How time passes is never understood by anyone. Before we think time flies by and we feel that how things move so fast that one does not even realize when those things were actually there.
I know you people must be wondering what I am talking about. By saying all this I am referring to a new chapter in my life and in all the freshers' lives - University. This is the stage where the warmth and care got in school is left and a new and more independent environment is found. No more running behind the students by their teachers and telling them to perform better than they have. No more short breaks to look forward too after long classes which though boring at times are being missed by many.
These are just a few points about the change I remembered at this point. There are many more feelings that are being felt and observed by others as they start this chapter in their lives. For me this whole experience is a brand new one and still so much is happened that it seems ages since I first stepped into university. The fact that this note was also written was because of the various observations that where made by me and my friends at university.
One cannot help but notice the freedom got in university which is totally missing in most schools at least in this part of the world. Students in university are free to decide for themselves and can choose almost everything from their class timings to how they want to spend their day at the university. For most this is a thrilling experience as they get to do what they want without any objection from the teachers and other members of the educational institution as seen in school. There are always two sides to everything and hence this new found freedom may be good or bad depending on how one wants it to be.
The other noticeable thing was that making friends is very important and not necessarily a quick process. For some this was easy as they are natural charmers while others struggled in this aspect. Even the aspect of having a co-education form of educational system was new to many people while others where used to this. Due to this a new meaning of the word "love" could be seen in the whole duration of the first term spent here. At most times this was found to be hilarious but at a few particular times very weird.
Friendship in the beginning was seen amongst small groups of people hanging out together but as time passed on everybody got to know more people around them and hence these small groups though there were not as rigid as before. Everyone started feeling comfortable with others and things started going smoothly.
The custom and a compulsory ritual of making the freshers do all kinds of wacky stuff by their seniors or rather "ragging" was not to be seen in this university of ours. Seniors welcomed us very easily and in a friendly way rather than using other methods mentioned before.
This first term in university taught me a lot of things and was a really enjoyable experience. Hence I am looking forward to the next one. Do you people feel the same?Tell me about it and write about any other experience you might have got till now.
Till the next time...cya!!!!!
...and you thought you were right?
