#4 My Journey to Australia

    Published  December  10, 2019 17:21:00


    My Australaian life started on 19th February 2019 exacly 9 months and 21 days as of today to puruse my masters in Mechatronics Engineering. The farthest I have travelled from my home was to Abu Dhabi, infact just a 4hour journey. Indeed my life in Australia is like a dream come true for a student from a normal middle class Indian family. Thanks to all the critics and negative influences which drew me to the position where I am now.
    Like a normal B.Tech graduate in India, I started preparing for the GATE soon after my graduation in 2017 even though my dream was to fly to Sweden for a Masters degree. I had spend almost a year for the exam preparation with 100% dedication, but proved failure and I could'nt get a qualifying score in the exam. Then I realised that time matters more than my desires owing to my family circumstances, I deceided to join for M.Tech in Biomedical Instrumentation at a deemed university in TN, which I had never thought of. But like many of decisions in life the plan did'nt worked out, as I withdrew from the admission a day before the commensment of the classes. I havent considered all the tutors( a very large number in fact) which I had met in my life as a "GURU'S". Only few tutors were able to make a mark in my journey, infact I used to analyse and filter out a lot. One among them made a significant NEGATIVE remark about my decision, eventhough he was a rank holder from the same institution where I intended to join. Infact this was the turining point in my life, the meeting whcih I will never forget in my life. Thanking God for giving me the best understanding family, I was able to convince my family without any difficulty. Then the processes started like bang which ended in getting the conformation of enrollment to University of Wollongong.
