"COVID Pass to IIIT Crash: My Troublemaker Tale"

 

Mom’s Little Prince, Dad’s Little Disaster

Yo, what’s good? I’m not just Mom’s little prince or Dad’s little princess—I’m the total disaster of the family! 😎 Indian parents have this rule: girls gotta be exam toppers, like it’s written in the stars. Most girls either ace it or come close. Me? I’m out here vibing in the “pass ayithe chaalu” zone, dodging topper life like it’s a boring class. 😜 My mornings? Less idli, more of Dad’s titlu (scoldings)—full course meal, breakfast to dinner!

Here’s the real deal: my dad gave me one epic habit—watching movies. Bored? Movie. Angry? Movie. Life’s a mess? MOVIE. 🎬 I’m the type to binge a Telugu flick over figuring out algebra. Everything was chill till 9th grade, but 10th grade? Total dhamaka moment!

Me and my friend begged my middle-class dad for a home tutor. ₹1000 a month, babu! To him, that was like buying a private jet. 😅 We were dreaming of IIIT, IIT, big stuff. Then, WHAM! COVID crashed the party in 2019-2020 like an uninvited uncle. No 10th exams, just a free pass! 🥳 We made history—passed without touching a pen. Toppers, who?

But wait, the drama wasn’t over. Like every desi kid, I applied for IIIT. Normally, they check 10th marks, but us COVID kids? They slapped us with an entrance exam. I, the ultimate average student, wrote it with full swag… and got zero seats. My friends? They’re chilling in IIIT. 😭 My dad’s expectations were sky-high, like he thought I’d be coding for Google by now. Instead, I’m dodging his daily “IIIT seat raledu, enti nee plan?!” rants.

That’s me—your friendly neighborhood troublemaker, living for movies and surviving Dad’s lectures. Did this make you laugh or hit you in the feels? Drop a comment, babu! Should I spill more of this chaos? 😎
