A Day on CAT

Mother interrupted my dream early in the morning. She told me "its 5:30". I checked my mobile to confirm that she was not lying. Unwillingly I rose from my bed. I brushed leaning to the wall. Thinking about bathing was more worse. Mother had reminded me that water was too cool. Somehow I adjusted with that water. lost the sleepy face only after the bath. I was too tired and wanted to sleep a bit longer after watching Chelsea's victory late up to 12:30. By the time I finished my shower mother had my breakfast ready. I felt sad for my mother for making her wake up so early and making my breakfast. She always had a hard life, waking up early and when the breakfast work was over she had to run for work and after the tiresome classes again back to the household works. Whenever I was at home I have only seen her resting on Sundays and other holidays. And when she had to face some minor health probems she might have suffered worse on working so hard for us. May be this is the case for all mothers. I finished my breakfast in a rush keeping an eye on the clock. As I washed my hands mother gave my bag and she was making sure I had taken everything with me. I bidded a fast bye after hearing some advises from her. As I passed the gate, I turned back to see her face again and I was sure she will give a smile on her affectionate face with a sign of blessing. I reached the bus stop in few seconds. I gazed at my watch once more. Its time for my bus, and there it was just a few hundred meters away. I managed to get a seat on the side of the window. I was on my way to Calicut. I had to write the exam CAT. It took me 2 and a half hours for me to reach the centre. Upas, my collegemate was having the same examination centre. As he was a native of the place he could take me to the centre easily. The gate was covered by the candidates like bees at the hive. I could find a couple of familiar faces in the crowd. After completing the initial tasks of the examination procedure we had 2 and a half hours left for 90 questions. As it was my first attempt on this exam I could only manage to reach upto 20 questions. But I was confident that I can write it well if I try it a second time. After some discussions we left the scene by an auto. Many of my friends called asking about the exam. I wish I had attended more, at least to impress them. We left to college at night after roaming in the city for a few hours.

Passanger Train...

Next train is at 2:40 pm. The man at the enquiry counter said. I looked at my watch. Another two hours more. Imperceptibly he added. There is a passenger train at 1:15 pm from the second platform. I was relieved hearing him, and I went back to the waiting room to join Alex. We shifted to 2nd platform taking our belong with us. We were on our way back to college after attending a marriage at Kottayam. The train came within 10 minutes and we got a seat next to the window. There was no rush in the compartment. Alex was a bit tired and he climbed on to the berth to get some sleep. I sat lonely watching the passengers at the platform. Actually I my eyes searching for some college beauties. The platform was really busy although the it was the peek of the noon. A cool breeze came seldom to get rid of the hot climate. I was sleepy and so I was resting my head on to the window frame. I don't remember when I fell in to the sleep. I looked at my watch to check the time. I have slept for alm...

Weigh what you Read

The game was in good progress. We had started to create a formation for making the goal. Each player had started to mark a player at the opponent and it made the game more interesting. It was just a 12 year herd playing a time pass football match. The ground was really tough for us to cop up with, the contour was fluctuating for the full length. The match was interrupted suddenly and I saw Arif and Ajith flooding to the right corner of the ground. I shouted at them and asked to get back in to the match. We got hardly an hour a day for games in the busy schedule of Navodaya,my school. I understood they were running a bit seriously, and i joined them. I saw someone sitting on the steps laying the head on to the lap. Afsal was standing right next to him. He was consoling him. As I advanced to the spot I could identify that it was Sadique and found he was crying. A millions of conclusions came to my mind. May be he might not be well, or he might had heard a bad news from his parents, even ...

Luis Figo- Someone to admire!!

I was in 9th standard. It was the season when I had started to love football. And so I had started to see many major games on TV. I got familiarised with many teams and players. I enjoyed World cup and many good tournaments. One day Aneesh, my classmate told me about Figo. He said that Figo is a great player on the mid-fields. Later I saw his game and was amazed on his skills. I became a true fan of him and kept on watching his games. It was Euro'04. That too in Portugal. Al though I was a supporter of England, I wanted to see Figo win. Watching Portugal's game I thought they deserved the cup. They made their way on to the finals. Greece. The other finalists. On analysing their path I could find that they had just luckily entered to the finals. Praying for Portugal I sat infront of the TV. Figo played an amazing game. Made many good chances. But all his efforts were in vain. Again the luck has helped Greece. They won the game on the goal of Charisteas, with a last minute...
