First-day bytes: students feel the party’s just begun

You would think that the first day of another gruelling academic year would fill students with dread, but it seems that college is just one long party for them. DNA met up with students to get their first-day bytes.

First day of college is very exciting. Of course, we have classes, which we conveniently bunk. We have already made plans to go out. Though the euphoria is
suppossed to last only a week, it just might extend to the rest of the year. --Vivek Punjabi

Day one is awesome. It was so boring sitting at home for those two never-ending months. Although I met my friends everyday during the holidays, hanging out with them on the college campus is different. -- Sanjay Melwani

A new academic year means more fun. Even the HSC exams cannot spoil the fun we have in college. I agree that the pressure will be more this year, but as of now, my parents are taking my share of pressure. -- Rohan Shah

Now that college has begun, we will visit our second homes— all the cafes and theatres around college. I'm damn happy that college has started. Things like academic
pressure don't bother me (at least not at the beginning of the year).  -- Dhanshree Mehta

This year, the first day is pure fun, but last year was my first year in college and it felt like I had entered another planet. This time, I haven't even stepped into the classroom. First day is meant for partying with friends. -- Shifra Baviskar

There is something about college. You feel like coming here everyday. It is not just your friends, it is the chilled ambience of the campus that attracts you. Not to forget the good ol’ canteen food with those old rickety chairs and tables. -- Neeraj Hinduja
