12th Std :) :)

My Final Year of School Life !!!!
Wow, Entering 12th Std is awesome. My whole gang, v r big & Strong & really Close now :) We call ourselves Gangsters & most of us are Captains & also BasketBall players :) so, though we are given a lot of work we are all mostly together & its really Mass Fun :)
The special classes begin & we enter the classes after our practice sessions. OMG, Mathematics, my most favorite subject, but still I really feel sleepy by the way it is taken, Sorry maam, I'm not blaming u, but ur really making me feel very sleepy, so here we go, my tall friend in front of me, my fat friend by my left side, & here I am near the window side, cozy enough & dozing off... Wow a Gr8 sleep!!!
Next follows the Language classes. For those of us in the Tamil class, its always been the Best Snack time. Tamil book in front, snack box on the inner side, & in the very 1st bench. Awesome taste, the tamil classes were ofcourse good, but the Snacking parts have always been the Best part of the Tamil classes ;)
Thanks to our Hindi teacher who once caught us Red-handed, but did not complain to our Tamil Miss. Thank u so much maam :)
Events in the 12th Std!!!
Investiture:
1st Memorable event was our Investiture, we had to take oaths for our Captainships. 2 weeks of practice & the trip to the tailor shop for our Uniforms. So beautifully spent with some of the Best people i've ever met in life :) Then finally, the day of the event!!! The slow walking, the pledges we took, the Badges pinned by our principal on our Uniform, & the Beginning of a new phase, Being a 'House Games Captain'. A new Adventure, Full of Excitement, Anxiety, Responsibility, Overall a new phase, I really had no idea, how big a event all this was back then. But to think of all that now, every second seems Big, an Opportunity, Moments of Gratitude :) Its lovely. The Investiture went really well, & now we are all Excited how this year is going to be!!!
Annual Sports Meet:
All 4 houses preparing with full Vigor. Most of the time in the Field with the juniors for the Selections & practicing the Class Event, March Past, all after the BasketBall Practice Sessions. Eating Glucose with juniors, Juniors Showering their love when we are Thirsty & in need of water, (Lovely Juniors) so grateful for such lovely people, (thirudiyavudhu engaluku thanni kudutheenga ;)) Thank u lovely dolls :) Getting Scoldings from Sr. Josie, was one of the Best parts of CaptainShip. Whenever , wherever she sees a Captain she never forgets to scold us, "Proud Peacocks-Her favorite word" , God Bless her Sincerity, Nevertheless she is a Wonderful person when spoken in private. Finally the Day of Sports :D Drawing the Tracks with that Kola Maavu, Doing Tent Decoration with House Color Balloons & finally the Event. March Past, Saluting & Holding that torch & running on the Track, Awesome Feel, so cool!!! And my favorite Event - "The 100m Hurdles", just loved every Second of the practice sessions as well as the finals :) All the Athletic Events, Class Game, Every bit of the Shouting & cheering & encouragement I've given & that was given to me, I'm thankful & in Love with every minute of it :) Thank u God for all of it :) Overall the Sports Day Event was a Grand Success.
Sometimes I've been a good Captain , Sometimes an angry one, I'm really Sorry for the times I've been Harsh kiddos, I really never meant to but I was so Stressed to be Calm or I didn't really have the Experience & Calmness at that time to nurture you kids. So eventually Sometimes I was Harsh. Finally, The Sports Event Went well. The Scorings weren't that Bad. We were all in Close Quarters, & it was a Good Game for all of us.
Dramatics:
Next chance to Bunk the Classes!! Junior Dramatics & Senior Dramatics. In the Junior Section, We had done "King Lear", it was one of the Best way my House Dramatics Captain had portrayed the play. Adding Sense of Humour to "King Lear", Thanks so much to her Extraordinary Brains, the play had come out so well. Nevertheless, Every one of them Enjoyed it, & we had secured the 1st place. In the Senior Section, it was "Sherlock Holmes" , it didn't turn out really gr8, but it was quite an Experience for all of us . I loved that too.
Zonals:
This year we were again Winners of the Tournament & it was really cool beating PSBB in the Finals. Then the rest of the Tournaments this year were also awesome , Especially the Back to back playing in "Montfort State Level Tournament", how we secured the 3rd place by the last minute Basket & Free throws, & our Improvisations in the "Vidhyodhaya Tournament" , & Our Final match without practice in the "Chettinad Vidhyashram" Tournament & we got Runner-Up. All of it, is like a Dream to think of now!!!
Teacher's Day Pre-Preparation:
The Game conducted for the teachers & the Toasts we prepared as a Gang for all of them , the fun we had, the love we shared. Everything was so good. How we got toasters of our own, Cut the Vegetables in the School Kindergarten, Backyard, & the Finger cuts during the Vegetable cutting, the Kid like treatment between friends, Love Love Love. That's all I've ever felt in our School. Then the Bingo Game Conducted as well as the Outdoor Ball Game for teachers & Workers & Finalising the Winners. Every minute, Excellent.
The Dance preparation for the Teachers Day in sappa's House & aunty's Chakara Pongal, Yummy !!!
Teacher's Day:
Finally on Teacher's Day, our Gang's performance was such a Mass Hit . The Flooring part earned such gr8 applauds & the Presentation also was a good hit. Overall the whole day was so much Fun :D
Children's Day:
This was yet another important day in which all of u wore Half-Saree. So pretty!!! Last Children's Day & the Performance our teachers & princi gave was awesome.
The Birthday Parties:
Our Gang's Spl Idea!! Every month Birthday Celebration. From July to February!! Each month the Cakes we cut in our school field, the Fresh Bakes Party on November, Spencers on December & Gangotri for the Jan & Feb, & how everybody was banned from going to Fresh Bakes after we got caught as Anonymous ;) The most memorable Birthday Celebration in Central Station after our Excursion. Such Memorable Moments :) :D Loved them all ;)
Excursion:
The Tour to Kerela , the Boating in Cochin, the fight for Room members, the early morning Reception Calls, the awesome meals, & the most awaited Bonfire, also the Sleepy bus journeys Everything was really fun , especially with u guys around :) 
Farewell :
The Farewell Party!!! All of us in Sarees !!! It was really difficult walking with all that heels & Saree for the 1st time in my Life!!! The Awesome Performances by our Juniors! Simply Mind Blowing!!! The Ramp Walks, The Games Conducted. Every minute was fun :D
The Board Exams :
The Board Exams, Something we've been preparing for , for a very long time! Though we started seriously only after the CV tournament. The Boards, it went well & we all secured good marks , now each of us doing our Interested Streams in our own ways in different Institutions! Every thing is sometimes like a dream!!!
Somethings in life we think is permanent & keep too many Expectations & dreams & they all get broken right in front of our eyes, changing to things we've never been ready for or could never take in, finally to end up only in a much better way than even what we had planned. 
I thought my school was my life, I loved every thing about it, As long as I had it with me, it was so close to me & I never realized how important & how much I loved it, until I moved out of it. But then I realized  , Nothing is permanent in life, & there is a greater power in the Universe which is beyond the Power of u & me, which has certain things already Reserved for us. That Power knows what we Deserve much more than we ourselves know. That Power is within each one of us. Call it God, Call it Subconscious mind, Call it the Power of the Now. What ever it is, Sometimes its just Beautiful to feel the Life just around us than to dwell in the Past or Future. For in the Now, there are many things that can be done.
Thank u So much God for every moment of my life so far, my happy moments have been gr8 memories , my tough moments have been my gr8test lessons, & my Present life is being a total Surprise, cause every moment I'm getting a better idea about how my future is going to be carved.

11th Std!!!

To think of the school days is such a great pleasure to any one for that matter! How much ever fights , Enjoyments we've had, every moment of it looks really beautiful!!

To me, till my 10th it was pretty awesum :) But my 11th & 12th Std, without which my School life would have never become Complete! This blog is just a small journey of my 11th Std.

11th Std,
I entered 11th with so much doubts! My BasketBall team was becoming a Bigger team, & there were so many new entries from all schools, & our class strength went from 45 to 80. 1st & foremost I was really afraid whether I would make it to the Main 5 in our BasketBall team. Cause the team had Expanded & there was quite a Competition between us in the beginning. But somehow I'm glad I was always in the Main 5. But after sometime it didn't quite matter due to the intimacy that grew amongst us.

This year we had so many tournaments that we rarely went to class. I enjoyed the moments we used to go really late , just 5 minutes before the 1st period got over & we just escaped most of our Chemistry tests :) The way the other girls used to Envy us was fun & reeeally made us feel Special :D Sometimes we even got caught by our Principal & paaa how she used to scold us! Sr.Josie, Thank u so much for all ur Blessings! Trust me I enjoyed every moment of ur Seriousness ;) And Teachers , Thank u for all ur Support that made us continue the Game we loved so much even in our 12th :)

This year is even special to me for we won the Zonals for the 1st time & every tournament we went is quite a memory ! The Zonals was like really awesum, but 1 Tournament that I could never forget, "Chettinad Vidhyashram" , What a lot of Efforts we put in & how we became Runners just by a very small difference in points & the match was really a memorable one! And the Sacred Hearts Match! One of the Worst matches we've ever played !!! The event somehow Strengthened our team as much as it split it. And the State team Selections! That was a good Experience for me though I didn't make it!

Then finally, the Culturals :D Ha ha, the practice sessions with our Seniors , the Selections for the Culturals, & how Excited we were when our Gang was Selected :) :D The Costume Selection & finally the Performance in Sacred Hearts :D Mass Fun :)

Wow 11th was Fun :)

Life :)

That moment when u have nothing in ur mind, no plans, no dialogs & ur loved ones speak & u reply instantly with complete realization & just live the moment!!! The life, independence u feel on ur inner side is a real Bliss :)

Beauty!

Spending Time with people who Accept u just the way u r & not try to Change u is Such a Pleasure :)

Ht of Craziness!!!

Had a gr8 day with my Dad, Went to a Sweet Shop, had my Favorite Jeera Sweets, Chola Poori & bought Channa Masala for my Mom back home, & Kalakhand for myself. On our way back home, a decorated cow came towards us!! Remembering it was "Mattu Pongal" Wished the cow "Happy Mattu Pongal" , yeah It was Fun :D Guess the cow wanted to wish me back! Came Moo towards me, One Jump on the nearby platform & Escape! Its ok baby, I understand ur wishes , Thank u so much, no way I'm getting hit by u ;)
The cow was such a beauty. Usually all cows don't mutify, but I guess this one had just escaped from its owner , & I had interrupted. Goodness I Escaped! But still the way it came to hit me, it was very cute! Anyways, "Happy Mattu Pongal to All :)"

A Game For Friends!!!

3 & a 1/2 years since I played my Favourite Game with my Favourite , Bestest of Friends - My School Gang. Just thinking back of the years we spent together.

When we were together I've never once had even time to sit & think what would be the next moment! It was like Heaven. The Happiness, the fights, the Life we had together. For 14 years in that Beautiful, Heavenly, Second Home our school, St.Ursula's, & 6 years in that Court, our BasketBall court, the matches we played, the Tournaments we played  together, the scoldings we got from both our Coaches, the Fights we had for Chest Nos., the Conversations we used to have before & after our Matches. I miss them like Hell. At that time maybe we've never had the time to thank each other, but now we're all apart, in different places, having our own separate lives. Maybe we'll never get back together like the way we used to be. But this moment, I take the privilege to Thank each one of u guys who made my life a Heaven in St.Ursula's, without u guys I would never be the person I am right now. Thank u so much :)

Some Beautiful Times Shared with my Friends,
There's so much to begin with. The very reason I started playing BasketBall is beacuse of D.Kerthika & Ragavi, u guys brought me to the Game. In 7th Std, I was let into that Court & with all that new shorts, shoes & Dribbling - the very 1st lesson, Learning to Dribble up & down the court was fun. Within a week's time there was this Selection for the Sub junior level for Inter - school Zonal for the school team, & we had to do this layup stepping for the selections, & our seniors held the selections. I was really afraid whether I would be selected for the team, alas, Shaziya, Sasi & I were all selected & the 1st tournament in St.Vincent's , with all those yummy Bun Butter & Jam from Mrs. Peters, & the shoutings to play properly from Vino Sir the 1st Match was awesome. We lost, but still the Seniors had Won & that was an Amazing Team which we all Admired, I was Happy & Excited about this new Beginning.

8th Std,
There were some Tournaments we went for at this time, but I don't really remember much except for the PSBB tournament. It was such a failure, & I still Remember the Scoldings I got from Vino Sir, to improve my Stamina, which I'm working on until today. I also remember how Sr. Josie used to torture us to attend our Mid-term exams after our matches. Lovely Times though :)

9th Std,
We are quite an Improving team now. We are coming up really well. Our Chemistry as well as our Friendship is growing really well. I'm Enjoying a lot with u guys. Especially the silly fights between shaziya, me & Yenchun , I never compromise & wantedly fight. Its Fun :D

10th Std,
Studies trying to take an Important role, but our School Massu. Let them continue the Games. They will study more well :) I love our School & our Masters for such a Supporting Attitude :) I remember how we lost the match against PSBB just by 1 point, this was the time we had Anand Sir also for coaching us. That mass Stretches, & Increased Running & Saturday 3 O'clock Coaching , wow it improved us a lot.

11th Std,
We are a Bigger team now! 9 of us in the 11th, there's a split between us & the juniors Anu, Jos , Swetha due to Anand Sir, I hated him for that though, cause we were all so close, & dis brought a little split in the attitudes of the team. But then , this year was the year we attended Maximum Tournaments, only next to 12th. And this year we were one among the Top teams in Chennai District. We won the Zonals. We won Runner-up in CV tournament. All this was Amazing. I loved every Moment of it.

12th Std,
Last year for all of us Together!!! I'd love to write a separate blog about our 12th Std alone. So I'm not including it here.

This Blog is Dedicated to D.Kerthika, Raghavi, Yenchun, Mandy, Avo, Yoga, Deeps, Lekha, Anu, Jos, Swetha, above all Vino Sir & Anand Sir & Sr. Josie. This Blog is a very small part of our 6 year Journey. No words could explain those times we've had together. Thanks to each one of u for every minute we've spent together, for the Goods & Bads we've had together. Without u guys , I wonder if I would have grown even to this extent on my Inner side. Love u all :)

Have a Happy Journey Sis :)

Dear Priya,
                  First of all, Have a Happy Journey, This is gonna be a new phase in ur Life, & I just wish it brings u all the Happiness in the Whole World. I wish u & Bharath Mama  "A Very Happy & Prosperous Life Ahead :) "

Now this is gonna be a Transition for me too. Maybe I sometimes act like I'm a philosopher, but somewhere deep inside I"m still a Kid who is always wanting to grow & learning to control my Emotions :) ;) Though I was firm faced & trying to smile when u left, u just dunno how my Expression is at this moment. Yes I'm crying like a Kid. We've spent years together & u've been one of my Standing supports always. U've been there by my side at my failures, though u always say the opposite of what I Expect, U've tried to control me saying, "Overa Adada", when I just have Boosted my Confidence, U've Discouraged me many times when I just feel up & U've Encouraged me many more times during the times of my Failures.

U've always been there by my side to keep on & on Speaking more than Listening, though Recently its being a little Reverse ;) :P Just Remembering all those sweet moments we've shared ever since we were Kids!

Kindergarten,
I was a kid, & u were in ur 4th or 5th, How u used to irritate me u Bloody Idiot, What a Lovely kid I was, & u used to make me Run behind u like u were a Big Fairy Angel, & I used to go behind u Innocently, "Priya akka, Priya akka", I still Remember those times, u donkey , Crazy Donkey, but Remember, How I used to keep Asking Dad when I was in Balacca , "I want to go to the School where Priya akka goes!" & then When they joined me there, How I used to be Singing, "Nan Schoolukku Po mattan", & I had to compelled to go & sit in that class, with all those bars so we would not run out. Curse them man.

UKG,
Remember our Watch fight, I still Remember how I made u cry, there no more "Priya akkas" , now I'm a Don 2 :D Then what about the times in which I took 2 weeks leave to school & u had to get the notes from Mrs.Barbarra who teased u so much! HAHAHA , I remember how u used to complain wen u cum bak home. That was Funny, I was happily lying on the bed & laughing :D

1st Std,
Idlis Everyday!!! eeeeeeeeeee, how mom used to torture us giving us Idlis everyday & how Variety Rice was really Exciting to us when we got it after a long span of Idlis.

3rd Std,
Remember the time I got admitted in Hospital & u had Fried Rice in our canteen without me & how I had fried rice leaving u when I came back! Wow, Yummy Taste, no other canteen aunties came with that tasty kaimanam after that.

4th Std,
I had a gr8 time when I sat with u & ur friends for sumtime. Thanks for dose times. But den I found my own set of people to mingle with.

6th Std,
U were in 12th, u were a "Social Service Captain ", OMG what a lot of Fans! When dey used to call me "Jayanthy thangachi, Jayanthy thangachi" , I used to get irritated. Not because I was jealous of u, I sure admired u for all ur Talents , Especially the Role u played in Dramatics , it was awesome :) Its just I like to be just seen for who I am as a person & a human being, Rather than being a Somebody's something or being called by some position. I wasn't Born with all that, neither am I gonna die with all that. K K, that's enough of Philosophy!! yeah, after 6th, no more u in school, I had to face the rest of the 6 years by myself. This is the time I got a new Gang, which lasted till my 12th & Still & hope it just Lasts forever. Gangsters, Lovely Idiots.

7th Std,
U grow up, go to college, I grow up, & start sharing Everything that ever happens in school with u like u are my mirror image. And u patiently listen, most times giving boring advices, which I follow Blindly cause I Love u!!! This is the time, I entered BasketBall, just 1 week for the Zonalds, & being selected for the school team in the Sub junior category! Wow I'm Excited :)

8th Std,
Things are getting Busy!! Studies & Games, Both going well. U having ur own College Life, ur Friends & Fun. We speak , but not a lot. Getting Busy in our own ways.

9th Std,
I try to speak to u , & ur like, "Common I have my own life, I don't have to keep listening to u all the time!" At the time it hurted me a lot. This is when i distanced from u , U were in ur teens & probably u need more Privacy. I get it now. But den our Relationship status had changed.

10th Std,
I was too Busy , I did not even have the time to speak to u. I was indeed very Stressed & Arrogant! Everybody who see me keeps advicing, Encouraging & Expecting. I've never been so Stressed in my Life before. Parents, Relatives, Vino Sir, Anand Sir, Sr. Josie, The Best Student Award, Centum Expectation in Maths, OMG This was like Hell, I've never doubted myself so much! I've never been so thorough & never have been this hughhhhhh, just waiting for my Boards 2 get over! PAAAAAAAA, to secure that 465/500 missing the school rank by 10 marks & 99% in maths, I still have no idea where I missed the 1 mark , & how Mrs. Devi was sad I missed the centum & how much it hurted me! Sometimes it still hurts me. But I've just learnt to love myself. I tried what I could. Maybe that was what was meant for me. The trip to Mumbai was Relaxing after the Boards :) Though u weren't able to accompany.

11th Std,
Wonder what's wrong with me, I just think too much. New members in the Basketball team, u got placed & had to move to Mysore, I missed u like Hell, crying Day & night, thank God I was still in the Main 5 in the team, BasketBall was my only Relief from all the Problems. 11th was awesome. The maximum no. of Tournaments was at this time. Most times , no school,  but kept going for all Tournaments, the matches we played, the Experience we had as a team, brought us all together & it was really a gr8 time to be with my Gang, we called ourselves Gangsters & naanga panna arathu iruke, appadi irundichu :) u were in Mysore all dis tym, & I remember the December Tour, Hell lot of fun we had together as a Family. Just Mom, Dad, u & me. I loved it :)

12th Std,
I don't think I ever studied in 12th, it was even more fun. Almost all my gang members were Captains, it was so much fun being 'Blue House Games Captain', How we used to fight over Red & Blue, cause u were in Red House & I in Blue House. This year also we had many Tournaments & u'l were always nagging me to Study. But till January we Had Matches, & Feb Study Holidays I studied like a Pei, Day & Night, Happa How I was, I don't Remember anything else except how veriya I was preparing dat 1 week, yellam oru peedhi dan, unga kittalam yaru thittu vangaradhu. Finally, the Board Results, Thank God it saved me, got an Engineering seat in Counseling.

Counseling,
Remember, how Happy I was once I picked Panimalar Engg College, & Remember the Conversation after I came out with u, Oodhana Baloon la Kathu pudingi vitta mari panna, at 1st I was disappointed, but now I'm thankful for finding myself back, I don't think any other place would have been apt for the purpose.

College 1st year,
I was very Busy dat I din't even care to speak to u. Unless the 2nd sem, something funny happened in college. Remember all dat. Craziest moments ever.

College 2nd year,
We've just started getting back to our normal states of Conversation.

College 3rd year,
How much ever u'l tel me to study, I'm not even touching my book. Now, I'm more matured (sometimes) than u, atleast I act more matured :P & u r d one seeking all d advice from me ;)

Final Year,
Ur married & have to Leave to Bangalore, & here I am giving u My HEARTIEST WISHES, for u to HAVE THE BEST OF BEST IN THE YEARS TO COME :) :D

With all the Love from God, Have A Happy & Fun Filled & Prosperous Life for the years to come :)

Once again,
Wish u a very Happy Life Ahead :)
