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.

It wasn’t a good day today I wasn’t able to play cricket bcoz of NCC and our workshop. So in the ideal time of an hour, I thought about the coming IPL and the T20 WC. As many Indian players are injured so the team is under a big threat as our bowling and opening department doesn’t look good after Rohit Sharma and Bhuvi being injured. All-rounder, his also out due to injuries. So it will be difficult for the team to proceed with the upcoming WC without all these players. Then I moved on to complete my workshop practical copy as tomorrow I have to get it checked. After that, I was thinking all about the assignment of our 3D printing and modelling workshop. Then I moved on thinking about how to focus or get control over our ki. I know that it is with proper meditation but I am unable to do it as I m not concentrated or determined. I do meditate but I am unable to go in so deep into it. I have started practising it nearly every day and now I am trying to get determined to some of the aspects of life and studies as well. So that was for today until next time – PEACE OUT.

It was an exciting day. We had our 3D printing workshop today where we were given a mini project and then our seniors made Shri Ganesha with the help of 3D modelling and printing. It was an awesome start for a regular day. As the workshop was at its ending, so we were given the assignment to make a model of anything which helps in protecting the environment. So at first, I was thinking of what I could print and I have still not decided about it. I thought a lot about it was not able to decide so I moved on. Then I and my friend thought of cooking as dinner today was not good. So an idea struck in our mind. All we could cook was Maggi as nothing else is allowed in hostel. So our master chef made it and it was really delicious. Then I recalled some of the scenes of the movie that we watched earlier today:- Texas Chain Saw. It was a really terrifying movie but it had a very good ending. The person who was the villain at the starting became the hero in the ending. So that was all I thought today and I also thought about the upcoming ICC WT20. As many players of the Indian team are injured like Pandya, Chahar and Bhuvi so the team is little imbalanced for the tournament. But all are hoping that they will be fit until the beginning of the tournament. So that was all for today guys, until next time – PEACE OUT.

It was an amazing day today. There were many incidents happened to me today. And for the one hour, many things came into my mind of which some I will share. First of all the thoughts, was the one in the morning. I woke up very late. I missed the bus two times and then I have to run the whole way to attend the class. It was a very awkward moment as I also didn’t know how I missed the bus two times. I thought for it for a while then I came to the reason which was:- time management. From the starting of the first semester, I have been very lazy. I often keep things and work pending. Which in turns leads me to difficult situations at the last. Like I was not able to get my assignments and practical notebooks completed on time. I was often struggling in studies as due to miss management of time I studied only at the last time due to which I wasn’t able to perform nicely. Leaving that all I moved to cricket once again. Firstly I thought about today’s game as it was not a nice one. The Indian team lost it’s top three very early. After that captain also went down at a very less score. All I thought was the average score that our bowlers can easily defend and get us a lead. Vice-Captain is still on the crease so there is no fear till now. So that’s all for today and until next time – PEACE OUT.

It was a boring day today. Time just passed out very speedily. Well, the day started up by me getting prepared for a cricket match at 7 am. We played for almost four hours and enjoyed a lot. After that, I sat down late in the evening to think about what to write but nothing stroke my mind. I was all empty. All I could think was nothing. So I thought to give up and start sometime later but then my cricket bat got all my attention. It was one of the most important things to me. Then I went into flashback. I remembered the conditions set for it. I was given the choice of a bat or a wristwatch for clearing boards with 90+ percentage. I was all set to buy a new watch after the results. But at the eleventh hour, I changed my decision and asked my father for the bat. First of all, he told me that what would you do with the bat as you will not get any time to play now onwards. But I was standing on my decision as I love cricket more than any other thing. So he bought it for me. I was very happy after receiving my gift. After that AB de Villiers superman catch in IPL 2018 struck my mind. After one and a half hour, I opened my cell phone to view the catch once again. So that was all for today, until next time – PEACE OUT.

So today it felt easy to write a blog as compared to the previous two days. We had a birthday treat given by one of our friends Shivam. Firstly we had great fun at the restaurant and then a photo session was held on our way back from the venue. After returning back I sat down to think about what to write today and I thought that I would write why I selected coming to NERIST. First of all, it was hard to take the decision of giving the entrance or not. But then my father said to try at least one time. Who knew that I will get selected. It was tough to make a decision on to whether to join or not but I was happy as I thought that it will be a good experience. I will get time to be alone. No restrictions, no time limit, nothing else only me and my own rules. But who knew that it was going to be the hardest part of my beginning journey. So in over-excitement, I agreed to come. After arriving here my excitement broke down a little and my father realised it so he asked me that I can cancel the admission if I want. But I thought about it that how much difficult it would be. And as I have arrived so why to waste so much time and money. So I decided to stay. It was all okay till the time my father was with me. But I burst into tears when his time to departure came. I tried to control my emotions but I was unable to do it. I cried a lot many times remembering about my home and the memories I had with my friend and family. It was a difficult task to settle at a place nearly 1800 km away from your home. Even today I start crying when I think about all this. So that’s for day and until next time – PEACE OUT.

My today’s experience was not a good one as I had a fight with my best friend on call. So firstly I thought for it only and I was literally very frustrated as it was just a small thing and we had a huge argument over it. Then I moved on to solving some questions of mathematics. Further, I started thinking for good use of time as time management is one of my greatest problems I have been through. I was able to get control over it when I was at home but now in a hostel, it’s becoming very difficult for me to do so. First of all, I thought of making a time table and following it but I knew that I will never be able to act on it so I discarded the idea. Then I thought for meditating for some time but I was not able to concentrate as a lot of noise was coming from the corridor. Then I went for a walk around the hostel. After that, I started thinking about the squad of my favourite team “KKR” for the upcoming season of IPL. I was just thinking about the most probable playing XI as team ha a released many good players and given chances to youngsters this time. So it’s looking hard for winning the title this time but none can’t say anything. These were most of the things that I thought during the interval. It was a difficult task than yesterday because of the argument but it ended nicely. So that’s all for today and until next time – PEACE OUT.

So today I started with blogging for the first time. It was indeed the toughest hour of my life. It all started by recalling the lyrics of some old songs. Then after a few minutes, my mind moved towards cricket which especially included the comeback of the legend MS DHONI on the starting match of IPL 2020. This sent me in the flashback of ICC WC19 semis, the darkest day of my life. I thought a lot about the consequences which had been if the umpire should have given it no-ball which he failed to. From then I moved on for a short walk around the hostel. Then I joined some of my friends in football. After my arrival back into my room, I was sitting just then one of my friends Babul came to my room and started sharing his experience of learning a new language that is Nepali. We discussed his experience. Then I solved a sudoku puzzle. After all that I started discussing the ideas of how and why we came to NERIST with my roommate. The first day was often a hard one but All’s well that ends well. Now it’s over for today and till next time – PEACE OUT.

Thanks for joining me!
