Prose 21 : A Nostalgic Year
A Nostalgic Year - T ABRAHAM
The feeling of going back in time to a particular period of timeline of our life is something that everyone wishes for. Usually we love to go back to the years which brought in the shades of happiness and peace in our life. The years before 2020 were the years where most of us would like to travel back and look upon. We all know that life is a composition of both ups and downs and the way we move up, we come down to the same position and maintain our neutrality. Here, I am going to describe about the nostalgic year of 2019 or the year just before the pandemic.
This year was something that marked the beginning of some of the major events of my life. This year was something very important to me as I was about to take my first board exam and also I got many things which I have been yearning for years to get.
This was the year when I got my second foreign currency and it belonged to Japan and during the start of the year I witnessed a transformation happening in my surroundings as well. During the previous year my friends and I were separated when we were segregated for classes and during my 10th grade we reunited back as during the process four of us were there in the 'B' section of the 10th grade. It was really a very pleasant time that we all spent together. This was the only time back in school we were together inside the same classroom for one year, with the people whom you can truly share things without any trust issues prevailing.
Then, when I come to the academics part of this year I would say it was comparatively less stressful than the years 2020-22 when I did my Biology-Mathematics group which was against my will and wish. We had many written projects but it was an interesting part of this class. When I come to the teachers who have taught us during this year, they were amazing. The subjects which I dislike the most were 'Mathematics' and 'Physics' and I got really very knowledgeable teachers who catered to the needs of every sphere of students and even the ones who have a total aversion towards these two subjects can score well and not just that, you would understand and learn things rather than just memorising and writing as it is.
The syllabus for all my subjects were the most interesting part in this class. It had a very nature of starting from the scratch and one can learn even if one is not equipped with the basics of the science, mathematics and every other subjects present. So, this year I visited my native for the 3rd time and it was one of the times I cannot forget. It was after a very long break I have visited my relatives at Kanyakumari.
This year creates a nostalgia in my mind as it can be described as a 'perfect year' or a 'fruitful year' or the 'flawless year' which made way for me to learn many new things in my life even though they were of a very rudimentary nature. This year was a time when one thinks upon a time when we were not afraid of the virus and no physical contaminant intervened in human relationships and the following years are the ones which brought in much pains for the whole world and for me everything was drifting on it's own course of action and I did not have any control over my academics, time and the stressful sleepless nights accompanied with the 'Mathematics' and 'Physics' which were an addition to my burden of the following two years.
If only this year of 2019 was the only year where I was able to spend time in my hobbies the following years were the downward movement in the life's rollercoaster which has fully come down and once again starting to rise to it's positive side from the year 2023 but once again from the year 2024 it is tending towards the hardships. Such a year would never come back and it is a memory to cherish forever.
