College – time to make mistakes, to experiment, to explore…to live. College has given us a lot besides just education. It has given us lessons, a sense of direction, a sense of self, and some really wonderful friends that we might go on with forever.
College is always fun, but when it’s time to leave, you tend to ruminate the memories & the time well spent.
Here are the most unforgettable moments of our last year in college.
1. You make and implement the list of things you have to do in the city before you leave
Trips and night outs with your friends become more frequent.
2. You realise that there is no one older than you, and you’re the ultimate senior batch
So, you start becoming warmer towards your juniors, giving them all sorts of survival tips for college.
3. You start counting all the ‘last’ moments of the year- the last class, the last lunch, the last exam, the last assignment…everything
“The last word of the last assignment of college life. Done.”
4. You try studying harder to get your grades up for the last time
And start preparing yourself for several interviews and the likes.
5. You start spending more time with your friends
You try soaking in everything you can while the sun shines. You know it’ll soon be a memory.
6. You start warming up to the teachers you didn’t particularly like before
And all the professors start giving you advice on your future endeavors. Makes you feel like a total grown up.
7. You are compelled to think about your future in the big bad world
And you’re still as confused as you were when you first walked in.
8. Couples have to seriously start thinking about their future with their significant others
Sometimes, there are tough decisions to make.
9. All the secret crushes get revealed in the last year of college
A
Akhir ab nahi, toh kab?
10. You start collecting all the TV series and movies you can from your friends and classmates
You’ve got to take it before they leave. Afterall, TBs of priceless data.
11. You spend more time exploring unseen places in your college than you ever did
And spend as much time as you can. You hate going back to your room.
12. People start walking around with markers and slam books
Markers to write on the college uniform, and slam books for all the memories.
13. Photographs, batch photographs, and tonnes of other photographs
Of the library, of the canteen, of your mess food, of your friends…all of it.
14. You eat your most favourite meal for the last time in your canteen
“ one choclate cake .”
15. Farewell shopping is a huge deal, because you need to look fabulous
Goes without saying, you need the perfect outfit.
16. And your farewell party is tear-jerking and overwhelming
Your juniors give you the best good-bye you could have ever imagined.
17. Soon, you have to start saying goodbye to all your friends as they leave for their hometowns
And every goodbye takes you through an emotional journey.
18. You make up with the people you didn’t get along with before
It’s the last year, and the best way to end it is to end it well. No harm, no foul.
19. Finally, you bid goodbye to the place that gave you so much of who you are today
You will never forget how your college moulded you, and gave you so many beautiful memories that you will always cherish.
In the end, your college is your second home, and no one can take that away from you.
