1992-10-23 - Friday - Again superb breakfast and lunch. Bus at 12, left at 1. Reached Parthi at 4:30 pm. Unloaded and went before Bhajan. Problem delayed bus entering Nilayam - Red tape - 15 minutes. Swami talked to Warden. Met Shailesh Sir, "best semester". Swami created a watch for Rammohan Sir. Drama boys daily chances. Swami giving interviews to boys on request. Canteen not yet inaugurated. Sanjay Sahni Sir (who was Parthi hostel warden at that time) says Swami may go to Brindavan for 2 days. Swami gives beautiful watches - some "ordinary" Citizen quartz, some with unique pictures of Swami on the dial.
1992-10-24 - Saturday - Deepavali - Music program was nice. I sat in Ved Narayan Sir's place (which in those days used to be on the verandah, a few steps from the interview room door). Discourse full of jokes on Sathyabhama's jealousy. Crackers worth quite a lot. Rockets were scary as unpredictable and fell into people. One fell behind Swami, unmoved. Got Padanamaskar. Mostly (we're all going to Brindavan) on Monday. Wrote letters to A3(Parents and sister).
1992-10-25 - Sunday - 9 AM to 12 AM shopped around for photos, bought 20. Sent Amma (Mother) card for (her) B'day. Swami called Sanjay Sahni Sir and told him Parthi boys can come to Brindavan - Swami is leaving tomorrow. Only main drama boys will stay back. Ate veg rolls for dinner + breakfast, too tired to walk till sheds (where the temporary canteen was located.) M Raja Ganesh (a bioscience batchmate all the way from XI to MSc) depression lifted when Swami took his letter.
