Preparing for Sanskrit Exam

 With excitement I opened my Sanskrit textbook to study. I was amused that I had begun to look at the book keenly as the exam is approaching.

As I began to understand the concepts I was filled with euphoria. Ah that eureka feeling is so blissful.

I reminisced. My exams during school days were to please my parents. Or else I would be caned for low marks. And of course I got caned a lot. 😁😁

In college exams were again done to avoid arrears.

My PG exams ,again at the last minute, were done for the sake of sustaining my career. 

Today I am taking up my text to study as I view it a challenge to memorise ( ah yes lots to... ) and the thrill of facing an exam. Competing with myself finally.
