At VGSOM...

- by Kanishka Bhambhani *

On a new path at VGSOM I have started a tread,
New learning, new people; I meet,
As I have moved one month ahead.

Introduced to Novel concepts, new theories,
Sen, Krajewski, Libermann, Foster n Pandey
Mind gets boggled,
Dunno what to say..
Professors Gautam Sinha,Kalyan charavarti, AN Sadhu;
Shantanu Ray, KK Guin, PH Das, Sangeeta Sahney n
Prabina Rajib Ray
Gods Gospel for us,
Whatever they say.

With ten subjects lectures to attend,
And Quizzes, assignments, n case studies to present,
Balance n routine of life go haywire,
With a new TO- DO list everyday
We try to get out of the Quagmire,

Sharing n caring at the hostel,
Trying to digest the mess food, morsel by morsel.
At 3 am, to rejuvenate - playing badminton, TT n volleyball,
After the late night jig, Speed cycling;
As we rush in the morning to the Academic Hall.

Discussions (Bakar) n gyan - bonding with the odd 120,
Till wee hours in d night,
Sleeping only after we have seen,
The morning suns sight.
Hunger pangs at 2 am in the night,
Lead us to eggies, or Cheddis,
Try hard to refrain as we might.
The birthday bashes come along at midnight,
Some things that offer us the much needed respite!!

And at Kharagpur, as we try n not go insane,
It rains, rains and rains,
Dunno whether it's a boon or bane,
But definitely a pleasant change from Delhi - dry n mundane!

A rocky journey,
Blind turns ahead,
A roller coaster ride,
This road that I tread.
Using the forecasting model, I portend,

Looking forward to above, no reason to moan,
New bonding, new life style.
But Before I reach the milestone,
Waits ahead to be tread a long long mile...
