A Madman's Romance

Being five having no clue of the world yet I was mesmerised when I saw the weapon in my old man's arms.

He held it close to keep me away, yet now his daughter only dreams of one way.

The Olive Greens has this magic which turns boys into men and men into poets.

I wonder what It shall turn me into...

Yet for now it has turned me into a madman romanticizing its horrors and writing poems as if a lover confessing his love for the croods.

I even get jealous when I find tons of other lovers of hers as mad as me over her,

It has never been just a profession for me - Never about the pay Never about the benefits

I hope this romance does not bring me despair as I've loved you so much Very soon I'll be there...

I am confused man, my rank was in the 400 category in the merit list and yet there was no call letter for INA as well...

i had a query regarding hostel, how are the hostels for girls, how many students live in one, how bad is it, how is the convenience??

PEOPLE ONLY FROM SRM SIKKIM PLS REPLY GENUINELY

SO, i had a query. Ye pvt btech colleges/unis apna joining kab rakhte hai for new admissions? and possible hai kya nda ki tayari and also maintenance of avg cgpa during college? kisi ka koi known hai kya yaa phir jisne khud crack kiya ho??

ik i should not be bitter abt this, and congo to the ones who've earned their ssb BUT my male friends who were scoring 235-240-260 all of them are in for ssb, while i was scoring a 310 something my roll number is obv not on the list. Its very childish of me to think so and ik i should work harder to get a score probably more than 450. But its so difficult to accept this when the guys next to me barely studied and still got in.

well not giving up anyways still have attempts left...

I was done with 12th grade this year. I had also given NDA 1'26. And as a back up i had kept btech, it was not my primary aim in school so i defo scored poorly in jee, and now running after pvt colleges and CUET is still left. Is cuet better option for btech as i dont want to spend shit ton of 20-25 lakh on a btech college even when i know that i am anyways not that passionate abt engineering. My father does not mind Pvt colleges, but after idk what youtube research he has done he is saying Govt. based cuet colleges are better bcs of fee structure and also hoping i make in for nda in about the initial 2 years of college as i will remain eligible. And Thapar is being seen as a good college as a plan C.

Your personal experience related opinion will be appreciated!

This is mine:

I anyways come from a defence backgroud, all of my maternal grandparents were faujis some NCOs, JCOs, NAIK, SUB MAJ. And yes my dad also being an officer. But it was not majorly this fauji backgroud which had put a thought in me but it was the the year 2011. My father being an infantry man has had quite a good combat related tenures. And during 2011-2017 my father was rotating around kashmir (this is not one tenure but 2-3 tenures in Kashmir alone as well as his service in The Rashtriya Rifles). So specially during his RR tenure, we used to visit him during my winter vacations, and one fine day my father got a call and he rushed to wear his operation gear yk the helmet, the walky talky and yk your mainstream RR outfit for operations along with an AK. It was my first time seeing my father like THIS. i was used to seeing him in unform but this was different than the normal camouflage. This is when it hit me, (mind u i was 5-6 idk) that my father is trained to k#ll and stuff. The next day i met a lady officer attached in RR she was the doctor and it inspired me even more. And since, 1-2nd grade i had fauj in mind

i'd love to read y'alls stories too ^-^
