Like any other aspiring iitian , my first day in iit was like heaven(however things changed later).we were taken for a tour of the insti introducing us to various departments of engineering sciences and the facilties provided to us. the day ended with a registration session. after having my dinner in the mess(which was quite good contrasting my expectations) i headed towards my hostel dorm and waited for the seniors to come(for ragging).
now this ragging was not that much of ragging what i thought. we were told to introduced to a format in which we were supposed to introduce ourselves. it was like "i dont have a name my nick name is ....(your real name), my factory is ....(coaching), my jee rank is...., i am from...., my hobbies are....etc.". seniors ragged us and put our name (nick) which were like "fucked","murder","habshi","haulu(chutiya in telugu)" etc. for the rest of our life in the insti we would be known by these names.
we were told by our hostel seniors not to visit other hostels in night during the first month for we could undergo some serious ragging if caught by the wrong person. this point appealed me and i visited other hostels for various wanted and unwanted reasons. nothing happened to me untill i landed in pampa in its top floors. it was unlike the other hostels in terms that at the time i visited pampa 6th floor i was able to smell cigarette smoke in each and every corner. i went there to meet some senior regarding some literary activity. that senior was not in his room. i turned to the adjacent room to enquire about him. there was i caught by the wrong people(STUDS).
I was asked to put my intro first. i obediently introduced myself, then they asked me if i would be having any problem interacting(getting ragged) further with them.i happily said no.
all we had in that session was mostly related to either sex or girls. what horrified me was not their horrible behaviour but the condition of their room. it was like you could find atleast 4 ciggarette butts per square inch of their room. what surprised me was they were removing the tobacco of the cigarrettes and putting some green crushed leafy material in them (it's smoke had nice smell unlike cigarettes. there were hangers but all the clothes you could find in his room were lying on the floor. chicken legs were lying here and there. McDowells whisky bottles were in abundant quantity lying mostly below the bed.

I went to their room at 10 pm in the night and when i reached my room it was arround 4am.i underwent some other ragging sessions as well and finally got a name(nick).
