My first hostel stay of my life, when i joined my engineering degree, started way back in 1995. The first room mate i had, whom i can never forget, always made sure to maintain a smoky atmosphere though there was strict rules not to smoke inside the hostel. Every night was a nightmare, he would bring in at least 3 friends, all had the habit of smoking illegal drugs, which take me almost to sedation every nite and being young and in the first year, i was not bold enough to raise any complaint those days. My first three months went like that with him, slept in a clouded smoky room every night almost in sedation.
