The Long Delay

Yeah, it became a much of tedium.

Writing a blog is great, but to repeat a series of tasks again and again in order to publish it, makes me feel as if I am in a loop. The World Cup was far too much in a fast pace for me. Evidently, I could not comment on it its ending, because more pressing tasks literally are pressing me too much.

The life of a student is wonderful, they say. Might be; but ask anyone in India who is aiming for the IIT-JEE. I am not. I just happen to be a floating leaf amidst a foaming stream. I do not wish to be an engineer; I want to be an astronomer! But as preparing a delicacy often requires us to cook more side-dishes rather than the main course, I too need to give this examination in order to achieve the minimum of my dreams. In India, this one examination kills more people than the king cobra.

It is often not the examination itself, but its hype, its battle like confrontation, and its reputation being a do-or-die one is perhaps at fault. People often spend years (exactly two or more) to try and sneak into the premier institutions of India for Engineering: Indian Institute of Technology. When all hopes and aspirations come crashing, it is often hard to take, and the impulsive reaction is pulverizing both to the body and the mind. I myself is in this mad competition and I myself am a part of this preparation.

This preparation then involves institutes which ‘coach’ you to get into the institutes. Commonly called in India: Coaching Classes. So, now, what is the problem? They flood me with their nonsensical studies. And because of that I do not get time to write my excellent blog.

Thus, I will now commit my blog as a weekly task, and hope no more assignment of my coaching class block me from writing. I sincerely hope that my readers will bear with me.
Though I am not quite sure if that would be a grizzly or a Kodiak……
