Some Sem Surprises

• Dadu visits the library

Dadu, fondly called by the ham-buggers as Khau, visited the SIMC library after a prolonged gestation. Welcomed by the three librarians with library cards and the day’s newspapers, the event brought tears to the eyes of regular library goers. The annals of the Symbiosis history marked this incident in golden letters with one more “First time in the history of SIMC”.

Yet, Dadu claims that he always yearned to be a part of the library. The only issue was that he could never figure out the exit. The claustrophobic feeling of being trapped, juxtaposed with the fear of death, amidst the bibliophiles, kept him away. Rumors are rife that Dadu kept away, since a myth in Jamshedpur says that, being among a lot of books would increase heat and hence hair fall.

· DM’s digestive system doesn’t have a stomach

Communication classes turning analogous to the long forgotten Biology classes, were a whiff of fresh air. As always, maintaining the leisure of mis(s)communication the human digestive system forayed from the Oesophagus to the small intestine and large intestine, inviting the bile juice, salivary glands and pancreas to work elsewhere. DM says, “This analogy where the stomach wasn’t mentioned is not a mistake, but a purposeful method to inform students that information isn’t digested, but thrown out as it goes in, due to lack of necessary equipments” . Wah !! wah!!

· Advertising students get a five minute bonus. 30 minutes turn to 35 in Sem two.

The New Year was ushered with cheer and goodwill as CS sir’s resolution bore wings. As the duration of the advertising class increased from 30 to 35 minutes, students heaved a sigh of relief. Though only a marginal increase, students were hopeful that by retirement, the Ad sessions would become 90 minutes, calculating at a 5 minute per year rate.

· Battle of ILL-LUCK-NOW comes to an end. Mirror cracks.

The blood bath that ensured that the entire symbi community, including the board of directors losing their sleep, has finally ended. Ill-luck chased the philanthropist with much LUCK. NOW that blood is perceived to be past, the mirror shattered into pieces. The term “Hoax call” is today being acknowledged and accredited by the Oxford dictionary as a “Mirror call”, all thanks to the similarity in names.

NB: Only the Symbiosis founder and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minsiter escaped the mirror call, as their mobiles were switched off.

· Yellow spreads in the mess.

After two stretched months of dormancy, yellow returned to the mess in style. The tinge had a special significance this year too, since the white curries also have turned yellow. SIMC buzzes in chorus - The Jail-in-wala ‘Mess’acre continues.

· SIMC arrives, Coffee Smiles

The special breed of coffee beans, hand picked and admitted to SIMC, makes the recession hit coffee maker smile. Students, skimpily clad, maybe due to lack of enough winter, offered cold coffee to their loved ones and celebrate their arrival.

· ASid storm strikes Mirrors

The much awaited Footprints was conducted successfully and ASid sir wore the old garb of condescension, reminding students of the good old shivering days they had in the summer of 2008. “Seeing him wear the 4 month old attire was indeed wonderful”, commented some bigwigs.
After ASid storm left the classroom, a cracked mirror was found untouched for fear of another Hoax Bomb call.

• Operation NGO ends

After torturing the inmates and staff of various NGO’s, SIMC soldiers returned from their respective camps located in various quarters of India. They won it after a prolonged operation, said a doctor who just left to Chennai finding better options.

NB: None of the soldiers could return their guns. It’s highly likely that the guns were stitched along with the wounds inflicted to the NGO’s underbelly.

· The great internship hunt begins

Phase II of the great internship hunt began in Lavale. The aerial view to the city from the communication college cut off from civilization, would give enough of internships, opined the seniors.
