When I was in school, I used to think that college life will be more interesting than school life.But today, I am a 2nd year journalism student studying in Amrita University. Looking back on all those days when i was a school going kid, with a huge bag on my back, hairstyle was of a typical school going girl( 2 plates), dressed up in a neat and clean uniform..I seriously miss those days...

I am not remembering exactly what I felt at that point of time. A lady with a pen in her hand, a red ros
