The above written lines mean 'LEAD US FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT' THIS IS D MOTTO OF MY SCHOOL AND HENCE MY TODAY'S  POST IS PURELY BASED ON MY SCHOOL MEMORIES!!!


FIRSTLY MY SCHOOL'S NAME UDAYACHAL..AND I AM PROUD 2 B AN UDAYACHALITE!!!


I have heard many people saying school days r best days of one's life..the friends u make there..the teachers who teach u...n above all the values instilled in you is what is going 2 b wid u throughout ur life-time.


Firstly my pre-primary days r days i certainly cant forget..v being those small kids pampered by all..walking in a straight line 2 d painting room or the doll's house(that was indeed my favorite class),listening to teachers watever they say..the music class,d dancing room,then d foyer where v al used 2 b seated for r snacks..absolutely delicious snacks i used 2 njoy them d most..den the school bell ringing n running towards d bus and finding a seat for ur best friend n yourself..wat days mann..being d eye-candy of all d teachers..u fall-down they used 2 come running 2 u n wipe ur tears being just like a second mother 2 u in ur school..in my pre-primary days roopal teacher wz n will always be my favorite teacher..v all used 2 b so care free no tension of home-work..no xams just enjoying r childish ways..n those 2 years of ur life just fly away n then ur promoted 2 d primary section.


My primary school days were as gud as my pre primary days..though in my 1st std i got a very strict teacher but v used 2 njoy r days..coz v used 2 get proxy periods as most of d days my teacher would b absent.mornings v used 2 assemble and each class would perform  a skit or dance n then there would be a round of applause for all of us..that itself would put up a smile on r face..d morning prayers learn't so many of them n proud 2 say that i still remember them..then those physical training classes..had really d best sir's n always trying 2 get d best of us in exercises or be it d yoga or the games..but these sessions were really tiring but that had d fun part too..just before breaking 4 lunch all r eyes wud b at d door 2 c wats d snack for the day..n then r all concentration lost on wat teacher is teaching..all d gals sitting together like a round-table conference n having lunch. like-wise d boys..with what speed they used 2 have their lunch only god-knows..only 2 play that extra time..as soon as v get done with r lunch the whole class used 2 play paka-pakdi running around d whole school.we also used 2 play a game called bhoot-bhoot..i dont remember wat that game used 2 be but it wz under this one big tree.r games sessions would continue even after the bell would ring unless someone told us its d second bell ringing v all used 2 run inside d class for d next class.In the art class v used 2 b one trouble some lot..v hv troubled r sirs..so many drawings to do n such abstract drawings i hated it d most..during those days my friends n myself had this fetish for fevicol v used 2 apply d whole of it on r hands n then run to wash it off just to while away r time..n our sir used 2 b really miffed with us..i remember winning d singing competition n was too proud of it n would flaunt about it 2 every1 n after that for all the programs were called 2 sing..in the fourth standard i did my first tribal dance n it was an experience..dressing like a tribal.The board explanations during projects i had d best of of my time doing those coz v did not hv 2 attend the class.Then another programme in school that would be etched out in my memory would b d independence day program being d senior most lot of students v all did a fantastic job n d show totally rocked.The exams though here were a little varied v had round about 10-12 subjects probably none would hv heard off or studied.I still remember a few of them like terminology,problems,reasoning n thinking,general knowledge and many more.The four yaers of my wondeful life had come 2 end n v were all growing up so fast.It just seemed like yesterday dat v first stepped n now d fear of going 2 d high school dawned upon us.


My first day in high school was a day that i cant forget..going with my mom n dad to d hall on the 3rd floor r principal giving us a small speech n then v being told who r class teacher would be..but d moment v stepped into d class there were smiles on every1s face as my same old friends were there with me n my fear and anxiety where all washed away..after all being together for so many years the parting would hv been really tough.My high school days were more of  being responsible n learning new things..being a little independent..but who says u dont hv fun with all those also..v though got shorter lunch breaks now but still v used 2 while away r time chatting or preparing d skit for a class program or practicing a dance(for me dat wz first of its kind in d 6th  std)...v toatlly rocked on!!!My first ever recitation competition took place in dis school i was too gud but lost out coz of my more than loud voice..then being in  choir for all d assemblies..doing at times d comparing thingy..what days they were..then a shock came thru when v were in the 7th std dat my class is going 2 b didvided n all hell broke loose!!v all were shattered n cried till r eyes became dry..i had got so used 2 dis class dat d parting was a thing v all couldn't come 2 terms with !!but d gud part was a few of my friends were still going 2 b me with me in my new class n d best thing was my division dint change at all(B DIVISION)..d intial days were very tough my old friends n myself still used 2 go 2 each others class n hv lunch n chat around..d sudden change wz taking a little toll on us..bt as they say time is d best healer n i got along famously well with my new class n was njoying d new phase of having another set of new friends..this was my class till 10th n it was truly worth being in this class..d fights in d the new class..so many misunderstandings,d teasing thingy,studies getting a lot more complicated,all of us being more competitive but undoubtedly they ought 2 be d best days of my life.D ground display in the 9th std where v were supposed 2 go d Punjabi way was a whole new experience absolutely njoyed it.Then the 2 day trip from school 2 vikramgad it was amazing fun n it wz kinda my first night-out with friends!!!Then d last year with so much studies to do..2 attend classes i surely dint miss out on d enjoyment..d sneezing powder incident would b one such incident which v friends still talk about,d goof-ups,d big-bad fights,d crying, d laughter everything was one full bag of emotions worth living.The farewell day realizing how badly v r going 2 miss all d fun n frolic v had' miss our teachers, our friends n all d spoon-feeding n pampering stuff.

I can go on and  on with my good old golden days but those many words and thoughts will also be insufficient 2 express what i feel.so i leave out here with a nice feeling 2 hv remembered so many things n realize how much i miss them when i look back now.


My teacher used 2 always tell us 'THE OUTSIDE WORLD IS A BIG BAD WORLD' N I STILL REMEMBER THOSE WORDS N THEY R VERY MUCH TRUE.'THANKS A LOT MAM FOR THOSE WONDERFUL WORDS  IT HAS SURELY MADE ME A STRONGER PERSON!!!

CHEERS...

MUMBAI LOCAL!!!

We always say d three basic necessities for us humans r food,clothing n shelter...but many of d mumbaites would agree wid me dat r mumbai locals r d most important too in dis category..can v mumbaites imagine a life without dem...for me its an absolute 'NO'...

Travelling in mumbai locals teaches us d biggest lesson 'survival of d fittest'..ny1 new 2 mumbai finds d crowd maddening..probably dey can faint seeing d crowd especially at d peak hours...but for mumbaites nothing better dan dis n nothing worse dan dis..i cant imagine a day without dem..in case dese guys on a strike den dont ask...mumbai turns upside-down!!!

I am privileged 2 be one hard-core traveler ...its seven long years been doing day in n out...n each day my liking for d  travel just grows..d travel makes me learn so many things..undoubtedly makes my travel worth it..

I get 2 see something new eveyday..people reading books.some even goin d spiritual way..listening 2 songs..eaves dropping,fighting 2 find a little bit of leg-space,uttering cuss words if its too crowded..gossipng tops d list..among d varied list eaves dropping is ma favourite pass tym n yea listening 2 songs..a day without dem is boring for me.

On d more lighter side there r so many random thoughts running on ma mind when i travel...i guess i think best when im travelling..dats wht made me write my todays post...dere is so much of creative energy flowing..it transcends me into a completely new world...

At times i do travel alone n i must say..it gives me d  "ME TIME"..it gives me my space 2 think so much more..

They say its a small world after all...i keep meeting d same people in my travel everyday..n v exchange smiles...dat surely makes my day!!People who r absolute strangers 2 u n u smile at dem it ,makes my travel worth it...after a tiring day n in d mad-rush people trying 2 smile jus keeps me going..
 
LASTLY I WOULD JUST LIKE 2 SAY ITS JUST A LOCAL 2 MILLIONS OF MUMBAIKARS BUT FOR ME ITS A LIVING...AAMCHI MUMBAI ROCKS N AAMCHI LOCAL FULL-ON ROCKS!!!

PROUD 2 BE A MUMBAIKAR!!!

CHEERS!!!

A Beginning...

Hello folks...its been a while i wanted 2 blog..but i would always come up till here n then turn my back..some or d other reason used 2 hold me back n i used 2 stand at d same place thinking when i would realize dis small dream of mine into reality..alas d time has come..realizing dis dream which i was harbouring in myself since how many years..writing has always been my passion..it gives me profound happiness n peace..it surely relieves so much of my stress..wat better way dan penning down ur thots..so i say its just a beginning of so much more!!!

I am a little inhibited...a little excited..a little anxious...going through a gamut of emotions..hoping 2 make dis space a really interesting one..where people can voice their opinions..suggest some,criticize a few..all in all mixture of everything good n bad...

So as they say together v can make a difference..that's what i am gonna try doing here..so just need your support n love..rest will follow!!!

CHEERS!!!
