I, for one, isn’t into the phenomenon of SMSing. Well, I have my own reasons for that. Iam also not the one who likes these “mushy” and “syrupy” SMS forwards. Neither very keen on the last joke made on a Sardar.
But, sometime ago I received a couple of SMSs that I really liked. They were long, yet simple and true to the core. The first one goes something like this:
Have you ever wondered what is college life about…its about the firsts for so many.. the first Independence, the first bike, the first cell, the first night out, the first crush, the first girl friend, the first kiss, the first break up, the first smoke, the first vodka, the first debonair, the first project, the first call letter, the first look of pride in parents’ eyes, the first feeling of responsibility, the first of so many and then finally the last of goodbyes.
The second one is:
Those “night outs”, those “midnight teas”, those “birthday bumps”, those “old torn jeans”, that same “rasam”, those “late night walks”, those “mother’s pickles” and that fight for them. Those “struggle for marks”..”fight with teachers”..”tears for love”..Those “B grade movies”..Those “plea for placements”..Just everything ..That’s college life..We call it “heaven”.. We are Engineers..
College life and more so our Engineering life, just couldn’t have been put in a better way. I think it takes 3 SMSs to make this one long message. But, hey! What the heck!

Ever wondered how it is the small, insignificant things that we carry along as prized memories.
We never remember when we topped a subject, but we always remember the "copying" to get 15 in the internals.
Yah! As they say "Small is beautiful"..

I am not one to sms either, but those were some good ones you recieved. It sums up college pretty well.
