Hello,
I came home, once the exams were over. Now, I am planning to get coaching for public administration again. Looking for some good institutes in that subject.
I gave the Mains exam and understood how it really feels to give an exam conducted by unpredictable service commission (other name of UPSC given to it by us aspirants). No one expected the GS papers to have 25 questions each with 10 marks. First, there were so many questions to answer and 3 hours is hardly enough to answer all of them. Second, even if one had the practice of writing answers so fast, he will not have any time to recollect, think & frame the answers. But one consolation is, it's same for everybody. Let's see how many marks we get. I do not have much hopes for this year Mains. I will start my Mains preparation in the next week. At any cost, I must clear CSE next year and get into some service.
Football - last week and the week before that, I didn't follow football because of exams. Now, I've come home, but we don't have any football channels subscribed and we don't have internet. But I just saw the news that our match against Osasuna ended in draw. We were 2 goals down within the first half, then Ramos was shown red card. Ancelotti said that out team showed spirit to draw the match from there. Meanwhile, Barca won the home match against Villarreal, extending their lead over Real to 5 points. Arsenal was defeated badly at Ethihad Stadium. World cup draw was made. Champions League draw was also made. We play Schalke, a relatively easy team, but the tough matches this time are Arsenal vs. Bayern & City vs. Barca. Then Ballon d'Or saga - Ronaldo or Messi or Ribery. So much happening in the world of football, well, European Football to be more precise and after following it so close for nearly one and a half year, I miss it. I guess, I will not be able to watch football matches as much as I used to watch till now.
Then, I am not reading any book for now. But, I am close to finishing the book India after Gandhi. And regarding civils, I think I know where my preparation went wrong. I'll speak with other students, know their approach to the exam and learn from them. Till then, Adios...
