Rails and Life: April 2011

http://railsandlife.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

Monday, April 4, 2011. Another part of life begins. Today on 4th April 2011, I have finished my year as a tenther (10th student! Just two days before, I got the ultimate joy of India winning the World Cup! Hats off to Team India! Today was Science. It went fine, as all other subjects. Now I will be in 1! I will be considered a senior :P. I am going to opt for Physics, Chemistry and Maths (PCM). Hence begins the toughest yet fun filled phase of two years in one's life. Wishing life goes on very well.
