We were 5 friends in Kanpur, 'paanch', and the core of 'triad' co-exists inside it. Sanjay Bose, Vivek Vikram Singh, Gaurav Diwedi, Himanshu Chaudhary, and me. All of us stood together in 10+2 and coaching years. We form the quintet at the front benches in the 1st year and the last benches in the 2nd year. We roam mainly in Coaching mandi, but our favourite market is Rahmani market in Kanpur till today.
Internet: I went to the Internet to surf for web counseling of AIEEE with Sanjay for the first time. The most surprising thing was the emails and pop-ups about a million-dollar lottery prize. I knew that it was a hoax. But the surprise does not end here. The faces of white Caucasian females on the screen amazed me. The underline heading was 'Make friends with beautiful girls in Kanpur'. I was completely taken aback by the question, "Where the hell are these girls, even if they exist in my city? " Till today, I have no clue about them.
Crush Story: There was a girl in our physics coaching with Anish Sir. She was beautiful and fair, like nothing I had ever seen by me till now, except Namrata Singh of class 10+2. No metaphor can describe her beauty to me. After the end of each class of Anish sir, only 20% junta remain in the class to talk or discuss problems with friends. She used to sit there for 10 minutes just chatting with her friends. In this short span of time, I used to gaze at her continuously. Such was her beauty that it mesmerized my mind. It was a daily routine for 1 year. Then came the IT JEE prelims examination in March 2004. There were 56 centers in Kanpur accommodating at least 500-2000 in each center. And she was sitting in the same classroom of the examination center. It was like one of the rare probabilities coming true. Alas, she was not selected for the 'mains' round. I noted down her roll number and checked her result before mine. That was the end of the crush story. It was like a beautiful dream that refreshed the soul and made memories sweeter. Also, I don't know her name and never attempted to..

Thought of the day: Stop being angry with life because it does not give what it cannot give.
Liked your crush story. It could have been something more. After all, by God's grace you both were in the same classroom (good that you didn't get distracted by her thoughts in the examination). Of course it was such a rare thing. And, I think probably that was also your last meeting with her.
ReplyDeleteShe would have done her Engineering from some college and made some boyfriends there (lucky they). You went to college (and got a branch) where girls were a rare breed (good for me at least, coz I always blush in front of them :D), got your IIT tag and made yet another sacrifice for it.
Thanks Jahanpanah for your comment. How true that "You went to college (and got a branch) where girls were a rare breed : Only an engineer can feel the plight of another engineer.Thanks buddy !!!
ReplyDeleteI had noted down here roll no. and still own that piece of paper. Still sometime I think to find her name by using RTI...wierd idea, but that is me only.
Well, best of luck. :D
