Happy Days

This Sunday i went to this movie in telugu, "Happy Days". It was kinda gud movie but i didn't get nostalgic like i generally do. The story is about Engineering college life in hyderabad and at some point of time most of the engineering students would have experienced most of the film's incidents.

Generally when i watch movies of this sort and stuff which might conincide with my life, i get lil nostalgic and think about the times which i experienced, but this movie even though i liked it, never got me into the trance. I then realised that my engineering days were not too good a Happy Days to be called. I do agree that i had good friends and i enjoyed my time with them, but then i had very bad experiences in the end. Generally all the so-called bad things happen in the beginning and in the end everything patches up and turns to a happy ending which never happened in our case. We had differences in between which never patched up and rather made us apart day after day and finally resulting in letting the group divide.

Even in the first few days, each of us had different opinions which rarely agreed with each other, but then depending on the situation we used to get to a mutual agreement and compromise. I must say that there were times which made us feel that we're great friends, but then, there were more number of times when we actually had many differences. The problem with most of us was, we were never frank to each other. I could say that even though i was frank many a time it doesn't help, but still i was. Frankness though hurts many a time, never lets you down because at the end of the day you could be happy that there's nothing ill between you and your friend. That probably never happened. There were groups among groups and these were divided further and finally the difference in opinion is upto such a level that each of us were a seperate sub-divided group. I still remember, there was this 'W' who was in my group and who used to be with 'X','Y' and 'Z'. Now even though this guy had differences with them, he seems to be very comfortable but when he comes to me, keeps complaining about them. And almost all of us in the group had the same problem. This led to differences and more differences. No one in the group bothered to mind differences between any other two in the group and slowly the group split and finally crumbled into pieces. Finally now, even though we call each other, chat to each other, we still know that we had the differences and we're never the same. We talk good to each other as if things never went wrong between us, but each of us know the truth.

I know this confession would bring nothing good cuz even though people who're related to this read it, they would never mind talking about it and may be it's now hard to get back or may be there's no need to get back. Each of us are in different places and dont need each other, we've got new friends, but still, i miss them all. Yes All!!!!

If there's one thing i could turn back time and do something, i would surely make my engineering days memorable. Cuz those are the best days of our life. I never wanted things to go wrong at this pace and this bad. I knew there would always be differences, but never imagined they would turn up this way. I dont know how bad the others are feeling or atleast thinking about those days, but yeah, i am thinking about them, cuz watever has happened, we've spent those good times together. Those nights at the roof top Koyla, chatting at the Eat Street, banging my ass on my birthday and putting those condoms all over me(bastards they did it), movies, campus placements, and many other moments. Even after these differences, I thank you all for those wonderful times we had. I might be wrong in ur point of view, but you never expressed it and i never knew it. I am sorry if I hurt you!

Damn i thought this movie never made me nostalgic, to hell, finally this movie got me too. Aaaarrrrggg!!!!!!

Hi Enigma! Thanks for reading Coffee and Stories.

"A room with no view" is just a work of fiction and not real (to the best of my knowledge!). Thanks for the comments!

Ok lemme get this straight...I have never watched any of the South movies nor had I heard south k songs until i actually went there.

And boy, I ended up asking my roomie what a certain lyric meant of a cretain song I'd like, and thereby shock the lliving daylights outta her...lol !!

But she was very kind enough to explain them to me. When i came back I brought back as many of them I could remember.

About the movie you're talking about here, since you say it talks of college days then, I think we all have very psecial memories of those days held close to our hearts.

Even I dont have much to make me miss my college, nor do i have made any special friend in 5 long years, yet it makes me flinch when i think of having to leave my college in a matter of days.

It was delightfu to see that you have linked me. You never told me so. Thanx. And I hope to see you at my page henceforth.

Take care.
