Abrand new bright beautiful day. Can't breathe. Vision is blurred. My mind goes blank. Well, I am not going unconscious. Actually, my nose is running, my eyes are watering, and I am unable to think 'cos of this irritation; well, I am suffering from allergic rhinitis. My every sentence is punctuated with sneezes.
Soft Computing class. Unlike high school where people used to strive for the first bench, here and now there is rush for the last benches. Things however changed for us as we entered third year. Fifty students in a classroom, where being a last bencher is not so comfortable, reason being no fan to cool them down in the heat. Four fans are there, fully functional, but affecting the area within a range of near about ten benches. Therefore, fifty percent feel the heat. I have got a fuzzy idea about the reason behind such a setting. It might be a plot of the authorities to endanger the species of back-benchers. I surrendered. I stopped sitting in the last benches. I was weak and gave in to the temptation. Now, I am no longer a back-bencher. I couldn't bear the heat. Well, the professor is cool. He used to give us attendance and allow us to leave his class, no fuss. Thus, we were spared of heat, though for one subject. Well, he wants to teach. Actually his enthusiasm has increased after our dismal performance in mid-semester exams in his subject. However, his zeal could not last against our vigour ,the vigour to not pay attention. He gave up and left the class. Well, we apologized for our childish behaviour.
Then came dinner time. Round table conference. Topic of discussion:- alcohol. Hypocrites discussing about drinking. Noobs acting like a pro in drinking. All putting forward their second-hand experiences about drinking. Some folks generate a lot of low frustration tolerance or "I can't stand it" about coming to an engineering college and remaining a teetotaler. Once a girl from non-engineering college told me, "Shame on you. You are in an engineering college and you don't drink". She was into rock music and so I was able to make a big comeback. I quoted Steve Tyler, lead singer of Aerosmith. He had said, " take out the drugs and you've got more time". Okay. Maybe I have not grown up. I guess there is still that kid inside me, and I am enjoying it.
There's a dream I saw. Funny thing is that it is the continuation of a previous dream. I had dreamt earlier that I was in a Lamborghini. A girl in red dress was driving the car. Well, I was being kidnapped. Must have been the effect of power-disking White Collar(series). Part 2 was about my escape. This time I find myself in a pedaled rickshaw. This time a poor rickshaw-driver was kidnapping me. Now, that's a riches-to-rags dream. I jump off it and run. The atmosphere was kind of dusky. Old walls painted with molds and mildew. Dashing and cornering, jumping and crouching, as I guess my way through the alleys. Dead end. Bang. It's over. Somebody banged my door and I woke me up. 7:30am. It was too late to get ready and goto college. But made it in the end....
