Memories. Part 1

Today I am being reminiscent about the two most memorable years of life - my last 2 years of Engineering College.
Well these years are always memorable for everyone mostly because of 3 reason- best friends for life, first love and thirdly something crazy that we have always dreamt of and end up achieving it.

Mine too were very similar having all three reasons in somewhat equal share but the first and the last reason were sort of interconnected. This is for my best friend Anant and the best two years of life that we had. Yes I've written countless blogs and experiences with him but I guess that's the essence of our experiences and friendship.

Can we leave the pre-presentation stage and jump to the presentation preparation?
That night in the balcony when we were sipping beer with max belting out some amazing numbers on his guitar(:p) we had a call from the connected and Bakra that they won't be accompanying us to the presentation to Bangalore. You were shocked and scared and I burst out laughing. Though we had expected it, it was a matter of concern as most of the teams had 5 people at the presentation. That night we had made up, experience and certificate counts. Nobody believed us. And why would they? We had lost twice. Our designs were utter failures. Elementary mistakes where we couldn't sum up 2+2 to form a design. Nobody from our college had ever made the cut.
We sipped our beers, breezed past the presentation and just sat there in the balcony feeling the soothing breeze.

BUS Journey:
We had a bus from Pune to Bangalore at 4pm the next day. We had apparently booked the most luxurious bus possible for travel but is the legroom ever enough in any bus for 6 footers? The journey began. We nervously kept going through the presentation again and again just to find some error through the bus until it got dark. The bus stopped at a beautiful (:p) dhaba for dinner as you would expect on a highway. The food was impeccably spicy with chillies sprewed all over the curry, we ended up eating nothing. We decided to forget that over our sleep.

Bang!!!!!
