The only "conclusion" that we can draw from this "meeting" is that...*we need to do it more often* 
We are a pack of five:
We are a pack of five: Anaya, Mrudula, Shilpa, Prachi and Sonal.
Me, Mrudul and Prachi are from one college and Shilpa and Sonal are into another college, but we are together because of our coaching classes, “Mensa Commerce Classes”
Each of the four holds a special place in my heart, and I will always thank the stuff above for not making my college friendships a cosmic joke as it was in school.
Back at school, I had very few friends who had “a compatible wave-length” (as my mum put it) mostly owing to the fact that I read a lot-lot more and had a bit off-track (then called “weird”) likes and dislikes.
They said I’d find perfect friends at college, where folks are supposed to be a bit more pickle-headed (mature as in). Oh! How I wished that happen, or more so, I wanted it to happen!
So, well I’d spend days thinking about the kind of friends I’d like to have and what kind of stuff we’d do together!
But, the stuff above had other plans, and my classes started way before my college did!
May sound cliche, but it had a silver lining, and that was…
That was when I met Shilpa!
My first friend of 11th standard!
However, within a few weeks of joining the class, I had to shift to the evening batch because of my I.T practicals. But despite the distance, our friendship survived, and the credit goes hugely to Shilpa, because she kept thinks alive by frequent calls and stuff like that!(credit, the giver of benefit; a golden accountancy rule, applies here a huge deal!)
Now that we are back together in 12th, we are still trying to make up for the lost time!
Shilpa is the most softhearted gal in the group, and can catch even a slight change in your behaviour like a seismograph catches a sight tremble in the earth’s surface! Also, she hates it when it’s her behaviour that upsets you! That’s what I call “possessiveness” for friends, because when you are possessive about a thing, you tend to care for it all the more!
There is one thing about her that I envy, her long-long nails! My nails never seem to grow that fast or when they get long enough to be filed, I suddenly develop an appetite for them!
Anyways, she never judges people easily and gives everyone too many chances to improve, making her friendly with all!
Then comes Mrudul!
Well, she is like my sister, my better-half ("sweeter"actually,when I generally end up angry she is always there with a lot of "its ok's" and "calm downs") and the one who’s the most compatible to me!
And then there is the fact that too many people at college have asked us the same question, “are you two sisters?”(owing to the fact that we actually "look alike")
Initially we’d say “no”, but then such questions bug me real bad. I mean, even if we were sisters, how the fuck does it affect other people?
So I’d say “yes” anyway, and I don’t think I was ever wrong in doing that!
Ow! I haven’t yet told you the best part haven’t I? It’s the fact that we are totally worlds apart when it comes to likes n dislikes!!
Seriously, she has no eye to catch the divinity of Ian Wright!! Everything about us is different, but still she can see through me real clear!

Seriously, she has no eye to catch the divinity of Ian Wright!! Everything about us is different, but still she can see through me real clear!
As for Sonal, I met her in the evening batch of Mensa. She is the best study mate you can ask for!!
Someone whom you can bank on for always being there, giving advice only when asked for, cracking witty jokes during lectures and stealing secret glances at right cues! She’s the gal you go to if you want latest n crazy songs on your mobile through blue-tooth. Seriously, if all the gods were to resign, Sonal would actually start worshipping “Lord Blue-tooth”
We love to discuss sums with her, because arguing with her is a a frustrating stress buster!
(You generally end up telling her to listen to you first, but when she stops talking, you are laughing so hard, you can barely speak!)
Prachi… Prachi…Prachi (here’s my cue to sigh)
This gal is a complete enigma to me! She is like an iceberg, what you see above the surface is real small as compared to the stuff inside!
If they’d let me rename some people based on qualities they posses, I’d call Prachi something like “grace” or “patience” or “calm” or “tranquil”. I have never once heard her raise her voice, not even once! She can shut up the most “stinky-headed loud mouth” with a patient ear and a soft voice!

Thanks to them, I can finally say, "To hell with the past, I have great pals to take care of"
People at classes are actually jealous of our friendship and twice there has been an attempt to break into the fortress called "sisterly bonding" by a frog (do you call a female frog-"ess"?)

here, *I 'm hinting to a gal with extra large eyes that go far from appealing* and a walrus (the frog's best friend) and at both the times, we got them easily dissected!
Friends, they say understand more than you speak, as in, something like “reading between the lines” but these idiots understand my silence!
I feel blessed to have found such beautiful friends....
