I started this blog almost a year ago, and from that day I constantly babbled about being stuck at home, being jobless and idle all the time. I wrote depressing posts, I cried, freaked out, abused God, my luck or my family. I prayed for nothing but to get out of this place and get into a new college. Today that day has arrived. I am off to a new college. After spending the last two months appearing for interviews, exams, counselling all over India, I’ve finally been selected to a college in Bengal. The last two months have been hectic for me. I was constantly travelling, through trains, flights, buses and what not.
I am not writing much these days, but after torturing all you guys with my depressing posts all through the year, I thought you all deserve to know that I’ve finally got what I wanted. A college, a hope, and a way to do something worthwhile. I just hope I don’t miss this chance, repeat the mistakes I made in my previous college here, and start taking life seriously. I’ve learnt many things in this one year, sitting at home, reading, writing, starting a blog, witnessing true success stories, I feel I’ve finally grown up.
I still can’t believe that I am actually going to be a post graduate in the next two years. I’ll be the first one in my entire family to join PG at such a young age.
Well, the other news is that, yesterday my sister gave birth to a little, cute baby boy, and that makes me a maasi (aunt). I am really lucky that she delivered a day before I had to leave for college. He’s the first baby in our family, after I was born exactly twenty two and a half years ago.
Hmm…Post graduation and an aunt… I feel old. 😦
