The Exams – Day 2

This time, I was determined not to fail. And with an extra ounce of effort (translated to – staying up to 3 am in preparing from every nook and corner of the book), I head out to work the following morning.

Another 2 hours … I clicked on the Submit button, and wait for the system to tell me my fate…

You know, it’s a really weird thing - that when you’re anticipating and waiting for an event to happen, it seems to take forever to happen. It was the case with me too. I kept waiting for an eternity (or so it seemed) for the results and finally, it was there:

“YOU HAVE PASSED !!!”

Score: 88/100

I was elated. I had passed…. Yipeeeeeeeeeeee !!!

I let out a yelp of happiness. The invigilator (Karthikeyan) gave me a thumbsup and a grin. I gracefully left the hall and waited outside for my friends to come out.

Again … I saw a sea of upset and unhappy and tear ridden faces (Krithika included). But, heck, I had passed, and at that moment, I didn’t care what the others felt – I was on the TOP OF THE WORLD!!!

Yahoooooooo … Time to hit a pub … Booze myself insane …
