Girl power!!!

Strolling down the memory lane of my Life prompted me to jot down these few words. For some inexplicable reason, I want to relive the golden chapters onf my life- My college days.

The first 16 years of my life saw me sharing books, playing games and competing for marks with both guys and girls. So, stepping into a world of ONLY girls had me thinking if I'd ever have fun. But my apprehensions belied the reality I encountered in my three years spent in Women's Christian College, Chennai. My school mates thought I was living a drab life without boys, as they were having a pretty decent time in their co-ed colleges. But little did they know about the crazy fun I had with my girls. Girls on their own, can go wild and we had a fantabulous time.



The 3 years I spent in WCC taught me so many things. I have learnt to be independent and think on my own two feet. When guys are involved in any thing, girls tend to depend on them to do every single thing, from answering the professor to organising any cultural event. But, in WCC, we girls learnt to do anything and everything from scratch. Give us raw materials, and we mastered the art of producing full blown culturals, Food fairs, College plays and the list can go on.



We girls, had our own fun. We enjoyed our hostel days of pulling each other's leg, calling out to our friends to come for lunch or dinner, bunk classes in the name of 'going to the loo' and then sneak into our dorms for a quick nap, dressing up for any festival or event or even a weekend day out, running into hostel just seconds away from curfew time, groaning and moaning over 'barely' edible hostel food, having a once-in-a-while night out, looking forward to Special dinners, pleading with the Co-ordinator and Warden for permission to attend the next-door-boys'-college culturals or some concert held, stealing each other's toiletries in the common bathrooms, heaving heavy buckets of water when there were water shortages, planning every weekend, swatting mosquitoes, and last but not the least, having a wonderful fellowship in our college chapel...basically,having fun!

I would do anything to turn back time and relive all these happy-go-lucky days. I'm thankful to God that He blessed with a really good college and wonderful friends that these memories will always remain as fresh and beautiful as ever.
