I am narrating a story of a girl named Roshne. This story actually reveals the various mistakes which a teenage do which leads them to spoil their career as well as future. It also gives the way which helps them to revive from those incidents. I will try to finish it in 3 parts. At some point you may feel that story is running bit fast but I want to keep it short focusing on the main points which I mean to aim at. Please give your feedback about the same.

 

This is a story of a girl named Roshne from Dhanbad. She completed her schooling from Mount Carmel School, Dhanbad.  She does total justice to her name as she was ray of light and hope for people around her. She could counsel people well with her positivity and so she was always satisfied with the good in her. Although academically she was an average student but still her teachers trusted and pampered her a lot as she was very hard working, dedicated, honest, kind, co-operative and fun to be around. She always take in life as it comes (as she has her small world around her). Her teachers used to tell her that “good and bad doesn’t affect her much, she always manage to smile”. As we know that failure is also pleasant when loved one are around and success is also painful in their absence. The same holds good for Roshne. Her relationships (as daughter, sister and friend) were most important to her. She was always there for her friends and never complained about anything. This was the reason why she was always taken for granted. But she was too immature to understand that too. She was really happy in her own small world.

 

After her schooling she came to Kolkata for further studies. This was one of the saddest part as her family, school and friends were her life, her strength, her support system. She felt like as she was living in her own dreamland and now a storm came and took everything away from her. All of a sudden she is exposed to learn and experience larger perspective of life and that too without her dear ones around her. She just had to move on in the direction where a new life was waiting for her hardly knowing that this will change her forever.

 

She wanted to take up psychology honors but she got to know that there isn’t much scope in that field so she took admission in J. D. Birla college and opted for both CA and CS. She wanted to keep herself too busy so that she does not get time to miss her hometown. She lived in a PG near Minto Park. Now she was getting accustomed to her new life in different city, unknown environment, with new group of friends. Although she gelled up well with everything but it took a lot of changes on her side to do so. Gradually, she became an extrovert girl with friendly nature and started partying often to match up with the current trends of her surrounding. I don’t need to say that it was hampering her career more. Firstly she opted for something in which she wasn’t much interested. And then she did a greater mistake by diverting her focus from her career to socializing just to make up the emptiness which was created due to leaving her hometown. She was travelling on a wrong track as she got diverted from the main reason for which she came to Kolkata. She was not only spoiling her career but also imitating a person which she was not. She never wanted to be two faced person but unintentionally she was becoming one.

 

She was successful in clearing her CS foundation and CPT exams in first attempt but instead of being happy on her achievement, she cried. Her reality was pinging her. So she started taking her studies casually. Although she was happy outside but somewhere inside in her solitude she was lonely, depressed, upset. She mastered the art of smiling and pretending to be happy even when she was crying inside. She got habituated to that pretention and she actually started feeling happy the way her life was taking her. But this could not last long. After her second year, her IPCC and Executive result came out. She just managed to clear 1st group of CS Executive. Her results came like a harsh blow on her. She was even unable to cry and express her grief. The terrible point isn’t when she was crying inside while bearing the pain but its now when she cant even express her agony as it doesn’t suit her present repo in front of her friends.

 

At times we need a bit of shock to bring us back on track. Her negative result was a blessing in disguise. She started concentrating more on her studies. Although she continued to be the way she was developing but still she became bit more responsible and sincere. She wasn’t totally engrossed in her studies but managed to devote reasonable time for studies too, though her priority remained to keep up with her present life. This effort dint go all in vain. In her next attempt she cleared her CS Executive and 1st group of IPCC.

 

Her friends wanted to celebrate her success. They arranged for night out which led Roshne to smoke and take fruit champagne for the first time. She dint wanted to take that but the party was for her so she couldn’t deny to that. She was on the track of losing herself forever but her past goodness saved her. She joined a CA Firm for her articleship and then her life again took a positive turn.
