Into the Christmas mood...

I am loving the feel in the air..the chill taking me a little more closer to the days..that are passed...my childhood...after a long time the cool breeze ..just reminded me my Rkl days.....The Christmas air is just driving me crazy..Only missing my school....but I m sure I'll have a good time this year.....

Waiting for the new years eve impatiently...................Hope new year brings lots of new and good things in every ones Life....

Just got reminded of my favorite tracks...especially Jingle bells...and last Christmas.....This part of year had never been the same ever since I left for graduation..but yes there was NASA at this time every year but more than celebration it was a competition...but missed the carol competitions...the parties...and my gifts that Dad used to get for me...I will miss my favorite Santa i.e Dad...again this year...its been just too long away from home..

Last Christmas at Carmel, Rkl.....

Christmas time is the most exciting time for the whole school..winter vacations...new year functions....all were so exciting before that day..because that day .........it was hard to believe , it was time for all of us to leave the school. On 20th Dec., final performance by class X-B, for Christmas carol...was announced on stage...our hearts were heavy... we had prepared the carol - Rudolph the red nosed reindeer.... but our chords refuse to sing on stage...we some how managed this 5 minutes and rushed to our class rooms.

Carmel Convent School was a girl's school.... I was admitted in this school in Std. IV.. This school was so different as I used to study in a co-education school in Vizag until my Dad was transferred to this city and suddenly in a girl's convent I found myself alone...Time flew in an instance and today I am in my 10 th grade , would be appearing for my Mock Exams in Jan and Board exams in March created a commotion in my heart...I sat still at my desk..After a few moments I realized not me alone but every1 beside was going through this same dilemma. Its always the 9th grade who takes up the responsibility to get involved in the Inter School Christmas carol competition at German Club.. We felt like aliens ..sitting and observing...As if our school was discarding us...all 49 of us...with broken heart....trying to remember the fun we had in chemistry lab....the mistakes we purposely did in maths test....the ways we adopted to irritate our Hindi teacher..the list never ends..

We couldn't cry because we all had 1 thing in common that was our ego..Class X-A and X-B (98 students) .... We decided to speak to our principal about this and we all went to Sister Veronica....and requested for a night stay in school and a batch picnic which was accepted by her..

But something in me ..and ...in the rest made us behave very differently that day..as if we all were supposed to maintain some kind of distance from each other...and some invisible territories came up....we were all suddenly grown up girls.....in that moment..we were ready to face the challenges...accept the family culture...and suddenly so much ready to face this cruel world .........since that Christmas day....!!
