a thought to ponder over...

The scriptwriter wasn't on a 2-month holiday...twas just that he was in a contemplative mood...reflecting on the various facets of the Kgpian's life in the campus. Perhaps, being at the helm of student affairs brought him closer to the feelings and emotions of his fellowmates and made him realize that perhaps the campus culture has changed a lot since he first set foot out here...ofcourse, as they say, change is the only constant thing in this world but pondering over some of the incidents that have occured in the last couple of months, makes me feel as if we are headed in the wrong direction...perhaps the rivalry among the students is no more "healthy" as we claim...perhaps the "tempo" is being expressed in a wrong manner...
today, when i walk down Scholars Avenue as just another student, i feel guilty at having failed miserably when this problem needed to be addressed and when i had the chance...although the adulations have poured in from all directions for a job they describe as "well done", but deep down in my heart i feel the void...although my conscience consoles me from within for having put in my best efforts...
my sincere wishes to the new council of office bearers and i truly hope that they serve the gymkhana and the institute in the best interests of the student community...and here's to all those kgpians who might be reading this post--above everything else, we are Kgpians...let's not destroy the campus culture by the petty rivalry that recently seems to have set in...
P.S: for those whom i kept waiting for two long months, a sincere apology from my side...hoping to remain connected to this blogworld coz the daily schedule has now become almost ten times less hectic!!!

I very much understand what u r refering to....but i feel apart from the brick incident(which was surely a cowardly act)there's nothing wrong with the "healthy" rivalry and "tempo" thats there in kgp...i think rather u should encourage the tempo thing bcoz at least to some extent it does help people spending lesser time infront of their good for nothing computers...The brick incident was act of just 1 person & u surely don't call that tempo..btw just between u and me ... i cherish the "rivalry" between patel and rk and its the "tempo" which sets me onfire on the field...and i am sure abt myself that i haven't done nething drastic which brings shame to the "tempo" hall or KGP.....So don't blame the tempo for every wrong act..because in inter iit too we only shout "KGP TEMPO HIGH HAI" and there also we face some "healthy" competition..

U have given ur best n thts wht matters. One or two minor incidents were bound to happen....irrespective of wht u do.
About the rivalry, well i do agree partly with Vivek.....its good to have some healthy rivalry brewing.....but unsavoury incidents shoudnt take place.
btw, wht happened to ur flashback part 2?

@reshma: even i hope KGP retains its culture...the post u've asked for will soon be up...let the ordeal(read examz) be over!!
@vivek: i sincerely hope you are correct and i'm wrong...
@DD: ya giving ur best is certainly what matters to me too...wud rather post something more interesting than flashback part 2...after all u've seen the entire series being shot live!!
