Life has been a wonderful yet imperfect experience. We live, we die but we learn a lot. During my Post Graduation, this thought always occupied my already occupied mind, what life has stored in for me. I was anxious and hopeful simultaneously. God always had planned best for me. And that call I received one day made me believe. I was called by India’s topmost university. It was Lovely Professional University.
Though I hardly knew anything about this varsity, deep down I was at ease. I still remember the first time when I entered LPU, it felt like a dream. Never in my life have I seen such a beautiful campus. I was mesmerized with the green lawns, well-structured buildings, beautiful architecture, everything was so surreal. Back home when I was packing my bags to live the time of my life, I remember dad said you are going to India’s finest university, so sit back and relax.
Here I felt the difference. I saw university is flooded with people belonging to different countries and regions. Smiling faces, the aroma of coffee beans and delicious food made me forget home for a while. The day I got admitted here, I thought I will miss my home more so because I won’t get “Ghar ka Khaana” here, but the canteens especially the campus cafes served wonderful meals. I was completely baffled; I never saw a university with a mall, with a gym, with a saloon. It was a dream come true moment.
Having so much at one place makes u believe you are dreaming. But it was a reality. A reality I will cherish for the rest of my life. After roaming around the campus, I eagerly wanted to see my hostel room. I always disliked hostel life. I am a person who is obsessed with cleanliness. After discovering the hostel life, about the cleanliness, I was at peace. I loved every atom of my hostel. All the confusions and all the chaos vanished.
When I left my home, I was unsure what if this university will turn into scarp, There were so many questions tugging on the edges of my mind. But they finally came to rest. It is a home away from home. I am having the best time of life. May it continue to fascinate as it does every time.
