The following was the RG written for the hostel nite... Not everything needs to be true!!
Praveen aka Buddi
Less on food; more on work!
Intentional insomniac!!
In 'perfect sync' with ppl he has good understanding with.
Powerful shooter of football
Fault finding nature
Coffee addict (indeed Aztec) had his own coffee making ingredients at room
Character who can pack a quiz to get the intern he loves!
The rate at which his beard grows is faster than that of his hair.
The one incident many people might remember involving Praveen is an accident on his way to Mahab only cycle. He was on course along with Normal and Gay on cycle at midnight when he suddenly crashed into a stationary lorry. This accident left a nice sovereign on his face…
One of the best footer players in the hostel…. But still, he managed to get himself injured in practice matches leading to schroeter during his first 3 years. Too much enthu to play footer but at the end of almost any day’s play, is caught with some physical ailment owing to his random schedules of footballing. Here is a guy who b(r)ought more footballs to the hostel than any other sports sec ever had….
Nuclear physics God….. He published a paper…… He is very interested in Nuclear Physics and regrets not putting up a decent fight with his parents during his admission into IITM but thanks to that we have a wonderful friend…. one of those different guys who realised he is in wrong place quite early. He had to sacrifice a Japanese intern in Nuclear Physics due to Mech dept…. Die hard hater of Mech dept…
Books…. His room has more books than the hostel library…. He insists on reading a book of his own rather than someone else’s book.(?) with all these books in his room, you will never find a place to land your foot…. Once during Shaastra, he gave his room for five friends they neatly racked up the books so that all of them could sleep there…. As soon as buddi got hold of his room, its back to normal in less than a day..
He had more dinners in CCD in 3rd year and tiffany’s in 4th year than in mess… if we count the number of times Praveen goes to mess in a month, it will be around 45 and most of them during tea-time.
A person who doesn’t fear to voice his opinion and straight-forward in his approach (most of the times), though it lead to problems. Wrote mail to IVil group on its structure(including profs.) and the work going on, in the most satirical way possible which unfortunately was forwarded to the “Dons”(profs…this is wat he called them) and later had to meet them, luckily no after-effects.
On the whole: "A fine (but superior) human being with immense potential; currently wasted in external soul searching."
