My Journey From Childhood Dreams to Academic Revival

As a little girl from a middle-class family, I was not much serious about the future. I used to enjoy my childhood with lots of fun and used to do whatever that makes me happy. I’m the youngest child of my family so I was loved by everyone and so I was a fun-filled jovial girl enjoying my life.

Once my journey as a school-going girl began I was not much interested in anything at school and I was an average student. Up to my sixth class, I didn’t show much interest towards my studies. My elder sister studied in the same school and she used to study very well and she was the topper in her class. This gave me the identity of the sister of a topper girl. I was very proud of that, but also I wanted to create my own.

To create my own identity I started to study well and I tried my best to prove myself. At the same time, I used to participate in extracurricular activities too. In such a case, I was gradually recognized for my singing. Yes after a lot of group participation, I was given a chance to showcase my talent individually and made the fullest use of it which allowed me to give a solo performance at every upcoming school event.

At the same time, my gradual effort towards study was also a boon towards my journey, Yes! I was the class topper in the same year. As I said earlier this was a boon for my singing journey too as toppers are provided with on-duty without any opposition, this seems to be funny but that’s the real fact, right?

So I was shining in both fields with peace of mind and lots of encouragement from the staff members as well as my friends. This identity of mine personally encouraged me to learn and achieve a lot.

On this peaceful journey, there came a sudden wave that turned me upside down. I was shifted to another school for my higher secondary which was well known for their coaching and top rankings. There was no encouragement for such extracurricular or co-curricular activities which affected me a lot.

At the same time, I struggled a lot to cope with their coaching and the syllabus. I don’t have a good peer group too, so I was very much stressed and became nothing. I tried hard to make more effort but I used to fail in every attempt. This made me an average student again. Yes, I was unable to score good grades on my eleventh board.

After this, I decided to give my fullest and worked hard to score well on my twelfth board but there came a big twist. Yes! I belong to the 2021 batch popularly known as the Covid batch. The results were declared as all pass and were determined by our tenth and eleventh grades which pulled my grades to the depths of hell.

Because of such experiences, I was unable to join the best college I was even unable to get a counselling offer. My parents struggled a lot and finally got me an offer in management quota with high fee structures.

This affected me a lot and so I decided to give my best in this journey and I came back as that middle school girl who had a lot of dreams to achieve. Now I’m a pre-final year student who is very much interested in learning and exploring new ideas by which I can upgrade my skills and become an excellent professional towards growth growth-oriented challenging career.
