Clash in the Class

This post is dedicated to the Bygone-days-Strifes we used to have in Engg college days between the 1st Benchers and the 2nd benchers.

So at the outset , let me begin with the intro of the dudes in the groups –

1st Bench – Amritam , Sayantan , Ajith , me and Swarupam ( The order covers the way we used to sit from R to L)

2nd Bench – Kaushik , Vikas , Anish , Shyam and Kishore ( Well ,barring the first guy , they never used to follow a sitting order ☺ )

And we took pride in calling ourselves the Rivals ( Although as a matter of fact , we were a bunch of good friends).

Yeah let me sum up what we all used to possess –

Kaushik – The proverbial do-gooder guy , always there to help a friend and yes to kill with his p.js..

Vikas – Another p.j. and pathetic shayari master. The “Universal Bhaiya” who used to treat every girl as his sister. This Marwadi was known for his “Kanjoosi” and for being one of the most helpful and decent guy.

Anish – Unimaginably simple and nice guy who used to fall for every other girl in the class ☺.

Shyam – He was a kid – we will talk about him only when he turns an adult ☺

Kishore – The only way to befriend this guy – Tell him you don’t like Michael Schumacher

Amritam – The funny guy with a real good sense of humour and the dirtiest room in the hostel ☺

Sayantan – Mr. “Tension-Bhadra” – who had a really good penchant for getting tensed at the slightest possible excuse. The Topper of our batch.

Ajith – If u r in the mood of getting someone angry with minimum effort , pick this guy. Neverthless a tailor-made partner in crime.

Swarupam – The weirdest fellow of the entire gang , no one could match his uncertain moves – the most unpredictable guy.

However words apart , we had the bestest of fun in those days – be it the Leg-pullings , the innumerable Mass-bunkings ( although sometimes the Mass included only these 2 groups ) , Naming teachers , Birthday celebrations , Playing DART in SB and NS class ( Thnks Vikas for reminding me of this activity ), Copying in Internals - the pranks stood with no limits.

Well 2nd benchers if u are thinking I have mellowed down while writing this , pause a moment – You will always be our Opponents. So stay in that way – to avoid complicating things and to Value the Tradition we have been following so far. Let’s not call ourselves “Friends” ☺ - we Hate you  All ☺

And now to the other readers if , at all, the words sound a bit ambiguous ( Am pretty sure , they do), let me put it in a simpler way – We are , actually, a little Complicated and with Us it’s always Complicated !

Cheers guys !
