<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

These happen once in a while. I don't generally realize that the bad experience carelessly made way for a life-changing event, but when I do, it blows my mind.

I can think of one. Back in 10th grade, I missed a crucial National level Science exam. Got yelled at, and was pretty depressed about it. I sat at home that same day, and cleared away some old newspapers, while I stumbled upon a news bit about a fire in a Hotel that John Lennon had stayed in. I never listened to music back then, and I didn't know who John Lennon was, so I googled him up.

The rest is history. I'm a Rock-inspired guitarist and a Classical-inspired amateur keyboardist now. 

Looking back, everything that happened that day fits in wonderfully. *Missed Exam? Who gives a fuck now?
<bot>: Missed exam, found out about John Lennon from an old crumpled newspaper, dug the Beatles albums, dug Rock and Classical Music, and learned to play the Guitar and Keyboard.
