Graduation

Phew! So after several breakdowns, existential crises and a bunch of "no I can't do this anymore" I've finally done it! I'm graduated now. Most of you who know me might be wondering why it's such a big deal for me.

Well, the most cliche answer is that I never thought I'd come this far. No, for real, I am currently the highest educated person in my family along with my mom and dad. There are a few other members who also have graduated I think, but no one has gone beyond that. Well, my dad has a master's degree in chemistry so I'm yet to overtake him. I'm sure we'll get there too, just wait and watch!

Okay, so this blog is a documentation about all the good and bad times (I'll try to keep the bad tone to minimum) I've had while completing my bachelor's. So let's go! Hope you enjoy reading.

The First Step: Hostel Life

Given that I never lived anywhere but my home, I was heck scared to move out. A little bit excited too, but the percentage of "scared" was much, much higher. I kept wondering how I am going to adjust with three other roommates, what if I have no friends, WHAT IF I FAIL TO SOCIALIZE!! But amidst all this, I kind of forgot that socializing is something I'm good at. I realised it after I reached my campus and making friends was easy. 

Well, not quite enough but I'm gonna cut all the complaining and keep it positive. Sure, there were a few fights and a lot of arguments in general (not my fault, people can be very b*tchy sometimes). But I still came out with the best bunch on homies I can ever imagine. And I'm planning to keep them for a long time (until their marriages atleast because I need good food in my life). 

Academics: The Ultimate F**k Up

This is where I lose my senses and my will to live. God, I hate chemistry so much and that was one of the major subjects they handed me while admission. Like bro, atleast give me a choice or a warning! I was so annoyed because chemistry and me, we have a really bad history together. I *whispers* failed that subject once! 

Anyway, the teachers were good so this subject was bearable. My other two subjects were just biology so they were easy peasy. But yeah, I still did badly in my first semester because I'm Ayushi, I'm lazy. Didn't fail anything though, haha. And then, covid happened and everything shifted to online. So I got a chance to redeem myself (basically cheating) and got good grades. I did work hard with my assignments and practical vivas.

Friends And The Sky Made Everything Bearable!

Well, our campus is one of most beautiful places I've seen. And my friends are the most beautiful people I've met. So everything sort of was beautiful automatically. I like clicking the sky every now and then. Especially pictures of the moon so that was very convenient when I was in campus. The evening walks and the conversations I've had with my people, everything was perfect. No complaining there at all! Here is a glimpse of the sky for you.

Pretty isn't it? So yeah, at the end of everything, it was all fun and games even though it quite wasn't. Most importantly, I survived when I thought I wouldn't. And now here I am trying to go further into the black hole of another academic bullshit because I need to get a job. Sounds very fun, yeah. But one thing I know for sure is that I'll survive this one too and won't be alone. 

With that, I end this rant. But I'll be back again because currently I've nothing else to do (except studying for my entrance exams, ugh!)

P.S.: Also, I started this blog on 14th May, 2021. That means I have successfully maintained this for a year now. That's also a major achievement for me, lesssgooo!
