Hostlers: Today's Nomads
Hostel (if you have got the chance to experience it ever) is the most amazing part of one’s college life! Even after decades, the memories remain as fresh as of yesterday! Those late night gossips, playing cards till morning, going to college without sleeping even a second in last night, watching random movies whole night, bitching about the other college fellows and trying your hand at cooking late night, making Maggie or tea or just ending up with some unimaginable disastrous results!
Students from different and distinct parts of the country come together in a hostel like a family. Helping each other in times of need, sharing your culture and gathering knowledge about other person’s whereabouts, everything is so interesting! Hostels depict a mini-world, where all cultures, come together and share space! Hostel life teaches us something that is very necessary to have in us: ESSENCE OF ADJUSTMENT!
Many students before joining hostel are great tantrum throwers at their homes; who don’t know how to adjust with their younger siblings. Some just don’t care about their belongings, and some are so careless about their own stuff that it keeps on wandering here and there while in home!
But hostel changes EVERYONE! Though a little, or more, every student experiences some changes in his/her personality! When it comes to living alone, away from home, without parents or guardians, living with someone, and sharing a room, adjusting to the limit, all the brats transform into sweethearts! When they are exposed to REALITY of life, they realize the value of everything!
Many of my friends are living in a hostel, and some of them are loving it now…but one thing for sure, it has changed them a lot! Earlier some used to fight and throw tantrums for buying new phone or new dresses, but now, believe me; it doesn’t matters to them whether they’re carrying a Blackberry or a Samsung or a Nokia 1100! It doesn’t matters if they’re wearing Gucci or some Indian brand! It REALLY DOESN’T MATTERS ANYMORE!
I’m happy that I have clothes to wear, good food to eat, good facilities. I feel blessed, especially when I see ragged and naked children begging on traffic signals, I actually feel blessed! Living in a hostel exposes you to REALITY big time! Living without family is no doubt very tough. Some of my friends always thought they’ll make friends; life would be fun, living on your own, cleaning up your own room, no servants, no mom screaming for breakfast in morning! But now, whenever I ask them about their hostel life, they just say one thing: I miss school days more! I miss it when mom used to wake me up every morning; when dad used to scold me when every time I was late for school. I miss it when I fought with my brother for a piece of sandwich.
In hostels, they have no-one to wake them up and scream at the top of their head to make them get up. Nobody cares if they’re sleeping and missing college, or even dead! No-one scolds them if they’re late at college! Even their family members have changed since they’ve joined hostel, they’ve started LOVING them MORE! It’s not that they are not used to the love, but it’s that, sometimes, the family just becomes diabetically sweet and shower upon love, that they are not used to receive! DAMN! Some say they want their old folks back, scolding and screaming at them all the time; they want their old siblings back, who used to throw them out of the house, and not welcome them home with teary eyes every month!
A hostler change into a TRAVELER, a NOMAD rather, who roams from home to hostel, then again home at weekends or month ends or semester ends! A person always comes across REALITY or what you may say “REAL WORLD” once in his life…where all his friends may leave him…he may be left alone…and there maybe no one for his support. That is the time one realizes the importance of a FAMILY! Some people, who are always by your side no matter how far you are; the people who always make you feel special and important, no matter how less you visit them. So, always take care of your family…sort out disputes, make your parents feel special, take out some time for them, tell them you love them, and show them you care for them. God bless your parents…God bless you! One Life!

Mini Bollywood in Colleges!
May it be an engineering college or a commerce college or an arts one, all have their own mini-bollywood residing in them. Don’t know how? Read ahead and find out:
In colleges, only guys and girls with heroic and sexy figures are on the most popular list. Now every college have their personal Kareena’s and Aishwarya’s, also the infamous John Abraham’s of the college can be seen performing dangerous bike stunts outside the college campus to impress the new hot fresher aka Katrina of the college! But there do exist Salman’s, who are the brats and can beat-up anyone if they mess with them or their girlfriends!
The freshers of the college are ranked as per their marks in twelfth standard according to college faculty, but they are ACTUALLY ranked as per their looks by their seniors for their upcoming years in the college! Good looking girls can find million friends on first day of her college and many seniors approach them with hungry eyes on their very first day! By the end of the day, she ends up adding plenty of guys on facebook and replying to some hundred new messages saying, “Welcome to our college dear…for any help you can contact me anytime! Don’t feel shy sweety” and some really weird ones too like: “Hey b’ful chick, saw u in canteen 2day, btw Rocky hea…cute gal cya tomrw!”
While the hot and sexy girls are prime attention of seniors, but unfortunately the fresh cool-dudes of college are threat for seniors for they may steal their girl-friends! So they rag them and threaten them on the very first day! Filthy and abusive language is commonly heard while ragging, “Abey, bacha hai tu saale, teri maa *#$*%&^ shaanti se zinda rehna hai to hamare rules follow karne honge!” While maximum of girls are welcomed like sweethearts, but the guys are mostly exposed to unfavorable circumstances! Guys in colleges can be divided broadly into three categories:
1. The Sanjay Dutt’s (of Khalnayak) and Salman Khan’s (of Wanted) are the ‘BHAI-LOGS’ of the college! Any mess up or fight, and they will always be seen in the middle of the crowd. They usually have 2-3 girlfriends and some other chicks in row with them, just for the cool-look! And they are most of the time, surrounded by some comparatively less ‘daring’ guys who flaunt their courage all the time to keep their spirits up! But they too crave for Aishwarya’s and Katrina’s of the college and some fresher girls with sweet looks.
2. Then the second category is of the chocolate boys of college, basically the Ranbir Kapoor’s (of Bachna Ae Haseeno) or Imran Khan’s (of I Hate Love Stories) orShahrukh’s or we can also consider all the Emran Hashmi’s in this category! They pretend to be lover-boys and big time flirts and killers aka ‘shikaris’ but actually end up falling for one sweet girl.
3. And the third category comprises of Sharman Joshi’s (of Three Idiots) who are always busy mugging up the syllabus and studying all the time! To whom the terms like love, relationships, and sex are foreign and who think that talking with a girl is next to committing a crime! They can be easily found in college libraries or computer-labs, working on some projects or mugging up some more books!
Same is with girls…the three broad categories are:
1. First, the popular hot girls like Vidya Balan (of The Dirty Picture) who are mostly seen with the Salman Khan’s of college surrounding them in really short skirts and who are always flaunting their cleavage one or the other way! They end up just being an ‘entertainment, entertainment and entertainment’ for guys, and nothing more!
2. Then the second category is of ‘sweet and bubbly girls’, just like Preity Zinta (inKal Ho Na Ho!) or Kajol (in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai) who are in the eyes of most of the guys of college! Even the nerds can focus on them by fault because of their sweetness! They have lot of friends and they are always seen in the middle of a big flock of girls around them! They also become the common reason of fights among the guys!
3. And the third category is of SUPER-NERD girls, like Vidya Balan (in No One Killed Jessica), who are most of the time busy with their books and their computers and doing some random projects. They don’t even know the terms like ‘bleaching, waxing or even hair-cut’, they believe in “hidden beauty” and so they prefer “hiding their beauty!”
So, every college has a mini-bollywood, while some people play the characters, some just walk in and out as audience! Some are the heroes, and some villains, some are geniuses while some, total NERDS! Every college has a colorful life…so, go discover it in your college, add colors to your life, live to the fullest…one life!
