“ONE BILLION ONE GOLD”

                We all proud of India as a land of  heritage, traditions ,diversity  and a country that produces many leaders. We are very much privileged to say ourselves as an Indian. After Independence our nation shows a rapid growth as a developing nation in each and every field. We know India is filled with more valuable  resources like  agriculture,economy,industries, IT sectors, telecommunications,imports,exports etc.. which makes our country more respectable in the eyes of other countries.

              But still now we consider ourselves as an underdog in one area, i.e.the field of sports. Yes, as a country that has the second largest population in the world could not be able to compete with nations that has one fourth of our human resources. In the Olympics 2004 , India’s Rathore bagged a silver medal in shooting and in Olympics 2008, India’s Abinavh Bindra bagged one gold medal in the same.  It arises a question that whether we are going to be proud of that one gold  or a country that is known for its large human resource could not be able to produce  more than one. It is a shame for a developing country like India to see ourselves in this kind of awkward situation.It is very sad for us to see our country resides on 44^th place in the Olympics points table.

            Where happens the mistake? Cricket is the only sport that is dominating us. In India 80% of us have a craze for cricket, we love and live in it and forgetting other sports. Even our national game hockey seems to have less importance and other games are not at all shine in the brightness of cricket. As cricket gains more fans sponsors also never had a look on other games and they tends to go only for cricket.

            Even the youngsters and children are describing  their wish is to become a cricket star. When we analyze that point deeply, its all because of  the fame and popularity that cricket gives. On the players point of view, they are showing their grief towards the government as they are not equally treated well as cricketers. They even added that incentives and offers given to them are comparatively meager  than the cricketers. It arises a question “whether they are playing for nation or money?”. Its very hard to figure out the problem whether the fault is on the government or on the player's part.

        There may be only one solution to overcome this threatening problem. Our government should treat every game as equal and give par importance to all the players. And also players should feel that they are playing for their county’s pride and not for the sake of money. If this happens then there might be no way for a country like America which is one fourth of our human resource can overtake us. And there is also a part for all of us. We should promote our country’s native games to a higher level and make a awareness to all. Sponsors should come forward for the growth of unfamiliar games in our country. If all these things comes to reality then there might be no doubt that our "MOTHER INDIA"  will  ensures a top place not only in Olympics as well as in pride. I think it’s the alarming time for our country to wake and fight for its pride.

“AWAKE INDIA”

"EXAMS CAN NEVER RULE US"

                         Here I just want to tell how I spent last three days.Exams were going on those three days.Exam days are the most unforgettable days in our college life because we usually remember the sad things happened to us more than the days we enjoyed. It was very difficult when we had one exam a day, now we have two per day so our condition becomes very worse.

                         Before exam starts we don't care about anything in the class, lectures, advice, etc... rather we used to enjoy every moment in the college.Even, when they announced the exam date also we don't take that much serious.But,suddenly our whole life style changes the day before the first exam.Day scholars begin to stay in the hostel for group studies.Some, wont took bath and some not even brush as they saving that time to study."We begin to set alarm to get up early.We usually spent more than an hour to search  for the text books which we threw away when last exams got over.And for the first time in our life we call our friends for asking doubts in the subjects".

                         Most of us don't  know the portions and some don't even know which exam is the next.And its very hard for us to cover syllabus over night.So, we will ask our friends to teach us.Those exam days will create a huge demand for the rank-holders as like they are the god to save us. We beg them to teach us. And some get promise from those "brain-boxes". And some make reservation even two days before to ensure that they will teach them that time.

                        Day scholars condition is more worse.No one will be there to help them. When we set our mind to study and open our book we had a strong doubt whether that question is in the syllabus or not. So, we text our friends and mark the syllabus first.Even though, we are fresh at the beginning we feel sleepy at the end of  first page.We will see the clock hits  "11" when we finished 5pages.When we see the pages yet to cover, fear enters into our heart.So, we call our friend to hear whether he had studied. The moment he/she replied  "I didn't open the book at all",we will feel that much relaxed and happy and tap our own shoulders for covering at least those 5pages.

                       30minutes before the exam are the most crucial part and the deciding factor of our result. We will study as if we are going to get the gold-medal. All the staffs will be jaw-open, when they see the back-benchers studying with two books.We don't even consider the bell rang for the exam and we keep on reading. Then we take a last look at our friends and enter into the exam hall like a soldier into the battle-field.

                      Once, we had a glance at the questions there will be no words to describe that awkward situation.All the questions that we left as unimportant will be there.We all think about the guy who set the question- paper and use some dirty words to scold them inside.We spend the first 45minutes in the exam hall by chatting with the juniors sitting side to us, looking at the lady supervisors, dreaming about how we studied last night, etc... Then we look our  friends sitting back,they show a failure sign about the exam that make us to feel comfortable and make a little smile.

                     Once, we got out from the exam hall, we will see many drooping faces but we are very much relieved.How hard the exams may be, We will be perplexed only at the exam hall but once the exams got over we started our usual routine of teasing, not caring of anything, enjoying the life to the core. No one can change those habits from us.However, the Hod's and teachers advised us on seeing our performance in the exams we will never put that in our ears because its our college life and we keep on enjoying every moment of our life until the next exam starts.......
