The One With The Perfect Girl

Our parents all have that one person to compare you with. I too had that perfect neighbourhood girl who knew all the household work, perfect in studies, silent, obedient. compared to that kid you will of course be a spoiled brat. She lived close to my house. We had just shifted there. I didn't know her name but for sure she was becoming the reason of my loss of peace. Whenever I pass the way near her house. I was so disappointed because she is always working. Either she will be washing clothes or washing dishes, cleaning the surroundings around the house.

Me in 11th grade (2011)
I only knew her name through my Mom's scolding. When through we were neighbors we didn't know each other or talked till three to four year until our tenth class result were to publish. Anyway even if she didn't have more A+ than me, she had a good percentage of mark. I got into high school and I opted computer science due to my fear of cutting cockroach. She got admission in my school in bio-science department. Was can be the worst thing. I hated catching cockroaches and she used to catch these for herself and sometimes for her classmates. So my mom favorite child was her because she wanted a kid like her. Calm and quiet, obedient and does all household chores in this younger age. 
But did you all didn't wonder why she was doing all that work at home. Her mother was hospital staff so she always had to go for work day and night. Since her mom wasn't at home all time my friend had to work at home. Not because she was willing but she had too.. It's kinda sad. 

So one day I decided to give a shock treatment to my dear parents. My mom had to go somewhere and my papa only had half day job. My mom had left home beautiful by 9 and won't be coming until afternoon. So I just started my playlist and to do work which where pending due to my moms busy schedule. The works I had to do was washing a ton of clothes, dry, fold them, wash all the dishes,  clean the house and surrounding, cook curry/side dish for lunch which I do before my papa comes. 

My First Pasta
The moment mom left the house I sorted all the clothes in different sections Sarees,  new clothes, old clothes, fathers, mothers, blankets and bed sheets etc..and put them in Washing machine which isn't automatic at all.  So the time I waited to take these clothes to get washed. I started cleaning up the house and when that finished I cleaned up the dishes. All these work was done except cooking. I went to have a great bath after doing all this work altogether at same day and for very first time..I had to cook the perfect curry even if I'm gonna make it for first time. Of course I sure made great dishes. But I bet I have improved a lot from then. My innocent parents aren't very curious like me. They do like same food, same job, same place. Even in 15 to 16 years of my life. We haven't made a chicken soup on any day. So I'm the one who is so curious about each and every thing. 

Anyway, after that day I did get scolded but not for knowing any job but for not doing it even when I do know the job. On days like that I get know me more. Lonely time is not that much of bad time. Now I know cooking, laundry, cleaning almost perfectly. Parents will always remain parents nor would we change.

Math Loves Me..

As I already told you I left Mathematics and Malayalam for good. But did it leave me...?

Anyway there came a day of decision what stream should I take for higher studies. Amma and Achan told me to study Commerce. As for me Commerce is full of Math. I disapproved. So they told put a condition if you aren't gonna take Commerce you won't be allowed to go to school. I wasn't a bit afraid because I know my parents than they know me. So at that same moment I told them I will only go to school if they allow me to take Science or Humanities. My parents were against Science because it's hard and they knew I won't survive and they hated humanities and as I told you I knew my parents very well so I knew what decision will they take.

To the Trap set by Math.
Due to misunderstanding and my arrogance. I ended up in Science stream. I had no idea what I have done to myself. I came to know the more I hated and wanted to go away from math.  I fell in to the pit of Math. Everything rotates around Math. As time went away I realised is I shouldn't be arrogant anymore and listen to elders..  
The dear darling of Teachers..
My classroom teacher could have been any subject teacher. But she was the Math teacher. Due to my love for Math, I couldn't understand a single thing.  So I  got very poor marks in my classroom tests.  
Do you know what's the most embarrassing moment..??  
I got the least mark in midterm exam and the student next to me was top in my class. Anyway this made me a center of attraction. My Math teacher, Chemistry teacher, Physics teacher and computer teacher..  Everyone liked me that they only constantly ask me questions..  I want monitored by 2-3 students with good marks for these subjects. I did my every homework daily but just stayed constant as I was. Every teacher wanted me to get good grades at least passing marks. I don't like the changes. So I didn't have any improvement..  And there came 11th grade exam as well as special classes for week students. Whoever attend it or not I was a very must student who had to attend it. Every teacher in staff room even the non-teaching staff knew me. I was that much popular against them. Ooh..

Here comes a Miracle.. 
As told before I was a must student who had to attend special classes without absence. One day I was attending the physics class. Teacher had told us to learn 3 big theory for next day. Which where very important and must question for exam. She told to write every theories for 3-5 times. Anyway I just copied it and submitted it for the name sake. She took a test paper on it the very next day and miraculously I was the top scorer without any errors.. My teacher thought I cheated. Because the topper of the special classes students had errors..  So she told me to write again.  Which I  did but they still had doubt on me. So my teacher asked me how did I study the theories. I asked is there any errors that she is telling me to repeat. I didn't even know I was writing correct answer for the very first time. But I didn't even realize. Anyway I became the leader and the first student to teach, my trick to others. Then I will teach them tomorrow but I warned my teacher that she won't be liking the trick I used to remember the theory..

The next day all were very much anxious for the class because a fool of the year taking a class that would be rare.  Anyway I started taking classes in friendly manner..  They thought I won't be asking any questions because I  myself didn't know a thing.. But suddenly I started making jokes on tan, cos for cancelling them in theories. My teacher's face just got red.  She was a rank holder in college.  Who won't tolerate me making jokes on physics. Anyways I taught my friends with all possible jokes and abilities. After that teacher told them to write and learn again 2-5 times because she wasn't sure about my class. Again a test was conducted for a name sake. Few kid didn't repeat the same mistake which was unusual.  Ma'am understood that my class did something..  So they called my parents to meet. For first time teacher told them that she has talent but don't use it at all. So they tried to convince me to get good grades for semester exam and I did. Below average to good grades and my journey continued..
