It’s been long since I blogged and people are happy about it I guess..!! It’s been almost 4 months that I left college life. Things have fallen, pretty well, in places for me and my friends. But there is something that is troubling me. I feel lonely, I can’t sleep at nights. Though staying in home, I feel aloof. It took me some while to understand what I am missing. Few days back I realized that I am missing the 64 characters of my MSIT –IIIT batch. Each individual is special and unique in his/her own way. Leaving the college, where all these characters dwelled few months back, has created a big void in my life. So this blog is dedicated to all those wonderful 64 characters with whom I have had some unforgettable moments. Wondering why I say 64, and not 63? The 64th is me. I am missing myself as well. I am finding it tough to pass the time on weekends. I don’t have anyone to talk to, in the evenings, about the daily chore on the weekdays.
So following is a small collection of the features/attributes of these 64 characters and what all I MISS!!

And to end it all, the only one thing I DO NOT miss is the missiles of Sandeep..!!(I know Sandeep would not take this to heart, but there was not any other fitting last line better than this..!!! )
Before coming to MSIT, most of us had a rough patch in the life…either B.Tech was not in a good college, or friends were not good, or B.Tech percentage was down, or many other personal reasons. But I feel, and I guess many of you as well do feel, that we have been lucky to be a part of these 64 characters. God has been kind to us, as we met some very unique, normal, abnormal, intelligent, passionate, admirable, understandable, not understandable,ITEMS, lovable, affectionate and caring personalities ( and probably every adjective that defines a character). Its getting tough, we all are staying apart. I don’t want to write anymore emotional and touchy lines about it. Good that we have technology and our very own Xtremos to connect through. Luv u all… and of course “Miss you all”
P.S.1.: Do not take this to heart, if I have written anything wrong or embarrassing about you. Don’t worry it will stay only among these 64 characters, unless otherwise your BF/GF ( or spouse later) visit this blog and discover some really funny things written about you here..!!
P.S.2: I am sure that I have missed so many things that you all think should have been written here in the MISSING list, but the above are the ones that I could recollect over a period of 1-2 weeks..!! If you feel anything more can be added here, tell me and I will append it here, so that we have a large collection of these MISSINGS..!!

Kokate great post. recollecting the past.Missing every one.

I feel a bit lucky than u kokate, bcoz i'm missing only few of those from the list. I'm still enjoying the feeling of MSIT student... Playing cricket & badminton, labs, cafeteria, NBH & OBH mess, morning jogging, meeting few of u daily...etc.. These feelings are really great.
The silence of Harishwar, Budihal, RaviKanth, Tarun and few other girls like Prithvi, Hiranmai, Divya ...
"few other girls" .. now where does that put the names which come before "few other girls" ... My brain is thinking the unthinkable :P
You can add the stomach ache story of Sandeep during the This course and the tension on the face of people when they go late to the lab and expect Mahinder or JP not the catch them.
ro'hit'!!! could know so many funny facts n different talents... nee experience with softskills team??
U can add one more Missing character in the list :- Rajesh (Ofcourse, he is not an MSITian)

Good one machcha. This post relieved me of my writer's block. I've written some stuff as well. @dutt, if you are reading this, 'stuff' ante aa 'stuff' kaadu.
Excellent post..hope it should be never ending (one or the other should be adding to it). Before i started reading i scrolled down and thought "will i complete this in one go? because i have the bad habit of not having the habit of reading. Understood ? np :P. I started reading..it suddenly ended up.. "Arrey i just started ..." is my expression... if all of us can add our memories, we can make our MSIT "Doing by learning".. to the readers...how ever i want to add a few...

Hey Rohit....Sorry for delay! I didn't want to comment on ur post unless I've done finishing it wholly. I have read and re-read and liked ur post very much. Putting on paper - thoughts as u get them and moments as u've lived them - is both interesting and difficult thing to do or should i say it's "Interestingly Difficult".
I've done some critical research on your post. First, I wanted to see how many times you've used my name in the post. Then, i got the idea to calculate each one name's count in ur post. One fine day i managed to do that. I do not wish to make a statement so i say "may be u are as much attached to the person as the count". Below is the list.
