The college started with dullness. There was a frustration of the way I got admission in the college and sorrow of loosing 'my childhood love'. All the interest in the studies was dried up. We (Abhay, Nilesh, sometimes Nitin and Ritesh and I) used to go to the college by bicycle. Of course! We had motorcycle but our shame of joining Jagadamba Mahavidyalya did not allow us to ride by motorcycle. Shyam lives at Achalpur, close to the college so there was no way for him to compensate that shame.
Nilesh is the guy who has created history in Jagadamba Mahavidyalya by going on strike. I could remember that day vividly when he won the college election. Before wining election he was surrounded by us but after winning election he was surrounded by ‘special persons’ (most of them were on internship of politics). Nilesh was always cordoned off with those people like the PA around minister and were always in a hurry.
Shyam is the person who created history by scoring distinction marks in Jagadamba Mahavidyalya. His one eye is permanently closed since his birth. I never dared to ask him. This is the thing which I could never do - hurting good people.
In spite of this fact, he has a powerful brain and good machine generated like handwriting.
I and Abhay did not tamper the college history. In fact our existence was limited to only to the canteen. We had the worst luck factor and we use to say that our luck has no factors! This does not mean that we were pessimist but we have acquired this technique of accepting any kind of situation and fact.
Such wired combination of people together had created a different compound in the college which could be found only outside the college gate every time!
To forget the past I started engaging myself in study, teaching programming languages in a private institution and coaching to the 7th standard students Math and English. I could earn 300 rupees by starting these activities in the evening till night after attending the lectures in the college. This was not my first earning source. I earned money first time in my life by sticking posters of advertisement of a computer institution. I earned 50 rupees by sticking 100 posters from night 11 till late night 2. This does not mean that my parents were not providing me money. I was feeling shame to ask for money to my parents.
