Then we had planned for a trip to Bangalore which started as scheduled on may 12th but the surprise came when we were in the train that the results would be out on may 14th… we were In wonderla on may 14th and we came to know our results only from there…. We would have been one of the very few n lucky who knew the results while chilling out at a theme park...
Then came the biggest surprise when the AIEEE results came and I was the top ranker in that from my school (actually only two qualified for the counselling one being me)... actually I did have some hopes because I knew that I had done well and my expectations usually are correct as was the case in my 10th,12th and now here. now dont ask how… It was something I could be proud of always because firstly I had made it with absolutely no preparation and that too while competing with people who had one years preparation under their belts and secondly because I had fared much better than people who were in the same situation as me…
I attended the counselling and I had been allotted chemical engg at NIT-Rourkela. I came here to enrol myself but after seeing Rourkela I decided that I am not going to spend my college life here because I knew life at Chennai would be much more gr8… so I decided to attend the counselling at Anna univ also where I had been allotted an electrical and electronics engg seat at Sri Venkateswara College of engg, Chennai.. My mom agreed to put me there and I was really looking forward to my college life...
I was supposed to come to Rourkela again to get my tc and we decided to come on aug 6th....then came that phone call which turned my life on its head, when I spoke to the Tamil guys over here I came to know that I had been slided to mechanical egg which was a really tempting offer… I just thought for a while and then decided that I would be digging my own grave if I abandoned the seat at NIT… so instead of coming here to get my tc I came here to begin my coll life…wat a turn around!!!
Only after a week or two at NIT I realized it wasn’t a bad place after all…. If we take life as a learning experience we can turn any negative into a positive…
