How was your first day at NIT Surat? (SVNIT)?

A friend of mine studies there at NIT Surat, here’s a snippet from his first day at the institute. 

• He was already familiar with the room as he visited the hostel on the day he went to the campus for admission. After setting up the room he contacted a senior to know what to do next. 
• His senior advised him to buy a bicycle as it’s quite a walk from the hostel compound to the classroom complex. 
• After a few hours, he went to the mess with his friends from school who also took admission at the institute and was staying in the hostel. Despite the reputation of mess food at any given educational institute, my friend vouches for the food at NIT Surat. 

When they came back from the mess, the light was out. They spend their first night in the dark. The power cut continued till the next morning.
