UNFORGETTABLE PAGE IN MY DIARY

20th march

Today we have to catch the train in Chennai central railway stn at 2:30pm.We (me,Sirpi,Thangam) have been waiting for more than 50min in Avadi railway stn; And then we finally got train to central;At perambur we met all our friends, but didn’t get down as other friends (Sridhar balaji,vamsi, sunil) did. This is bcoz ,we didn’t had our lunch, so we decided to have lunch at central railway station, then we went and bought the food but the food was not good at all; damn it.After lunch all our friends gathered and god into the train. Unexpectedly srivatsan got his seat near “Mokka figure” hence, he was not interest to leave the seat. Then after crossing the arakkonam station he left the place to play cards. While playing cards we had lot of funs. During that time some college girls had fun by forming train (One behind another) and soughting. And naresh started making different sound. Those girls turn back at him which brought got naresh to excitement. Often we some snacks. We were changing seats often this is because our seats were not in regular order. And it was splitted. Arriving at coimbatore we had our dinner. Then I and sirpi went alone to spend time as there was three hours time gap for the next train. Then we were (me and Sirpi) sitting long in the station at the front end. The police advised “Thambi don’t sit here. At 1am we got next train to Ernakulam.

21st march.

In hotel we watched cricket match as it was time out for leaving to Ernakulam boating, all our friends left the room but iyer and venkatesh didn’t come out and we all asked them to leave the room. But they replied “Machi sehwag batting da 38 only target. So please”. Again we sought finally they came out of room. And entered the bus. We move to Ernakulam boating. When we got down we had a dilemma between veegaland or boating. Finally we decided to travel in boat. While traveling boat we again had lots of fun such as dancing, singing and taking pictures. During the jurney we saw dolphin and other two islands.

In the evening we went to tirupanapura palace. We had lots of fun. Then sathish and naresh looted jack fruits. We reached to the same hotel to staying at night. I acted like drunkard to irritate thangadurai and rajesh, they too believed that I have drunken.

22nd march.

This day we started to move munnar. While traveling in mountain road many of our friends got nausea. The mountain road was very beautiful. It was amazing for me because this kerala trip first for me. There we enjoyed lot in boating really we enjoyed. There only we enjoyed a lot.

On that night in munnar we went for shopping on the platform side we found out jerkin shop. As it was rs 100.00 naresh asked for rs 50.00 that shop keeper scold him after we left that place.

23rd march.

We started traveling to Athirampally falls. There also enjoyed some of them don’t know swimming and hence entered with scare. But as I know swimming well, enjoyed lot in there. Then we took lot of snap shots in all places. Especially naresh and venkatesh.

TIRUCHAR RAILWAY STATION

We went at 8pm to Tiruchur railway station , there next train is at 11:15pm between that gap I went out for shopping to buy some toys for my leepika but I didn’t found any toys to my taste…..

After in the waiting hall we got rest and thereafter we left for the platform anticipating train;; during that instant Naresh got the jerkin from paramesh and he posed for snap;every one got angry. Then paramesh posed like beating naresh with his footwear. At 11:15pm we got into the train; naresh don’t know to manage the seating arrangement. one sad thing is we got seat in S9 compartment and subash got in S2 he alone splitted. On next day morning he came to S9 and we played cards; then train reached arakkonam stn I got down with 5 of my friends.

FOODS

In kerala our friends were searching for Tamil nadu food and they had that. But me and sirpi wished to have a taste of kerala rice and had it. To us it was never different from Tamil nadu style, except size…

VERY HAPPY :

This is our first and last tour I feel we wont get this again. It is very sad moment. But at the same time it was a very very happy & long lasting tour in my life…….

I thank all my friends for keeping this tour alive throughout(3 days) with lots of fun, smile, happiness, joy, kindle, etc ……

THANK U ONCE AGAIN

Day 1

Day 2

Day 3

Chennai- Cochin- Munnar- Athirampally tour..!

Everyone would precise about how they ran the gamut of their tour. To make it more simple, I would like to jot down everything that happened in the tour briefly.

20-3-2009:

-> Deparute for Coimbatore by Intercity Express at 2:00pm. Had fun in train. Had more fun with girls who traveled with us in the abreast compartments. By 'fun' i just meant the howling and hoy we threw at each other. Our pastime were nothing but cards, lurking and footling chats. [Chennai to Coimbatore- 497kms; Travel duration: 8hrs approx.]
-> Reached Coimbatore at 10pm. Had food in a hotel opposite to the station. Our next train to Ernakulam was scheduled to be at 2am. We had some time to meander in the roads of Coimbatore.
-> Train to Ernakulam was at the station on time. Took a snooze and got up before we reach Ernakulam. It was at 6am the next day when we reached Ernakulam and we were taken to hotel Shalimar Residency by Subash, who joined us there. [Coimbatore to Ernakulam- 206kms; Travel duration: 3 and half hours approx.]

21-3-2009:

->At nearly 8am, Everyone bathed and got ready to wander. We went to a nearby temple and took some pics. At 9:45am, we started on our way for sight seeing. At 10am, we reached Ferry Boating. We were taken to two islands which had two important sites- St. Francis Church and an Archaeological Museum. We also saw the Chinese Fishing Net, which is very famous in Cochin. Tripunithura Palace is where we stopped next. It was beautiful. [In Tripunithura Palace, Naresh did a funny thing. Sathish found a jackfruit somewhere behind the palace and wanted to taste it. Naresh helped him to take it out of the palace somehow. Naresh, as if he was robbing the crown of the King, packed the fruit in a plastic cover, that got torn cuz of weight and its thorny surface. It looked funny when he was walking stealthily holding a bold face but his hands shivering cuz of the fear of security gaurds.] Before leaving for our hotel we went to Chottanikkara Temple. At 5:30pm, we returned to our hotel after having our lunch on the way. It was hot as hell in Ernakulam and we were drenching in sweat.
-> That night, at the hotel, we got to know that students from SMC have come for a tour and staying in the same hotel where we stay. Soon it bruit about among us. Had fun lurking about for girls and some more fun.

22-3-2009:
-> At 6:30am, we depart for Munnar by bus. It was a tiring 4 and half hours travel. On the way, we took pics at Rajamalai. The roads of Munnar were simpy awesome. Munnar was never less of a heaven. We reached S.N Hotel at 10:45am. The hotel was awe-inspiring and was very neat. There was no fan since its very cold up there. It was 17*C at 12 noon and less than 10*C in the night. I think only me and Guru bathed. The rest did'nt cuz the water was so cold that it'd numb your skin.
-> By 1:30pm, we started on our way for sight seeing. The ghat roads en route was simply dreadful.
-> By 2:00pm, we reached some place where they take you on elephants for a ride. It was too coslty to go for a ride on them, so we took pics with the elephants.
-> In another half an hour, we were at the Echo Point. Everyone howled their names and all we got was a meek echo. There was boating too, but we had less time to go for a ride.
-> At 3:15pm, we went to Kundala Dam. There was boating and everyone gave it a shot except me. The entire place was picturesque. The place serves as a reason to leave no memory space in your camera.
-> We came back to the hotel at 7pm after shopping some spices, home-made chocolates and tea powder, for which Munnar is famous.
-> At 8:15pm, we had lunch in S.N restaurant, very close to our hotel. We had to eat early cuz all the shops will be closed by 9pm.
-> We started out for a walk at 9pm. It was fun cuz it was pitch dark and i was carrying a torch that helped us show way. It was so cold that the words coming out of our mouth turned to smoke in the cold air. We went few kilometers and came back cuz of Prakash who got scared cuz of the dark roads that were ahead of us. It was 10:20pm when we reached our hotel.
-> We slept a little early, while others were paying cards untill they fell asleep.

23-3-2009:
-> Got up at 6:15am cuz we had to leave for Athirampally early. By 8:00am, we checked out of the hotel and left. We stopped on the way near a tea estate to take some pics. By 3:30pm, we reached the Athirampally falls after 7hrs journey by bus. We had lunch on the way. [A humorous incident happened at the hotel. Me and Shanmugasundaram had a burger and a sandwich which we thought might help us on a journey that goes 15kms high altitude. All the Brahmin guys said they wont have lunch in 'Veg and Non-Veg' hotels. They needed pure Veg hotels. Me and Shanmgasundaram, after having our burger, waited in the bus. The rest went to a hotel which was some few mts away from the hotel from where we had our lunch. They had ordered for Veg Biryani. While eating, Santhanam found two dead cockroaches in it. The funny part is, he had put the dead cockroaches aside and continued eating his food. And then he found a worm in it. Only then he realized that the food has gone bad. He complained and they canceled all their orders].
-> We got a news that actor Jayam Ravi has come for a movie shooting in Athirampally. I dont know how far that was true. Or even true. We never saw him. Took many pics there. The place looks beautiful but one has to be very very careful near Athirampally falls. Cuz the rocks were very slippery and was in no good shape. I got slipped once, but managed to climb up with no injuries. Ram Kumar and Yugasirpi got hurt when tried to move from one rock to the other. The rocks were sinister and scared the shit out of everyone. Soon after we got off the water, it started raining. It was beautiful.
-> By 5:30pm we left the place and reached Trichur station at 7pm. Trivandrum Express was scheduled to be at the station by 11:10pm. It was on time. Me and Paramesh shared a lot of things in train and slept a while later. I got up the next morning at 5:30am. After everyone was astir, we played cards again. There were some northies traveled with us in the same train but in S7 compartment (we were in S9), so we had to go there to feed our eyes.
-> We thought the train wouldn't stop at Perambur, but it did. Not at the station, but before the station that we had to jump off the train. It reached Perambur at 9:45am. I reached home at 10:00am, on 24.03.2009. [Trissur to Chennai- 628kms; Travel duration: 10 and half hrs approx.]

The ones who threw up during the bus travel: Naresh, Sathish, Paramesh, Rajesh, Vijay Krishnan, Santhanam, Vijay Saravanan. (If i had missed anyone, let me know.!)

I am a Keralite, but i don't used to go to Kerala very often. Im more of a Chennaite than Keralite. I love Kerala for the place itself, beautiful girls and eye-catching houses. All three are stupendous in its kind.

For all those who missed the tour, i should have to say that you missed a very joyous trip. Yes, it was a very normal tour cuz i've been to Kerala so many times since its my hometown. But its always special when with friends. The more the friends, the more the enjoyment. We were 23, and it was rockin'. I never know if we get to go for a tour like this again. But if we do, i'l be the first on the list for sure.!

THE SABHAE...

Hi everyone,
well, Guru had started this group blog to share our experiences..as far as I'm concerned, i don't have any memorable moments in our college. But i had great fun with my group called "SABHAE". we had started this in second semester.
Members included are Guru, Vijay, Sajith, Ramanan, Sarith, venkatesh and me.

GURU: He is a 6'2" tall and he is familiar to everyone in our department. i had a wonderful experience with him..he knew everything about me..and truly, i had learn many things from him. initially i used to hate him becoz he used to make fun out of me bcoz i don't know to speak Thamizh. then, he is passionate about bikes and gadgets..Moreover,in this four year long journey of our college life, he helped me a lot in many ways. he was introduced to me by VJ in first semester. from then our journey is going on and on and i hope it will lasts forever.

VIJAY: Shortly called as VJ and he is familiar with the name 'funk' vijay. he is first guy i had met in our class. we used to come to college in the same bus of course along with guru..Every time,he used to think in my way and he used to support me when I'm with guru.i used to feel stronger when he is along with me. He used to manage the calls those come to him from my home when i bunked the college..thanx macha.

SAJITH: Hmmm...i think almost everyone in our college knew him as a lead guitarist(i guess I'm right)..even though we know each other from our II sem, we used to talk very often...later the things had changed as we reached to V sem. From then, we had a great time especially during the time of cultural' s..i used to bunk the class and go along with him for practice..
He had great taste of music and of course he is a big fan of A.R.Rahman..

RAMANAN: I had met him in II sem, and we had a little talk with each other..He had a great knowledge in each and every aspects...and he can manage things things so well in such a way that he can change one's feelings and he is expert in tuning the situation according to him..and he is placed in INFOSYS...

SARITH: Hahaha...he is the one of the active guy in our group and i cant forget him in my life. i had a very great time with him..SABHAE will not forget veg.biryani(he used to bring to coll from home)..really, everyone should taste that at least once...he used to come along with ramanan...and he will do things exactly what he thinks in his mind.

VENKATESH: Every one call him as venky..I came to know him through Guru and Vj..of course i think everyone know him..i used to talk with him very often. But from the past one year, i used to meet him regularly...we went to the IND-SA test match last year(including other sabhae members).we had great fun at BLUR(gaming zone at sathyam cinemas)..we used to play games at vii games and XBOX-360 regularly in last month...

Still now, we stick together and enjoyed our college life...and i had really very good time with THE SABHAE....

A Perfect Tour

Hi!!! Iam here to xplain you all about our tour to kerala. 

NOTE: Before starting I request u all to read the post without missing even a word!!!

I thank all my FRIENDS who made this tour a most enjoyable one in my life. 

Now our tour starts here...

We departured INTERCITY XPRESS from central at 2.30pm on 20.03.2009. We 

started enjoying our travelling by playing cards, chitchatting, and Eating everyone's food. On your left side you can see cute 9 month old baby playing with us (the baby almost got close to me :D). After 8 hours we reached Coimbatore railway staion at 10.30pm for the next departure towards Ernakullam. We had almost 3 hrs for the departure so we went to have some dinner and roamed in the station. Our train arrived at coimbatore station at 1.15pm all of us went to sleep after an hour inside the train. 

We arrived Ernakullam station around 6.00am on 21.03.2009 and refreshed ourself in 

SHALIMAR RESIDENCY that was booked already for us. We went to a nearby temple( The speciality of all the temples in kerala s no men should wear their shirts i mean we should got inside the God's place with a bare body :D). And had we had some dinner in AARYA BHAVAN and started for side seeing in a bus already being booked for us. We started at 10.00am. 

Sight seeing places in ERNAKULLAM

ERNAKULLAM

FERRY BOATING:

This was our boat for 3 hrs to visit Bolgatty palace, Chinese Fishing Net, Jurish Church and museum. This boat occupied only 24 of us. We took many photographs inside the boat and also enjoyed dancing for the songs they played inside the boat.

BOLGATTY PALACE:

 Actually ths pic was uploaded from website. Becoz we jus saw ths place from the boat didnt go inside the palace :D. Was nice to see in real. A small description about the palace (The Bolgatty Island is a short but inspiring boat ride away from Kochi. The commercial capital of Kerala is also blessed with monuments of great historic relevance. One such monument is the Bolgatty Palace. Set amidst lush, tropical greenery, this prestigious heritage hotel answers your quest for a holiday of quiet enchantment. One of the oldest existing Dutch palaces outside Holland, this quaint mansion was built way back in 1744 by a Dutch trader. In 1909 the palace was leased to the British and it served as their residency till 1947 when the British Raj came to an end in India).

  CHINESE FISHING NET:

This is a different kind of fishing. If they drop these nets inside the sea around 30 mins. But our luck as soon as we went there they rolled back the net from the sea n the biggest thing is that no fish was inside the net ..lol... xcept 2-3. Cool Kinda fishing.

JURISH CHURCH: 

I dunno anything about ths churuch because no one was there to tell about ths to us. But i have lot of photos to b uploaded in ths.

 INCIDENT: In btw VENKATESH was shouted by the near by ppl for swinging in a plastic swing which was located in the kinder garden..lol.. i have the video as a proof is any one interested in seeing the video pls tell me ill upload it ;D.

MUSEUM:

This Museum had many historical words, stamps, coins they used n many other interesing things. CAMERAS ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED :(... 

In btw we had our lunch in HOTEL ABIRAMI. Then we continued our sightseeing to a palace.

TRIPUNITHURA PALACE:

A beautiful palace for viewing also interested in residing in this palace ;). Inside ths palace we can see the ornaments of a maharaja who ws residin there in late 1980's , the weapons, the chariots they used n some statues inside the palace. Outside the palace there were many deers with beautiful long horns on their head.

INCIDENT: Near the deer park a jackfruit was found lying on the ground. We robbed the fruit to the bus inspite of heavy securities ;). This Team was headed by NARESH because he was the one who made his way with that fruit towards our bus..lol... 

CHOTTANIKKARA TEMPLE:

This was our last sightseeing for the day. I heared & believe fromPARAMESH ths temple s famous for avoiding BLACK MAGIC by hammering a doll in a big tree. We also enjoyed seeing the crackers burst for us ths event is called as VEDI VIZHA.  

Atlast our first day of our tour came to an end by enjoyin dancing in our bus on the way to our rooms. The main drawback in ernakullam was the weather it made us into ashes. I guess the weather was 38-40*C. Dinner went good in AARYA BHAVAN with some nice dishes.

The second day was our favourite area (MUNNAR). Before paying the travels we had idea of xtending our tour till 25th to xtend a day to spend lots of time in MUNNAR. But our HOD told us that we should back on 24th night to attend the model xam... :D.

MUNNAR:

We got up early at 5am on 22.03.2009 to make our way to munnar. Made our way from ERNAKULLAM to MUNNAR at 6am it was a long travel we finished our breakfast on the way in a 5 star hotel the make the foods fresh we were pleased to eat there..lol..jus kidding a bad food in a small hotel :( . We reached MUNNAR at 11.30am and ordered TN rice for our lunch because kerala rice was so big n was uncomfortable to eat somehow we had our lunch in that hotel. 

The  photos are about a beautiful scenary on our way to MUNNAR :D.

This was our resort in MUNNAR for the day(S.N Tourist Home) 

INCIDENT: As soon as we entered the resort we switched on our room TV. Our room was big with 6 beds and 8 of us should stay in the room. So TV was our hobby but our bad luck our TV didn work so SATISH n MYSELF made an idea to xchange our TV with other 4 rooms making a fool out of them but GURU locked his room hearing our plan next to GURU room was YUGASIRPI's so we made them to move out of their room foolin with fake reasons. We two(SATISH n MYSELF) entered the room I locked the door and SATISH was disconnecting the TV and i carried the TV out n SATISH opened the door lock but our bad luck YUGASIRPI was standing outside the room near the door n his room mates SANMUGA SUNDARAM n THANGADURAI shouted at us hearing these noises the receptionist guy came to our rooms and within a sec i transferred the TV from my hands to YUGASIRPI's and i ran off to my room. Atlast YUGASIRPI was bashed with some shoutin from tat resort guy...lol. :D. 

 

We started for sight seeing at 1pm.

RAJAMALAI:

We didnt visit this place because it has been changed to a reserved forest :(.

ECHO POINT:

I suppose u all know how ths place works. We also had some boating facility here but too few boats around here so we moved to another good boating place :D.

MATTUPATTY DAM:

This Dam also included boating as i already mentioned above. We enjoyed paddle boating and Row boating for 30 mins. And we took many photos in ths place. Ths was our last place in the MUNNAR for the day.

We reached our rooms by 8.15pm on 22.03.2009 by shopping some good items for our home :). Had our dinner at 8.45pm.

INCIDENT: We went for a night walk around 9.30pm on the highway road. Starting from our hotel we covered approx 3-4kms as the road became even more darker many returned to their rooms xcept GURU, SRIVATSAN, SRIDHAR BALAJI, NARESH, PRAKASH, PARAMESH, SUNIL, SAJITH n MYSELF. We decided to cover few more distance but PRAKASH told we can return to our rooms becoz he almost was shivering thinking of some horror movies...lol... So we started walking towards our resort suddenly PARAMESH disappeared n we didnt notice that he was knelling on the dark side of the road and he got up from the dark side like a ghost with a noise and I was stunned n shouted a bit :D almost we got frightened becoz of him n we continued our walk with a big laugh. On our way we found a road with lots of darkness covered to make our walk more adventurous we started walking towards the road but PRAKASH disagreed with that walk we somehow compelled him and made him walk with us on the road we covered few meters suddenly GURU n PARAMESH started making some howling noises n PRAKASH started running from that place hearing the noise and ended his run in our resort rooms...lol... :D. Atlast we discontinued our walk n returned to our rooms. :).

We woke up in the mornin at 6.30am on 23.03.2009 and we got ready for our travel towards ATHIRAMPALLY. Our bus started fro MUNNAR at 8am n we reached ATHIRAMPALLY falls at 3.15pm. We had our breakfast and lunch in hotels on our way. 

ATHIRAMPALLY:

I dont have any photos for now. Hope ill get that soon ill b updated. We had a nice time in that falls we had a nice warming bath in the falls.

We depatured in our bus at 6.00pm and arrived to the THISUR station by 7.15pm with a lots of enjoyment in our bus and we departured TRIVANDRUM xpress by 11.15pm. In btw we spent our time in our dinner and shopping some eatables. The good news is that SRIDAR BALAJI gave treat for us the value of the treat was 300/- :D.

COMEDY BIKE RIDING EXPERIENCE...

Today, Myself and Naresh went to the Sun tourism office, in his bike, to pay the balance amount for the tour.. It was all normal while we went there.. We paid the money, got tickets and clarified our doubts on the tour..

While coming back, we asked Venky and Prakash to wait in srinivasa, to have some snacks, as they were roaming in Perambur.. V drove fast to not to let them wait there for a long time.. Well v covered half the way when suddenly, a bus came infront in a turn and Naresh pressed the clutch in such a harsh way that the wire ripped (yes yes in the same anniyan fashion, but in annayan, vikram ll be alone in his TVS, well, here i m sitting with him )..

Well, he didn`t stop the bike and continued riding!! He continued n continued and v travelled 2 and half kilometers without stopping and finally reached the mechanic shop in perambur..( Well, many times people came in middle but v just escaped dashing them, i just held my nerves and prayed GOD that i must land safely).. In between v too had a thought to do what VIJAY did in Kuruvi ( holding the clutch wire in his mouth, changing gears and winning the race ).. BUT Only he can do that!!!

I still couldn`t believe that v travelled around 2.5km in a bike, in the busiest hour of traffic, without a clutch wire.. We too laughed a lot thinking this, after getting down in the mechanic shop...

I just wanted to share this incident with u all!!! Well, If you want to learn to ride a bike without a clutch wire, get training from Naresh!!!

Keep Smiling Always!!!

Cochin-Munnar Trip - 20-24 March

When we started, this was going to be Mysore -Ooty backpacking trip with no fixed plan. Just plan as we go, we expected 10-15 takers at the most. But, now this had ended as a 2N-3D package tour of Cochin-Munnar and Athirapally falls with '23' .. yep 23 guys. I'm tempted to even draw parellels between the IPL rescheduling issue and the trip plan, that was how messed up it got inbetween. Everyone came up with their own dates, a few of us were rooting for a quick plan right now, some wanted it after the model exams in the first week of April and a few even wanted to do the tour after the project reviews/sem exams. Somehow we got everyone to accept a plan before our model exams. Ram got us a quick quote from Sun Tourism ( who're supposed to be 'specialists' in college tours .. we promise a review when we get back) and we came up with 2-3 tentative tour dates.


Now, with the list of tentative dates up, everyone came up with reasons why the dates were not 'okay' for them. Everyone had different plans and we had to squeeze the tour in somewhere. We had to work around stuff like Subhash going off out of town, Paramesh going on a family tour etc. and 'models exams' on top of that. At this stage, a few gave up their own plans and helped us pick a final date.. Friday the 20th March.

we're ON ..

I need to thank a few people for making this trip possible...

Ram - for your quote which started off this plan, and for taking care of all interactions with the Sun tours guy.. and also for convincing all of them to join.. i'm sure you busted your mobile bill planning for this tour. ( btw.. i just found out, ram has a post-paid connection.. i'm sure this info will be useful when we all run out of balance on roaming).

Srivatsan - for all the slick convincing you did/helped with, and for the bargaining at Sun tours the other day. too bad it did not work so well. The guy knows we're desp. to do this tour and we had very less time to make other plans.

Venkatesh - for your support convincing everyone and for helping with the plans for Subhash and for making it possible for Yugesh to join us.

Subhash - macha .. you're 'the' man.. i don't think anyone else would agree to such an insane plan to join us directly at ernakulam after a eight hour travel all alone from Kanyakumari.

Prakash - for not getting (too)wild with all the frequent plan changes, extra cash requests ..

all the guys who said 'i'm okay with any plan, any day' - for being so cooperative. for making life easy for us..

the rest of them - for making it somehow.. :)



I hope everyone'll post their trip log, experiences, album links on the blog when we get back. That'll be an awesome way to archive our thoughts for later.


P.S: I know we weren't very efficient planning this, we gave little time for everyone to get the cash ready, we could not do much about bringing down the tour price etc.. but.. all we wanted was for the trip to happen somehow within the planned dates and we wanted a good turnout. So forgive me if i rubbed you the wrong way somehow along the way during all this.

My First Post To Thank My Friends

First of all i would like to congratulate all my friends, because we have completed (or about to complete) our four years of college life... am very glad to see all of us here... also i would like to thank all my friends who supported and cared me in this 4 years... There are many unfading moments i had in this college life.. Thanks to JEC and my friends

According to me College life is the most memorable phase in every one’s life. I am sure every one would have enjoyed the most during these days. Be it bunking classes, spending those endless hours in the canteen,lecturer's advice , friends and i hope these memories never fade in our life...

Now when the college life comes to an end, life becomes kind of monotonous. Taking photographs in our class rooms, writing in slam books were done by us.. Of course, we will also carry a good memories with us... Since this is my first post i ended up with this few words.

Atlast i would like to extend my thanks to Guru for creating this group blog... From this blog we can realize there is a college life after college... i hope our friendship stays forever.... So friends let us share everything here and whatever happens in our life's journey... Keep blogging

So mates Keep posting........Let the spirit of ECE B 05-09 batch live forever......

First Post!! Purely Devoted To Our FRIENDSHIP...

Well , to start with , I never ever dreamt to join this college!! When I finished my +2, to be more precise, i had no idea to continue studies in chennai!! I strongly believed that i would easily crack AIEEE and will join some NITs but, i was 2 marks short of the cutoff.. When the AIEEE results came, I was totally bewildered about my future!! Meanwhile one of my relative suggested this college and well, i had no option other than joining it..

Its now, almost the end of our four years course, when i feel `oh i took a perfect decision by choosing this college!!`( hey wait, I m not promoting my college!! if you have completed ur schooling and looking for a college i would rather suggest you to not to consider my college in your list) .. If i promote my college my friends (co authors of this blog) wil killll me!!

Well, I feel, I took a perfect decision by electing this college because it glued me with the most beautiful relation in the world `FRIENDSHIP`!! It gave me Friends!! Friends, who care for me! Friends, who pray for me! Friends, who made differences in my life! Friends, Friends and only Friends!!! Even the whole blue sky is not enough to write about them!!

This post (my first post) is purely devoted to my friends and our everlasting friendship.. I can`t even imagine a second on how my life would be if they were not its part.. Through my good and bad times, they showed me the way to enjoy the life!! Well we have only 2 months left, after which everyone`s life will be parted and directed in different lanes.. Through this post, i would thank my friends (the co authors of this blog) for playing a significant role in my life.. The word `Thanks` should not be used in friendship but i used it because its not just a formality, its deep from my heart!! These 4 yrs were the peerless period of my life which were not possible without you all..

I would also like to thank Guru for originating this idea of creating a Group Blog through which we can share our life with each other even after years..

Well, I just pray god that our friendship continues and continues till our life ends..

Friendship Rocks!!!

Keep Smiling Always!!!

#1 Post

Welcome aboard all .. !!

This is a group blog project for the students passing out from the ECE department of Jaya Engineering College, Chennai, 2005-2009 batch. The blog will be co-authored by all the batch members and we're looking to get everyone to contribute his/her college memories here for a start.. you could also treat this as an 'online slam book' where you can write in your opinions, rants, complaints about anything related to our college life.. feel free to 'slam' anything you feel like( some ideas - you could start with your fellow classmates, college staff, college administration, the group blog effort).


If everything goes well ( ie. if we manage to get a good response from everyone) this blog will soon be filled with candid thoughts, experiences etc. from all of us. And then.. this page can also be used a news board to share our progress/experiences in the coming years. Writing in here might seem a little trivial right now to some most of you, but i'm sure we'll all feel great about doing this when we look back a few years on. We'll also use this space to put up album links of our group pics, get2gether plans ( if they happen ;) ) and maybe even used to record small g2g's between us classmates. In short - use this space to do anything you think is related to our college life. we would actually prefer to see you post candid rants rather than formal perfectly drafted posts.


I'm sending out invites right now, you might have to create a Blogger/Google account if you don't already have one to start blogging . Also, i'm taking an effort to reach everyone in our batch, but in case i missed anyone/you, please mail me and i'll add you in immediately. Mail me/buzz me on YM if you have any difficulty posting, or anything else. The group blog project has just taken off .. i'll consider it half done, if/when we get everyone to join in and follow the blog and it'll be 'complete' if everyone chooses to contribute in regularly with posts/comments. I know getting a supersuccessful response is going to be very tough (knowing our class...), but we'll even settle for something like... say.. a few people forming a core group to update regularly and the rest of them following the blog, interacting through comments etc.


Let me suggest some post ideas, for a start you could post about your thoughts about the last few days of college, i'm sure we'll all have lots to say on that topic. you could summarize your college life, diss people you hated/people who you think sucked and maybe thank people who helped you/were good.

More later ..

@all: try and shock/surprise us with a 'good' response. that would be so soopercool...
