AAYAT RAHAMAN
I was all surrounded by the beauty of nature yet unable to find my true self —a journey that spans from the serene landscapes of Bolpur Santiniketan to the bustling streets of Kolkata, and everything in between. A small town girl trying to make sense to her life.
A small town nestled in the heart of West Bengal, where every corner whispers the tales of Tagore and where tranquility dances with the rustle of the trees. That's Bolpur Santiniketan, my hometown, where my roots lie deep in the rich soil of culture and tradition.
But life never fails to surprise us in different ways, isn't it? And mine took a turn when I decided to step out of my comfort zone and venture into the unknown territories of Kolkata for my college education. It was both exhilarating and nerve-wracking—the prospect of leaving behind the familiar and embracing the new.
I found myself amidst the chaos and charm of Kolkata, a city that never sleeps, where every corner tells a story, and every person has something to teach. And in the midst of it all, I found my sanctuary—Ilead, where I embarked on my journey in BSC Media Science.
The transition was more than just a change of scenery; it was a transformation of the self. I learned to navigate the maze of city life, to embrace diversity, and to thrive in the face of challenges. From attending lectures to exploring the vibrant cultural scene of Kolkata, every moment was a lesson, and every experience was a stepping stone towards personal growth.
But perhaps the most valuable lesson I learned was the importance of adaptation. In a world that is constantly evolving, the ability to adapt is not just a skill but a necessity. And as I adapted to my new surroundings, I found myself discovering new facets of my own identity—strengths I never knew I had, passions I never knew existed, and dreams that were waiting to be realized.
So here I am, a student from Bolpur Santiniketan, transformed by the journey to Kolkata and the experiences it has brought me. As I look back on how far I've come, I can't help but feel grateful for every twist and turn, every challenge and triumph, for they have shaped me into the person I am today—a person ready to embrace the adventures that lie ahead, armed with the lessons learned from the journey so far.
And to anyone out there embarking on their own journey of transformation, remember this: embrace the unknown, cherish the moments, and never stop growing, for it is in the journey itself that we truly find ourselves.
Here are few advises from my journey :
Find your tribe, explore your passion, stay curious, face the unknown, make friends, be friends with your professors, meet new people.
