Need for space and no questions please…
Happiness will leap out of every student's mind on the
last day of their exam especially when they can enjoy the remaining part
of their life without it.
This was exactly my
thought on June 4, 2012. I was waiting to finish my last exam. Although
it was a tough exam my mind concentrated fully on the post exam period
thinking how to enjoy. This happiness lasted for next few days.
As I got placed through campus recruitment I did not think about
looking for a job. Neither did I want to write any competitive exams nor
pursue higher studies. I had worked hard for the past four years and
all I wanted to do now was read books and learn the veena for which I
could not spare time during my college days.
Fear
started to creep in my mind when my relatives started asking questions
like “Are you still at home?”, “Why don’t you take up a part time job?”
and advise me to “Prepare for some entrance and pursuer higher studies.”
I was ready to enjoy my days till I had to join but
their questions annoyed me and I started avoiding family gatherings.
The plight of students who have not got placed was definitely worse. I
joined a course just to put an end to everyone’s never-ending questions.
But why are people always concerned about others
rather than concentrating on their own life? I chose engineering stream
for the sake of my parents and I am leading an artificial life for the
sake of society. Again the question — why an IT career after EEE? And
again I will have to explain infinite times to these people about my
personal interest but guess my views and my freedom are the only
questions which have no answers.
