga....blah blah........"........Soon it was lunch time....."Dai Pasangala, K.Renganathan.....This is too big da", as Balaji made this comment, "Kureng"....how is this came out Aravindh as if he has made a big discovery.....Stage Set, things finalized, deal signed.......Renganathan will now onwards be called "Kureng"....With this name keeping ceremony getting over, we started asking Kureng for a treat.....(Guys in college will have even more weird reasons for asking for a treat, Balaji has once given treat for sleeping in a class).....
Soon it was Computer Architecture period and Kureng,myself & Aravindh were standing behind the last bench for not answering some silly question. little did i know that it was a question from the subject. I was thinking why in this silly world will this silly lecturer ask a GK question when i am not good at it?. After all First day punishements and screws are new to me nomore.....mind it.
As the bell rang for the last class, i picked up my bag bidding Good day to Aravindh and balaji....I knew that Kurang is going to join me in some more months on my journey daily back to Koyambedu as he was from the same area too.......
So who is Kurang?????......
One of the MBA aspirants in ITLects......Remind u guy's he is not as kidding in look as i described....Nowadays he is posing a big threat to Aravindh in terms of who is becoming fatter....lolz......One good description about this guy can be this:
"My initial reaction to Renga was.. "what a Pazham" LOL!! I have never seen a more typical Brahmin boy in this age,, this era.. :) he is so straight fwd, he gives me inferiority complex!!
But if u think u can take him for a ride,,, think again.. there is a sharp mind in there,A mature, discipined, hard-working fellow, who has multiple interests, and a curiosity to do new things, to explore, Jokes apart, this friendship we share had developed quite unexpectedly .........blah, blah"......
To be honest this is not my opinion, but someone's opinon which ITLects alone knows.....lolz....:)....Renga enna manichudu da.....Just kidding.....
But to be honest, he is one guy u can depend upon......right from the first day i thought he was a fool :).......i knew that he always had a small complexion as to why he was single all the time......So much hidden inside this small fellow, dreams and aims.......Love and intentions......."Why am i single?. " Given this topic, he can talk continously for more than a month, so much to flow out from his inside.....In short, a guy single, ready to mingle and do jingle is still waiting for his gal.....Gal's, you are lucky.....Get it from me.....
Oops too much about Renga.....since he made a special request - "Machi, u did not write about me in first year"...I think i have written enought about him now....Rest in my next post as we start studying for our 3rd Sem.....bye guys.....
Note: Renga, please dont mistake me....Everything written above is because of Kannadi's stimulation. :) Guy's something like Balaji giving treat are imaginary....What to do, atleast in dream this idiot must give a treat na :).....

Bridging the Gaps....
Apr 14th' 2002 Chennai
For some reason i was very comfortable with that second bench not knowing that it will be my row number for the next 3 years. guys and gals were talking so loudly that i cannot avoid hearing to any of their shoutings. I was still awaiting Aravindh to come. mind you, he was the only guy who i know in this whole class. I did not dare to even peep in to any of the neighbouring conversations as i was totally uncomfortable. oops contradicinting myself, but first i mean i was comfortable only with the bench not anything else. Jithesh, Senthil, rajesh, and so on.....the gang kept growing and i sit silently still waiting for Aravindh to come. "Eppadi irruka machi", the long awaited words reached my ears as i turned around to greet the giantly Aravindh. i gave him a place near my seat. I could not resist myself from remembering one horrible thing which feared me and Aravindh every now and then. it was summer holidays now for all colleges and our college was teaching us C and Java in Bridge course. If there was some reason fo any one in this wold to hate Anna University this would have been the first one. We actually were missing Manivannana lot at this point of time as he was the only missing guy in our bench now. (Though had Mani been in IT he would have moved out of this second bench to the last bench :)). Soon the classes started and as always i stood in the desk shouting again, "I am Hemanth Narayanan, My dad works.....Blah Blah...". For new readers read my previous blog. Its almost the same story which happened again now. After some crap, we got time for a coffee break. I still dont remember what we talked first, but it was suprising that i talked to a stranger so easily. Same feeling was there by this time inside Aravindh too. We could not control ourselves. i said to myself "Kalakara Chandru"....Let me tell u something before you Guys start thinking too much by now. We both managed to just talk a new guy for the first time (sware that u did not think of a gal in this scene now :) ).... yes and that was Balaji. Though i was relucatant to talk to any studious Amanji guy, we had no other go. Soon we started knowing about his Semester marks, and i started getting a small fear inside me that i had chosen the wrong one. Aravindh was in a sense ok, cause he is a padips too guys..... "You guys will fall in to IT - 2nd year Sec A", as soon as we heard this i realized that its by this time May 23rd and its the last day of outr bridge course.....but i was in no mood to relish this news. reason is????....in another week or so, regular college starts, which means we have totally no holidays at all from 1st year till 2nd year.....With that strong dissapointment i somehow managed to walk back home.......(from my bustand not from my college itself ;)).....
Sunday June 10th - 2002
Ouch, as i sat on my fingers watching Sachin score his century against some team (forget who it was), i got a call from Aravindh. "Machi, enna da ellam ready a for tomm?.".....As if we are going to join a new college after 3 months of enjoyment at home....."Dai, last week dan da college closed and tomm coll re-opens, adhuku nadula enna da romba nal ana madhiri kekara?."...as i made this "now a sarcastic looking but then an irritating statement" as i started talking to him.....As i finished dinner, i slowly creeped into my bedsheet slowly dozing off......But had a very bad dream of standing out on the very first day in our second year classes........We used to talk daily for atleast 2 hours on the phone, meet outside, chat, run, walk and pondered over so many unwanted things......Don't think its a gal, its again a boy and it was Aravindh and myself who did all these things.....( For some reason that was a good training that i gave to Aravindh which is now useful to him ;) , Guys don't ask me more on this now :))....Might be i might make use of those trainings soon too..... lolz......just kidding.
7:55 A.M Monday June 11th - 2002
I walked sluggishly towards the bus stop and saw a gal rushing there towards the bus stop too. I ran as fast as i could and stood calmly in the bus stop as if i had reached there an hour ago. "Excuse me, did the bus come?."......That was the first time in my college life had a gal spoken to me....."Hmmm.....actually no", I made a big messy statement so easily and smiled at the gal. "opportunity knocks only once at your door".....These unwanted stimulating statements ran through my mind as i stood at the bus stop. every now and then the gal smiled at me......One good reason i thought which made me proud for being a student of this college......Time moved on and it was already 8:25 and the bus which should have come by 8:10 Max was still not seen. The gal immediately rushed towards teh phone booth and called the College Travel Incharge just to confirm that they bus had already left our bus stop 2 minutes before we both came and my presense of mind only stopped her from running behind the bus too :). As she came towards me, i thought i am done now...First relationship, First day, last day......By the time i thought of this beautiful hints development, she came to me and asked me "Shall we catch an Auto?."....Oops starts are still supporting me i thought......"Ya sure, i have to reach college at any cost" i said as if i am the chairman of the college.....What a Zodiac sign can do to one?. One hour before a guy creied like a kid to go to his college and the same guy is now wanting to reach college at any cost.....As i got into the auto, that was the first time in my college life when i felt why my college was so near my house :(....As i got out, "shall i pay for the Auto?. "....i made this seemingly bold statement for the known fact that i had 50 rs with me with which i cannot even tip the auto driver. "Hey congrats devi, heard that u have got TCS through off campus", as i heard these lines, for one moment everything went out of this world for me....My first flirt went off and it lasted for just 50 minutes.....and even in those 50 minutes she was hearing songs in her mp3 player while i was talking with the auto driver.....So this so called Flirting expeditiion ended as soon as that super super senior (or to be clear good looking super senior :)) got off the auto to get her appreciations from that idiot who screwed my dreams.....What the hell urged her to wish devi so soon?. just 2 minutes later had she wished devi i would have atleast started 2nd year with a happy note that i am also a capable young gun who is capable of flirting.....:(....With this heavy heart i entered into my college not knowing if it was Devi or actually entering the college that made me feel heavy now.....
Rest in our next post as we glide through our second year.
