Four years at MIT have passed so quickly that the memory of me unloading the luggage and setting up my room in the hostel still lays fresh in my mind.I had mixed emotions on that day; impressed with the scenic beauty of the campus, excited for the new journey, nervous to live away from home, hopeful to meet new interesting people and more. After four years, this journey has been full of emotions, sleepless nights, endless conversations, tiring workload, lots of misunderstandings, sponteneous plans,g reat friends, countless memories and so much more. Here, I made friends who I would cherish lifelong. MIT taught me a lot a things and changed me as a person, and it has been a good change.
One such unforgettable memory would be making a self sculpture in the open electives. This once in a lifetime, extraordinary experience was thoroughly enjoyed by all 12 of us. We worked our way through those 2 weeks on the terrace with the cool breeze, rains and nice music in the background, while having clay fights, fighting over music playlists and laughing over the failed attempts to produce exact replica sculptures. These were indeed few of the best weeks in MIT for me.
