The college i go to ...

As a friend of mine once said, "We go to college in Lonely Kalbhor (Loni Kalbhor, Pune). I think this expression says pretty much. I travel almost 30 kms, one way to reach this destination, but every time i take this road the only thing running at the back of my mind is that i'll be back to civilization soon. Though i don't particularly stay on campus and the only places i do go to are the one floor college of mine, with as few a classroom as fewer the students, and the third floor canteen of the college adjacent to ours.

Thought the place is away from the hustle-bustle of the city life but at the same time it is praticallly a poor example of peaceful life either. Everyday the campus seems more and more barren and lifeless. It can't even be called scenic with the amount of construction going on in any corner the eyes can go.

From the angle i see it, the feeling is that of restlessness which one has when there is no signal on my phone when i need it the most. We were a bunch of talented, enthusiastic young students when we came here, but in a short span of six months we just survive with the hope of getting back to the society at the end of our course.

When the other students in the students hub of the country enjoy vibrant activities around the city, we the students of lonely kalbhor wait for the Institute of Design to organize something.

Its just the need of the hour that i go back to this campus everyday. And i desperately wait for the day i will never have to look back here again.
