Of YEG Life - A Tribute......

Lazing in my cozy couch today with a laptop in tow , i cant help but  recall my old jee preparation days.It goes like this-

First of all , let me clear to non ex-YEG students, YEG stand for Yugantar Entrance Guru. Probably started to provide coaching for competitive exams. Maybe not.

If you have YEG , you have iit ( copy cat reso). such a lame line. Just opposite of what a ideal coaching shoud be!.  The day  i landed in YEG, i setup a mind, i would not accept a inch less then IIT. IIT-B for sure. Dont giggle for my present. I can still flshback, our first class was chemistry. Kumar Gaurav Sir. Mole Concept. Class went like dozing and snoring. Hardly got through it. We gave WTF look. Subsequently attended maths and physics. But trauma with maths. Still some people find hard to get Vinod sir's language. But one thing was sure, he was a true and adorable. Always tries to give his best. Not to forget BTech in mining engg from IIT Kgp. Afterwards, physics, quite satisfied with it, not with subject, but with teacher. Never to say i still find physics ridiculous.


Giving a struck to my undeniably expert mind, i guess we were 28. Names required??. No keep it short. Free flow of classes underwent. As days passed, our clumpsy brain was getting some of their teachings. So we got piles of DPPs. Who cares, we hardly practise or solves. Needless to say, we were not a bit serious about our careers. Regreted afterwards. Ofcourse i did but not now. Things went, performed many activities which were not adviseable  for students undergoing jee/pmt coachings. But hell we did. Mandli's in time lags between two classes.Coming of babu sir (chemistry one). He was good for nothing.  Inspirational classes from hota sir, antly it left any impact on us. His classes were so motivative that even a ass will transformed by it. But not we. Worser then ass ?. NO.


Retained in hostels in divali vacation, for coachings. Forced to skip tours. Commerces thought we would be fucked up here. But they were kids to know that one of our brave friend made out twice with his fellow gender opposite mate. Tv room gets close only the time we were in classes. Movies after movies. Sleeping at 4 or 5 (AM!!). Hided mobile phones. Bastard wardens. Sometimes mohan sometimes sudhir. Special buffets in mess. Thanx joshi. indeed. Dorm crickets. Fortunately someone's among us birthday fell in these days. So the kingfisher bottles. Not to exaggarate, a female hands brought it. Helpfull friends (girls). It was good one, partied in class. Given farewell to seniors, rememarable one. Class 11th volatiled . Hopefully we all passed. cheers.


Then arrived 12th. Very soon. This time if  there was anythinf after coachings, then it was VOLLEYBALL. Yes volleyball. Hosteller v/s dayscholar. Commerce v/s science. Coaching v/s non-coaching. Boys v/s girls ( NO!!) . Alike, pragati's service was good one. English classes of kanchan mam. Ghosh! mam is in FB. Oral fights with joshi, for just being late in the mess, eventually joshi  was not in position to stand a physical one. Khichdi was being cooking up between some couples. Lovely friends, lusty friends. Few crushes.


Mohabe mam. Her lunatic repeatations of things. Kind teacher she was. Hats off. Feeling pity. Mounting pressure by sudeep sir and way up above his quality of judging the students and their capabilites. As he thought i am good for nothing, so he proved. But, for him, i have lot of respect in my eyes. Midnight maggies. Study table loaded with killing books. Dorm-4. Girls you never conveyed us your dorm nos. So no mention of it. Brilliant Tutorials. DPS Rishali. Civic Center. Bus fun. Annual day extravagence.


Funny harassment of akash poddar. More credited were sumeet. ajay, nitin and sachin. Leg pullment of sumeet. Versatile creature he was in all illegal sort of activities. Beggness of nitin. Silly and childish talks of ajay. Deepak's verge of watching Tv. Indolent gagan . Sachin- our whore. never mind. Sunny funny. Shruti jaiswal- short height but high fight. Shilpi and her careness. Sarthak for his arguements. Loud enough to hear niket's soft words (very soft). Virendra , deepika and aditya in their solitude. Simeerdeep a charming turban boy. Prasant for his sheerness and pravin for attitude. Deepmala- hardworking. Pooja , priya and apurva for just being in YEG. Gaurav-me- for his pre jee hardwork(self praise i know) and his crush. Aman- untraceable guy he was. payal for funny rakhi incident. Tanushree- i didnt understood you yet. sorry.


As the D day was approaching closer, classes were getting longer. We started to slogg our ass in studies. Really some of we did. Board exam preparations. Nights were days and vice versa. Tea and nasta at sharp 11 pm. Working as tranquiliser for sound sleep. We studied till our balls giving out. Finally the JEE came but what it brought. No happy face and lot of broken hearts. It was tough time out here. But friends do make the journey worthwhile.


PS- Let me know if i slipped any 'worth to mention' incidents or things, in the vary form of comments.
PS- I hope it would have brought a wide grin on your face.

Of Short Glimpse Of 3rd Sem...{meta 2009-13 batch}

Sem was more about shifting from gound floor to second. More about attendence rather then kwoledge(but who cares). Started with attitude of being senior( even didnt conducted interaction party, gave bit relaxation to juniors). No slidings. gender ratio still 10:1. Started with sudden burst of ambition. A sudden notion of being the best. A sudden thought of ruling the world.

Attending lectures, striving 2 keep eyes open- mostly. Rifling thru d library stacks.Witnessed a good fresher( credit goes to seniors..bit of us). Head-load and monotonous syllabus[ add to owes boring teachers]. pranks wid geo mam. Un-noticing escapes from OD classes. CCM powerpoint presentations BTW teacher was awesum, compressed syllabus. Entering late inside the classes wid rolled up sleeves and unbuttoned top buttons. BS Grewal troubled us through his problems.How we can forget piles of photocopies.


Sudden onrush to grab benches[some appeared early in college just for that] .Some people got paired up. some decided otherwiswe. some still struggling. Canteen. Hanotiya. Movies. Malls. Proxies. Metso inaugral[ for most people it was rememberd for fruity n samosa]. 'Always stand up for gg' attitude. Devoted tym for pool[ gossip and yahoo]. Parking chit chats. Leg pulling. Ball eating phrases. Some guys went gym[ including me, so what if i attended jus 1 week].

Peer group circles. tight knit friends. Aimless talks.Uncharted hikes.Bluetooth hails. CT's in vain[ luckily not all]. some find way to pt edu. some to meridian studies. some still coping up to clear Btech anyhow[ some fantazing about detain years]. GPL's, sometym widout causes. demanding for treats, showing of empty wallet.Lost avenger; gettin it back.  Tried hands in sports like TT, badminton, cricket, football. Missed calls.

Mixed feeling of chirpy and lonliness. sprawling on center garden. Tiffin boxes, it hardly takes seconds to finish [lavish eaters we are:)]. pros and cons of almost everything that can pop up in tiny mind. computer lab{ googling, fb, random}.BBA{ Back Bencher Association}.

Finally  endsem approached. cock-sure paper of CCM.Endsem ended. Vivas went, days gone. So indeed 3rd sem ended in its own way. Memories remained, memories lasted....


PS- loving it all...living it up!:)
PS- Outside campus fun, didnt mentioned. It varies from person to person{ hostalites, localites, PGites}
PS- Maybe relevent to non-meta students.It can help.
