It was a pleasant Thursday morning, when I landed at the Guwahati airport with my parents. From there began a journey, which has been exceptional till now. The cab ride from Guwahati to Shillong was eye opening for me. The scenic beauty on both sides of the roads and the landscape changes were mesmerizing. We reached the campus after a long yet refreshing ride of 4 hours. As soon as I entered the campus, I immediately fell in love with it. The small green hatched roof rooms to the bamboo walk way, everything was different from a typical college campus yet very homely.
