Saras Library, where one could borrow books and audio casettes. Saras Common Room, which had a TV, a stereo system (that never worked), newspapers, magazines. We had a carpet in front of the TV with some Pillows on it. It was a great fun watching TV while lying down on the carpet.

Ofcourse, some crazy people insisted on sitting on the chair as you can see in the picture. Adjoining this Common room was the Table Tennis room.
