My endless road

A whole new step forward

Sid and all really became close to me by the end of grade 4. Just as before it's shuffling time.. Grade 5 is here! I was so scared that I might lose my new friends. I was scared that I might make new friends. But hello, I'm Rohil remember? I grasp attention even when it doesn't come knocking on my door. Ok ok I know, that was deep. Ugh fifth was pretty amazing. Finally! No girls. Wow you know we boys are like a synonym of wild dogs. C'mon no girls finally. So many new friends. Sid was with me too this time! And the best thing is that we were all finally free. But yet again studies didn't decrease only and only increased.... Fifth was just amazing. We were so high on weed. Haha just kidding. Our class teacher was really kind, Ms Sumija. And ma'am was so motivating. I just wanna say that I dedicate all my happiness, my success to my loved ones. Honestly there is zero contribution of mine. Yes that's right, if I've survived, it's all because of my inspiring teachers and parents. So yeah 5Th grade was completely rad. And then I got into this different type of influence, umm peer pressure maybe? I started doing things wrong, doing things completely opposite. Deep down I knew that wasn't me. The change was so great, unbearable maybe? I had lost my focus towards my actual goal. I had lost the drive for my success. I was the topper of my class. It felt amazing when those idiots in my class came to get my blazer because of the 'scholar badge'. Oh yeah I forgot to mention About our wonderful school had this evaluation policy like 'scholar badge'. Honestly it's a really stupid concept. This doesn't motivate students. This pressurizes students. This makes them undergo mental strain. I personally believe this is not a way to push children forward. This isn't a proper way to encourage children. I'm not trying to point out faults in anyone, but I'm just trying to say please think before implementing your evaluation policies. Maybe because of your mistakes there might be a drastic effect on children. So back to my story, 5th grade was completely different experience. I met many new friends like Hayden.

As usual it's the time for shuffling and I really got used to this thing. But I was so wrong.. Our wonderful school introduced a new concept to "motivate" students. It was called THE ABILITY CLASS. In the wonderful policy, top 30 students of the grade are selected. So I was put in the boys ability class. I met some of my old friends but I lost so many. As we know Sid was one dumb oaf, so he didn't make it to ability class. First day of school seemed weird as hell. I sat in the corner with this kid. That kid really has issues. He was so silent, that made me feel awkward. So I finally turned towards him and told "hi". "Hi I'm Hritik Mehta, from class 5G.", he rapped out his details and I'm just sitting there with a poker face. He might seem like a freak. But honestly he was one of the best in that class.
2 weeks later we had our Physical educations class. I met this another guy. He seemed nice. I came up and greeted him. Yeah he was amazing.
His name was Shivam. Shivam and my mind was so alike. He was as hopeless as me. And then there's Hritik, who had no idea how he ended up in DPS.
Okay fine 6th grade wasn't intolerable. Our teachers kept on being strict. Studies kept on hardening. My focus and concentration kept on going on a holiday. To all my fellow mates reading this, never lose your focus and mind set, maybe one day you might lose yourself.
As I've noted before evaluation policies can have drastic effects. This "Ability Section" culture does make children urge to enter but it provides so much pressure on the children, too much competition can effect students.

Remember Aditya Rathi from 3rd grade? Yeah, he's back... But my focus in studies was completely imbalanced. I just studied how much required. I couldn't take up the pressure anymore.
I learnt Life isn't always kind, you have to be kind to life..
