Rockstar senior!!!

when you newly enter college, you are usually supposed to have a crush on someone...batchmates, seniors, or even teachers...
i had one too.
this guy , i looked at him for the first time and found him to be the more sophisticated people around. given that the usual crowd of college was roudy, noisy, hep n happening, or even worse..the champu, nerd, jackass type crowd. (like duh! its srcc after all. what else do u expect?:)
so ya, on this one i had an immediate crush. i called him "intellectually hot".
his demeanour was reserved (or so i thought), his style of eloquence was perfect, as if coming from a well read man. each word , it seemed came out after a lot of thought process, weighing each connotation. the way he walked was perfect, full of confidence, "i dont give a shit to the world, but yeah, if need be, i do care for all" attitude.
yes ppl! i had a major crush on him.
soon, when i got the opportunity to talk to him(that was because we both were in the same societies of college), many pre conceived notions were wiped off.
firstly, the misconception about him being reserved disappeared into thin air quickly. he DID talk ppl, but intelligently.
secondly, the whole notion of him being a show off and a snob also faded because after all, i discovered that he too was one of them....funloving and happy going.
lastly, my views on him being "intellectually hot" remained there. intact.
man, he was university topper in frst two years of college, was an amazing debater, excellent actor, even director etc etc.
gradually when our conversations increased, my crush was over. i dont know why , but it was.
ok maybe i know why.
thats beacause i have a policy in life....when i respect somebody exclusively for his intellect, i dont keep a crush on him. i only keep it to respect. he becomes somebody i always keep admiring and learn from.
so now that abhimanyu is about to leave college, i will miss one of my most respected seniors i had ever come across. i may never have told him how much i used to look up to him, but now that he is about to step into his new life, i wish him all the very best in life. and also curse him for leaving college a boring place again, i mean left with not so great seniors anymore.
i want you to go to LSE abhimanyu, (of course only if cambridge, oxford etc dont happen). i will finance it dont worry. haha . main bond hun!!!.
here's wishing you all the success in life....and much more.
do great! rock the universe!
conquer all! aur haan...wil miss your cheek-pulling! :)
loads of luck!
rock on!

P.S. this little note was written when i was just going over in my mind the happenings of the past one year in college. i thought this was tthe most intersting part in my not so hapening life these days. thought of titling it as "tribute to abhimanyu" earlier but thought it to be too sombre later.
so here goes....rockstar senior:)
truly, u rock !
