Exodus of the duo !!

Two weeks back, the first roomie (Aditya) left for good and last week the second guy (Varun) also left for his internship. Aditya and I came to school together in August 2006 and we first met in May 2006. The first time we met we decided that we will be room mates and I remember the first things that we ever spoke about at Barista on St. Marks Road were about the hot women we have heard of or knew from our college days. From then onwards these small talks about women never stopped. I saw him go through one of the worst moments in the first semester. He came through that and the way he got his funding is still one of the best anecdotes that has happened to him in his stay here. Speaking of anecdotes none of us here can forget the way he got a ride from the airport to school when he had gone to DC for a conference. Here is a man who is new to the country and stands up in the flight just after it lands at the airport and shouts out - "Is there anyone going towards Ames, I need a ride till there." Eventually he did find some lady who dropped him, but we back home were all awestuck by his guts. That incident just simply defines Adi. The first year was a very "quiet" period for Adi and me. We had to work on our assignments in a very quiet and whispering atmosphere, and of course the silent F & B words let out in frustration against a certain someone. We still carry "OREY" and "DEFARTMENT" in our dictionary and I guess they will never go off it. I have griped a lot to him and he knows what I go through most of the times. I should be grateful to this dude always :).

After a year and the exit of "OREY" came another super replacement and I should say by far the entity that brought Adi and me close. Adi and I were looking for our third room mate and decided on Varun and thought that he cannot be really bad as a room mate, and it turned out that he was a really good fit in our place. Like the old "OREY" saying goes - "OREY HOW WILL HE BE WITHOUT US NEXT SEM ONWARDS ???". Honestly, he will be happier with less farts and burps to hear from Adi and me. Varun is a very smart guy and is very level headed and of course has a very "DONT KNOW DONT CARE" attitude. Personally for me he has been one of the most helpful people when I was a little "MIND F***ED". He saw things happen to me and is always encouraging.

The last 1 year three of us have spent some amazing time together. The great times drinking at Cafe B and Welch Ave with Adi throwing up and singing in the bus and Varun and I dancing with random people. None of us can forget Varun spending for some random hot girl at Welch Ave and things that followed it. Adi and I have been thrashed for burping and farting and of course using a loud speaker for to amplify the noises. To counter that Varun also started burping with a "BBBBBBUUUURRRRWWWWWAAAAAAH". I think ours is the only house in Ames where cricket is played on a regular basis and with serious scores to boast about. Aaloo 2.5, Long Island Ice Tea, Puliyogare, Cricket, Cafe B, Atanasoff, Thai Kitchen, Ayride, Water Spray, True TV, Javagal Shetty, 612, Free Pizza, Chocolate, the list is never ending.

Guys you made my stay at Ames the best and wish that this period can be repeated at some point later !!!
