Life at DA

It has been since long I have been one with myself . Though it just has been something about 3 months, I feel it like a decade !!! Now, I am home and I am doing what I want to; spending time with family, roaming out with friends, reading the piled up rss feeds, etc

But before all this I have been doing what I am supposed to do and not what I want to do.. You might not know how it feels like getting into an institution totally different from what you would have even imagined, a totally new environment...

Initially, I was missing those UG days so badly, I repeat so badly; that I, throughout the week, was eagerly waiting for FRIDAY. Yes, friday is the day when I can catch a train back home, to Baroda. Actually we used to calculate days remaining for runaway, as we calculate for a big event.

But as time passed and I started adjusting, I felt, I was recalling that change is must in life. I used to think that every thing has its peculiarity and you should not look everything from the same prejudiced perspective. And I started looking at it with an open heart.

Slowly I started loving this place. I made some of the nicest friends even out of my batch. G'nagar has a calmness and serenity in itself and I felt it at its best when most of the students went home for Diwali and I was still in the campus. I admit being associated with placements is altogether a different experience for me.

And it so has become that my answer, "its fantastic !" to the question "how is life at DA?" is a real one; rather than being fake one that it once used to be. :)
