As the college started ,we used to stay back in the library after our classes until our bus departs to the hostel.If we people sat in the bus before the time then that's it,its a treat to the seniors.They come inside and take us for their fun.their ragging goes on like this,there will be KBC(kaun banega chappar).The questions they used to ask in this are very weird and i cannot write too....the answers are also out of context.They used to ask us to go and ask the senior girls name in the bus.But senior girls never tell their names so easily.We have to beg them ,call them as madam, please mam tell your name mam..like this it continuous.Finally they will tell some other name ...The last and foremost activity in the college ragging is our college salute.I think it will be there in every college.Its too very funny,like putting our hand in some where around and big stride to salute the seniors(singing the song).
Hostel ragging is some what scary ,it will be more physical than mental.This aspect i never liked at all.One day a phone call came to our room asking my roommate to go to one lodge where the seniors stay.In that lodge they made him to do each and every bad things which at that age its not required for him to do.for example doing first night scene with the pillow.How can one give emotion with the pillow.If your not giving emotion then that's it your going to be there for the whole night.one more example is riding a bike with your girlfriend without a bike and a girlfriend.If you forget to put stand after your ride or didn't honk in between ,that's it you have to do once again.I don't know how these guys get these ideas.
In career i faced only once the so called ragging.They called all of us(freshers)into seniors room.Me and my roommate given an 'Swati book' and told us to read famous column Dr.samaram's.Here there is a twist i have to read the question of the patients and my roommate has to tell the answer in a funny manner(not as written in the book).Then came the real test ,they asked me to describe about a girl from head to foot.I was describing a girl in English,then one senior told me to describe in my mother tongue.At one point of time i didn't got one word what it call in Kannada,there i stuked up.I really got tears in my eyes when i put up in such a situation.Then another senior from my native took me away outside and suggested me not to take to heart ,its common in the hostel.There lot to write these kind of stuff ,but i think you people will not have patience to read....
At the last my opinion is the ragging should be there to make us tough and come out of the shyness where it will help in our future aspects.But the ragging should not be physically where it will ruin the career of the guy.See the creative ideas which these guys get while doing the ragging is simply amazing...I think i have bored you ppl too much.Please respond or comment on my writing.I will just get an inspiration for my next writings:-)
