My RAIT

PART I
October 2003
I was tired...tired of filling forms, standing in lines, discussions about fee structure and 'EXTC better than Comps' arguments.
Centralized Admission Process didnt help...fuckin Sangamner, who needs you! engineering students in Uniforms...it was disguting. Stick to Mumbai colleges...Swamis, SIES was out of question...fuckin prudes! Agnels offered IT...yeah right!
Terna seemed good enough..at first. I mean i did get into Comps...which is what i really wanted, but something didnt quite feel right...I was admitted in that place for a week and attended a full day of lectures on 15 Oct.
That same night i got a call from RAIT...that they had seats left (big fuckin suprise that one!! RAIT faced the biggest attrition on the 15th...everyone left for VJTI, SIES and Agnels)
So on 16th October, 2003 i was finally in a college i almost-kinda-maybe liked....

March 2007
I'm tired again....its been three and a half years....
Getting up, going to college, no teacher in class...waiting for practicals, computers dont work. Try to get some assignments done, no sheets to write on...accountant lady gone for lunch/tea/coffee break. Pushpa offered some respite....meet friends, eat lunch.
'Robotics better than DWM' arguments....teachers harassing for low attendance.
Fucking curfews at Horizons...egotistic burnt out faggots !
Try to do something extracurricular and everybody says they can do better...fucking juniors think they're better than us.
Coffee at RRC...dental college posers!!! (nigga this and brother that)
Parents breathing down my neck 'do something beta...'
...low term work and lecturers who couldn't speak English properly if their life depended on it....completing files and queues for correction.
Vivas, PL, theory papers....vacations, wasting time, Results...disappointments, well tried and better luck next time.
Two unforgettable Goa trips (2005, 2006)...friend for life, and some fuckers i'll never forgive...back stabbers and bitches....A namesake and a brother.
RAIT:: wouldnt have had it any other way.....no regrets, just experiences.

ps. Theres no PART II...losers!
