How To Not Crack PMT [Complete]

Disclaimer

Disclaimer:

This is a work of fiction, even though most of the characters and situations are inspired by my experiences, they have been exaggerated and some plot twists have been added.

I got the idea for this story when people started asking me about how I changed my stream from Science to Arts. I have added some of the problems that even though I didn't come across, many people would have. Like family and peer pressure.

The background of this story is that in India, Arts is a frowned upon stream and almost equivalent to not getting an education. Basically, you're announcing you cannot do anything else and that's why not many people opt for this subject and those who opt are ashamed of it.

I have spent so many days plotting revenge with my fellow Arts friend on the people who say we are capable of nothing. But let's face it, it's difficult when the mass is against you.

Such struggles are highlighted in this novel. Please read, vote and comment. Constructive Criticism is welcome.

Your opinions encourage me to write.

This is being written for CampNaNoWriMo so expect regular updates.

All my love,

April.

Synopsis:

As an Indian student, often your career choices are restricted to being a Doctor or an Engineer, and it is not just the aged old relatives and Aunties that frown upon your career choice but even classmates your age might look down upon you wanting to be something other than the designated 'acceptable' profession, and with all the chanting you might believe them and join the bandwagon.

But as Selena Gomez sings, "The heart wants what it wants!" And this time it is not becoming a doctor for Myra Azeem.

Join her to see how she realizes she doesn't want to crack AIPMT, lovingly called PMT and how she strives on a path to not crack it.

But it won't be easy, on the contrary, it will be really hard and she will be alone on a path she chose.

So will follow her passion of writing, or do what is expected for her?

Features friends, betrayal, pranks, Hitler Chemistry professor, boring AV room sessions and two cute, and adorable boys along with some true friends.

Join the fun.

Feedback/Constructive Criticism and Just Fangirling appreciated.

This is something every student in India will relate to. Indians do have this mindset. :/

I feel spied upon. *looks around cautiously and checks for bugs*An Indian Edward Cullen? *Falls to AprilDanfields' feet and begins worshiping her*My respect for you has increased so much, I'm bursting with respect. Not sure if that made sense though. You know, I generally don't comment a lot. But YOU. YOU are forcing me to. Indian Edward Cullen. *bursts into fits of hysterical laughter*Lol I have my internals tomorrow, it's 1:30 a.m, and I'm sitting and reading your story! Amazing chapter, as usual! Dramione <3 lol I still have my pokemon cards and a beyblade too! Dranzer. Kai was always my fav! Oooh. And Brooklyn from G-force, I think. Zeus is freakin' awesome! I could easily relate to this! Well done! *thumbs-up and a surya namaskara* :-PThe part about being a writer. Those scenes in your mind. The way you NEED to put them together as a part of a plot. JUST YES! YES YES YES. I totally get that!Wow. I was reading with an awed look on my face. It was something I could relate to. The confusion, and the helplessness. It's downright annoying and it drains you totally. I don't have much to say, except it was surprisingly mature. A way of telling people that even teens experience frustration and stress. That everyone NEEDS individuality instead of herd mentality.

That's me basically.! Not in talking to people I don't know personally.. Im want to become a doctor.. And everyone tells me its very difficult.. I feel like if I told someone I write, they would ask me to become a writer and give up with medical .. Hehe.. Its like that with me.. :P..
