I still remember the first day, 1st July, 2007, I reached IFMR along with my dad at about 12.50PM on a scorchy sunday. By then, I had known only 3 people at IFMR, Swapnil(my current room mate), Uttam(incidentally my first friend at IFMR), & Sathya. Coming from an engineering background, I was used to the various cultures but was never exposed to this extent. Yeah, first few days were terrible, given the fact that it was my first time out of my family, and Gosh!!! I missed them a lot! And to my horror, I was put up with a senior, who thankfully, saved me from all the possible ragging sessions!
