Time 10 am
With all months long preparations and calculations me, Chanchal and my elder brother entered the counselling hall. We got to know that USIT (University School of Information Technology) and C-DAC are already filled and LBS (Lal Bahaudhar Sastri Institute of Management) and BVICAM (Bhartiya Vidyapeeth Institute of Computer Application and Management) are filling simultaneously. USIT and C-DAC are not our concern because both of them are out of my reach. We had believe with several calculations and searches of past counselling that I will got BVICAM.
Down to memory, Jitendra, my friend at sanmacs (No.1 institute for MCA preparation) said several times to me that he don't want to be selected in many institutes but in either one of these and hopes it will be BVICAM , which gives the best placement this Year in GGIPU (Guru Gobind Singh Inderprastha University) and I always answers his queries with single statement 'Tension mat le, ho jayega kahin na kahin' (Don't be tensed, we will definitely get good colleges) .......... and now although he is not but I'm counting for BVICAM.
The projector is showing information but it is almost one hour late . It is updating very slowly but my eyes don't want to skip any small change in information their. The Boy sitting next to me is on dice for allotment of seat. He has ranked around 200, came back and utter that I got BVICAM and still have 10 Seats vacant. I'm ranked 255th ,BVICAM seems tough, but hope of either LBS or BVICAM still persist. My roll no. is announced for verification of documents. I have only mentioned BVICAM and LBS in the preference sheet. As the verification is over. I don't know why but I asked the lady verifying my documents that I want to add DIAS (Delhi Institute of Advance Studies) as my third choice, she added that with a smile and passed my file to next table.
I'm back to my chair, waiting for my name to be announced for the allotment of seat. Here ranked 240th has been allotted seat, no announcement for closing of any one of BVICAM and LBS. Me and my brother entered last minute discussion if I'll not get anyone of these then DIAS is right choice or not?
Ranker 250 has been allotted seat, none of both is still closed. My name is announced for the allotment of seat, me and ranker's 252, 254 are moving towards dice . I heared with ranker 251 opting for LBS , its closed. Heart starts beating faster 'what know?' Ranker 252 is ready for allotment of seat and the seats allocation register is showing only only two seats vacant. and he is asking for BVICAM.
Only one seat left and one ranker before me. Would he take that or not? I'm not even think of this completely, ranker 256 standing adjacent to me asked ranker 254 " which college you will opt?". Answer is BVICAM. No hope, no pray, nothing going to work. I look towards my elder brother making a signal with thumb down. His curious eyes got everything. Announcement is going into my ears like a sword in someones heart. Why me?
A single seat is going to make a big difference. With sad mood I'm saying 'I have a hard luck, allot me DIAS'. I'm back to my chair and feeling restless, feeling that all the tiredness of I had got in this year is effective at this moment on me and am waiting for admission slip. Bhaiya have to leave and I have to stay there for dheeraj, who has ranked 450 in the list. He is hoping for JIMS and got that, Although we both are smiling but we both have our pains. We departed from there to our homes around 7 pm. Reached home, I'm tired, too tired, nothing is looking nice , but the next day evening when I'm checking my mails. I read a mail from abhi bhaiya and start feeling happy.

ONE PARAGRAPH THAT EXPLAINS LIFE ! Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he got due to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983. From world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: "Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease"? Down to memory, Jitendra, my friend at sanmacs (No.1 institute for MCA preparation) said several times to me that he don't want to be selected in many institutes but in either one of these and hopes it will be BVICAM , which gives the best placement this Year in GGIPU (Guru Gobind Singh Inderprastha University) and I always answers his queries with single statement 'Tension mat le, ho jayega kahin na kahin' (Don't be tensed, we will definitely get good colleges) .......... and now although he is not but I'm counting for BVICAM.

To this Arthur Ashe replied: The world over -- 5 crore children start playing tennis, 50 lakh learn to play tennis, 5 lakh learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals, When I was holding a cup I never asked GOD " Why me?".
Waiting for second counselling.........................
Quite a nice story..
ReplyDeleteI have to write comment and its mandatory too.ok.
ReplyDeleteAs far as blog's content is concerned it is good, bt can be made more exciting.Bt anyway its ur first blog, so its quite interesting.
These are ther real life challenges that occur in life.U have to face them.wat happened with u is a hard luck bt don't forget that hard work is urs not luck.luck plays an important life when u work hard.if ur rank were 300+ or 400+ then u have to settle down for JIMS or any other college.and u don't need luck for these colleges.
Now u r coming to the world where are many challenges and u have to face them.
many things are not in our hands and u have to leave them in the hand of The Almighty.
Some days ago one of my close person disowned me, all the hard work put by me in the relationship gone into vain and i was not able to sleep for 4 -5 days.
bt as the time passed i realised there r some problems, those can not be solved.U have to sideline them and move on.
So its my advice to move on in life , and dont take anything on heart.
Everything happens is a part of life.
Keep on blogging...
gud 1

ReplyDeleteTop to Bottom, Life is a topsy turvy ride.
Once u go down and then come up..In this way u realize the sweet taste of success over bitter taste of failure.
Life is reality..everything else is fiction..Ur failures at a point will be step stones to success at other..
My advice : - keep ur life simple. u'll achieve whatever u deserve....
Life is itself an experience by which we learn a lot. From where do we think end sometimes the real fun and enjoy starts from there. U’ve to learn from ur past and do ur best…….Its very nice and interesting story …I would like to say that u’ ve talent to write and most important to attract peoples …so try to keep it continue …best of luck…God Bless You.
