I love four things. The first, I haven't done till now (I am 26), but, yes I believe every male would love to do it !! So, lets be serious. The second one is listening to romantic songs, while I drive my way to the office. I believe it is the most enjoyable part of my daily office routine. Third in the list would be debugging software programs [yes, I am good at it, and I am a computer science engineer]. Fourth one, giving aptitude tests...
So now, the second and third ones, I'm a master. No issues there. The problem comes when my ego is often hurt doing the fourth...
Well, let me give a brief history...
When I was in class 6th, I was horrible at maths, but good in English. My father decided that I should give the entrance of the Kendriya Vidayalaya. I practised rigorously for two months, and though I did not ace the test according to me, I came second overall in that competetion...My love for competetion and competetive exams was born.
Next chance came when I was studying class 10. It was a mixed year. Though I performed well in some of the competetions, I fared badly in the mother of all junior level competetions -- NTSE. It shattered me, though somehow I mustered the courage to prepare for the board exams...
Failure in NTSE taught me something - I wasn't the next James Bond !! I would have to slog it hard to stand amongst the brightest of all !!
