Never knew things would fly so fast here in Bengaluru, not that I hate when time flies, but it did seem too fast. Now I am going to use the most common phrase mentioning this year as "Roller Coaster" ride, met new folks, some I liked, some I din't. For the ones who are on the evil list, no offence folks, that's who I am, if I like a person I make sure I do everything to be the reason for their smile, even if that involves cracking a joke on myself, just anything.
If anyone of you see your name in this blog entry, then you have at some point of time made a mark in my life
Uddipan Dutta - Pocket sized dynamite. My Brother from far North East. A glorified jerk with a heart, a combination I thought would never exist. Green revolution and global warming enthusiast. He takes pride in pissing off people and zipping their mouth. Talks of finishing blood lines and family trees. Please advice caution.
Prateek Singhai - He is the epitome of humour, he himself does not know what it means to bring a smile on someone's face, and this guy does this on a regular basis. A passionate Indori, will do anything in exchange of 'sev parmal'.
Vineet Joseph Kumar - Evil, Pure Evil. This lad is good at politely saying how shameless and jobless you can be, which each one of you would gladly smile and accept as if he has just praised you. Has a knack of identifying stupidity at an alarming speed. Warning, Please don't piss him off, he has very low tolerance for stupidity !
Vikas Korjani - Can be irritating, but to say the least, he knows when to talk and what to talk. He has been there for me when i needed help. I will remember this!
Jatin Chaudhary - Well being the chairperson of Nawab Mukti Morcha, this guy can be a douche at times but he is good at saying "you suck" on the face, for which people thank him. On the other hand, he is the guy I would go to when I am confused and need genuine advice. He has been more like an elder brother I did not have.
Rahul Venkataramani - Yes, Mr. Maanik Baasha, well I do not know if I have a 'paandu kismat', but I was forced to be his alarm clock for a whole year. Apart from his disturbing sleep habits, we kind of share the same tastes in terms of music and literature interests. Top Guy!
Maninya - Not sure if I should say this, but what the hell. She knows her game, carries herself well and can be wicked. Has been a ray of hope to all the tambrahms who have taken the road less taken. If in future when machines rise against humans, we both are going to kick some serious metal butts. Because we both believe that the 'FORCE' is always with us! *hi 5*
Sangeetha - My initial impressions of her were that of an innocent and sweet girl. Well I was right about the sweetness, but definitely not innocent. She knows what being independent is all about. I was impressed!
Amrita Kaur - First impressions can always be wrong, and I was vindicated of this fact with this bindaas person. She is like the little sister I do not have. Good company, good critic and she makes this amazing bhel poori!
Sumit - Our very own version of Peter Parker, there are very few on this planet whom he tolerates. Utters words that make sense in situations deemed as senseless.
Priyadarshini - The poor soul who has tolerated me for close to a year. Insanely down to earth and extremely good at sleeping. But on the bright side, a good friend!
P.S: If your names do not appear in this blog post, please do not be under the impression that you have made it to the other list. It's just that I am lazy a** ranter. For those who shall not be named, Winter is coming!
Thanks to the people mentioned above, I will always cherish my first year at IIIT Bangalore.
Disclaimer: Those who think I am no one to judge people let me make this very clear, this is my blog, my perception and my ideas. You would be mistaken if you thought you had a say in it!
Later,
Karthik Kunjithapatham
