Hostel life

A dedication to all my hostel friends…

Hostel life is:
Maggi noodles at 5 am
Photo sessions on scooters
Discussions on 'the park’
Perpetual Bankruptcy
The significance of the snowpoint dustbin
The luxury of gulshan's chicken tikka masala and relax ka paneer
The reaction to suggesting new yorker for lunch
the preference to gulshan's american chopsuey owing to financial conditions!
Iced Tea breaks
Orkut breaks
Phone breaks
Boyfriend breaks
Loo breaks
Studying together all night
Celebrating birthdays together
Impromptu dance parties
Unending Gossip
Fights for no reason
Having a friend for an alarm…with snooze
Watching movies, videos on a laptop-all 8 of us!
Watching movies a day before exam
Having someone to teach you-even an hour before exam time
Fighting for space on the clothes rack
Cleaning each other’s room
Oiling each other’s hair
Secret Santa
Deciding bathroom time each night
The 11 pm deadline
Arguments with the guard when you’re back at 12…
The major ‘washing machine crisis'
The love for the Bandra chicken tikka roll
The order list when someone goes to McDonalds
Not wanting to sleep even at 2 in the night!
…And then sleeping till 2 in the afternoon next day
Garima’s stock of tuck
Anshika’s ‘tidy’ room
Neha’s bugging alarm clock
Rekha's 'aise aise' n 'something something'
Everyone’s fear of my cleanliness mood…


We don’t just live together-we share lunch and dinner each day (and discuss just how bad it is!), we care for each other, we share each other’s lives…its true that its an unforgettable experience! Cheers to us…to what we share…Im glad I got to live with you guys!
