SRM MUN'12- memoir.

This trip started with tons of expectations and lots of fun. This trip was happening after a lot of mishappenings but promise once made had to be kept.  
The train journey, the epic dumb charades, atlas and all kinds of games had all of us laughing and holding on to our stomachs all this while, videos, photos and even the audio recordings all combined couldn't capture the true essence. 
landing in the land of sun, heat and smell of fish, that's how chennai welcomed us. 
With wide arms open, we had zahaan and bambi welcoming us to what they called his dream. 
The amazing hospitality given to us by bambi's family and the meeting tito and narendra and tons of people. 
The chennai dream was coming true right infront of my eyes, the way I had thought, the way we had planned, all of it from day one. 


Meeting people does take you back in time to the exact moment you had met them for the first time, how the bond started to build up and how well the love entangles you and coils you up from threads, these tiny thin layers of trust. 


The next day we were off from bambi's place to SRM University, situated at about 40 kms from addiyar, stuffed in two cars, there were round about 14 of us, with luggages as if we had plans to settle here in this hot a city. The accommodation gave us some sort of a relief, we rested a bit and then ran for inauguration ceremony which made me meet my ip heads, pallav and kavya. 


Committee sessions commenced and I had chosen my committee, DISEC, with maximum strength and varun in the same committee. 


Day one concluded and we all came back to our rooms, a lot of catching up to do, a lot of gossip to start and a lot to end, meeting priya, shrisha and soooo many more people did ring a chord inside my heart, a sinful one. 




Day two saw serious debate and for me it had some special connections, some special memories. Some memories which struck a cord with the ones of my past, it made me smile, it gave happiness to my heart, but as they say all what gives you happiness isn't what will last any longer. 


Day three, as soon as the closing was approaching, the time for us to leave for Pondicherry was clicking, we had packing left to complete, we had goodbyes to bid, with no time we had a lot to accomplish. 


We left SRM, pondicherry here we come. Next morning we were in enroute to Pondicherry. Dropping our luggage at the beach house, all of us run to the beach, the serene view, the blue water, the sun shining with the perfect amount of heat. It was like a painting which had no flaws in it. These visions will be difficult to take out from my dreams.. 
Riding in the nights, the bikes, rock beach, aurbindo asharam, the serene beauty, the internal connection, the peace, the parting gifts, the poems and the tears which went unnoticed. 


The love and bonding which had jumped to the next level. The understanding which had matured like the seeds of a flower, providing fragrance and support to the ones who adored the truth and longing. 


Whatey a trip, what adventure, what memories, what LOVE, unusual but TRUE.
