3 points for survival -in your college life !!!

Sitting late night scribbling something in a piece of paper ,a sight that  would make  any one stare in suspicion to all those who did all that i have to say is that  'iam perfectly normal  ". All that i could do today as I think of past one  year of Law education are all those lessons and training i have received in my life .From a convent school girl of sixteen i realize though with a sigh that i have transformed into  a mature young girl (at my late teens). Past one year of college life has taught me many valueable lessons ion my life  all credits to those" thirty six heads" in my class( including me ,as i believe made some contribution  to' myself ' and to some others who would rather take it from me ).I would like to quote them as "three points of survival in college life ".
                                                                 First point of survival ,yep if you are branded a "buji" (mallu word with a pinch english accent-English Vinglish )as some might call you make sure that the tag does'nt get you.First realisation is that it is not your marks or top grades that matters  ( some at the Dept. would disagree with me still no offence ). Gone are the times when your .8 and .9 does matter You  can aspire or dream but your .9 or .8 doesn't matter any more.
                                                                      Point two :Doctrine of Dynamic Change .Nothing is static in your college life .Lucky are those whose besties or dear ones in  first sem remains the same as course ends ,taste ,favourites ,desires everything sis dynamic .At times we are forced to realize that you pass the  test of patience and life  does have  a healing touch.Break ups ,patch ups ,quarrels ,a pinch of politics makes the masala of true indian college life .As my professor rightly puts it "No enemies no constant  friends everything is fare in this game of college life"
                                                                    Point three : Doctrine of Patience :-  Before beginning   college we were forced to believe in   reason - result theory  i.e reason alone can lead to result.But with spreading of rumours nothing can  be more polluting  or hazardous you might be part of some and knowingly or unknowingly become a contributor. To be honest its reach is  far more thant the grape vine concept explained  in B.Communication ( some of the very few concepts i remember ,i must say ! ).But you will be a true warrior -the test of fire does make fine gold .And the greatest benefit is that you get to know something about you that you din't really know .Patience does matter here.!
                                                     I don't know how far doctrine of eclipse and severability are pragmatic and useful beyond the purpose of scoring .But assurance that these doctrines are something that people have experienced but found difficult to discover and reveal
                                     I know for so long i have stopped blogging - There was no room for Frost or sheakspere  not even for jeffrey but pinned were the chapters of Rawls ,sections of Macaulay and judgements of Holmes  ,alone with which i soon found difficult to survive . To my juniors whose wits i appreciate a lot ,could relate it to theirs and Seniors it may take you down years again in your memory lane .
And to my friends this is it ...i have finally learned to play the mickey !!!

Transformation of a josephite into a Cusat'ian

Well i think its high time i answer how it actually feels to be in a highly reputed university like Cusat & about the most excited period of transformation from a josephite into a Cusat'ian .Like many of my classmates I did take a long time to understand & realize that we are no longer that same old school students .Frequent comparisons of the department ,classes &the new environment with the former continued for many weeks , there were even hours when i sat awake at late nights in thought of my dear ones back there in calicut &the question whether how long could i hold the pressure of transformation haunted me. I know it will be the same for anyone who had to bid farewell to an institution that was their home for past 10 years. I terribly missed in the early days of my college the fun ,excitement of my school days , I longed for the warmth of my navy blue uniform ,skirts ,french puffed shirts ,tie, rolled up socks&shoes ,the hymns of Carmel chimes,the spirited silence in the altars of the chapel ,my classrooms & i missed the pleasure of short speeches and ambiance of the auditorium ....... for the first time in my life i was feeling lonely in the vast campus. I Know St. Josephs was my home where i learned the basic lessons to live life ahead . I remember as if yesterday the way we used to cheer being victorious in various events & the proud faces of all of us raising the trophies , practise for the youth festivals , lab sessions of the science classes & even the com baring for the programmes. Life suddenly seem to be bitter some how i knew i had to travel along.The only advantage i had in the earlier period of college days was my interest in the subject i chose , i enjoyed the sessions from 9 to 4 pm but the outer classroom sessions could never interest me. but slowly the ice was melting , things started to change ,new friends, hostel life , the big library , my seniors was turning ever welcoming. The bond we 36 or 35 of us developed within a short span made life in the campus much more smoother to live in . Last minute preparations for the internals , moots , assignment presentations ,the frequent messages that we receive ,was once again providing this 18 yr old a hope to live ahead .

The life in Cusat is much different from being in a catholic girls only institution like St. josephs . SLS & life in Cusat is much more a wider &broader sphere. I Know that St . josephs is my past , a golden period to cherish in my life & Cusat is my present , yet another golden period to secure my future .... Yes i am today proud to be a Cusat'ian

As I write......

Away from home ,Away from my land
Came here to reside in this unknown land.
But still deep in my heart i hold it tight
The dream , my dream to make it there

Can I ? is a question vaque to raise ,
At this point when i have already begun.
All that i wish is to make a positive cry
" yes indeed I will make it there "

There is no regret in the chosen path
Dimly lit , but still carring competitive air
I know i have to hold it tight
'cause hidden are those obstacles here.

breaking the silence...... here i come

Breaking the silence of nearly 2yrs here i come..... yes time has changed, i hav transformed from a careless, innocent young school student into quiet a matured under graduate student of law. I had to bid adieu to many including my place , dear and near ones .But still I haveno regrets .The transfer from the great land of zamorins to the Queen of Arabian sea was never easy . I know i hav taken a much longer period of break than any blogger would & as i make a come today i have much more to say ..........

ADIEU TO YOU ............ MY SCHOOL

THE CURTAIN HAS FALLEN ON ANOTHER MAGICAL ACADEMIC YEAR. BUT I DON'T KNOW WHY MY EYES ARE WET TODAY. TEN GOLDEN YEARS ,
BIDDING FAREWELL WITH SONGS OF JOY AND SIGNS OF SORROW. I REALIZE I WILL NEVER GET BACK THE LAUGHTER AND PAIN THAT WAS SHARED TOGETHER AS
ONE SOUL AND AND ONE HEART.
ADIEU ........................MY SCHOOL ............................ FOR BEING WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN AND MAKING US WHAT WE ARE.

To Begin...

It's with the belief that the words that i speak must be able to carve deep wounds in the hearts of the listeners and it must be with the same words that they can find relief to the pain suffered.

To speak is my passion but to search the truth is my action.
I search in this dark world for a ray of light....

The Search begins...
