oN Campus

When I reached college that day at 10 i could see that a lot of people had turned up , so many cars , so many bikes . But the college was empty , with not even a soul to be seen around . But i knew they were there , battling with math and logic problems , wrestling to get the vocab and comprehension under control . Then finally they slowly began to disperse , and the wait for the short list began . The mood was one of mild tension , but since it was only the first company , i'd have to say the mood was positive all around . And it helped that almost everyone who appeared for the test was shortlisted .

Now began the preparation for the interview . Nithu was tensed and asked for my help , which i ofcourse gave away without much prompting ( ofcourse to any girl ) . It was fun reading the HR forms completed by most of them . Anitha had written that her hobby was to take care of the fish in her fish tank . Well then I began to help rajani write the longest sentence of her life.. which naturally no one could comprehend.

Then at 9 , everyone clambered into the CGPU hall and they dropped the bombshell ... 197 placed...And they began reading out the names of each .. the list had very few surprises , with everyone who would be expected to be place amond the first lot were picked . Mag got , minu got , aish got , the family - punjabi, nami and bugz got .. I was happy ... But i could see a lot of disappointed faces...
Better luck next time guys..

I hope i can atleast appear for one of them...
