Missing College - renewing poetic license



Not that I was regular student, who got 95% attendance, like several of my friends... but whatever little I attended, and more so the thought of having to part with several of my college mates is making me more than just nostalgic...it is giving me a feeling of having lost something which will never return again in this life...

When I woke up this morning, I was bombarded with memories, which is quite rare in my case... perhaps I had a dream, where I was preparing to go to college...and when I awoke, it took me a few seconds to realize I have finished my college life..

I called a few of my close friends, but it was quite early in the morning (10 am) so only a few answered, but it was great talking to them.

I happened to meet my very good friend Ketan online, and asked him to transfer me a few pictures taken on the last day of college.

While the pictures were being downloaded, I read his blog, and was dumbfounded by his poetic skills, which was again a nostalgic journey for me, as I too was once taking the poetic route when for reasons unknown and quite unconsciously I shifted focus to prose.

I now feel like shifting back and renewing my poetic license, how else can I express what I feel about missing college, without using seemingly exaggerated language and out of the world figures of speech??

Beyond Nostalgia.... COMING SOON !!!

Nostalgia is a part of life just like everything else....i still cant believe college is over, the fun is over, its time for a new beginning, a new phase of life where we have to rise out of the ashes like a phoenix, like the sun from the horizon....

anyways cheers to the good old days, cheers to LIFE!!

The emotions of a feeling of loss are mutual. Yes i feel heavy hearted if the least is to be said about BMM. It was truly life changing, but im grateful in more that 1 way of what it taught me :)
