I observe some things. I realise others.

If I keep writing posts at the speed I am, I’ma run out of material soon. So it’ll be back to the one post every 15 days thing. But let’s not think about that. Let’s just enjoy it when it’s coming. So, this post is about some observations I’ve made and some realisations I’ve had over the past couple of weeks.

Observation 1: I’m always a part of the coolest group in the class. Sadly I’m the un-coolest of the cool members. So it basically ends up with everyone greeting me just to know where the other actually cool members of the ‘Cool Gang’ are. I’m just the lucky guy who got a place in the cool gang only because the actually cool members needed somebody who could make notes, projects and other things for them.

Observation 2: When you enter college, you’ll find yourself shaking hands with every second person who passes by you. Best part is, you have absolutely no idea who they are and how they know you. But you still shake hands as if you guys are chaddi buddies.

Observation 3: You’ll find yourself nodding and smiling at people whom you absolutely hate or are jealous of. As soon as the person passes you by, you say ‘asshole’ in your head. And guess what? He’s doing the same behind you.

Observation 4: You’ll be standing in the college ground looking at a hot chick. A couple of seconds later, a very lame looking guy will come and start talking to her. Then, together they’ll go to the canteen. After some days, you’ll get so used to the ritual that you won’t even ask the question – “Why him? Why not me?”

Observation 5: There will never be any hot chicks in your class. They will always be in the other section. And they’ll have at least 3 girls around them at all times. And when you’re unlucky, you’ll even have a couple of guys talking to her. Basically, if you’re thinking you’re gonna talk to her when she’s alone, you might as well start finding a new girl.

Realisation 1: When you see a couple of guys walking together and holding hands, you donot point at them and laugh your ass off. It’s not funny.

Realisation 2: When your coloured communication teacher asks you to stand up, you don’t stand up and start singing the National Anthem. He’ll not really appreciate it.

Realisation 3: Asking for another sheet in a test while almost all of the class doesn’t know anything doesn’t do a lot of good. The teacher might like you but the students certainly won’t appreciate it. Bottomline is, the teacher is only there for one semester. The classmates are there for 3 years.

Realisation 4: Hoping that the maths teacher wouldn’t notice your accounts copy open when you’re sitting on the first bench doesn’t go a long way in proving your intelligence.

Realisation 5: Racing with your college principal’s Endeavour while you’re on your Activa and overtaking him 3 times from the wrong side isn’t the best idea you’ll have. You should rather focus on the road so you can turn on the turn where you have to turn to reach your college (wtf?). Otherwise you might just end up having to turn back and travel an extra kilometer. However, you will have the satisfaction of beating your principal in the race and bragging about it in the class.

P.S. – You totally have to download this new web browser for Windows called Google Chrome. It’s minimalistic, clean and fast. And I think it’s got pretty much everything that Mozilla Firefox does. And if you like it, go thank The Ruhi because her Tumblr is where I first read about it.
