Life was moving slowly, slow and steady...the weather had been good for the past couple of days. It even rained the other night, quenching the thirst of the not-so parched earth, cooling the nature and lighting up a fire in many hearts.
Happiness isn’t exactly the way I would describe it, but a general air of acceptance hung around. The usual mundane work, struggling against the self to sit with books, searching desperately for a bit of desire to go through them...yeah...that’s the way it was...when it struck...
Like the cold, depressing wind out of nowhere, it was as if a million dementors had been set free to feast on my soul and feasting they were...that’s how the news came...exams for more than a month...from the 10th of april till the 14th of may... what have we done to deserve this? A bunch of students like us, who never hurt a fly(figuratively)! The hangover of exams is bad enough, and then if it is for a month...I’d rather give up my soul before the ‘dementors’(read: examiners) can snatch it away...
Just that there’s another way of looking at the whole thing...fight back!! Like producing a patronus...and a whopping strong one at that. If you’re looking forward to break our spirits, and imprison our souls, we are the freedom fighters who’ll keep fighting for the freedom from the exam blues. And so party every time we take an exam(thank god for the long gaps in between). But come what may we won’t let this helluva one month get into us...we will NOT let the dementors suck our souls to satisfy their hunger.UNITED WE STAND...DIVIDED WE FALL...
