Solitary afternoon, well, may not be literally, for I am being surrounded by a passel of aspiring students, precisely 58. But still I am alone, alone in this large hall in one of the most reputed womens college of my state. What am I doing here? Well I am here for my IES exam.
2:30 pm
All the people are brooding over the question paper lying infront of them and then scribbling something on the answer sheets. In the meantime trying their luck with the calculator, resulting in happiness for some people and brings melancholy for most. But where the hell in my calculator, oh! I forgot to bring it. Some are even trying to peek into other student's copies to get some clues. But alas they have got no friends here. I pity that fat girl sitting 5 rows infront of me. But her dedication is really laudable. God has not given her the flexibility to turn around and peek, but still she is trying her best. This is what we call perseverance and harsh conditions force even a dilettante become connoisseur of it.

Well just now 1 hour passed and I have been sleeping since the last 45 minutes! Damn! My mind censured me severely to go through the qns paper once again.....
3:05 pm
NOTHING! Am back analyzing. Most people are now uninterested in their papers. May be thinking about their compadres. For god sake who appears for an exam on such a sultry afternoon, but damn! I am sitting here doing nothing, except gazing everywhere. I wonder how girls can have such a propensity towards neatness. How can they be so fastidious! Even the desks are so neat. I cant find any stuff being written on them nor any kinda vulgar comments that we generally find on the benches of any coed college. Arghh! so frustating ! even the invigilators are having the freedom of bantering among themselves. I, on the other hand is just putting out my mind on the corners of the qns paper.

How can it be that I feel the entire question paper so unfamiliar. All terms seem so alienated to me! I should have read something man! Anyways who cares! new experience.;) I am scribbling so fast that the side guy gave a flabbergasted look at me. Must be thinking that I know everything or I have gone mad. *smirks* Finally the boy from whom I have lent the calculator in the morning session, has got himself into doing some calculations with it.
Damn I am such a fool in the subject! I know nothing..:(. Well lets try the other way around or say try to squeeze out something that may euphemistically improve my dolorous situation. Actually its all the fault of our educational system, our teachers. How can the qns be so unfamiliar to me! yes, its all the fault of our teachers! if they dont teach us how the heck am i supposed to know all these.
Still an hour and half to pass and I am not able to find anything that will eat away the time. So the best way is to let the eye lids follow the laws of gravity.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..
4:07 pm
Oh my God! still gotta more. oh let the time pass by i want to go back home and watch football world cup..ZZZzzzz..
5:00pm
TADAAAA!!! yeay! I remembered the time when i was in college and used to put my fingers in sports mode to put max info on the qns paper at the eleventh hour. But here I was just waiting for the invigilator to take that acerbic question paper from infront of me. Well times change and so does the mind. :P
Hope to put a better effort the next time (IF) i appear for the exam. Keeping all those thoughts aside, enjoying the moment of being freed from a very tedious afternoon, I flushed all the thoughts by having a glass of mango milk shake at a roadside vendor. CARPE DIEM baby..:D
