“ First Benchers ” What comes to your mind whenever you hear this? Perhaps your mind starts portraying the picture of that studious boy with spectacles on who can only think of studies and studies only. Many of you would agree to this and possess similar mindset. Although, this might not be the case and just a pre-assumption. Let me give you an instance. You all must have seen those  pictures doing rounds on social networking sites  where first benchers are shown like geeks who know nothing beyond the world of books. We automatically assume that first benchers are like ‘ Chatur ’ (popular character of 3 Idiots); First benchers do not like to bunk lectures and….. all that stuff.  Busy in getting clicked or talking                                          However, the truth is that the position of the bench does not decide the type of student you are. Like, you may find that studious girl in your class who attends ‘mass-bunk lectures’ on any bench and not specifically

Just as I stepped out of my home I found the weather very pleasing and on my way to the destination drizzling started. After walking down in this lovely weather, I entered my class and found that there was no electricity in the college (most irritating thing about the rainy season which we

If I do not listen to music for days, then my mood goes down. Sometimes, when there is a lot of tensions’ going on my mind, what I need is music player , with headphones or without headphones.
