The Canister

The tide of time has washed me onto a rugged shore of rocks and pebbles. Yes, my fellow earthlings, I have finally reached that period in my life where I'm supposed to be enjoying the fragrance of those schoolbooks more (or rather a helluva lot more) than I usually do. I've reached the Tenth Standard. Study, study, study, study and study some more. That is the general policy to be applied. Just to get some marks in some exam that'll decide my entry into some college, ie, if I screw up, I screw up the rest of my life. Sounds rather calming and soothing, doesn't it??
It seems like only yesterday when I was trying to mug up all of them Math multiplication tables.........
