My journey...
The journey started when I was admitted into Nava Nalanda high school,Kolkata in the year 1992..Today it has almost come to an end when my M.A part 2 final examination got over on 16th jun,2010...A long journey with various ups and downs that generally happening almost every individual's life..but the harsh reality is I still have to continue..There is no employment opportunity in this country for a person who has just studied 5 years of a subject(graduation+post graduation)..isnt it an enough qualification for a person to get employed in any institute with a lucrative salary?the answer is a big NO....one needs to pass through trials and errors through different competitive examination..school life ended with passing of higher secondary examination from Ballygunge Shiksha Sadan...I still recollect the first day of Rani Birla Girls College in 2006,the memories of which are lingering afresh in my inward eye...my mind was crowded with fears of different kind..and at the same time excitement of stepping into the college life which one desires the most...Sadly I couldnt enjoy the college life to my heart's content because of the intriduction of three year examination system and maintenance of strict discipline in RBGC(which we used to call then a prison-cum-college)..Later I realised that this was required otherwise I could have drifted into a wrong direction..Henceforth I am grateful to all my teachers who directed us towards the right path of our life.!!2009..end of college life and beginning of university life...the feeling that I have suddenly grown up a lot though pained initially but found English literature more interesting while doing post graduation..I consider myself lucky enough to get acquainted with eminent teachers like Prof.Krishna Sen,Prof.Chinmoy Guha,Jharna Sanyal,Sinjhini Banerjee, and many others who has left a deep impression upon my mind..their teaching tremendously influenced me and I came to know many other things beyond my limited boundary of a fixed discipline which is so necessary these days..K.S mam,our oracle taught us to get ready to be exposed into the big bad world,so we need to prepare ourselves for that..I still cherish the memories of having spent few hours in the coffee house,college street boipara,and relishing glass of sarbat in paramount..nostalgia grasps me now and it's really difficult to get rid of it..Today we have already been exposed into the big bad world according to K.S mam,but I dont know how strong and fit I am to get accustomed to this world that's summoning me to join with it...The journey will finally come to an end when I will be contented to see that I have become successful in life finally...Therefore I am still waiting for Godot to arrive..waiting and waiting!!....
Good thoughts! By the way, who is Godat?
