College for oppurtunities or fun?

“What was the best phase of your life?”

Ask this question to any elder fellow on this earth and it would rarely happen if he doesn’t mention his college days. This is the age when everything in life balances out. You seem to be living at the juncture of both skylarking days of movie, music, friends and parties and the other part where you juggle with your study responsibilities and deadlines .And if there was anyone if he didn’t balance both properly, he wouldn’t be immune to problems and regrets in later life.

Everyone in the group sitting silently on their chairs in canteen and someone fireworks a joke। The group bursts into the laugh with almost each one of them hurling their hilarious comments. The moment becomes real tough when the canteen food bill turns out to be indivisible wholly among the odd number of friends.

There is at least one person in every college who plays a musical instrument. And listening to the songs we never thought we would like makes you feel over whelmed.

When mood turns off and lectures start to throb your head, bunking is the most viable option. If done with friends it turns to be the most exciting and memorable experience…

Periodic exams attack with constant hurdles with mini tests and experiments hammering you up and down, left and right until you come out cleaner just like clothes from a washing machine. Every presentation and project challenges you with stage skills, voice toning, body language and determination to face some unexpecting questions from the audience. No matter if they flip you upside down, you make mistakes, you learn and that’s why it doesn’t go in vain.

Everyday in college helps you grow personally, socially and mentally.

If these are the things a college graduate is watching from the other side of the world he is bound to see himself in them and have nostalgic goose bumps running over his body.

It is necessary that college life is not full of enjoyment just as portrayed in some films nor should it remain a monotonous work of academy learning. It is indeed undoubting that worst things happen later in life when you fail to balance college days. And that becomes a sole reason for a person who has abstained enjoyment in college having regret that he didn’t enjoy or the person who didn’t avail the opportunities he had in his college days.

Opportunity is one thing that everyone should be looking for. There is something personality development can’t teach you and some that fun filled days can’t. It becomes our responsibility to absorb and enjoy the best of both worlds together and that’s why college life is what we make of it…
