2014... Its been a hell of a Year .... Last of the School-days .... Board ... Joint ... MCK.... d most eventful yr of My life .... Partings with school friends one hand and making new friends and even babas n maas at college on the other hand .... the huuuuge pressure before d joint xams on one hand and becoming a part of d MCK family on d other ... This yr has really etched a deep mark in my memory - a mark that wont fade away ever ... 1st January 2014 - the first day of the year - I spent almost the whole morning typing a looong msg about Krishna nd Draupadi .... .... It ws really a remarkable morning >_< .... The yr began with xams knocking at the door ... 1st d Pre-boards ... Riti came running to me on the first day of d xam nd also d first school day after d winter holidays) and asked me in my ears:- sotti?? >_< ... then d results ... day on which d results were out, I was told d curious history of a guy whom, I always considered to be an alien or some cyborg (d story really didnt settle that though) ... those lep-moori-diye-pora before the upcoming board xams... those late-night texts with Sourav , Riti, n Shreya ... those Together-Withs nd NCERTs ... and those short MCQ drives in betweeṇ... The boards rushed in like Rajdhani xpress ... d first day I arrived at d Exam Hall about 15 mins late :P ... I remember it was 6th of March that the IIT JEE prelims were held … That evening maa asked me to bring all my MCQ books ... As she turned through the pages of d objective books, she realized with horror the ultimate truth : I had not even solved 3/4th of d MCQs ... she asked me what I had been doing the whole year, if not the MCQs ... I remained silent ... Only one and half month was left before the WB JEE ... the next day she started marking the answers to the biology MCQs and told me to do read them coz I didnt have enough time left to do all those MCQs ... I would go through the solutions to the physics and chemistry MCQs nd she would sit beside me to keep a check on my studies as well as go on marking the answers in the mcq books ... I was alloted a seat at CA Schooḷ for d WBJEE… I made a sketch of the examiner in my maths ques paper … :P Then followed the AIPMT and the AIIMS …. All these exams had taken a great toll on me n had worn me down … moreover I had presumed - I woudn’t fare well enough in any of the exams so as to get chance in any of the first 3 clgs in Kolkata… And going outside Kolkata for studies was JUST not an option … Although I never had much of a dream of becoming a Doctor but still the low expectations, inspite of my mother’s toil, made me feel very guilty … Baba forced me to study for the entrance exam for Physics at Presidency and had submitted a form for the same at Xavier’s… The results came out soon…. 1st the CBSE Board result came like the first shower after a droughty summer … one of my closest friends, Shreya had scored unimaginably HIIIGH score in CBSE and had hence been interviewed by a newspaper and a news channel... I asked her for a treat that I never got -_- … Then the WBJEE results came out … 5th June…. I was pacing up down my room while Maa in the next room was going on checking the WBJEE official site every alternate minute … In the meantime a frnd called me up and asked me how was my result ... I had not seen my result yet and d phone call made me more tensed than ever … anyway the Wbjee results weren’t too bad … a subtle 152 was all that I needed …. I was happy that I wud get chance in a medical clg in Kolkata…. Anyway In first counseling I was allotted to NRS med clg… where I was bullied by my seniors for not having asked their names :O … but fortune is a strange woman …. And although I don’t deserve it, in d 2nd counseling, I got chance in Medical College, Kolkata…. The first day at clg was a remarkable experience ... we were welcomed as the new bachha batch … and were called upon the dias at GCR for being introduced nd for being “chaat”-ed -_- … I had my school mates, Shabari, Shraddha and Sanghai here … but again fortune is a strange woman coz although the other three got allotted to d same batch but I was left out for Batch B …. But as time went on … Batch B became my 2nd family … with Deeksha as my mommy … Jhilik and Dattatreya as Masi and Mama respectively … Manisha as my Grandma … and so oṇ… the family expanded and encroached into Batch A with Anchal as my sister … finally it merged with a similar parallel family in batch Ḍ.. although my father and grandfather r yet to b decided, today d whole of the clg is part of my family… our clg baba’s- Sanchit da, Ritwik da, Niladri da, Mithilesh da, Indranil da – whom we can look upto for help an assistance in case of all sorts of toubleṣ… our clg maa’s … and then there is Rohit as my husband ( :P ) and Prachi as my daughter :P … and Binit as my partner in convincing others for treats … >_< Sooo much has changed this yr … from school to clg …. From MCQs to 12 marks questionṣ… from NCERT to AKD (y u do dis God?? Y u send ppl lyk AKD to Earth??)… from best friend to best mausi ….from not being allowed to go CC alone …. To going clg street alone … from returning home by bus to returning home by auto with a body guard … from being the murga who has to giv others treats to being a chamar who would get free treats from others at all costs >_< …. And yet again soo much has NOT changed …. I haven’t shed even a single kilo … I am still running after the same girl I have been running after, for the last two yrs (even she must b tired of me… >_< ) …. I am still that shameless idiot who doesn’t do half of the classes and remains asleep in the rest … I still draw mock-portraits f teachers… AND ABOVE ALL I STILL GIVE THOSE DAMNED MYTHOLOGY LECTURES!!!! As I look back at 2014, it really feels strange how fast time can fly…. now it seems that d morning I spent typing the Draupadi msg with Physics NCERT book open in front of me,was jst a few days ago … I have realised that one can neither prevent d good times from running away.. nor can one just fast-forward d bad times …. Bt once they r gone one will inevitably fret that the good times didn’t last long and b happy that d bad times hav gone… for me, this yr ws full of botḥ… and hence I too am perplexed by such illusions of time… Now all I want is to retain the memories of all d good things that happened to me throughout 2014 , forget d sad parts nd just move on into 2015… and of course with no new yr resolutions at alḷ…
