GRADUATION

 Well, I thought I’d write this the day the results are declared. But then, the day the results are declared is, well, the day the RESULTS are DECLARED! And I honestly don’t know what great swing my mood will take on the day. So, here goes..

Graduation!! A great, perhaps one of the most important part of life.. and I’m past that great period..! But hold on a sec! I am neither sulking over it nor glorifying it! 

And if, after three years of studying literature, m sitting over here clueless about what to right next, I am gonna have to kill myself!!!!!!!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!

Or perhaps it’s the overwhelming nature of the experience that I’m writing about that makes me so clueless..? Whatever.

Here’s a checklist.. as the first step to review the last three years.

Great friends: Check.

Great time: Check.

Satisfying Achievements: Check.

Good Results: Check.

Adequate Co-curricular participation in college: Check.

Interpersonal Relationships: Check.

Marriage Proposal (what! A grad girl should get one J): Check.

Love: Check. (Apna Enrique h na :D)

“Bada” hona : Check. :P

Bunk karte hue pakda jana : Check. Meg! J)

Teacher(s) se gaali : Check. (Thank yu so much, Library J)

Prizes and appreciation. Check.

Recognising oneself: Check. (at least at the moment I think so!)

Drink/smoke/drug: Uncheck.

One Great Emotional Upheaval: Check.

Encounter with weird people:  Check.

Encounter with Really Great People: Check.

Feeling Proud and Blessed: Check.

Feeling terrible and miserable: Check.

Grad Party: Check. J)

Well, then Yes, the grad-years were satisfying. FYI, I like the mixed bag kind of feel.. for failure is as much a part of life as we don’t want it to be. And the running away from failure.. Man, O man, that’s the real thrill of life :D Its like you got a cape on your suit and a massive fan behind you is trying to pull you in.. and you run and run.. for you know the moment you slow your pace, in the fan goes your cape :P

I also feel that I have grown up! The 3^rd year results are due in a few days, and I also got my M.A entrances coming up. But here I sit, completing this write up! I don’t have my heart in my mouth (like in 2007), nor am I shouting at every living soul I lay my eyes upon (as in 2009).. So, yes, I am emotionally better balanced now. :P

These years have been really eventful!

From Fresher’s Day compeering to Annual Day Felicitation.. from the very first thing, to the very last. From being the lonely student to being a part of PWC- Dept. of English Family! From crying alone to crying when alone.

From a non-grad to a grad! :D

That’s something, aint it? J

YES, WE DID IT!

@meg, @qd, @vasu, @PP, @chamiya, @slishi, @megha : I l0ve yu gals.. sooo sooo0o0o0o0o0looooo much!!

In the end, as Spice Girls said it..

As we go on.. we remember, all the times we spent together.

And as lives change, come whatever.. we’d still be Friends Forever!

(Sabne ek dusre ka ghar dekha and then apna ye pyara blog hai na J))

Itna pyaar diya tum logo ne ki mere to aankhon me aansHooon ki boonde aa gayi :’(

P.s : Maybe I haven’t really grown up as much as I’d like to think I have. Ai want to write so much m0re, but the result-scare aint allowin’ me to do so! :’( 

Signin 0ff with a big bag 0f mixed em0tions.. Until the next time, that is J

C ya soon with my next. :)
