I rushed past a few rickshaws sitting in one myself. The chilly Saturday evening made me hug myself.

“To begin in a law school never appeared an easy task to me. One may either squander these 5 years of life by competing with others, or one may make use of it by competing with oneself.” This is the thought which strikes my mind very often.

What happens when a private law school, bang in the middle of nowhere, with stringent weekend outing regulations decides to raid rooms- check every single belonging including cupboards, sometimes in the absence of the occupant and goes onto frisk every student coming into college? A group of irate, ...

Finally the thing I had been waiting for since last three years now was accomplished. It was hysterical. An internship with the man himself: DJ Jazzy Joe.
