The Happy New Years
Neighbour asks what plans for New Year while i take Sonu out for his walk.
I say-"Aunty,I got an exam on 1st Jan...."
"Oh,God! Best of Luck beta.Do well"
Sigh......this has been the story for the past 4 years.Bludgeoned by exams.
1st year-Freshers,so college started late,hence we had internals.Not on 1st Jan but internals concluded on 31st Dec.All i did at 12 p.m was watch 'I,Robot' on tv,for the 2nd time.1st was at 9 p.m.You easily get saturated with it during the 1st time.
2nd year-This time we are in the eye of a storm.Exam on 3rd Jan.So atleast I have plenty of time to call and wish people.Spend the night watching 'The Road to El Dorado' for maybe the 5th time.
3rd year-The gap is closing up.This time we have an exam on 2nd Jan.No movie this time-just calling up people near and far,wishing them with the usual stuff.
4th year-VTU hits bulls eye.Exam on 1st Jan.I generally prefer catching a good nap on the previous night of exams.But guess I'll be kept awake by phone calls.
A couple of days ago,I'd called up a school friend whose b'day happens to fall on the 23rd of Dec.She kept droning about how she had to sacrifice her b'day and New Year celebrations for 4 yrs because of our very own VTU.
So,did i sacrifice my New Years for VTU?
Before B.E-my 31st Dec's were pretty much the same as the past 4 yrs-staying awake till 12,watching tv,calling up people.....Since i have been doing almost the same through B.E,it really makes no difference.
But an exam on 1st Jan???
Sure isn't my idea of a good start....but eagerly anticipating the year that follows.
Happy New Year to all bloggers!!!
