17+5

"Enough talking now, come here," Blitz said to me as I walked towards the room. "Yeah, put it down now," Lay and others started speaking. I put my phone on the right side of the mousepad. They took me out by the hand in the lawn."It is not needed. Let's just celebrate peacefully," I heard …

Essay and Samosas

I slept a little before eleven yesternight. I had missed the morning routine the day before yesterday and the wrongfulness was lingering in me. It was not a ace day either. I studied lesser staying at the hostel. I got late in the morning and on holidays, the library gets full. Other yearites who have …

Ace Day

Ask me the time I woke up today and I will tell you six o'clock. It was 5:58 AM when I double tapped Hailstorm's screen. I got out of bed without second thoughts and went to the washroom. It was 6:14 AM. I, for a few seconds thought about what to do next—whether to practice …

Knock, Knock, Knocking

September 2 was Ganesh Chaturthi. Ganesh Chaturthi fell on September 3 eleven years ago, in 2008. I remember the day because I went to school and my friend and I discussed, in the school playground, how private schools see a holiday on the day. It was sunny, and we were on the football field, near …

Chocolate Heaven

It was a quarter to eight, on Monday evening, when my phone rang. One of the seniors of the Technex Team informed me that we were going to the Design+Content team party. I had to reach Morvi in half an hour. I called the second yearites and worked their trip to the venue and back. …

Dining Out

It was Saturday. Gio was giving us a treat for his birthday. We decided to leave the hostel at around 8 PM. We always try to go to a new place to eat. I like to explore new restaurants and menus. I opened Google Maps and started searching for restaurants. After reading reviews and ratings …

Pizzeria Pizzeria

Pizza ain't my favorite food, unlike the millions. Yet I tasted it two times in the past four days. A day after the wild night, Corty made a plan to go Domino's. Corty is the guy from Civil Engineering and the more I will write about him, he will deviate. He is a very eccentric …

Singh’s Plight

Our hostel mess has been off for three days. I have been eating in the canteen since then. Yesternight was the last time for it too. Canteen is off today and will be like this for a few days. After the shutting down of these holy places, we are left here in this yellow-colored faded …
