How did we really spend the holidays?

I still remember the date.. It was April 29 (or was it April 27?).. Yeah.. That is when we finished off the last of the much dreaded ‘competitive exams’ , the A.I.E.E.E. exam.. But, lets not go into that.. 

It was time for partying and partying we did.. We went to the Taj two times, the Taj Nature Walk three times, and Sadar every two days.. I calculated that, on an average, I was out of my home for about 7 hours daily.. But, that is not a big deal.. After all, it was our right to spend every waking moment on blackjack and softdrinks.. 

There were quite a few farewells, and some birthdays in between.. 

Then, there was the usual scooter-trash roaming around, lots and lots of photographs..
Some tension regarding the admission to colleges/coaching classes.. Stuff like that..

And yeah, we did go to some trashy movies now and then..

But, my question is, what is it that we really did?

Okay, we did all of the things written above and some of us started blogging but where’s the crazy stuff in there? What is it that was unusual? 

I don’t know the answer.. I wrote this post for the sake of writing a post..

But, you know, one of the many wild, wild ideas in my brain as to how we could’ve spent these holidays is, we could’ve shot some videos.. like the ones they have on College Humor (Click here to view them..).. These are fun videos.. We could’ve shot them effortlessly.. Like I told you, these are wild, wild ideas..

Then, there’s this site called Revision3, another great site for some neat entertainment..

Not many people know this, but College Humor was started by two high school pals, studying in different colleges, to stay in touch with each other and exchange some real great stuff..

Like I told you, these are wild, wild ideas..In fact, I’ve got some more of them which I’ll post soon..

College’s gonna start real soon..  :p .. I don’t know if I’m happy about that or really depressed about that.. I haven’t figured that out but now that they’re over, I can’t wait for the next holiday season..

A trip to M.N.N.I.T.(Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology) … more commonly known as N.I.T. Allahabad….

The main building

This was some day… A trip to one of India’s foremost engineering colleges… Man.. I was humbled..

While the buildings themselves cannot compete with more modern, ‘well equipped’ private engineering colleges that have opened these days.. the sheer scale of the laboratories, the vast parks, and the great importance of this place these days left me in awe… 

I was lucky enough to snap some photographs in and around the place… Check them out… 

 The hostels have been fortified like forts…

Gardens such as this one in and around the buildings contribute to the great environment.

This is, you guessed it, the “Transportation Engineering Laboratory”…Man…Labs all around!

I’ll publish some more photos of the place after some time…

Man…I had fun pretending to be a student there…
