The Start - 1984
Well, the start is nothing but my birth. "1984 Oct" I am born in a place called Thallecherry in Kerala. I believe my parents telling me they were expecting a baby girl and unfortunately a baby boy.
No big dialogue that my fate is sealed and I'm gonna be an engineer or a doctor. My parents wouldn't have thought much on what I should be the future when I was born.
I don't remember much about what I did till the age of 3. All I remember is me going to school.
My School Life:
Name of the school I studied is ST Johns. Guy don't be surprised that I did my studies in ST Johns international. Though is not an international school, it was an awesome place for me as far as my studies concern and the teacher :D.
School is the place where you get to learn all. All means all ;).
As far as knowledge is concerned, I am not that great in studies. People can think I am the last bench student. Well, I am not. I sit in the 3 rd row in the class and sitting in the 3rd row just don't help. I daydream and I draw some carp on my notebook rather than taking notes and paying attention. My dad thought the day or the other I will improve and I will do good in my studies and I thought I can forget about the book and get into the dance which I love the most. None of this happened well. Should I call my self a loser?, I don't think I am a loser. Cause I happened to do my studies keep dance into my heart and pass all the subject scoring the minimum mark of 40 out of 100, which forced my school to change the center for the 10th board exam. Considering that I won't get through the exam. Fortunately, the one sitting in front of me was good in studies, luck favored and I passed my 10th board exam.
The next step entering the 11th were I had to face difficulties in getting the group I need.
Guess what scoring a 472 in my 10th and asking for the Pure Science as a group which no school will accept. And the same happened to me. VP (Vice Principle) of the school couldn't digest it. She said, my dad, that we can't give what your son wants, and my dad is like ok give him what you can. Now my fate is sealed with Commerce. The 11th first day at school some new face and more old face. People you like, people you don't like.
Missing your best buddy who gets to do his Science.
My Best Bud: Rajish R Unnithan (Now an Ayurveda Doctor) - we grew together, I know him from my KG. He is the friend who understands what I am into and suggests me what I can do. I have loads to share about you my pal.
Let me continue... 11th the bench I sat is the 2nd row and the bench mates are Victor (Pillai), Ashok Kumar (Kosu - Mosquito) I seriously don't know why this name was kept for him and Arun - he is no more. We miss you Arun.
1st Row is Natraj (Nut), Ramesh - I better don't say his nickname :D and Sudharsan. People might be thinking these guys are the class toppers and do great in their studies. Well, it's the other way around. People studying good and scoring good were seated behind us. May because the teachers would've thought we will concentrate more on our studies. They are wrong, we can't be what you think. We can be what we are. The studies got lesser into the head and the Crush list increased from 5-15 :D. I better don't name who they are.
Class 11th was going well with little of studies and a lot of fun. One more added into my life as a friend, but tell the fact we weren't that close... I remember the day we had a small fight and I got caught by a ma am. And that buggers name is Karthik.
Karthik is working in a reputed concern as a design engineer at UAE. He joined ST Johns in the 11th standard. As I said before we weren't close and now.. It's just we 3 Rajish, Karthik and I. There is a lot about these guys.
The first dance I did in ST Johns was when I was doing my 11th. We were a group of 7 or 8 amateurs who danced for the annual day. The songs were Get Down - BSB and Night Train. WOW, what an experience, dancing in front of 4 to 5 people in the auditorium. Yes, we are the bunch of guys in a Group which the school management doesn't like and we had to do the performance in the last one before the National Anthem.
11th passed away soon and stepped into the 12th - its the time for studies and which I hate the most to do and no other option left for me.
Mid of 12th standard my friend Victor and I started to drink. The first day in the bar was a scary experience though. With the school uniform on and buy one pint of beer (Black Night) and sharing it and thinking that we are high. After drink attending the classes and we talking crap. Especially Victor talking about the current account to the Accounts ma am is unforgettable. There is a lot like this. I would like to have a blog done for my friends where I can talk a lot about them.
12th Board exam and as usual i am lucky to have someone near me who is good in studies. And happen to clear my 12th board exam.
This is a short note of what happened from 1984 to 2002.
Life is still on. To be continued......
