Survived.. Rather Saved

The results of my first semester exams are out and I(?) have somehow managed to pass in all the subjects and got first class. It's the output of the input given by rather not given by me during first semester after being processed by our honorable teachers. Being honest, I didn't perform up to the mark as I had not worked hard. I think the teachers were generous and kind to pass me. There was a mix of emotions; guilt and relief, when I received the mark sheet. When I got results of the mid term exams, I decided to work hard for the final exam but things didn't go as well as I had expected. Major time was consumed by project work. I read more in the vacations after the exams than before the exams.
When lectures commenced in the new year, teachers would discuss question papers and some mistakes made by students. Every time, my case was discussed and my case was discussed every time but I was kept anonymous. I also would join my friends in laughing when teachers would discuss some funny mistakes, despite knowing they were made by me. Statistically, the standard deviation of my marks is 6.56 which looks good but if you look at my marks, you'll come to know I didn't do justice to all the subjects. I was biased towards some of the subjects.It has always been like that since childhood. Except TY when I loved all the subjects. I believe all the students in DIMSR have almost same aptitude. The difference between the marks of two students is just the difference between hard work done by them. It's time to introspect and retrospect. It's time to pull up my socks. For that I have to wear shoes rather than sandals(Read:floaters) everyday . So I'll pull up socks tomorrow morning. Oh god, what I am writing!
P.S. Historically it has been seen that those who accompany me, do well academically. There were Siddhesh and Vishwajeet till HSC. There was Indrajeet in TY. Now, there is Siddhesh who scored much higher than me and secured 7th rank. Any girl wanna get good marks?
