Everything first in life is very memorable. But those memories may not always be pleasant.

The first train journey of my life is proof of that. I went to Chittagong by bus from Dhaka to participate in the admission test at Chittagong University. There were many obstacles on the way to returning home after the exam. Due to the two-day blockade across the country due to political reasons, bus services were stopped. Also, there was no arrangement for staying in Chittagong.

So I decided to return home forcefully. When I reached the station, I was surprised to see the situation. Sitting is far from it, there is no place to stand. People are standing at the gate of every compartment. But what else to do, I started the journey somehow risking my life. But the interesting thing is that didn't have to pay any fares on my first train journey in life.
