Of Memories and Blogworld: Wear the Pride

@ 03:29 AM

[Note: Please make sure to leave your blog info in the comments.]

"Limbdi Corner (LC) is the place where over steaming glasses of tea and endless servings of samosa and kachoris friends are made, relationships cemented, people meet, students revel in the present, alumni rejoice the past and freshers stop worrying about the future. LC is the place where hearts meet, whole events are decided and convened, impromptu meetings take place, a hundred songs get written, a thousand theatrics are performed, where a few hearts get broken. A lot happens over tea, at LC"
- Pablo

I found this resting nicely in the archives of the chronicle, and you know what, just the mention of IT BHU brings my heart out and freshens up the old memories of IT.

Not only it has given us an identity, but our alma mater was the second home for everyone. I still remember how people used to make excuses of tests and exams and postponed going home during diwali and December vacations.

Many a times while surfing through the net you must have come across articles/blogs by IT students or alumni. It surely gives a certain feel of nostalgia when you read the blogs / articles by other folks of IT. Essentially the story will be the same but it's a great feeling by reading them again and again. While thinking on these lines it suddenly hit me, that while we flaunt it everywhere - LinkedIn, Orkut, etc etc why is blog world devoid of the unity of IT Junta?

So to start this tradition we have started using these badges on our blogs which not only looks cool but gives out IT identity mark also.

The Button looks something like:
