Life after Exams and before Results

Half-a-dozen months ago , after getting in to an Engineering college against all odds of relatives I felt satisfied about my life's so called "Twists & Turns " . Days passed and I again came back to a normal life of an INDIAN student , assignments needed to be submitted day in or day out, and that to by any means whatsoever.
All this was just about started to prove more than enough ,but ! but! but! the dates of the University Exams banged in and guess what , all of a sudden my mind changed to Studies. Then came the big day , the day when you first face the exam which will genuinely decide your future, to be honest, though every exams do decide our future. Besides all speculations , the questions suggested by the scholars ,as if they have set the Q paper.
Alas ! the exams got over & I got an entire fortnight to chill at my place . Meeting friends ( connecting these days) asking the worst question ever after exams ," How was the paper dude ?". Bloody hell ! .
The summer was back , encroaching heat and hour 'n' half long journey to college.
As soon as you you enter in the class, at first you think that you have entered in a new class ,as you see most of your mates in altogether a new look , some appreciated and some not ! Exactly in the break you come to know that the results date had been announced , and when you ask the source you come to know that its not the university who decided the date instead it came from someone's friend's friend. " O Gosh " . On the next day you get news from your friend's coaching professor that so and so subject has so and so passing percentages....and you come to know that your best paper has the lowest passing percentage and eventually we get sleepless nights , thinking about the ATKTs , how many more subjects do I need to learn again and most importantly will I get placement ?

On concluding , perhaps this is the way it is . Its up to a person how he carries all this (non-sense) stuff. Taking it positively, it makes us strong from within and composed from outside. If you pass out this period I think you have cleared one of the biggest challenges in your life , keeping in mind the suicides of Engineering students . I just hope that I , you and we all clear this exam , if not with distinction ,then at least with 1st class , even pass class will do , because you don't get second chance always !!!
