STARTING NEW LIFE AT BHU..

BHU gate Lanka

Finally after a hectic 10 day period in which I moved from Delhi to Varanasi twice and ran here and there continuously throughout,I am finally at peace.Getting admitted to BHU was like a dream come true for me.I have aspired to be a part of this prestigious institution ever since my childhood and the satisfaction I feel these days is hard to express by words.

The results were out in the first week of July and ever since then,I have been restless.I clearly remember how I spent two entire weeks,losing my sleep and being restless throughout.The restlessness is taking a toll on my body and I feel a little tired but as almost everything is settled now,there is no issue as such with regard to tiredness.Moreover,the excitement of living in a place like Varanasi is too much to overcome.It always had a very special part in my heart and now as I have got the full two years to live here,it is satisfying indeed!

Leaving the family  is never a happy affair and it is saddest when you leave for the very first time.My parents came to the station to see me off,which was necessary kind of,as I was leaving for such a long time for the very first time.When the train started,there were tears in their eyes as well as mine.As my train started to pass,I was waving hands and they were reciprocating in the same way,I felt like jumping down and running back to them.No matter how much we pretend to be tough,these moment bring tears in the eyes of almost every individual.I realized how strong the attachment is between a person and his parents.For some time,I stood at the gate waving hands,the station passed soon and with that the sight of my parents waving hands at me.....I don't display much emotions usually but at that moment tears were pouring down my eyes...

As I moved past,there was certain sense of joy.I was leaving my family for a good purpose,and my parents must have realized that their hard work in raising me was certain to be paid off.Arriving here in Varanasi for the second time in a week,I was full of joy and satisfaction.Last time I was in confusion,there was a lot of uncertainty regarding the admission and then there was a lot of nervousness too.But this time,there was pure joy!I went to the Vishwanath temple here at BHU.I have made it customary to visit the temple whenever I arrive.The hostels were allotted on the very same day but not before we had to be tired of requesting the authorities to do their jobs properly!

In the night being too tired we slept immediately so that the body returns to normal the next day.I am proud to be a part of this prestigious institution and being a student,I'll do my best to do justice to my position here.Being far away from home it is expected of me to excel for my own benefit as well as for everyone else surrounding me!

TRIP TO NAGALAND

Not too many people have Nagaland in their bucket list. Uncomfortable roads, poor transport system and a lot of corruption are a few factors which contribute to it. Added to it the stories of still active insurgency, Nagaland although an extremely beautiful hill state doesn’t manage to have a lot of tourism going on except for the Hornbill festival in December every year. But, my case is slightly different. Affinity towards the culture of the entire North east, plus a desire to visit not to tourist frequented places made Nagaland a definite must go. So, when I got time and saved some money, I immediately planned a trip to the beautiful hilly state with my girlfriend. The Nagaland express Since, th is was my second trip towards the hills of the North east, I was more confident and familiar with the sytem than the previous time. We booked a filght to Guwahati and from there we took a train to Dimapur aptly named :”Nagaland Express”. This trip was never meant to be pleasurable...

DURGA PUJA IN MY VILLAGE:AFTER A LONG TIME...

Being in the village certainly brings about with itself, a lot of goodies for me.I after some planning decided to spend my mid semester break,in my village.It had been quite some time since I spent a week in my village and hence a visit seemed almost necessary.Well there was not much time for a reserved seat and hence I was forced to spend my time sitting 16 hours in the train.It was not much of a difficulty and I reached Patna at midnight after starting from home in the morning.Well to my surprise I found the station clean and hygenic,something I did not expect,not in Patna at least!Well I then boarded a bus in the morning and the trip was more enjoyable than I had expected as the roads have become extremely comfortable nowadays in Bihar and I was home at around 10.People in the village are extremely nice and the contrast seems completely when you just arrive form a city like Delhi. Well it is festive season here and Durga Puja is everywhere in the environment.People are extremely...
