The end of days

College was anything but a drag-i miss it already. I know im going to get nostalgic and get the "this is it, i can't move on" feeling at farewell but like all good things-this too shall pass, and like most other farewell's i have been part of, i know for sure that im going to move on as well. But today and now i have decided to make the most out of an occasion,that im probably gonna have to remember for the rest of my life.

Plans on my check list include a "pajama party", lunch and dinner at an 'elite' resturaunt and a 'drink till you puke' policy. These plans couldnt possibly be carried out without the immense support of the 'Seven Deadly Sins'-partner's in crime and friend's forever. We would like to believe that we form the most good looking bunch of students in class and with a cover model in the group and two more in the making, why not.

Now Milton was one helluva writer. Innovative to the hilt. The seven sins reflected his innovation-Vanity, Greed, Wrath, Envy, Sloth, Pride and Gluttony. Now we decided to go one step further and tweek his innovation a bit. Me, Lisa, Hasleen,Nitika, Renelle and Shefali-The Seven Deadly Sins..each of us has a sin accounted to us according to our predominant characteristics of attitude.
Uptil recently everyone had choosen their own sin and was quite content but due to a recent discourse there happened to be a switch in sins and henceforth-

Lisa is Vanity- Ah helpful and sweet Lisa. Her words of advice can do no good for a shattered ego. She prefers to keep to herself most of the time and is completely devoted to the man she loves. Beautiful Lisa just cant stop gazing into a miror and hence landed herself with the deadly sin of Vanity.

Nitika is Greed-Former Vanity holder Nitika couldnt find a sin she could fit into. She always has gossip to entertain and a gap toothed smile which will warm your heart. She can convince you into believing even the most incredulous of things and her pranks basically stem from little lies that you cant help but laugh at.

Renelle is Envy-'I want' is the phrase, most heard when around Ren. Not particularly envious of anyone but wishes to be something she is not, although she is loved the way she is all the more. Agony's aunt when needed and a pleasure to be around-our 'bundle of joy' sholud just avoid the mood swings- when she craves isolation.

Akshita is Sloth-Previously Greed, the poor thing was given Greed when lookin at the 'cutely plump' site that fell upon us,we decided that she probably eats too much. These three years have prooven us wrong and we have realised that the girl with great bags and shoes eats no more than a bird-oh and strictly vegetarian at that.

Shefali is Gluttony-Now she's as opposite to Akshita as can get. With a 'barely there frame' and lovely eyes to start with, nobody could have imagined that Shef could ever be a glutton. Can eat upto two burgers at a time and yet manages to maintain those washboard flat abs. Erratic as can get and just cannot bring herself to say 'no' to anything. The reigning beauty in 'Bimbo-land', her humour is what keeps us going.

Hasleen is Lust-Cupid sure loves this one. Love guru to one and all(probably why she almost always knows, the gossip from tinseltown, before anyone else). Charming when you meet her, but everyone knows why getting into a fight with her is a big mistake-it's inevitable-your gonna loose. When in doubt, she's the one you will get the answer's from, just don't mess with her bad side.

Wrath as you have probably guessed by now is-me. Most of my friends will know the obvious reasons for this sin being credited to me and for those who don't, let me put it this way- i don't have a good side!

I owe most of what i have achieved in college to these bozo's. Every morning college wouldve definately been a drag if it wasnt for these guys. They made each day fun-yea we've had our share of fights and problems, but who does'nt. What matters is that we stuck it out together till the end and this farewell all we're doing is bidding goodbye(riddance?) to college- we got scolded, disgraced, removed from positions we deserved, thrown out of class and caught doing many things we should'nt have attempted to do in the first place-But im willing to relive each and every moment of it again. I loved college and most of all i love the friends that made college what it means to me.
An ode-unconventional but nevertheless-to my friends who have taught me so much, and to the bond we share..written in the hope that this bond never breaks..
