People come into our lives with a purpose, either to add something to it or remove something from it, both ways, changing it for the better. Every turning point was possible with the help of someone close to me. Earlier this year I made a decision to put theatre on the side and get back to studying, I wasn’t completely sure about what I wanted to study, but I just saw myself getting back to college.
It had been almost 2 months of searching for the most apt course and I think I was giving up really. This is when the protagonist of this little piece entered – Karno – my cousin who ive grown up with…from house –house games, to sharing tension for the board exams, through under grad, through summers spent with each other and some winters.
I had considered Srishti while searching courses, but there wasn’t anything that I fit into- just some research based courses….so naturally I scratched it from my options until one rainy afternoon. I was chatting with K and he told me about this direct entry system at Srishti and how I could still apply. Frankly, it took me more than 3 days to understand this system…but whatever it is, I was SO happy there was an option of studying where Karno did. Through my undergrad I saw his work and work of his peers too. Had I not discussed it with him, had I not logged on to gtalk that day, things could have been super different.
The process of applying was so much easier because of my other cousin Bikram, an alumni too, who helped refine my thoughts in the SOP, who spent time reading and scratching out emo lines !!

Its been 4 weeks since ive been in Bangalore, Karno made it comfortable, got me in touch with people in college, who’ve made life easier. Familiarity is a funny thing, I don’t completely understand why peoples treatment changes when they know you know someone they know. (very complicated sentence this was!)
So really, im not going to take the credit completely, im here because of a lot of people supporting my decisions, helping me make choices that paved the way here.
Thankyou, everybody. Considering this is my last education (atleast for now), im glad you all were there for me.
Ps: Karno, now are you happy? =D
