The ADEians....

Yes, THE ADEians (it says THE Automotive Design students of 2008-12 batch...thats it...nothing so difficult)were we.....me, poonia (punn), mohanty (babu), siddhant (tyagi), pandey, nishant (litl), shubhanshu (chchaa) & sandeep (vij)......out of all the above mentioned names only tyagi was a non-hosteller......

My deep friendship with these people started during our mid-semester exams of 1 semester.....every evening plans were made by me, poonia and babu to study after the tea but never did we sit to study before 11 in the night, all of us were raped in these exams except for chchaa, whose only work during exams is to study, sleep and go to the toilet(u knw for what).....

"Jasmeet Singh come and sit on the front seat", screamed Kuchall at me....he had all the rights to do that because of the following :-
1). I sat on the last bench.
2). I sat with poonia.
3). I got 11/100 in my physics mid-sem.
4). I WAS TALKING.
"Sir no, aage mat bithao please", i said in my defence....."Ok, dont sit in front, just repeat watever i had taught till now in this class today", he backfired....
"Abey yaar kyun yeh itni ungal kr rha hai", i whispered to poonia....
"Sir main samajh gaya hun but main explain nhi kr skta hun, please understand, bas main samjha nhi skta hun...", i had understood nothing so replied with this.....
"Mujhe pta hai ki tum ko kuch samajh nhi aaya hai, chhodo tumhe kuch bolne ka koi faayda nhi hai, leave it....end-sem ke exams mein bhi yahi krna....", i took this as his defence and not his offence, then he starting spitting some more stupid scientific words on the FRONT BENCHERS....
Poonia and all the other people were laughing on me saying that i cannot explain sir but i have understood.....

One day we were told that we are all invited to the seminar of SAE International in Delhi and all of the hostellers just agreed to this and even siddhant was coming.......so next day all of us were going in our college bus with our seniours and we were laughing, singing , dancing (on the music of the horn of the bus)....doing all the stupid stuff we can possibly do....sooooo, we reached Delhi and attended the seminar and I even went to home for a couple of hours because we had to go back to Dehradun by bus the same night....this was the first time i actually had a conversation with siddhant.....poonia had told me that "abey yeh bhi hum logon ke jaisa hai, na daru na cigarette and he has no plans of fu***ng with girlfriend till marriage.....abey sahi banda hai baat krle..."....then we all started talking and while talking we slept....it was sooo cold so we had to sleep a bit closer...not that close but yeah close enough.....

It was fun, atleast the first semester, but then it was wierd....they had problems with me and they even tried to change that in me but the method all my FRIENDS used at that time was not right....if you are seeing your one friend getting irritated then u should discuss and not just cut him off your friends list.....i was very hurt at one time but with the passage i got used to the fact that they are not talking to me and even i didnt take any step in improving my friendship with them...u might call in EGO but i call it as self respect.....to be honest i was lonely for atleast a couple of months and i didnt like to be alone, specially seeing everyone else enjoy....

It was awesome to sit in the nescafe area on a couple of benches with siddhant being our RADIO.....his head is soooo big that we named him KHOPDI......poonia's ears, lips, chin, body....leave it...the whole poonia is sooo disoriented.....if poonia was not debarred in the 1 sem then i was solely because of me i guess.....everyday i used to wake him up at 9 for a class at 9.30 (campus hostel's one and only benefit and now that stupid gorkha THAPA is taking it from us, asshole).....there was a time when everyday we, the hostellers, used to dress up in a similar way, although our college has a uniform but we used to make ammendments in it and then go to the college, for eg. everyone wearing jeans etc etc....the only thing i never did with all these people was to leave the mid-sem physics paper blank and not write more than 2 lines....i never did this....poonia was kinda my best friend and we even did that one good thing (babu ki girlfriend waali yaar poonia).....no one except him and me knows about it....
I HATE YOU ALL for those days of my life when i missed spending time with you but you people never saw that.....

Now i guess eveything is back to normal.....but we still dont do the things we used to do....the only thing now you people do is play DOTA.....its aweful yaar...i mean even i wanna play it but i cannot afford to F**K my semester because of it....the one thing that i am proud of doing with you people this semester was leaving the I.C.Engine mid-sem paper with writing only a page....seriously i felt good that day....i hope you people felt it too....

There are soo many incidents like :-
1). The shoe incident in shilpi's class.
2). More kuchall incidents.
3). The mussoorie trip.
4). Mine and poonia's flying leg claps.
5). The 2 semester fight between you all and me.
etc etc.....
I still remember those days but they are gone and i know they cannot come back and thats the only reason i have again started being friends with them.... i know the effects of close friends leaving you.....
Hope you can bear with my litlle anger and some other bad things because u know i had never ever tried to hurt anyone of you because i used to consider you all my best friends.

WE USED TO ROCK AND I WANT WE ALL TO ROCK AGAIN......
ADE ROCKS....

thnx....cheers....signing off...

WanNa GO BaK TO mY RoOtS....


" Nhi beta lawyer to bilkul nhi bann skta tu.....jahan tak baat architecture banne ki hai woh bhi tu nhi bann skta "....this is what my dad said to the options I gave to him when for the first time he asked m e , "chal jassi bata tu aage kya krna chahta hai...". It was not that I couldn't have become a lawyer or an architecture, it was only that my dad didn't want me to become that or he thought that these are not the degrees which u should be having in a country like ours....watever it was I didnt do any of that... "so, krna kya hai fir tuney" asked my dad again and my answer was Aerospace Engineering to which he replied , "Ok. Kya isme aage future hai ya fir aisi hi koi bhi degree hai ". I said that there is unlimited scope in this degree and I have been following aerospace engineering from class 6 and I just wanna do this and to hell with being a lawyer or an architecture. To this, very confident answer, he was very positive and said that we should look out for colleges which offer this course in India.

So the search for the college which offered a B.Tech degree began and my brother came with some results like Amity University, SRM University and UPES.....forms were filled and I had a very happy feeling that m gonna do what i thought in my childhood to do....

" Bta na kitne percent baney hain ", i said to my brother on phone about my result in the board results, to which he replied," 181/300 in PCM...i.e. 61% and in total 62% "......i was in a state of shock because i thought i would get somewhere around 75% and the Amity University people will give me some scholarship for doing Aerospace Engineering but now the situation was that , that they were charging much more for the same course only because i scored a little above 60% and i was not able to clear their entrance paper....UPES was my last hope and after a day or so of the board results ,when i was in a sort of depression, came their call for the inteview..... " so this means that i have cleared my entrance test naa....?? " i asked my brother.... " haan yaar, obviously u have cleared the entrance test, bas ab hum interview faad denge....".
I was so happy that day and told my mum and dad about that and even they were very happy...

" Acha ab tu bata ki tere ko sach mein Aerospace Engineering hi karni hai" asked my bother and dad in a sync.... " Haan yaar, aapko pehle bhi to bola tha ki yahi krna hai..... BAAKI AB AAP BOLO KI AAPKO THEEK LAGTA HAI KI NHI...."
" Dekh jassi...u will not be able to live with us in India if you gonna do Aerospace because of the limited masters college in India and doing Aerospace Engineering and then not doing masters in it is wasting your 4 years to become a mechanic.....i am just trying to be logical with you.." said my brother to me....
Then my dad siad to me that i should do Automobile Engineering because the scope of automotive engineering is also very much in future...
" Theek hai fir jo aap bol rahe ho wahi kr leta hun.....m fine with wateva u are sayin..." was my answer to my dad's, bro's and my mum's eyes looking at me....
I cannot leave my family forever to do a job in videsh.....

So i took admission in Automotive Design Engineering in UPES thinking that i will be very happy doing this....
I was happy for the first whole year in my college but then as our subjects became more "related to the field" i was not getting that much interest, instead i was taking interest in samaksh's subjects (he is in Aerospcae Engineering)....subjects like propulsion, aerodynamics etc etc.....

I thought that do i really wanna be a designer in the automotive field....i could be a designer in the aerospace field tooo....but i dont know whether it is too late for me to think about it or i still have a chance of achieving my dream of becoming an Aerospace Engineer or an Aerospace Designer.....cheers ....
