Like any other teenage girl, there is always an excitement about college. Yes! of course, everyone wants to be famous, be adored, and be talked about all the time!
Now, the first day I ventured in for counseling, it was rank 1879 on the call for Bachelors in Law admission in the then Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University in 2010 at Kashmere Gate! Yes! the old building.
I was busy exchanging the new vibes of the hall in her cotton grey Salwar Kameez. Definitely! I was out of the town model but it was an admission in the lot that was important and not the clothes!
Meanwhile, I kept on convincing a girl to leave the session and join some other college so that I get my seat fixed in the slot. In doing so, I missed the call. It was Divyansh that kept me occupied. No no! No love buzzing here, you know like, you go to crowded places and meet some strangers of your age talk is about to happen.!
There! Bang on!
" I think it was your rank, you missed it!", Divyansh said.
"Oh what! Okay!", I reacted.
She immediately stood up, carried her details in the clear bag and walked towards this women with dark pink lipsticks and sleeveless blouse with a purple printed saree, she was dressed as if there was a wedding affair in the hall.
"Mam Rank 1879..."
"Mam Rank 1879..."
"So rahe they aap?" (Were you sleeping), She burst with sarcasm.
"Mam sorry..."
"Documents sarey hain? Chalo Entry karo attendance sheet par."
( Are all your documents complete? Make your entry on the attendance sheet.)
"Management Quota?", The man on the dais asked.
"Sir, Rank hai 1879. Normal admission chahiye.", he laughed and marked my seat with a plus on a sheet of paper before my name and I took the nearly close available college, Delhi Institue of Law where life was waiting for lessons and a big change.
Later on, I understood what management quota actually stands for!
Ṭhey took a registration fee demand draft of Thirty- Eight thousand from me and the rest of the fee amount of about Sixty thousand was to be paid in the college.
I had a college now, I was going to pursue BALLB (H).
I went back to the group where I was gossiping.
"Tera ho gaya?", Divyansh asked.
"Han yar!", I replied with excitement.
"Kya liya tune? DIL?", he asked as if there was another option on the plate.
"Han wahi! Kya hua?"
"Arey F**k, tu ne bhi wahi liya? Kya baat hai koi CPIL jaa hi nahi raha".
I was clueless about what to reply.
"Chal milte hain class mein.".
we shook hands, exchanged a smile and he was the first person I met from the college.
The adventure will follow on 12 August 2010.
For a group of people are waiting for me, for the journey to begin.
"Mujhe intezar tha,ek anubhav ka,kuch sabak mera intezaar kar rahe they.Kyunki, kitabon se bahar bhi ek duniya hai,unke panno ki jhalkyaan dekhna abhi baaki tha,abhi to mujhe ishq hona baaki tha."
