I be Junior today.

Just checked my "academic profile". status: junior with a small J as if it were just the same as freshman.
it feels so strange and crazy, exciting and distressing! All at the same time!
Here i was "merely a freshman" or freshie for females ;} but now im a junior..the one that my grammarian Seniors used to be, right before they LEFT LUMS..well maybe not RIGHT before but soon after! My god! i dont want to!!! so today on the "first sighting" of my junior status i hereby list all the things that i will miss about lums all the things that i love about it, my red brick buddy!
today will also be my first for using bullets on blogger!

• the green green grass and the due-yy feel to it when walking at night in ure typical ehsan chapals
• the smell of the library (I cant reallyy remeber wat its like right now but the new wood at the KIC sure smells good!)
• the morning smell of the academic block
• the mist in winters that makes me feel so proud of my navigation skills that take me to the superstore from the academic block by default!
• the superstore people.
• raju and reema's friendship. hai. but no friends, strictly keeping it to lums.
• stalking "the-one-who-must-not-be-named" and calling it "findingnemo"
• Treading nemo's expected path in hope of a new day. (again, Lets not go there!)
• The DRs. thanda kamra!
• e-lab, printronix the annoying zing, and the lovely laser printer that we discovered (about a year and a half later)was not free like the air conditioning so it became even more ofa luxury to print the lovely prints from it.
• so here's to the expenses @ lums!
• the mango milkshake in the scorching heat of the summer quarter
• the lemonade and its inflationary defects.
• nooodles!!! go indonesia!!!! indo-mei noodles!!! also a victim of rising inflation!
• umm..rikhsha ride away from the miseries of the orientation sessions!
• no more riksha rides due to my changing moral tendencies =p!!!
• staying the night at sir kamaludins for sehri...namaaz e tasbeeh (my first) [sigh!]
• The short ride back home after a loong tiring day....the street lights dim in empathy or so it feels!
• the long road into phase five with its brilliant street lights standing like ambitious athletes holding mashals to light the way! (maybe i got a little carried away! sigh.)
• the labs and the password...and the sheer uselessness of the notices outside saying; "food and drinks are forbidden in the lab" ----> wahahah. no! u kidding me? lol
• umm..the raaain and the wildness in the central courtyard and the road outside pdc
• oh the pdc and its yucky smell..and the fact that its beeing constructed in front of me..all big and good looking now
• ah the foot ball field that has presently been dug over..but was once our good weather haven!
• the masjid...jumma prayers..my retreat!
• the library dude..and the tension in the place during the dead week
• the gate.that big black gate that spells victory!
• the entrance, which i drove over never again to be seen behind the wheel inside lums as punishment!
• the road that ive walked in times of transport crisis..be it winter or the sun!
  
  will continue though i still havent been able to pick out those few things that have changed my life...cant seem to place my finger on just what ill miss the most...
