**An ode to my Alma mater, Amrita School of Business(ASB)...The time when every day was a celebration, our college days...Here is an attempt to revisit those fond memories...
#The mango lawn
reminds me of Soumyaji. I don’t think anyone among us appreciates and enjoys
food the way she does. The visual that I get when I think of the mango lawn is
munni devouring a chocolate or even our canteen tea!

The Mango Lawn...
This
is one place which is going to be so fondly missed. The mango lawn, just
outside the ASB canteen beats any roof top restaurant. After the 5 o clock
classes and during the in between breaks, this is where all our happiness
spills over to.
The small talks, the fights, the
celebrations, the photo sessions – you name it and the mango lawn has played
host to everything.
Many a time, we have witnessed the
drama practices by engineering folks from here.
It is here where Nano was kept
during Pragati. The numerous pics that we have taken sitting around the rock in
the middle and even on it J .
It is from here that we spotted the
forest fire on the elephant mountain.
Not quite far, the happy benches
under the neem’s shade provide solace at those times when the lawn has a ‘Sub- Saharan’
weather ;) (read noon).
Come dawn and the sodium vapour lamp
comes alive and so does the lights in the faculty rooms. When the security
bhaiyas are less attentive, steal a moment and lie down on the lawn. Nothing
beats the view of the star – lit sky.
The mango lawn owes its existence to the ASB canteen. The canteen will be more dear to engineering students that to us for obvious reasons :) . The only things which most of us found edible were the ice creams that came towards the fag end of the course and the famed tea!. And for me personally, the cornflakes :) .
