Awesome topic Aman dear!! Kudos!!👏 Hats off to Aanaya who's the main brain behind this topic!!👏 College life...well it was a mixed bag of various experiences!! It helped me to grow mentally, be matured & understand certain realities of life both harsh & sweet. I am one of the most lucky person who escaped ragging!!😉 At first i was admitted to Rani Birla College, here in Kolkata with English Honors but soon realiszed I'm not liking the subject & got admitted to Loreto College with History Honors. By the time I left Rani Birla the ragging did not take place & by the time I came in Loreto, the ragging was done with. My first class was quite nice..ours is a strict girls convent college but with loads of disciplines to follow as we had to produce an absent letter if we bunked a particular class ...Class bunking was not a gr8 idea as I loved to attend the classes that were so nicely conducted. We had to do presentations regarding a topic which was attended buy Sister Tina ( our principal...a very strict lady ) & the other deppts. I have a very fond memory of our History Dept arranging a grand seminar commemorating the 100 years of The Parition Of Bengal which held in Victoria Memorial. I got the opportunity to sing in the program& felicitate our honorable education minister of West Bengal who was the chief guest. I participated in various occasions...whether it was a slum survey, attending Old age home, blood donation camps...& also participated in a drama of Aristophanes's " Birds". We shared wonderful bond with our professors who were so helpful. I remember at the end of our Part 2 exam our head of the department Mrs Roy had organised a department party at her residence where all the other professor of our dept had cooked evening snack & dinner for us..we had a blast!! How can I forget the day of our fare well when I wore a silk saree & got great compliment from all. I got one of my best friends..Madhurima from college..& I being a complete chatter box & singer...got the title of Radio Mirchi Live😆😆😆..Now that I'm out of college life I understand the teachings sister Tina gave us " to juggle all your commitments"...which if some one follows becomes the winner. I owe a lot to my college!!😊
