Hostel Life

" As kids we never realised what it is to be at home and put diwali lights or decorate Christmas tree ...

Now , the best gift we can give to overselves every festival is a ticket back home."

As a kid , the concept of hostel life always fascinated me. For me, it was the perfect definition of an adult. Finally , the time also came when I really had to leave my nest ; I had to leave the world which revolved around me ..just me! I could not digest the fact that I had to live amidst strangers.

I still remember the first day .. after 2-3 hours , a thought crossed my mind " why Momma is not calling me !!" .. and few seconds later my insides churned seeing the whitewashed walls .. different from my blue coloured room !..

But this phase is most important in one's life.This is the place which holds many memories, many mistakes , many lessons, many fights , many sacrifices and much much more.

This is the place where u break your cocoon and turn into a Butterfly ..! It teaches about life without books.

Many times you will feel that you don't have an ounce of strength left , but surprisingly you will wake up the next day with a smile on your face ..a little tired , a little scared but bright as always.

This is the place where I realised that some will stay with you no matter what ! ... while some need just a chance to run away.

Thus, this phase gives you a blueprint of outside world . It teaches you about people , about life , about friendship, about love and much more. At last , even amongst all the

diversities this phase is worth living for!
