COFFEE!!!!!!!

Coming to SIMC, I noticed a trend.- strange, funny..-no!!
Just a trend..something we all follow..consciously..unconsciously..directly..indirectly..
It's the trend of "night coffee"..
A night cult that's easily, effortlessly and smoothly become a part of all of us..
Smiles, shining eyes, overexuberant hugs and hellos..we all float about in our coffee-high..
Is it just the coffee of the coffeeshop that makes us feel this way..or it is the after-effects of freedom from the rigours of the long stretching back-breaking hours of immobility on a 4-legged chair..???
Perhaps the latter..
Aye..Hot and  coffee..hot and chocolate....shakes..rule the roost in the monopoly driven SIMC market..
After the "mess-y" food..COFFEE SHOP seems straight out of paradise for us Lavale-ites..
And do we lap it all up..like year long hungry angry victims of "hollow-cost"...
It is a trend..yes..a time for bonding of the batch..a time for meetings..and some more meetings..a time to laugh..a time to play.a time for us..a time of us...
Looking back to the SIMC years..these coffee-moments will always shine on in my mind..
And I know..where these coffee-nostalgia-driven-moments-of-reminiscence would be concerned..I'll never be alone..
Coffee creates this strange unity amongst us..Makes us feel "belonged"..a part of the whole..
Where we stand together."ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL.."

"LAVALE" LIFE..

all thanks to mr.president(of the students council) to get me started..the lure of the "project status" worked it's charm on me for sure..the central theme of my scribblings here would ,definitely for me ,be about campus life and our life in genral here ,at the top of a pune hill "looking down" at "city of blinding lights.."
maybe this "isolation" (as our batch tries to romanticise it as)...serves the more important indirect purpose of bringing us the MEDIA TRAINEES closer ,to form a more cohesive bond..
"far from the madding crowd" , we the SIMC-ians live, work, laugh, cry, play,sit idle,dream,ideate,talk shop,think up random topics for mindless conversations,breathe in the clean unpolluted scent of coffee beans(the coffee-shop..not the nescafe satchets of the "mess-y" mornings)- as one big yappy-happy "family"!!!
2 years here in this campus is worth all kaleidoscope of emotions, all hues of distinct moods, all rays of sunshine and the silver lining of the clouds...
it's a 2 years of life..worth livin't up!!
