Oh the ruthless ticking of the clock!

"Time is like a handful of sand - the tighter you grasp it, the faster it runs through your fingers" It can't be truer than this!

As I dread the end of my stay on this beloved campus, I get jittery and anxious. Beautiful, fun-filled and carefree moments spent here have painted the canvas of Apr'09 - Mar'10 in cheerful hues. The cocoon has grown so comfortable that the very thought of leaving it is painful. In my last post in mid-October, I had apprehended the beginning of the end. Now as 45 odd days separate us from the D-day, I am wilting. I try to make up for the short time by staying up late, taking in all possible experiences. But days are passing at the blink of an eye!

Just a few days back, I was anticipating Chaos and now the only conversation I can hear is of placements and Convo. I was all starry-eyed when I came here. Though I had not come as a student myself, I'll leave with the taste of being one, having had the brilliant chance to be a part of PGP, PMP and PGPX classes! A year well-spent with equal measures of fun and learning. I could have done a few things differently and in a better way.....but as someone wisely said 'hindsight is always easier than foresight', I am quite happy with the way things have turned out.

As I look at the picture of LKP on my desk-calendar, I realise that after a few days, pictures are all that will be left of my memories here. I won't be able to behold my favourite sight everyday. How I would miss it!! Those walks to the faculty block or library or classes or electrical and estate department! The walk from the New Campus to the Old. Meetings with friends in MSH pathways which turned into marathon gossip-sessions....all will soon be a thing of past.

 

The end is inevitable. I just hope to enjoy the next few days to the hilt and with the least melancholy. Is that possible?
