Well in my state a boy has to fulfill two duties in his lifetime.
1. burn the dad's funeral pyre.
2. appear in IIT-JEE examination.
We were no different. IIT-JEE results were out. None of my friends were able to make it. I was able to find a place in the extended list. But that was no good. I loved computers and no way in hell I will get the department with that rank. So, I didn't even bother to tell my parents about it. They would have forced me to take other subject. I can still see my failure as disappointment in my father eyes. Then AIEEE results came. We all were struggling to find a place in this cruel world. We just needed a place to hide our face. Luckily I got one in West Bengal.
I went to the counseling with my dad. We were waiting since 11:00 AM and now it was around 2:00 AM. I was still waiting my turn. My dad was furious at me. He was asking what the hell I did to get such a horrible rank. Around 2:30AM we left from there. I was happy, finally I got a college with Computer Science.
My uncle dropped me off to college. Dad was too angry, so he asked my uncle to do it. My uncle is a cool man, very c00l. He had a friend posted nearby my college. We reached the place two days before the college commencement date. So we had plenty of time left with us. He decided to visit Gangtok. It was a nice place. Guys who eat "Gutkha", please buy it before visiting Gangtok. You won't find it in the city. Although they have shops just at border but just a head up.
