Hard work wins games, but the combination of hard work and talent leads you to championships, to the recognition that you deserve and fight for, and that is exactly what my story reveals about getting my application in three years of college life.

I was never good in academics till the 10th class and I always used to come last in the list of average students and sometimes a failure too. Time  it’s just not a word, but an exact truth of everyones life, or I would say the only truth. Either it changes you according to itself, or gets changed for you, and in my case, time demanded the first one to change me. And that case reveals a hidden talent of mine, which is ‘hard work’, and which made my journey from getting 60% in the 10th to 90% in the 12th.

And finally, I got admission to the so-called Delhi University for a degree in English (Hons.), which is easy to aspire to but hard to play. The first day was very challenging for being an introverted, under-confident, anti-social, and fat girl. I was silent, alone, regretting my decision to come to Delhi from my hometown, with big bags of stuff and a bigger one for my dreams. Passionate is the only suitable word that goes with my dreams and the only companion I had to survive three months all alone, without a single friend in college. And then I took a decision to take part in debate competitions for my survival and to make my talents the talk of the town. I didnt win the first one obviously, as my competitors were the champions of debating. But that single debate gave me recognition. Seniors, teachers, and in fact the head of the department came to me and complimented my talent for speaking and the way I expressed myself, which gave sense to my words. I was feeling happy because these are my strengths, which were always been untouched. And slowly I grabbed all the chances to make myself recognized by showcasing my management skills, dancing skills, acting, sketching, and academics as well. But being an English literature student, the first thing that came into the minds of people was, you must be a writer. So, after passing all the challenges for two years, I outshined everyone by winning a bigger one in the form of an internal assignment. And then I wrote my first English work, the poem I Am a Girl. Honestly, I was not excited at all and the day came when I had to deliver my poem in front of the H.O.D. and students, who were great writers. After finishing my poem. It didnt take a second for everyone to give a big round of applause for me, and I was like  Seriously, did I make it?. Then my H.O.D. said I always wanted my daughter to be like the girl I talked about in the poem. And that poem is all about me. That was the best compliment Ive ever got. That day, I achieved one more thing, and that was the tag of an all-rounder, and when I heard that, the whole journey from being nothing to being recognized as an all-rounder started flashing in front of my eyes.

All these small moments were always my big pillars of confidence and existence. And then I realized that some talents and identities help you to come colorful in the eyes of society. Dancing, writing, and sketching are not just my talents, but a way to express myself. They symbolize me and make me who I am, and without them, I feel like an incomplete person. And in the end, if I have to summarize my words all, I can say is that I transformed myself into a better version and explored myself through my talents and the belief I have in them.
