Today I found a treasure trove!
I found my notebooks from Standard 11th, 12th and a couple of years of Engineering, few files from Engineering submissions, and my Answer papers from standard 9 and 10!
Also found a couple of text books from standard 3rd (!) and standard 7th!
Those things, for me, are less of nostalgia and more of motivation. I was so organised and well-planned even at young age; my academic stuff (notebooks, exam answer sheets, workbooks etc) were so meticulously done that it made me feel proud of my younger self! It also motivated me to continue on that path. I will post samples of those artefacts soon, just for fun.
I also found this sketch I had tried in 2008 when I was in the UK. Won’t name who I was attempting. Hope someone might guess it correctly!
P.S.: I also found a couple on notebooks of my grandfather where he used to write things for my learning. It was an amazing feeling to walk down the memory lane and re-live those moments in my childhood and appreciate the kind of people I had in my life in my formative years! Again, nostalgia and motivation mixed into one…will try my best to live up to the expectations my grandfather had from me when I was 10-12 years old.
