SIPS Reunion

Hi all,
Its going to be a year soon,since the day we came out of college, we are no longer freshers now,as all juniors even have got their offer letters..All my close frens are out of collg , and are doing wat they want,except for one guy,only guy who went to do medicine,as he didn want the Ctrl-X or Ctrl-C , Ctrl-V job..

 Today, I was speaking with one of my friend, in company, we were seeing the holiday list , and our leave request tool,so as to find how many days we have leave for a year,it was coming in total to a month, huh.. Then i realized , my college time, we had one month of odd-semester holiday, and 2 months of even semester holidays,then diwali hols,pongal hols,onam hols,amma jayanthi hols,etc etc..Now I realize the value of those hols..
Wat else I thot,I miss now, my frens of course, the dark messy hostel .. Messed-up hostel rooms gave me more joy than neat houses,(though we don clean our house even now,occasionally we do wen someone comes to our house) untidy,muddy jeans gave me more fun than neat  formals,(though I don wear formals, still my dress rack is full only with those,which I hardly use ),messages gave me more joy than phone-calls, of all the things , playing AOM gave me more fun than blogging, ( Now I have no other choice,other than this ).
I was jus thinking of all my frens,none of us are first-benchers,not-famous through out the college,hardly people knew us,outside our department initially, later it was all cos one thing we were labelled, and people found it amusing, we were labelled as SIPS Gang, in 3rd year,don knw which semester exactly..
SIPS , goes as "Samandam Ilamal Pesuvor Sangam" , was inspired from Kaipulla's Varuthapadatha Valipar Sangam,at that time Sangam was very popular, and hence we took the same..
SIPS is no where connected to academics,not logic,all we care is irrelevant stuffs,in fact the word logic is not there in SIPS's dictionary..
It all happened in A-401,don know wats the name of the hostel we wer,our third year hostel, wer esteemed Ashok,Gautham,Abi,Elavenil stayed..Ashok,gautham,Abi wer the ones who started this,and it spread like a dragon through out the college,and was immensely popular..It all began with gautham,who used to respond weird'ly when asked,it wil take some time for us to understand wat he spoke, god knows the reason why he started that..and we have to respond back to him,so the other 2 coined the word SIPS,and reply as sips to him,then it became popular slowly,from EEE Dept to CSE dept,and later slowly we started to reply back totally irrelevant to the question asked,and we had fun doing it..
For example, Comb your hair,as u r nt wearing ur ID card..For beginners it may sound as a dry joke,but only people who had done that ,wil feel the joy in doing so..The biggest publicity SIPS got was when our placement dept organized a college level contest ,to find the best guy proficient in giving speeches, during which all of us have to speak abt a topic, tat time one of my friend,Prakash , spoke about SIPS ,in front of training staff n students !!So it became popular among our batch guys,in all departments..Later we came to our hometown for our semester holidays and , we used to play,chat ,so it became little familiar to other college guys too..The biggest part was, during our final year,final semester,we went to IIT-Madras,for Saarang, a cultural fest, getting OD forms from dept in the name of CEGs Kurukshetra,a tech fest..During which we realized those students in IIT and CEG when speaking used the word SIPS,though they never knew it came from a dark room in Amrita Univ Coimbatore..Now , all of are in different places,and SIPS is spreading fast everywhere,even in my company,some of my frens know!! Once u are into it,no way u can come out if it,and someway r the other u wil definitely reply as SIPS..
The sensation which began in A-401 , traveled to G-141 in final year hostel,and the rest is history !!
Couple of things,which I have still in my memory, our tour to Valparai in final year, and our SIPS video for alumuni meet..We made a video , out n out for fun , dedicated to our seniors , during last year's alumni meet,and we won the first prize for it too..The movie is not for critics to rate but, to enjoy , the movie is of type VenkatPrabhu , directed movie, our SIPS gang's favourite director..

For SIPS to live , there were significant contributions from 2 people , namely Master Sai , and Legend Gautham, the adaimozhi indicates their post in the gang, Legend and Master are the 2 posts which are in the highest level in our gang,and both wil be occupied by these 2 forever !!

The above pic shows only a part of the gang,while the gang is so BIGGGGG!! ( U can find 2 proxy's there too,near the signatures of the board-members :) )
U can find more details about SIPS gang in Facebook group , SIPS Gang , ( gid=360990245940 ) .

 I never expected to go to alumni meet again , but thinking of alumni meet made me think about my college life again, and hence am moving to coimbatore this weekend for meeting my SIPS fellow-mates..

SIPS valga !! Dedicated to all those people involved in SIPS !!
Vande mataram !!
