The Welcome Days

I still remember the day when i have entered the NITC gate with lot of dreams and happiness. Till my graduation i have not faced ragging but while entering this institute i was planned up that i have to go through the harsh ragging. i was afraid of all that and was sure that if someone will do something wrong with me i will complaint ...
Day one all gone with different orientation programs and at night someone told that our seniors wanted to meet us and all of us have to be there in 10 minutes. They have already approached some of our classmates and have told where to come, after thinking for a while i have decided to join other people and we all moved to G-hostel. Our seniors were crazy to meet to us we all got lined up and they started asking some basic introduction question. after they did it for some 3 students they asked us to continue in the same format. all of us have given our introduction in the format prescribed by the seniors. They have already said whoever feels this is ragging they can leave immediately and they wont be disturbing him, everyone felt OK and stayed there , when we were finished they concluded that none of us is good in expressing ourself and it will be difficult for us to survive if we will stay like this. They have given some instructions to us (not writing here to keep it confidential)...
We used to go their for some 2 weeks than we had a grand welcome party from them. at the starting we find it boring to just sit for the whole night doing nothing or saying some stories, jokes singing and all that that stuff some sometimes they used to shout on us when we tried to escape from the things they used to say .., but the last days were so nice we have got so close to each other may by writing the personal details of everyone in our batch on the white sheets. We had some debates in the G hostel and so many other things which finally improved some or more skills . We have got to know about each other and the relation among us has gone so strong that we never felt that we are far from our home ... No senior never asked us to do any bad things, and our session had never gone to physical. When we used to go to our hostel back at night we have seen so many BTech getting slaps from their seniors. We were never gone into such situation.

I just wanna say ragging is a different thing and we call our welcome session as student development program, and believe me it really helped many of us.

I will write some more about the days sometime later
