Batch- 2020

There used to be time when students use to feel excited for their First Day of School. School days were really different from college ones. Excitement of buying new bag, water bottle, etc. 

To my knowledge, First Day of an academic year begins in the month of June, making it more obvious to buy new raincoats or umbrella the reason behind buying new ones every year was that we never reused the same old bag/ raincoat. Those days were really full of joy.

Also as time passed- completing our school studies- joining college we realised how stupid it was to buy new stuff every year. Three year of college we must have never bought a new bag- meaning we reused and reused the same old bag for so long. Those rainy days(school days) we use to pray for heavy rains so that school declares a leave for the same. Or by mistake if our prayers go unheard, during lectures we used to pray for a half day.

Those were very different and special days we miss today because now ahead we are no more excited for our first day of college/school. We are no more curious on who our school/college life  friends might be. We are no more pulling seats for our bffs/ gang, will miss the lunch-break with chit chats being the sole purpose, all with the new era of  'Online classes'. No doubt it is the most effective step taken towards safety yet we might miss catching new friends. I wonder how am I going to make new friends through online lectures. 

A very peaceful and convenient era for the 'Introverts'. 

Schools and colleges welcoming batch-2020.

Am sure even these days are going to be the most memorable times for batch-2020 when things get back to normal.
