It's a "Xavier's" thing!

• As I was reading a blog post by a Xavierite about "you know you are a xavierite"...I cudnt agree yet disagree more on some of the points. Being 'In' xavier's is one thing, but 'Being' a xavierite is another thing. So here is my list on things that make Xaviers what it is and the things that spice up the life of a Xavierite.



• A true xavierite hangs out more in the Xerox shop opposite Furtados than in the college library before or during exams.
• Forget the Muchhad paanwala...outside Xavier's we have the muchhad sandwich wala who makes mouthwatering sandwiches...and if you know him well, he will throw in an extra sukka sandwich too.
• Fr Terry's office is a place to go for all heartbreaks, family problems and career councelling for girls. For boy's, its the place to check out ALL hot girls in the college!
• At some point, EVERY Xavierite has cursed Cama - the railway concession lady!
• 15th August means Malhar, not Independence Day.
• Sunlight is the place to be post sunset.
• Getting lost in the huge campus of Xavier's is a matter of pride!
• Joe.D is the most hated principal in Xavier's history as he banned all the good stuff - sleeveless, shorts, prom nites, malhar socials...
• Breakfast on wednesdays are reserved in the mess to eat crispy medu vada.
• In one year, an average Xavierite spends more time in the foyer than in the classrooms.
• We invent new college fashion and the rest copy us. Period.
• No matter which batch you pass out of, we all have atleast one Xavierite batchmate who is a famous celebrity.
• We give frogs names too and Puddles is his name.
• If its Malhar, it HAS to be Security, Assistance and Texx (in that order). The rest of the departments are for the "uncool and hardworking" crowd.
• The terrace classroom lectures are always scheduled after the break and they end up being the lectures most bunked.
• Sneaking out of the classroom during Prof Sam's lecture is next to impossible, though he is blind!
• The Hall is a place visited ONLY during the admission process or during blood drives.

As someone rightly said: Xavier's is not just a college, but a way of life. And if you haven't studied in Xavier's, you haven't studied in college at all!!
