“…when I was in my first year, I was told that the four
years of engineering will be over in the blink of an eye. Now, when I am at the
verge of completion of my four years of engineering, I can say that yes I have
experienced it. These four years swept by so quickly. To me it seems that the four
years were one single moment but it carried innumerable stories within it.
Every story is fresh and it will be forever.”
The CSE and IT department of our college gave us farewell on
May 20, 2014. To receive warm affection from our teachers and a note of
motivation for our lives ahead was mesmeric. As this was going to be the last
meet of ours with teachers officially, I carried my point and shoot camera with
me and captured as many moments that I could. I don’t want any moment to let go
off my reach. I want to preserve them, each one of them. But yes, I try to
overcome the bad memories at the earliest, failing to do at most of the times
though. However, they also make me a more experienced person, a little more
learned, but the canvas of imagery you build gets stained with unintended instances
in life. The journey of four years at Bengal College of Engineering & Technology
had been somewhat a mixture of good and bad experiences which in totality
helped me grow. I find there have been a huge number of changes inside me. My
seniors helped me to grow, so did my friends, and I can’t forget to mention the
role of my teachers in it. Teachers always help you in one way or the other,
and trust me, most of the times you won’t even get to notice that they have
helped you. In the later stages of life, you realize how important they were. Yesterday, on June 2nd 2014, we gave the last exam of our B-Tech. After
two days I am about to leave Durgapur, and I am filled with emotions towards
some of the good teachers I was blessed with.
The starting note in this post is a part of the short speech I gave on the farewell day. I felt honored to get called along with Namrata, my best friend, by our HOD sir Dr.Prof. S Dasgupta to say something in front of the whole CSE & IT family.
“…these four years I was a part of the CSE and IT family.
I have to leave now. But I wish to be remembered as a part of this family in
the coming future too.”
This ended my speech then but filled me with melancholy. I
can go on speaking of my college life endlessly. Most of the things I am
backspacing here, probably I will let them out at some later stages of my life.
I want to thank each one and every one of them who were a
part of the life I lived here at Durgapur.
Thank You!
