JOURNEY CONTINUES
12th March 2008 :We reach our destination Kuvempu University.As we get down from the bus we realize that the surrounding is not that typical serene village atmosphere but rather the opposite! We find people staring at us as though we are animals from zoo.I do understand that this response is due to the outfits we are wearing (jeans and tee,it was a journey and we wore what we felt most comfortable in).Later i did realize that it was not the outfit but it was like a hobby for them to stare, irrespective of whatever clothes you wear!!!.So Dillu calls up Dr.V and he escorts us to our allotted rooms and we all freshen up and then move to have dinner,i have decided not to comment on food!!!(Appu please do that for me!). After we chit chat and meet few old college mates who generously provide us with fresh water from their hostel aquaguard.End of an exhaustive day, we retire to bed.
13th March:We walk to the destined hall where the opening ceremony is to be held and get welcomed by gentle morning breeze,beautiful trees and lovely animal statues..the campus is one delightful place for a nature lover.On arriving at that place we realize there is no reception desk!!
Some how we manage to enquire and register and have something called "breakfast" and head to auditorium where the inaugural is to take place..which by the way is delayed for two hours,in the meantime to pass our time we start messaging,calling,irritating and of course sight seeing(refers to good looking Homo Sapiens of the opposite gender,though it was a major disappointment but the guys did have a better choices!),so after the inaugural,we get to know the proceeding for the day and realize that some of us had to present poster on same day and others the next.The day continues with series of seminar majority of which we literally slept through!! In the evening we help our pals in setting their posters.Then the meaningless conversation takes place...explaining a poster to a overenthusiastic(some egomaniacs) and some people who just want to irritate the speaker!! At the end of the day,we take a trip round campus head to rooms and look forward to the next day!
14th March:The morning an irritated Asaf comes up to us and says"The next time i stay around i will definitely make sure i don't share a room with a guy of my caste..though i don't mind if its a girl!!(This person was a rigid religious person who caught him listening to music at time of prayer!! and gave him bit of advice)..though he agreed to go for prayer at noon.Seminars over poured that day and that day all of us finish with poster presentation and later we go to the only sane bakery there to relish on something,later that night pre-"dinner" we enjoy a game of dumb charades.One thing i wish to mention here..the staple food of the university is drumstick,because whatever is prepared here has its origin in it.Post dinner we walk towards our stay place singing out loud the songs of Shaan,KK,all bharish ones etc on the empty campus road!!!
15th March:I call this day as the Quest to find good food day! Morning after insufficient food,we in desperation start our quest for food(the bakery opens at 11:30)and this left us with only one choice but search a good place to eat..We get a place and order puffs and that turns out to be a wrong decision coz as soon as Dillu bites it some sticky slime just oozes out of it like mucus or i don't even know what that was!! It was one expression worth remembering..so we walk and walk in search of food and find out that the bakery has opened.Thank God! but they didn't finish with baking so we wait and wait and wait..in the meantime we do have this crowd having no etiquette,only gaping at us..we have the divine food and sent off to listen to the endless lecture series..
and it gets over in the evening and we get our much deserved certificate!!! and we are glad that we get to go back to home sweet home,for most of us it was like a bad experience but i guess it did have the plus point like Melintonia on Star fish,Aysha Banu! :)
