LONELY!

When I finished my schooling,I had a big dream of going to college,just as everyone.College was going to be FUN.As I entered my college,I had a feeling that I was a deer in a lion's den. Lions were none other than my seniors.I don't know  why but most of my friends were ragged(Ragging meaning asking one's name,which department we belong to and where we were from.Strict anti-ragging laws changed its meaning),except ME.

     As days passed by,I made some good friends(only boys!) with whom I used to sit,chat,eat,roam around inside my college,visit the toilet and what not.They started becoming part and parcel of my life.I used to feel bored when I reach home and would wait for the sun to rise the next day.I would also try to keep in contact with my buddies over phone or a social-networking site.I started enjoying each and every day of my college life

     Two years went by and I was in my third year.I was a guy with a shy attitude having a friends circle limited to only boys. Then came situations where I had to talk with girls.After a lot of hesitation,I began interacting with my class girls.Initially,I thought this was not going to be right.But with time I came to know that the girls are as cool as boys!
    In the beginning of my final year,we were on a college tour for 10 days.That was the best time of my college life in particular and in my life as a whole.I am in search of the best words to express the joy we had during our tour.We started the tour as friends and ended it as a family.The bond between us grew stronger and it is still inseparable.At that point in time,I had the mental and physical strength of facing anyone in the world,anyone!

    The tour came to an end but neither our joy nor our happiness.We used to come to to the college and sit in our classrooms only to hear that half of our lecturers are not present and the only thing we did : CHAT,CHAT,CHAT! Then an announcement regarding the project was done which reminded us that we were final year students.Doing project was fun and submitting things for the project only after the due date was more fun,be it  project documentation,presentation and even the project!.

             After the project submission was over,a thought struck my mind: My college days are over.My friends are no longer going to be with me.I cannot come to college anymore. These thoughts were driving me crazy.I had a feeling that I was in hell when those thoughts flashed in my mind. I began to feel weak  and dejected.

Now,my college days are OVER.I am confined to the four walls of my room with only my computer,my study table and my inner-self as my companions and thinking all day of my lovely friends,my college life and those beautiful moments we had together in our college.Even today,when I get to drive past my college, my 4 years fruitful flashback just zooms past me in seconds and my eyes become moist.

        My friends were my strength when they were with me during my college and now,when I look around I can find none.When I look back,I can see some of them way behind me.I have come a long way and I am feeling LONELY now!
