Life in a campus was new to me. The atmosphere at campus on the first was great with students moving here and there to find their alloted room and getting over the admission procedure to adjust in their new hostel rooms.Introductions, Hi-Hello's followed.I was given Room 323 with Ravi as my roommate.
The initial shopping of ours included the bicycle, bed and other necessary things for a bachelor to live.
Few of my friends (Ravi and Girish) were waiting for IIT madras to declare the final list of students and were delaying the shopping in the hope that their name would include in the list. But (fortunately for us), that it didn't happen otherwise we would have missed good friends.
Ravi , My Roommate: When I first saw him, I was afraid of his tall and semi-dark personality. I thought he would be very rude, full of bad habits like smoking which I cant bear. To my surprise I found he is totally opposite- Very shy guy with child-like behavior and thank god he doesn't smoke.
One of my friends, Suresh bought a cricket bat during the first week of our stay and yeah,in India cricket connects people and our circle of friends just exploded covering many in it.
Who says life at IIT is a cake walk?
To reach IIT is difficult, but to stay at IIT withstanding the academic pressure is much more difficult.
Waking early for 7.30AM class, working on the assignments till late night and preparing for the sudden tests[which profs warn initially] are some of the bouncers.
Attending classes , without bathing, in pajamas wearing chappal and always being late to those early morning classes are fun to recollect. Breakfast vs Early class was always a dilemma, many a times we used to manage both.
Ravi, Girish, Venu, Vamshi, Shiva, Suresh, Sujit, Shyam are few among my classmates in KGP.
Overall, First semester taught us handling the pressure of being at IIT and joy of bicycle riding in a huge campus, other than the technical learning ofcourse.

One of the peculiar thing about the Kharagpur environment is the unpredictability of rain. It is one of the important advise by the seniors that umbrella is a must, irrespective of clouds in the sky.
If one forgets it, he need not take a bath again :) .
