New Beginnings, Old Challenges: A Student's Tale
Suva pravat mera suva chintak haru. What have you guys been up to? If you ask me what “crazy” stuff I did—like, it's really crazy. I lied to like 100s of people, and yes, you are one of them. I lied. I lied to you guys, saying I would do something crazy so that you would be flabbergasted by the content I post. But hey, I did nothing. Wait, I can’t really say "nothing."
I HAVE. GOT. AN. UPDATE.
It’s not that wild and exciting, but like every other person who comes abroad, I did that. Yes, you guessed it right. I got an iPhone. The good thing is, I got it at a very low price—like around 50% off, which is great. As an international student, all you do is think about how your money can be saved because you never know when you will need it.
It’s been raining here in NYC for like 3 days now, and I found out it’s the same in Nepal. Now I kinda feel like it’s not just me missing Nepal but Nepal missing me too (deshbhakti ko kavita ko asar yk, or maybe just dramatic? I mean, who doesn’t love drama, please). But for real, am I that special? (blushing)
And yes, I have started watching a Korean drama, Queen in Tears. I don’t really watch Korean dramas much, but giving it a shot won’t hurt anyone, right? This part of my life is about doing new things—exploring, giving it a shot, and then learning if I should do it again or not. And the process is fun. You know, we have people with us to share their experiences so we can learn from them, but learning on your own—doing mistakes, regretting, and getting a lesson? Yes, that’s what I am fascinated about. That’s where the fun part is.
It’s 9:28 AM when I am writing this blog, and I was just talking with my friend in Nepal, who’s about to give the upcoming medical entrance exam. I just got to know the government released some notice about the exams that were senseless and baseless, and I’m talking about this because yesterday, my sister and I were having a similar conversation. She told me that she met someone who was studying CA in Nepal, but after some inconveniences occurred, neither the government nor the school looked out for her, and she had to look out for herself. Now, she is staying here in the US. When I said I wrote poems about deshbhakti, I felt that—every word. But growing up, things get different. I am so done with our education system that I had 0 wishes to study back there in Nepal. I know some people are doing great there, and I am so, so proud of them. At the end of the day, it’s no doubt about your skills and hard work, but I don’t want to take any risks as such. I will tell you what I am talking about.
So for the medical entrance, they just published a notice like 9 days prior to the test, okay? Let me tell you just 1 rule they published, which was “passed +2 in 1 attempt.” This very rule seems senseless. Imagine someone whose Nepali is not his strong pursuit, and hence he got an NG, but he is smart as hell in general, and now he won’t be able to give the test? Guys, it’s not his loss here, it’s the government’s. The same person will go abroad to study, and then people are like “dherai vayo yuwa palayan,” yesto para cha sarkar ko ani bahira palayan vayena vane career palayan huncha. I repeat again, some are doing great, and it’s completely their skill and talent, and I respect them with my whole heart. But hey, I have a serious beef with the system we have there in Nepal. After I reached here, I got to know what it is actually like to be in a proper system.
I guess this will be it for today. I have a headache and don’t feel well enough to actually do something crazy, lmao. But hey, it’s me after all.
You guys will get better things, chill.
See ya 😊
so for the photo
