Can't imagine quite the same sort of thing happening with college friends, and still less with colleagues. <BR/><BR/>Another advantage of this form of reminiscing is that, after many years, things finally fall into perspective in your head. Old enmities forgotten and that kind of thing... Fun.<BR/><BR/>You have a very interesting blog.

See what you have let loose!<BR/><BR/>It was so good to meet two of my old school friends day before. The time just fell away, and we were back at being kids, talking about the quirks of our teachers anything, everything!gautami tripathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192356825699543613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9403471.post-1146329596559710222006-04-29T19:53:00.000+03:002006-04-29T19:53:00.000+03:00Completely resonates with me! Told you I've been m...Completely resonates with me! Told you I've been meeting old schoolmates after 22 years as well, it feels so surreal. And it is so good to converse with people who shared exactly the same set of experiences, day in and day out, for 10-12 years. For instance, in my case - these guys were the only ones who even knew what I was talking about when I mentioned Chitrahaar and the six o'clock old Hindi movie on Doordarshan on Sundays and the ever famous Krishi Darshan. And of course all the old teachers and their quirks, their "gol fundas" etc. I was just thinking of writing a similar piece to yours on my blog!<BR/><BR/>PragyaPragyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10108317267020057415noreply@blogger.com
