Are your dreams and interests really yours?

 I was a student at Bal Bharati Public School when I first thought why not become an astronomer. It was 4th standard, I didn't have any clue about this but I had an idea. I didn't know what an astronomer actually does but there was a strange fascination maybe due to those olympiads and maybe because it was different and people appreciated this.  Was I interested in the idea because it was different? It could be true, I would never know. 

2 internship at the same time

 So I took up an internship on 21 cm cosmology in Raman Research Institute in Bangalore. Today was my first day and damn it's a nicely build place. Quite chill and people here are also very cool. Quite a relaxed place to be in. It's not the hustling metropolitan part of the city. Really loved the research methodology followed here. Doing things at your own pace.  Also I am not able to give as much time to GSOC as I want to. I will have to time manage properly from tomorrow and stick to that schedule.  Let's see ...

Don't know if I have it in me or not

 From 10th class I have been failing in my own eyes. From JEE to low marks in 2nd and 3rd year of college to drop year after 12th, I am not able to do what I want to do. Are my expectation too much for myself? I don't think so. It's that I am not changing my process to learn and succeed. I have been stuck on my ways and doing the same mistakes on and on.  This semester was a welcome change where I challenged so much of my beliefs and tried correcting them. At the end of the sem, I still did many of the same mistakes, but somewhere I changed. I am not the same person as I was before and in a good way.  I will periodically mention about my past three years whenever I get enough time and will. For now, I have two exams ahead of me and I have to deal with them practically. I have to study both QM2 and STR before 28th. And I will study chunks at a time without distraction now.

Third year is about to end

 Hello there, my end sem exams for 6th semester is going on and I thought why not to document the process of learning. Maybe this would help someone to not make the same stupid mistakes that I always do in my life. Nevertheless this would also be fun to read 10 years ahead.
