752pm-

Dear future Soham,

It's exam week, or it was. My exams which were scheduled for today have now been postponed to the next Monday. This comes in motion due to the heavy rain here in the city I live. The rain has been godly, it's caused massive floods, thankful we're safe. 

Yesterday when the news of this event came, I was woeful above all due to the fact that I had spent prodigious time studying. But then I came to a realisation. This is a blessing for me. My first exam would be Science, all 3 subparts together on one day and in one exam. The subsequent one would be Social Science, all 4 subparts together on one day and yes, one exam. I was prepared for Science and it was all I had been studying. But Social Science and a few smaller side subjects I had little to no arrangement. I realised that I must extensively use this time to gain my education on them and prepare properly for them.

Saying that, I haven't exactly used today to my full extent but I am partially contented with what I have achieved. 

About a year back, I used to wake up at 4, but these days my cycle has reversed, I have been studying till 4. I want to bring back what I did before. I don't know how to do that, Mr Google Boogle says, "Sleep early". I tried yesterday, but I woke up and then read, then painted, watched tv, tried to sleep again and then slept. 

Today I am trying to sleep before the usual time yet again. I will eat dinner now and candidly sleep away. I have set up multiple alarms for tomorrow. Some even have rock songs as their alarm tune. 

I must use this time to get ahead of my friends. I need to be the topper this time. Which means I have to outwit the topper. Not an easy task. But if I stick to aiming to study. I shall happily succeed. That's the problem. I think I need to reduce my breaks. Because once I take one, everything goes downhill from there and before I know it I have wasted precious time that I could have studied and finished those remaining two pages.

The day three days ago was my dearest friend, Nachiket's birthday. I thought I would type down a short note here regarding him. But forgot. I shall do that now. Nachiket is one of the best dudes you could probably ever meet. He has never once shown me attitude. Never. And he doesn't usually. He's kind and funny and helpful. I know from the 6th grade and am in the 10th grade currently. We've been in the same section all of these 4-5 years. The best thing about him is that he changes himself to be what you would like. I have seen him with other people and then with me. Nachi just is the best version of himself with everyone. I am proud of my guy and happy to call him one of my bestest friends.

Today was Sachi's birthday. She resides in my apartment. One of the meanest people in the world. But she's not that bad. Simran bought a cake and called Pihu and I and Sachi down. All of us are in the same apartment and have become closer as offline school has started. I like these guys. They're good fun to be around. Pihu is the dumb one. Simran is the one I take inspiration from. Sachi is moody. But again, these guys are fun to be around. So, we cut Sachi's cake in the playground of our apartment, over the tunnel. Then we went to Sachi's house, she took some forks and then we went to the spot where the Iron Man sits and irons clothes. The place was empty and we sat, ate the cake, clicked some photos and played a few songs. Felt nice to talk to them after so many days.

That's life update.

See you shortly,

Yours truly,

Soham
