My mindboggling attempt at writing crap.
Akash, a 5 pointer at BYTES college was in severe depression.
He had been prohibited from sitting for placements till now. His understanding neighbor
and buddy of 4 years, Sameer, a 9.89 pointer, tried to console “ what man! Being
‘CGist’ is the new ‘sexist’ for companies nowadays. You deserve a good
placement. So what if you don’t mug well in your electrical stream, you are the
Elvis Presley of campus.”
A few days later, Akash was bursting with joy after cracking
the 1st company he sat for, Infosys. His neighbor Sameer took charge
of unleashing incessant congratulatory bumps and proudly reminded Akash of his
well deserved treat at a posh 3 star hotel for this feat, for which Akash
readily agreed while he was still numb with both joy and pain in the butt.
Later in the evening, sitting on a cushion in Sanjay’s room,
Akash cribbed: “Dude,I am going in a bus company with salary at par with a
conductor’s and .. “ as Sameer interrupted him and gave a virtual ppt on how
good Infosys was for a starter and how even he would have sat for it had he not
planned to chillax for an year in Microsoft, which he claimed to have got into by fluke.
Next day, Akash woke up to a noisy afternoon with severe
hangover. Curiously, he peeped out to find pink faced Sameer breaking his chair
like a bull and ranting “ What was the
point of working my ass off, not dating, buttering professors if I get overlooked
for that noob, Raman with a lower cgpa even though I am the most tech savvy
person around”. Soon he and chair both broke down as he fumbled ” Stanford was
my dream!”.
In the meanwhile, Raman
announced “Sambhar and intelligence run in my blood re. Though I feel sorry for
that ghissu re.”
In dilemma if he should feel bad about his bestfriend never even
letting him sniff his MS plans or his
rejection that followed, Akash couldn’t handle the brain teaser and decided to
go back to sleep.
P.S.: While still recovering from their respective shocks,
CAT results were announced today. Akash got a call from the inferior siblings of IIMs, the new IIMs. In the next
room, Sameer has been prattling away to glory about his managerial bent of mind
since childhood and how his dreams have come true on KabTak, Sabse Haze channel,
thanks to his cent percentile.
