13th November 2009 ... one of the best days in life ...
in the morn got up late .. but managed to get ready for school .... unfortunately my van had come early so i had to leave eating only one dosa ... in the van i had a gr8 music treat .... songs from parijatham , yaaradi nee mohini and other hari ji and karthik songs poured in ... i also checked out the best pic of jesus at the vanuampet church which is close to my house ...

getting down from the van , me and my van mate who is also in 10th kept walking slowly in a very sluggish manner till our legs reached the class ... after 15 minutes of gossip with shar , archanaa ,  srinidhi , akshaya and other classmates , we were called down for the group dance .... on the way me and shar kept singing the song " unnai kandene " from parijatham .... one of our fav !!

the group dance turned to be a lil boring where in the shivaji house topped it ! i saw one of the 11th girls from the state board who i had fancied till last yr ... she had come for a basket ball match ... it was 8:40 when we were asked to return to class ... i spotted mallu who had come late ... i waved to her and showed a symbol that i had seen that cute girl !

as soon as we rchd class our soc mam entered ... it was a gd topic " agriculture " ... but i wanted to somehow bunk the class ... suddenly sri from the other class had come and called out my name ... i stared for a few minutes and then excused myself from the class ... i was led into the bio lab where subha mam told me that i had got a prize in the slogan writing contest ... she asked me to rewrite the entire thing in a better manner with sketches ... i posed a stupid q " SHOULD IT BE IN MY HANDWRITING MAM ???!!" she was like " obv mythreyi " giving her a silly smile i left back to the class ... my soc mam congratulated me and the whole class applauded ... i felt so happy ... i then begged for an a4 sheet and luckily got it ...

i immediately turned bac to shar and asked " sketches please " ... she was sweet enof to give me them ... soon i drew the margin of the paper and started writing my slogan ... bdw the topic was " PREVENTIVE VIGILANCE " ... after completing i arranged the sketch pens back in the cover and returned it to shar after getting an approval about the presentation of my slogan... i went to sri and gave it to her and saw her busily writing her essay ... she had got the 1st in essay ...

but the worst part was that even after rching class i had 20 min of soc ... but i was at the top of the world ... i never expected a first for this slogan ... anyways ... the next period was math and it went on as usual with just 3 sums from areas of circles ... then came the short break when mallu came rushing to me and congratulated me ...she asked me for half the share of the gift ... then i took a piece of the best cheese toast frm shar .. !
i congratulated ums for getting the 1st prize in dance ...

then the next soc period , hl and the yoga period went without any gr8 incident . !but in the 2nd soc we had a combined class bet 10d and e .... it was a gr8 class and poor soc mam couldnt manage the 80 of us ... chem mam was absent on that day ... wow ... wat a day  !! eng period was the greatest bunk ... mam herself understood that we didnt want the period and she gave it to us ... we asked her questions bout all of us for the occasion of CHILDRENS DAY ...

i had the privilage of being the MOST IMPRESSIVE STUDENT ... mallu was the BUNNY OF THE CLASS as usual ... uma the DANCER ... and so on ... everyone got a gd title ...
in the last period we had hl ... we juz wrote some answers and then we put forward the same set of q to mam ... shes such a darling !!

while coming bac in the van great songs poured in ..... i felt so happy that fyn day and dats why i wanted to share my happiness with all of you !!

see you real soon .....

fun and estacy at wayanad !! part 1

"hi srinidhi" i said ... "both of us are the first to come i believe" ... both of us were in the railway station on 27th april at bout 6 30 ... though the train started at 8pm , we were early bcoz we were too excited !! a trip to wayanad with all my friends .... oh my god !!! next i met the others ... and also saw 3 of my close frenz .. roshni , malvigha and sharmada .... all of us had the mobile phones with us tho we were not supposed to ...
soon we had a problem in front of us .. rosh had not brot the id card ... poor thing .. her mom ran all the way home to get it ... alas ! the train had already left ... "thats ok dude " i pacified her !!

obviously i had a spl corner for roshni in the trip bcoz she had already told me that she would be leaving the skool soon and moving to pune ... as and wen the train started... the photo session began ... ppl from all the sections came and took fotos ... in our gang everybody except me had the cam ... (gang  = archanaa , mallu , shar , rosh , srinidhi ) we were just enjoying ... and it was a gr8 start to a gr8 trip ....

then i met a small boy in the opp seat ... he was sooo cute ... and his expressions were gr8 !! "nice ... " , i told myself .... "th train trip is always nice" !!

at bout 10 ... we were forced to sleep by our considerate teachers .... and even then we kept talking ... but between this giggling and whisperings ... komal had lost the key of her suitcase chain ...  poor thing .. she was in our compartment too ... so all of us started checking for it ... "team work works " !! we had got the key at last ... so with a happy and peaceful heart and an excited mind ... we all went to sleep .... but meand roshni were still talking and eating ... later after evryone had slept , i kept thinking ... thinking ... (maybe philosophy : i love it )

my days in a dreamland ... in QATAR ...

id like to dedicate this post to all my close friends in qatar who made my life colourful and fun filled...

"ALL THE BEST MYTHREYI ... HOPE U TOP UR 10TH BOARD EXAMS"... i couldnt help crying while reading my autograph book ..... this was my 7th std maths mam's wishes .... soon i had my thoughts dripping and moving to my life in qatar ... being there for 10years and suddenly leaving from there wasnt a joke ...leaving my best friends , my teachers , school , house , car wasnt like a bed of roses ... i had to leave back some of my property too ... my cycle , computer, and many of the cool restaurants.....

though i had loads of friends , i had one treasure , my best friend , manisha ... i first met her when i was 3 and she was 2 ... oh my god .... cant even believe that we were friends for soooooo long with so many small and big fights coming our way .... but in most situations we stayed together as friends or something more than that ....

soon i opened her page in the autograph book that read " NEVER FORGET ME "!! there are so many great occasions with her ... birthdays were the best .....

"MYTHREYI WHERE ARE YOU , GO AND HANG THE CLOTHES .. " my mom .... i immediately closed the book and put it in my shelf ...i then took the clothes and proceeded to the terrace ... but something was heavy in my heart ... i went on to think about my farewell party at the mc donalds ... when my friends hugged me and wished me a better life at india , i was almost in tears ...

then at last all the clothes were ultimately hung and there was the sun shining and evaporating all the water from the clothes ... i proceeded back..... maybe i should be satisfied with my present goodies .... with that note there was peace in mind ... i whispered " THANX A TON GOD !! " then went on to do my homeworks and studies .....

my trip to ambur .... an unforgetable day ...

Love lives by giving and forgiving .... self lives by getting and forgetting ...... As i revised the topic of my essay at 530am on the day of the zonal level competitions in my van , i was still the same cool person because i was happy that the journey would take almost 4 hours , so i could easily revise them. All of us , 7 participants including me , 3 youths and 1 guru travelled to a place near vellore , ambur ...( very famous for biriyani!!! )

Love is the personification of god ... as soon as i read the first line of my essay , i got diverted by the sunrise scene , for ,i was admiring it for the first time ... i soon got back to the topic and kept reading more ... soon i had a doubt about arthur ashe whose incident i had to mention in my essay and had it clarified by ram baiyya ... we also saw motorola company on our way ...

Two of my close friends were also with me ... raadha had already slept on ravi anna's shoulder .... and sitha was practicing her verses with sri anna ... after about an hour all three of us sat with ravi baiyya and ram baiyya and had a gala time ... we heard bhajans , cine songs , saw funny videos and on and on and on ..

But in the wink of an eye we had reached one of the schools in ambur which was our venue... oh my god ... all of us were thrilled .... we had had the breakfast there ... (yummy !!) and each one of us went to our respective rooms in the school ....

my time limit was 1 hour .... i started breaking my head and wrote all that i could remember .. mother teresa , the jews , khalil gibran , moh. nabi , ......

And then i remembered that i had to underline the important points and also had 2 pictures to draw ... "DRAW" one of the words which i hated .... oh my !! and just 30 minutes in hand ... i went on and on till the judges were pleading me to give the paper .. but hey !! they had taken it 2 minutes before the actual time !! i still had to write the conclusion which i could have done in those 2 min ... THIS WAS WHEN I ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME .... anyways ... next i met raadha and sitha who had also done their competitions equally well ( not great) and we came to the playground and started roaming around ... we then spotted our youths and started a chat with them ...

After lots of teasing ... giggling ... and fooling around we were called for the lunch ... after having sambar rice and curd rice with roasted potato we were off to the bhajan hall ... now was the time when my heart beat quickened ... breating rate faster hands sweating (i might be exaggerating it a little but cant help it !!).... it was the prize distribution ... "ESSAY WRITING- 1PLACE GOES TO MYTHREYI " oh my god ... i ran to the stage while ram anna gave a good hoot and whistle ... all swamis grace ..... 4 more friends also received the prices , including raadha , sitha and one of my cousins sathya .....

The person who had corrected my paper happened to be ravi annas college mate .... he said that the essay was good ...that moment , i had a great sense of pride!!! we then left ambur and started our journey back ... we thought all of us could have a gala time .... WE ONLY THOUGHT .. but one of the important officials had decided to travel in our van for half the distance ... great ... but then we got to know that he was such a kind hearted person and allowed us to do things of our kind ....

After he had left .. we became all the more active ... now had i mentioned , ravi anna is a great philosopher and talks really well ... so both of us were chatting ... about his school and college life , job , philosophy , god ..... and not to forget his mobile .... a sony ericson one with great features ... he explained to me most of them !!

Then all of us spent some time together and cracked jokes , listened to music , and discussed our favorites which contrasted one another ... then came the time when we had to leave the van and go back to our homes with beautiful , ever lasting memories .... my aunt , sathyas mom had come to receive us ... so all of us left with the hope that we would meet once more and have a similar gala time ...

Anyways "ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL "!!
