Final Lap!

September 18, 2011

Its September 2011… two months from now I’ll be appearing for my FINAL Examination. 4 years gone. With a wind I won’t say, but yes, they are done. It’s the final frontier now, the toughest and the most important. Seems to be a big battle ahead in November.

I know I am not prepared for the fore coming evaluation. The real world I’ll get into. Soon the passive case taking and presentation will turn to the actual dealing. Those in pain will turn to me for relief. Pressures of face off with the society coming up now amidst the exam stresses. Mind keeps juggling so many things at one go. May be that’s how every graduating person feels. An engineer might be getting a high with the money churning business he’ll get into.

Inspite of being dreadful, there’s a hint of amusement deep down me. N why won’t that be. I am going to live my childhood dream, a dream which my mom-dad saw when I was still in the cradle. A dream which could’ve shattered if my mom din’t show me what I actually wanted. A dream which was just what everyone knew I saw. Prefixing “DR.” to my name. Yes that’s what I really saw. If at all I had a time turner, I would have definitely taken a leap into future about 6 months. Coz this time is a real jittery.

But at the same time, I want to freeze this year here itself. The first half of this year has been one of the most amazing times I ever spent. College events, family gatherings, outings, etc. all just falling in the right place. Final year’s supposedly the busiest in terms of studies. But I had an added schedule of fun too. Knowing the real faces behind the masked ones, recognizing the true hearts, getting mentored by exactly the ones who can make a difference, spending the best times with the best pals, having the best holiday I had alone and also spending my birthday night at the hostel. All this came up in the final lap for me. I don’t complain for it. But I savour the essence of it for it did happen to me before my under graduation ended. May be that’s how college life has to be.

Nevertheless, the time has come now that I put in my effort to just be ready for the upcoming clash with the scrutinization. I know it’s going to be an uphill task. But without the Endeavour won’t be any result. All I do is chant the mantra “Aal izz Well” and look forward myself in that white coat with a stethoscope around my neck which for sure gives me a kick to get it soon.
