The School Is On.....

The School is on again and we have started off with a new academic year....It's my 10th...SSC...which means a hard study of about 8-9 hours per day....The news that 2 sirs left the school (who didn't teach us) proved to be a boon for us...As the teachers get tired early and we get few off periods... It's hectic to study so much time in a day but we manage to do it...

Now here are some pics from our trip to Ratnagiri...A place nearby our town...It was our school trip and we enjoyed a lot...

This is a pic of the statue of a great freedom fighter in Indian history....Lokmanya Tilak....We had been to this place where he lived for many years...The house was so antique, simple, yet so beautiful and soothing....

This is Koustubh....An easy going , happy go lucky kind of guy...He is very humorous and a kind of foolish at times...He pretends to be a 'Dude' type of guy...He has passed his 10th this year itself...A lovely nature...

These two are Shreya (left) and Alisha (right)...These two have been with me I was in 1st std...Jolly by nature and very good friends of mine...

This is Shoyeb...Initially I did not have much closeness with him but later I found that he was really a nice boy...We have been friends since then...

Actually this is the photo in our room...All the boys of 9th and 10th were given only one room and there were 12 of us. There were only 3 beds...But we managed to sleep....Not SLEEP actually....We all were just doing time pass...

This is Namrata... One of the finest Chess players of our school...She is the only one in our school (along with my friend Pradeep) who has beaten me many times in chess...Her High-Tech Engineered moves combined with Classy Traditional moves make her a Deadly chess player...
Fun loving sometimes and serious at others...Maybe she is CONFUSED???

This is Gauri...........A.K.A. Loudspeaker, Dhol, Shut Up, Please Keep Quiet.... That's because she doesn't SPEAK with anyone....She SHOUTS on everybody...And keeps on shouting.....

But overall she is a very good girl and one of my best friends....We have done together many dramas, plays, we have sung many songs together....In many competitions and have won prizes....She is a very simple but very nice girl.......

This is Bhingare Sir.....Doesn't seem like a Sir, does he????He has left our school this year....He is very humorous and jolly.....Even when he is teaching...He teaches Marathi, Hindi and Arts....He is a superb contemporary poet, a painter, a play director and a brilliant chess player....He is the one who taught me painting, sketching, acting in dramas and being humorous in skits, playing Chess and what not.......!!!!!!!!!

This is what we all were doing in our room......It's a pic at about 4 a.m...!!!!! We NEVER SLEPT for more than 2 hours on our trip....

In this pic you will see....Alan (the one in sleeveless), Shoyeb, Tanmay (the one with yellow and green doctor's sleeves T-shirt), Manoj, Kalpesh, Rhishikesh and Ashok.......Alan and Tanmay are also one of my best friends......They both have taught me to play football (soccer)...

And this is it......We returned home, gave our annual exams, got the result and now here it is.....I am in 10th.........I got 95.74% in 9th...Good, but less than what was expected by me.....

HERE I AM GOING BACK TO STUDIES....
