ITS ALL OVER!!!!


this is supposed to be the speech i had to give on my farewell day...and i started crying while doing the same!!!

"well , it had to happen one day.My time here has come to an end.

A very good afternoon to one and all present here.

Though being a full time chatterbox , words don't come easy to me when it comes to speaking on an occasion like this!All throughout my school life , i have seen batches of students being bade farewell and in all those times, I've feared the day when i will be among those steeping outof the doors of this institution forever.Today the time seems to have come for me too to make a transition from present to history.
I don't know if you realise how difficult it is for a student who has spent years of her life, in fact more than half of her life thus far,in a schol, to step out of it.Perhaps what makes it more difficult is the fact that you are leaving behind the care and guidance of ever respectful teachers, the love from friends- only to soon find everything has shrunk into a handful of memories.

An episode of my life is over, perhaps the most important one,but the greatest happiness lies in the fact that it could'nt have been more memorable.

Today as i am here to bid you goodbye,i'd like to share a few of my experiences....

i have won many many important awardsfrom and on behalf of this school, the most treasured one being-THE BEST STUDENT AWARD and THE BEST CULTURAL PERFORMER AWARD.I alse remember the days when i used to hang around the teachers like a puppy and listen to everything they say, (though now i have become very naughty).I also remember the exhibitions and annualday functions i had attended.

The most important of all being making a complete mess of myself,taught me varied lessons that not even the whole twelve years of schooling could not teach!

years passed like the quick roll of drums , andsoon we were in class twelfth!I know we couldnt bring about very many changes!perhaps there wasnt a need!But what greatly satisfies me is that we dint have to face any major problems,not even a single one.The students of KV proved to much more disciplined than i had imagined.It indeed gives you lot of happiness to see a fellow youngster greet you-GOOD MORNING didi! as he walks past you.

When i was small i used to hate the prefects for being harsh on us kiddos.Now as one of the prefects,i was not the same.ts attitude proved to be more helpful as i could be more approachable and got to know my house members both young and the elder , better.

KV has been more than just a school for me.In my life till now my teachers have been everything for me.The amount they have done for me is possibly not quantifiable.

This day as i prepare to leave, i'd like to thank The Principal madam,all my loving teachers , my fellow classmates and all youngsters for all your love and care.I also wish to thank the prefect's cabinet for all the helo and advice they've given me.

The only message i have for you is that if our batch has done something good-please learn from us,and if we had our faults,then please be sure t discard them(its not worth accomplishing).Even if students must come and go KV and the young and energetic spirit must always remain the same forever-shining and smiling in the hearts of all its members.

Its hard to put into words all that i feel right now,but some day im going to look back into these days and feel GREAT!!!

Always remember:

THE JOY OF A BOOK IS IN THE PAGES YOU HAVE NOT YET READ!

THE GLORY OF YOUR LIFE LIES IN THE DAYS YOU ARE YET TO LIVE!

GO AHEAD! FIND THE PERSON YOU ARE GOING TO BECOME IN THE FUTURE!


bidding you all farewell....with loads and loads of love hugs and kisses,signing off-HANSA"

How lucky you are to have got so much from your school that makes saying goodbye so hard for you.I read that "It is indeed ironic that we spend our school days yearning to graduate and our remaining days waxing nostalgic about our school days." How true.
Your speech must have been a great hit.My best wishes for your resounding success in the exams.

you made me cry
even after spending 3 years in my college now, it never gave me the warmth and homeliness that i found in my school..
those 12 years were the best of my life..
i still well up when i think abt my school and hate the truth that im no longer a part of it.

some things cannot be helped....i too cry a lot just cuz am missing school,...in fact my teachers call me during school hours just to tell me that the present batch is very boring...that they want us all back to entertain them!!!we were so notorious....
