de gr8 PC entrance saga
(de following article iz a diary of my life @ prof:pc thomas entrance classes.and de comments given here r with all due respect 2 de institute and neva meant 4 any sort of character assasination.it is rather de way i den looked @ de establishment as a 18 yr old n not essentially so nw. de article iz fully open 4 comments and criticisms)
a typical day in a pc hostel begins @ 4 in de morning.2 early 4 me nw and i c clock in such positions only in de evening.ur warden wakes u up in de most sadistic way making de perfect start 2 yet another miserable day in ur life.tho dreams wer more of nightmares,dos 5 hrs in bed wer de only peaceful time in ur life.blame ur fate,brush dos teeth dat hv forgotten 2 smile n wash ur face .and b back @ de green table n de red chair dat make up 15 hrs of ur life everyday.start again 4m wer u left last nite.
books n just books, de entire hostel smelt paper.desperate teens battling der fate,fine tuning der destiny n all brains set on just one material goal.de routine ws so designed 2 drain all de brains God has given u 4 a lifetime .tears had failed in bringing solace long ago.and u wer made 2 believe dat all hardwork in lyf ends here and life will b a bed of roses from nw.
i left 4 church or else i ws made 2 leave 4 church @ 0515.i would climb up de stairs 2 find de dictator already der .christ on cross hanged on de wall n de altar ws all smiling in flowers .dis is all i rem coz de nxt scene i can recollect is someone waking me up 2 return 2 de hostel.rather dan a chapel,it ws more of a bedroom 2 me.all de pc efforts 2 enrich de catholic in me failed wid a bang. de more i tried 2 stay awake,de faster i failed.cofessions wer a must every month.i really din do anything(dats worth confessing) wrong der even if i wanted 2.tell me wat wrong can u do in a pc hostel.??#?$&#
come back n find solace in de 15 mins set apart 4 newspapers.de only thing dat told a world outside u really exists.the week n outlook came on mondays. u could c de starving hostelers fighting 4 a parting sight of de last page.last page??? u r rite.dats wer de generous female celebs offered der sumptous fotos in de most seducing fashion and dat 2 in clothes dat would shy even 1 yr olds. adam had insisted on 4 eve,dey reminded.
ladies wer a strict no no der.de only lady in de hostel ws de statue of mother mary on de top floor.de prettier sex ws de root cause of all evils on earth.de pc buses drove de routes de boys would catch de least no: of females.a feminist would burn herself @ de dresscode imposed on de girls der.a little more dose of pc lectures would hv driven me insane.dos lectures made u believe dat world would hv been a better place wid only men around.classes took place in separate rooms n in different timings.and if ever ,dey had 2 come 2gether,boyz would take de front rows n gals wer @ de backrows even b4 u arrived.
and de bus trip 2 de institute.dat reminded u of people who lived normal lives.and den de 3 lectures n exams wer a child play by nw.and de marklists reminded u of de mission medico.all de students wer inspected on cctv making even de slightest movements impossible.110 student slaves all packed into a concentration camp,dat made sure v even fought 4 oxygen.de teachers wer 2 good,one positive i really cant deny.de daily pc message ws driving me all de more nuts.and u could only sympathise wid de teachers who would b publicly insulted by de management 4 de slightest mistakes.2 add 2 de agony,u could hear de pvt hostelers discussing de hot trissur,new movies n shopping malls.u had 2 enter n leave de institute in lines dat reminded u of ur KG days.strict rules governed de conduct of students n teachers.even de prizes 4 de toppers would b given in such rude fashion dat makes u regret dem.but den class time ws a heaven compared 2 de hostel life.
but den,my teachers wer extremely professional n stalwarts in der respective fields.dey wer 2 caring n made u enjoy de subject.i ws lucky enough 2 hv personel relations wid a few of dem which i still cherish.i should say,pc sir has 2 b applauded 4 de faculty he has developed ovr de yrs.jojo sir of botany n sajy sir of physics need a mention 4 sure.but,i doubt if anyone who passes out of de institute still counts dos times among de best in der lives.
PC cuisines wer beyond de farthest imagination of any human being maintaining taste buds."gulp ur food b4 u find out de taste",de mantra of survival ws simple.de achayan in me ws starved 2 hell wid veg dishes all set 2 kill my appettite.many a mornings u could find virgin cockroaches baked inside de already foul smelling idli. de secret formula of making 200 teas wid a litre of milk???, its all here.cabbage ws a staple dish der,so much dat i never had it again in my life.pappadam could nt b made in de hostel, and so tasted good. sambar ws made @ infinite dilution.orangish water in a big vessel,in case u don find out.stones in rice ws nothing less dan routine.de only relief came on mondays wen de menu ws veg biriyani and soyabeans.and u could c de entire hostel running 2 de mess in a tornado fashion,very much remniscent of starving people fighting 4 der rations.de nxt one week depended on wat u had on mondays.
de occasional secret visits 2 de nr by hotels wer de only de only relief.
rules r made 2 b broken,but not here.if not toilet or mess hall,u had 2 b on ur study table,de funda ws simple.and nobody is supposed 2 b engaged in any activity dan books.u could nt literally move from ur desk n slightest of conversations wid de neighbours brought one 2 danger.de wardens would b on a 24x7 prowl inspecting if everything iz going on as per de pc bible.imagine such a life for 300 odd days!!!
de lone comfort hr came @ 10 in de nite wen v could catch a bit a tv.dat told movies still run 2 packed houses,item nos wer all de more hotter,india still lost cricket matches n a whole world ws running de way u new it.
i hv already sent enough of nightmares 2 anyone planning 2 join der.but,let me admit very frankly,all de hard work has paid off.its not double stds or opportunism.thomas sir is defenitely one reason 4 wat im rite nw.may b all de above harship is really de key 2 success in dis highly competitive world.lemme give u an insight into world of positives der.
· pc sir classes r de most professinal wen it comes 2 entrance coaching,its a hell lot disciplined n indivudial attention is really on de cards
· de teachers r too too good n make u love ur subject.de exams r 2 well planned.
· if ur life is as much unorganised as mine,dis is at least de place 2 c people hu live in order.i belive i can nw survive anywer in world,wer am i gonna find bigger hardships???
· inspite of de millionaire he is ,u ll b amazed @ his lifestyle . and quite a no of students learn free of cost der.
· shake hands wid de variety of life,meet people from all ovr de state.thanx 2 my stint @ pc classes,i nw hv frens all ovr kerala
de one yr @ pc hostel stands apart in my biography.inspite of all my differences,he is instrumental 4 wat im rite nw.
as de motto goes "to God thru education"
