How I prepared for my board exams

By



Well, I had become very lazy by the end of November. I had my pre-boards in November and when they got over I was exhausted so much that I took a break of 1 week ! Then December came bringing much more cold than expected, and I had to study for 3 months from that time at home( December, January, February).
I had confidence in my ability to handle the exam and the pressure along with it myself so I did not join any coaching center nor did I go for any tuitions. 
I had ordered four booklets of sample papers however, and I thought of using them only after completing  the syllabus again by January. 

So after 1 week of complete rest and isolation from studies I set off for the preparation of a very important landmark of my life, " The Board Exams". I went to meet my teachers on my birthday (1st December) in the name of giving sweets, I met them and received the things that I would really require during the coming months, that is, blessings , advice and encouragement. Then, I really began my journey for the boards from 2nd December in my room. Since it would be really cold I would wake only at 7 or 7:30am and would read stuffs, literally only read. Then the morning would pass slowly, and from 10am I would begin my study. I would study boring subjects during these fresh hours like History or Economics or Geography (Political science was interesting for me). Wow! I would tell myself, "I'm studying for the boards" would be a constant source of inspiration for me from me. Then after having  lunch at 2pm I would study 1 chapter of science( Anything PCB),then I would read some part of novel(the diary of Anne would be quite enthusiastic, as both of us were teenagers), then I would listen to Mozart,or Bach in the evening, with 'chamak challo' to relieve stress and 'breakup song' to imagine some things in future and sometimes I would play some songs over and over again on guitar as I did not have time to learn the chords of new songs, so old was gold at that time. I would listen to all this for about 1 hour as I wanted to steam off all my worries and be light. Then I would practice maths for 3 hours, and finally I would revise the things that I did during the day and sleep well sometimes, or else I would go back to study again till 1:30am and then sleep with satisfaction.

I would study other important subjects during the weekends when my parents would be at home and I would feel much easy and relaxed. 
Like this I spent the two long months of December and January. Then February came which meant I had to bring some changes in my schedule, I changed the schedule completely, in the morning time instead of studying SST like before I would do a sample paper completely with time constraint of 3 hours from 10:30 to 1:30. I guess practicing the sample papers really helped me in my boards, and learning the most important skills for the exams, that is, time management and presentation. I would solve one sample paper everyday as a regime and correct the paper myself. And I would revise the concepts I'd make mistakes in the previous day. This was my schedule for February.
I will soon publish another blog for how I did my boards. Stay tuned!

  The following are some of the abstractions I've drawn over the last months. Though this is personal but I hope you find something synonymous. Okay let’s begin. Trust is like a plant (or a baby); something that takes a lot of time and effort to materialize. As a matter of fact, it is also something which can be shattered within a fraction of a second by barbarous actions. So always be conscientious about whom you’re providing your trust over. If you’re that kind of person who takes promises really seriously then remember this fact that there are tons of shit heads who take promises like a fairy tale, and you’re bound to get disappointed by them at some point of time. Exchange promises with someone who values them, not someone who treats it like a casual cup of tea you get round the street. If someone wants to be part of your life make sure they agree to your terms; terms that will soothe your mental health and not devastate it beyond restitution. Be it friends or someone you

To my classmates

Today was the last assembly that we conducted as the batch of class XII Science 2019, though time was at it's own pace but today I feel that it somehow   was biased, maybe it passed quickly for us, it just didn't feel enough, I hadn't even talked to some of my classmates (yes some) , and today it's over, the life that we had been hearing about from our seniors, the life in which each one of us were in our cozy comfort zone suddenly has come to an end. Now the life actually begins, and what is depressing is that our friends will not be there with us to handle the choices or the problems that we'll encounter on the way to our ambitions. Look at the size of his shades *-*   Yes as cliché as it may sound like, memories are the things that we really take along the way, you see when I was in class 10, I didn’t do much and I have no memory except studies (which does not qualify as a memory; they were concepts) so this year I feared of committing the same

These Days

It's been the 19th day since I've been ingesting 10mg of fludac; fluoxetine to be precise and I experienced some repercussions only in the 7th day and last Saturday and Sunday, these repercussions were short lived, it didn’t continue for many days on straight thankfully, I got really scared when these did occur last Sunday as well, but apart from these I feel adequately well, battling depression I feel has given me the mental strength and the emotional agility that I'm proud of, though the process of acquiring these were neither desirable nor easy at all, I don’t think that anyone would like to be 10X sad for no reason, and endure that scenario for even a second, yes, it just doesn't make sense, but guess that's what the white coats call depression. It's been 7 months since it first held me but my medication is helping me focus on the important aspects than finding comfort for the extreme darkness that I used to go through during that period. I know that
