KJC Memoirs

College days are over and Kristu Jayanti will only be memories now, except for the exams that still need to be scheduled. The farewell on 19 April was really cool. As we hear it, Deepu and co did a great job in organizing and then making us feel like kings of KJC. Thank you friends. We'll miss you; but we'll remember u too. Always!

 

Hmmm, how many cried now on that (ceremonious) last day! Ceremonious, cuz the actual last day of class was 29/04/2008. It was heartbreaking to realize that we'll leave KJC. We had a crying party earlier; when Gopu sir left towards the end of last semester. Now this time, it's all of us leaving each of us. It's indeed hard. Sajeesh, man I love you so much. Your tears nearly drenched my eyes too. You are the one who's been the same Sajeesh that I have always seen. You are one friend I'll always bank on. Once again, I'll miss you. Thanks for being so nice Sajeesh.

 

Br. Libin is my new found friend. Though I nearly hated you in the first and second year, in the third year, I came to like you so much. I think when u became a little naughty; u got your rhythm to be nice. When you are too holy, and innocent, it's difficult for other pple. Like they say, it's difficult to live with a saint. And you cry huh? That was very revealing. It also shows how nice a person you are. And of course, you told me that it was your best birthday celebration. I am glad; our little idea brought a lot of joy to you.

 

Shynge's tears came flowing as she looked slowly and constantly into my eyes. It was very sweet to see those tears rolling down her cheek. I am not being a saddist here. I was on the verge of crying, thank God, someone came distracted me from that. ';-).

Oh what class was ours!!! One bunch all different people. I had a different set of friends each year. First year, it was friends with individuals. But later, it was friends as a group. Second year also gave me another experience. Being the class rep. But trust me it was touch. Many complain that BA III wasn't close-knit as a class. But I must apologetically admit that the examples we had, was no better. Guess what could make me say that I nearly hate some teachers. Power is an issue everywhere. So was (IS) it in KJC. But, women crazy about power? It's the first time I see it outside a convent! ';-(. I am not trying to kill the spirit here; rather, I trying to be honest. At least in this forum. When sadists become teachers, they'll want assignments written a hundred times. They'd ensure that u write the assignments more than two times. They'll ensure that you collect your hall ticket from fr. Augustine and u face as much trouble as possible.

 

Anyways, I thought I'd share the good things. But the end was a little bad. Cuz second year was a struggle for me. It wasn't easy to do the things. When all are trying to kill what you try to do, it was very discouraging. I think what all of us need to do is encourage one another. We need to put down our subjective feelings home. We can't afford to shout at people and be doing things to please our ego.

 

The last day was the toughest. Just to realize that I can't sit with my "Angels" anymore. The last bench that was always mine. The privileged last bench that gave me some of my really good friends. I'll need to sit another day and update this data.

 

Thanks for taking the time to read so far. Dear friends, all the best for your life and career. May God's abundant blessings be always with you. Love you all.
