Two nightmares .....

March 9, 2:20 AM, The day before Duke results: I could not get any sleep after I woke up due to a brief power cut for 15 minutes..Tried hard to get sleep but could nt manage and finally woke up and started reading "One hundred years of Solitude"..Read till 4:15 and tried to sleep again..But after rolling over for 10 minutes I could not really manage any sleep..So woke up and took bath and got ready by 5 AM to office..My office is just 10 minutes away from room..So started to office and was there by around 5:20 AM. Opened the mail from Duke and as expected it said..Sorry Alchemist "We Dinged You"..Though I am expecting a ding, in a corner of my heart I was expecting a good news..And it is not there..Worked till 6:30 PM and got out..Felt empty for the initial half an hour after knowing the result..But again got the stuff..After all its not my first..Its fifth...

Went to my friends room on saturday and again woke up at 3:30 AM and could not get much sleep..So watched "40 days and 40 nights" till 5:30 AM and slept..Woke up at around 8:30..UNC result is expected on 12th..It is One of the schools that I still have hope..Tepper and Ross did not like me and so did not invite me..Left is kelley, where people went on spring break and so will come to know the details only when they come back..

All in all..Its the tough time of life...I wrote cat 4 times and never felt this much..even when it was my life/death in +2. Thats what life is..Of course..a better challenge as we move makes us better..
