The Level 1 feather in my cap

Finally, the wait’s over. The first hurdle to attain the charter for CFA is leapt. I passed the CFA Level 1 Examination, scoring above 70% in all the sections except ethics and standards which was between 50-70%.

I was travelling the night the results got out, so could not check the results the day they were out. I am kind of person who looks for omens when some significant event is about to happen, so I was just observing things around me. Things were boding well, I felt so when I found that a pretty girl whom I saw on the platform happened to be sitting next to me in the train. It was a moment of triumph inside, I concretely felt that I would definitely make through.

The next day, when I reached office, everyone was as anxious as me to find my result. I wanted a friend of mine, whom I considered a lucky hand to submit my login details on the results page. Few more seconds due to view my result…The page started loading… All my body parameters peaked to heights, heart revving, body trembling and millions of thoughts going on in my mind about what would happen next few seconds.

The page showed that I passed. It was a moment of lull inside with adrenaline just gearing up to rush into my blood veins. The huge rush dampened the whole body. It was such a wonderful feeling, I could not stop crying. The result meant a lot to me. I totally deserve it, Five and a half months of dedication, focus and sacrifice finally churned out into this sweet feeling of happiness

Happiness tastes sweet when you earn it. It’s such a weird thing, the more you yearn for it, the less duration of time it would last.
