Looking back to the time when i was about 10 years old, makes me feel i have come a long way in my life.
00:19
My parents were a heterosexual couple who were mostly friendly with me.
00:31
There were moments when little me felt being scolded without a reason.
00:40
But now i look back, i do find certain reasons behind those scoldings.
00:48
I had no siblings but i had a lot of peers.
00:54
I used to like making friends.
00:59
They were an integral part of my life.
01:02
We used to play cricket, discuss matters and films used to me anxious about exams together.
01:14
It was a time with less complications and more simplistic enjoyment.
01:21
My school was geographically situated quite close to my house.
01:31
I used to cycle to school.
01:36
It was very much into discipline and though i was never punished, yet i always stayed in fear of getting a punishment.
01:46
As i was never very disciplined in terms of dressing and punctuality, the teachers were a mix of assertive, humble ones and aggressive, punitive ones.
02:05
I used to definitely like the assertive ones who ended up liking those which those teachers used to teach.
02:16
Similarly, i got a weak on those subjects that were taught by my punitive ones.
02:30
My parents were both working hard to run our home and did not had much time to help me with my homework or schoolwork.
02:43
They only interacted with the school mainly during parent -teacher meetings and my homework was mainly guided by my home teachers.
02:56
They were pretty good and helpful and one of the main reasons behind my later success...
