Thump thump thump... The opponent charges in... Raises the ball for a shot......Rejection!! No. 7's tapped the ball away with an awesome defensive move and grabs it..... The ball's moving down the court.....He's just a blur.....He goes through the defense, breaking their barriers..... Crossover....Marks his target..... Fakes, fooling the defender....... Leaps..... Raises his hand up with the ball.... He soars.... He shoots..... The ball bounces off the board, moving ever so slowly..... The crowd waits with fingers crossed in anticipation...... The ball rolls around the rim.... And he SCORES!!!!..... The crowd cheers... He thumps his fist in the air, savouring the moment........

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.........
