Experiences of a Lifetime

I’m formally done with Test2s for this semester today. I have since a long time not had that absolutely liberated feeling which was once an integral part of school life. The joy of coming out of the last exam, finally being able to carry out all your plans (carefully carved out the previous night while studying for the last exam); (eventually realizing later that you don’t feel doing any of them anymore) is something entirely unique to school life. Ideally, continuous evaluation is the better method of education. But I don’t like it this way. Tests and exams are not an event anymore. They’re all over the place! They’re just little barricades that must be crossed (or cracked…whichever way you see it). Institute people /parents call it lack of sincerity. I call it Immunity.

Of course you study all the time

I never really cared to find out if it was bothering anyone; I wouldn't have stopped anyway, so why ask! During my school days, a few decent performances here and there had convinced me that I was really a good singer :-)till the BITS Music Club auditions happened! I guess it happens to many 1st yearites! Before I came to BITS I was told, I had a "happy" voice and sang Asha songs wel
