My first step into the college.....

When I got alloted to this prestigeous college, I was really thrilled at the same time worried about many things. As everyone knows it is a great opportunity to study in this college, it has got a good alumini and almost all of the students who were passed out from this college are in high positions but I was not happy. Some things are really disturbing me. Earlier I made a visit to the college, but unfortunately it was a Saturday, the college gates were closed. So I made an outside look to the college, where I have to spend the next four years. The very next day (I think so) was the admission day. We had to reach there at 9 am.

I along with my mother departed from home earlier in the morning, but reached there only at 9.30. I got the token and spend some time in the Amphi (dont know whether it is eastern or western). We had some chat with the seniors (the chettanmars of gec). The one thing that is really disturbing my heart is ragging. Even some friends told me that this college is ragging free, but I hadnt believed. The brothers of Gec too told about these things. They gave a proper idea of the college, the teachers and the academics. Another interesting fact was that, that was the golden jubilee year and we can expect a lot of cultural and technical programmes, but I was not in a situation to hear their words. I was thinking of many other things, and was totally unfamiliar with the GEC atmosphere.

Time ran away, and reached 11. The call for the next 30 persons came. We went to the seminar hall for the admission process. There the fellow brothers gave some papers and we are all set to fill them. I was totally irritated to sit inside that hall and it takes hours to get out of that hall. I didnt want to explain more. After admission we went out to search a good hostel for me. The brothers told me that it was better to look for a hostel now itself or it will be difficult to find one. We went to two or three places and finally got a good place, neat and clean, and a proper atmosphere to study. After that we went to canteen but we didnt get food. Then we were in search of a good hotel (but couldnt find any). Then my mother decided to do one thing. Go to home and had the food there. After a 1 hour journey I reached home and had delicious food. This was my first experience in this college.
