First experience at NERIST

It was a simple day today. I was unable to play cricket because of NCC and workshop due to which I felt very sad. So while being idle for an hour today, I thought about my experience till now at college. What things I have gone through and what all the things I have learnt. So I went into flash black and remembered my first day. It was raining heavenly on that morning. I missed my first class of drawing as I didn’t bring my umbrella and I was all wet so I decided to move back to my hostel and attend the classes of the second half. So after lunch, I went to attend the classes and I reached a little bit early. There’s were classes of seniors going on and at that time I didn’t know that the rules of college are different from that of school. So seeing the students I thought that I am late so went in. It was mathematics class going on. The teacher there asked me where are you coming so I told that I have come to attend my class. He asked me what is your course code and obviously, I didn’t know it at that time. So I thought that I should check my mobile for it. The teacher got frustrated at this and then he insulted me in front of the whole class. I felt really depressed at that time. I went out of the building and thought of calling Maa and telling her all about this. I made a decision that I will no longer stay here, I will leave. My father was also in Guwahati at that time waiting for his flight. So I thought to call her up and ask her to call father and tell him to take me away. I was really crying at that time. So I took out my phone and was about to call her then I remembered my father’s words “You have to leave your home one day or other so why not now?”. And the words took me away. They were like inspiring to me. I then thought about my decision and realised that I should not give up so early. I haven’t told anyone about this incident until now. I had a talk with my father on a phone call later that evening and he told me one thing ” Always be happy. If you are sad then who will be coming to hug you?”. I still remember those words. And till now I have gone through many situations but this one was the most depressing of all. In the end, I would only like to say that always have a smile on your face even if it’s fake, have it. Who is gonna ask you? So that was all for today and until next time – PEACE OUT.
