The Excitement I Can't Bear Anymore!

Hello friends! I am back after quite a few days. :P This time I am not at all thinking about the old ways when I was preparing fro my boards. Nor am I bothered about what goes on in mind after the exams.

So, this title tells you what? No...! I am just not excited about my marks. No...!! Not that excited about the new session. Hmmm.... ummm... ok ok.. will stop thinking so much about it and will reveal it. Its kind of kiddish but then its a very good feeling which goes through my mind each and every time during the whole day.

About a 15-20 days back, my brother visited US for a summit held at Stanford University. He was there for almost a week or so. And like any other sister, I had my own list without even thinking of whether he would be able to get those. Not even thinking of his strain, I made my own huge list which had many things. From a Swatch watch to a Ferero Rocher. From bags to shoes. From jeans to umbrella and this list just goes on and on and on. But then when I came to my senses, keeping my excitement apart, I realized that we get almost everything here. And also realized how irritating it would be to bring all those which we get in India itself. Then, spending a sleepless night I somehow (with great great difficulty) managed to cut off quite a few things from the list. I searched for somethings on an American Online Shopping site and (you believe it or not) the new list had entirely different stuffs in it. Not even a single old one.

I called up my brother and mailed him some things. He being busy ended up replying me with one or two words which made my excitement grow to the core. And finally on some particular day, he called me up and said he was going for shopping to San Francisco which made me quite happy.

And now he is back. Its almost 7-8 days since he is back and I still don't know what surprise is waiting for me.He being very surprising, keeps black mailing me and wants me to wait and wait and wait. And me being impatient asks him almost everyday to reveal the stuffs or let me know when he is coming. My heart thumps with excitement everyday. And if I happen to ask more he yells at me :P but still I keep asking him!! Keeping fingers crossed, I hope to get the BEST. Although I am sure he would have brought me something or the other because I know how caring and loving he is and would never make me sad!! :-)

The Life Before Boards!! :-)

As soon as I got the 9th standard results and got started with new academic session nothing was there in my mind except for the new textbooks. Teachers on first day asked us to be serious about boards but we had absolutely no idea about how 10th is. Then gradually we started having monthly tests , pre-boards etc...

In between we were tried to be made serious. Question papers distributed, mock tests, presentations, extra-classes, study materials and this list never ends. Then finally when the date-sheets were out I felt a little that yes!! Teachers were right!! Its do or die for us!! But this excitement too faded in 2-3 days.

Then what?!?! My regular studies started. It was the very same way I used to do in other classes. Then gradually the days were near and first was SSc (The subject which I m very scared of). This was the first time I was going to face boards and was quite scared. But then when I went to the exam hall and was reading the question paper I felt boards are just like any other exams or rather I should say easier than others. But yes!! SSc as usual was tough for me.

Then came Sanskrit the subject you need to learn the least but remember a lot! It went easily. Then came maths, English and finally Science all went quite satisfactorily. And like any other students I had my own plans of stuffs to be done after exams. But whenever I thought about it I felt as if the days are going slowly. And finally there was 30th of March. The final day of one of the hurdles(quite easier one) approached and I was very reluctant to study anything and was waiting for the list that I had created to be completed. But then somehow the exam got over and I was a free-bird again.

And now nothing special or exciting going on. But then there are three months. Lets do it slowly man!! Take it easy!! :P


So on the whole there wasn't anything serious with me before exams.

Then there was a situation which every 10th standard student would have gone through soon after exams. My cousin (now in 10th) is worried about her boards and was asking me for some advice and I had absolutely nothing to say. But then when I remember my old days I felt pity for her and adviced her not to be worried even a single bit and study the very same way she used to in other classes.


ALL THE VERY BEST TO ALL THE 10th AND 12th STANDARD STUDENTS WAITING FOR THE RESULTS!!
