Golden Night
The last night of each term in the college is called the “Golden Night”. This night has an always been of great importance in a cadet’s life because the next morning, cadets have to leave for their homes after a tiring 3~5 months long term in the college. With the expectation of being with their families the following night on one hand and the feeling of parting with friends and room-mates on the other hand; a tingling sensation is induced in the heart of the cadets.
The cadets mostly remain awake through the night and some indulge in interesting activities like throwing water over the sleeping fellows, polishing their faces while they are asleep and many other innovative mischief.

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or night:
“Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.”
—Henry Miller (18911980)
“What is the good of a man and he
Alone and alone, with a speckled shin?
I would that I drank with my love on my knee,
Between two barrels at the inn.
Oro, oro!
To-morrow night I will break down the door.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
