< LIFE > and 23 years of moving with it.
It was in warangal,when I first had a look at this world at 9 AM, Sunday and a full moon day of JULY 24th,1983.All my family members were obviously very happy at the birth of a baby boy who was the first one ever on both sides of the families.Pretty hale in health and with no paucity of charm was I,when born.As I was told,I was well received,pampered with love,and treated with excessive indulgence,My Birth gratified dad,mom,all and everyone.I,as a bambino had a lot of narrow escapes for life.I almost fell in to well crawling my way,playing hide and seek(rather unknown way !!!!) with my so called guards,mom,granny etc... once in my childhood.I was said to have been under a running truck on the road,I was fortunate enough to write this now.This was how my 1,2,3,4 went on...
Then sprouted the yearling.From 5,I was put in to school.For the first two years in kindergarten, I was with my grand parents The naughtiness of the child in me grew more than the age of the child,I was still the most adorable one to everyone despite the birth of my sister three years after me.But then, I could feel the attention shifting and the inclination of people having a gradual drift towards my sister as I was given the "GROWN BOY" name tag by the time she was 4. (yup!!! I was 7 too old hai naa...).I never felt the dearth of affection of course.I was no different from any kid,in going to school,They had to shell their patience out for sending me to school.I remember my grandpa dropping me at school each day on his bicycle.
Two years from then, I went to study my 1st standard in Asifabad,My parents were with me thereafter.I had been a vagabond in pursuit of my education,I completed my schooling in 4 different places.From Asifabad,my Dad got transferred to Jagtial again,where I completed most of my school days I studied there for 7 years and had a very huge flock of friends,it was there, I learnt my first lessons of Cricket and Football,We got the opportunity to play at any time as my house was just nearby the ground.I was not bad at my studies either,I always stood among top three in my class.Santu,Pavan,chandu,Nikhil were the best friends,I had in all those 7 years.Prem, Bhagath, Arun, Suman, Suresh, Anil, Srinivas, Bala, Ramya, Swapna, Abhishek, Rajkumar, Saikishore, Sowmya were my other classmates whom I still remember after 15 years,most of them are still in touch of course.I cant deny saying that I had the best days of my schooling there in Jagtial, then in class 9th I moved to a relatively bigger city Karimnagar,which my parents thought is the best platform to build my carrier to face the competitive world a head.Not letting their hopes down,I came out in flying colours securing state 7th rank in 10th standard.
It was all without my intervention that my life went on from there,I had no option but to choose M.P.C,I was given education By Gowtham junior college,So again I resumed my practice of roaming in quest of my education,this time I was in Vijayawada,It was literally a kind of jail,We knew only very few things about the outside world in those two years.The only thing in our minds at that time was to crack Eamcet,The life at college was also really memorable one,those study hours,those cricket matches for fame against the Vijayawada local team with in the campus,those secret meetings with our class girls(Ours was the first and only year I guess, to have girls in the same class along with boys,Swetha and Anvi became very good friends from then.),those Wednesday outings,Open Air theater movies,those sanskrit and English classes of MVR,VNB which were the only means of fun (and sleep :P) among all those very seriously taken classes.We very given rigorous coaching, and of course the management had to be thanked for what I am today.I secured a good rank at the end of two years, Jagan, Shashi, Suman, Dayasagar, Rajesh, Dilip were my good friends there and they still are.
I suddenly felt to have been emancipated from shackles after my 2 years of Intermediate education.I was a free bird,I had the freedom to do anything that I thought of and wished to.The life was sweeter than ever,after I joined at JNTU college of Engineering Anantapur,for my graduation.The four years there were the best of all my life.Every moment which we spent there is a cherished memory now,cannot mention just one or two of that life.Friends, classes, movies, celebrations, girls, restaurants, temples, labs, exams, mockings, pranks on each other,what not every single second was really beautiful,my heart still is heavy when I am typing this now.Wish to get back all those days back again.Ramakanth, Rajyam, Khanna, Guru, Divya were and still are my priced possessions for these four years,we have grown to become very good friends.The first year,came in and finished very soon,Ragging by seniors, matches against other branches, welcome parties....and so on. We got to know each other better only from the end of first year,Blushing girls were always there to add that extra bit of charm,to our colorful college environment.It was only very little time that we dedicated for studies,The only days which we studied were the days or rather nights before the exams.Second and third years were full of fun and frolic,no tensions and not many responsibilities,The final year was all a bit different from the rest,we had our project and carrier plans in mind,Then it was time bid bye bye to all my friends at the end, aankhoo mee namee aur laboon pee muskaan.....I could not restrain myself from stopping those eyes from spilling tears."You have to leave", The reverberation echoed, in the depth of my lachrymose heart,I could make it to IBM in the campus placements,This was the only solace to my saddened soul.
After all that,and an year after that,I am now glue sticked to job and responsibility,not aware of where my life is going to take me,Hoping for the best ahead......
