Summerz outta Room 4 - Aditya

The summers finally happened. Who was more relieved, the juniors or the seniors is a debatable question. For the people who volunteered to be a part of the processes, coordinators, floor coords, f&b and infra it was a sigh of relief. If the juniors sweated to tunes of one Omprakash in room 4, the seniors were running all around the place to cater to the whims and fancies of the corporate. When you have demands for bhel puri in the middle of the day, on a holiday, you run to chowpatti in the hope that he may have some.

For the people who are in the famed room 13, it is a job well done. Accepted the batch is not fully placed. But compared to the number last year, there is a huge growth in the numbers. Compare the 55 that were placed at the start of day-z, to the 90 this year, I guess that they have all the reason to be proud. What I find interesting is that last year we ended up with a tally of 91 as compared to 116 at the end of the day. Very impressive number.

I talked to one of the inhabitants of room 13; I use the word inhabitant, because that is what they do. They live their lives in that small room. The feeling is one of joy, delight and a kind of satisfaction on a job well done. When I asked about the transition from the most hated to the most loved people on campus, the reply was simple, “we have always known that when the day comes, we will get the respect we deserve. It was really satisfying to be in room 4 and get the response that we got.”

The summers will not be complete without touching upon the name of Rahul. When I asked the PAT about him, the reply amounted to the fact that he was a tactical maneuver and that if the juniors had not met Hitler in life, they did in him.

The only thing that irks me is the amount of attitude thrown by the juniors during the period. People not applying to companies just because they had to fill up extra information. Accepted that in the October issue we had pulled the legs of the prez over this, but this is no laughing matter. Guys, you better start thinking.

Its now time to look at the next big thing on campus. CRP. Now we wait for the CRP to start. A whole new ball game, just with higher stakes.
Over all, PAT rocks... and how!!!!!!
