Twelve years ago, when I first stepped into this campus, as a first standard student, I was pretty sure I hadn’t given much thoughts to how the next few years to follow would turn out to be. I wasn’t old enough to worry about stuff like that. Twelve years since, I am still here, still wondering what the past few years meant to me. Its hard to pick up beautiful memories from your heart, you definitely would miss something, if you try to remember them one by one the best memory which I feel are those which surface from deepest of part of your heart and makes you smile this school has provided me with such memories and friends who helped to create memories of that kind its really hard to imagine that one day we have to part but no one insists that we should part with the memories.

When I was little I used to think that school are drab but when I grew up I realized that there couldn’t have been a little alternative for heaven on earth. For twelve years we have been part of this institution the walls of this institution have taken up our little secrets, complaints and promises. We had walked through these corridors thousands of times(running practically and colliding with others) but walking through them is different special these year as well I fell its special because it does hold some fond memories of crashes and collisions.

And to add it all up are friends. Friends who make you smile, friends who walk along side you, friends who always make you go nuts(that’s the new version of friendship) friends who are crazy, wild and simply adorable. Here is an isolated block of the school. We create our own world(or hell rather) and we love doing it. mutual understanding and cooperation had always been our moto (or was it run while you still can??) I have no idea how I reached upto 12 without creating a world war 3. I admit there had been some ‘pearl harbour’ ‘hiroshima’ and ‘nagasakis’ for sure, but still we make it and that’s really something I believe.

Remember the time when we used to glance outside at rain when the teacher went on to describe a particular battle fought by aparticular king at some particular time, for some particular territory? not written Those were good times, I admit, but better wer the moments when we were actively involved in the class, did not fell like we were prisoners within four walls and felt like free birds.

Then there are the teachers, I used to wonder a little girl why wouldn’t they leave us alone? But now I realize that at home away from home , there need to be someone to care for you lead you on the right track and the teachers do just that. I know a simple thank you would not settle all that they had done for us we owe them a great deal.

Great! Now I feel terrible. These memories will haunt me forever(ok, that was a little bit too poetic) I will miss this school, the great moments and my friends. I would definitely miss those moments ehen we used to hold a conference on how to blow up the school, starting with chemistry lab, to discover whether the physics lab was haunted, or to conduct archeological discoveries in bio lab. Those were fun days and we loved. And now its all coming to an end. But I believe friendship never come to an end. Far or near, friends are always dear. We’ll see each other soon, someday and I believe that we won’t have to wait really long for those days to come. (I don’t want to wait for really long). So for the time being good bye.

Dr. Emilie Harriet was deep in sleep when the telephone rang. Irritated, she answered the phone. It was her assistant Gwen Tennyson on the other end.

“Emilie,” she said “you have to hurry up and get to the lab.”

“Oh, please, C’mon Gwen, you can’t expect a person to work 24 hours. I need some rest” said Emilie.

“Rest now! Emilie and you ‘re going to miss the biggest ever break through in science” Gwen said.

“What is it, Gwen? A new comet? “The physicist in her was wide awake now.

“Comets are no big sensation these days, my dear. What we have here may be much more than comets and asteroids.” Gwen said “Emilie, your Interspace Telecommunicator is a wild success. We now have recorded what seems to be a message from another world? ” “Just hurry up and get here as fast as you can!” Gwen held up. Emilie couldn’t believe it. The Interspace Telecommunicator, in her opinion, was a big junk and nothing else. And the idea of drilling a hole in fabric of space and time was ridiculous. But now, which seemed to be a worthless invention, had emerged as a highly priceless one, especially now, when the world was plunging into the third world war, predicted to be worse than the other two.

Emilie was panting when she reached the lab. Restless and anxious she hurried to where Gwen was standing. Near her, just inches away was the century’s greatest invention, buzzing now and then.

Emilie sat down beside the telecommunicator. She started adjusting the machine. The Telecommunicator gave a loud ‘ screech’ and shut down. Silence wrapped the whole room. Gwen and Emilie where hardly breathing. Then out of that deadly silence came a feeble voice, clear but trembling, either due to excitement, or due to fear “ To those who are still out there.......”

The voice continued “I send this message to those beings who are still out there, somewhere beyond the stars, so that they may never commit the mistake we did. I am Queen Tiyi Amateratsue, ruler of the planet Cephatoroh, in the far end of the Universe. But do not attempt to search for us now, we no longer exist. By the time this message reaches you, we’ll be gone for good. We were a species highly intellectual, highly advanced. Our world took its first breath 80 billion years ago. Cephatoroh consisted of a single landmass amidst an endless vast ocean, where we the Cephatorierns lived. We used our technology not for our comfort, but to conquer. We created pathways and portals into new world and upgraded our technology to satisfy our hunger for power. But not all of us loved war. Some of us protested but were suppressed. I was one among them. I built machines to warn the other beings in the Universe about the danger awaiting them. It is through one such machines, I am communicating with you now. By the time, this signal reaches you, we will vanish from the face of this Universe. We had done our part, building machines for destruction, now it is time for nature to play hers. I have studied all about my planet and I know what the frequent trembling of the land could mean. Some sort of seismic activity was building up inside our planet. Our landmass would sink soon, into the bottomless depths of the ocean. The machines build for destruction cannot save us now. We have to go, it was decided the force that created us. My message must end here but with a warning – Wars are nothing but destruction of Peace, Hope and every thing. Good luck to you, whoever you are.”

Gwen and Emilie sat speechless for a few minutes. Then Emilie sighed “ Queen Tiyi did her part, Gwen but too bad, she doesn’t know that she conveyed her message to a race that seeks to justify war. It had been so for the past years, it’ll be so for the coming years as well. We humans will never learn”

“Emilie”, Gwen said “ wars never can be justified, time will prove that, I am sure ”

“I hope so Gwen” said Emilie “ I really hope so”

My Mother is good & kind,

And she is good to look at.

I like her so much,

She loves me too.

She may beat or scold,

But I don’t mind.

I like her so much,

As my favourite person.

She corrects me, When I am wrong,

And gives clues to solve.

I like her so much,

As my favourite Mom.

We plead for many things to God. We seek strength, wisdom, prosperity, love, courage, favours & richy and often we complain we are not answered ! .

But……

God gives us difficulties to make us strong,

Problems to solve to increase our wisdom,

Brawn n’ brain to work to prosper,

Dangers to overcome, To make us courageous,

Troubled people to help, to show us love and…..

Opportunities to achieve our needs…..

We may not get everything we demand, But we do get everything we need….

ALWAYS BELIEVE IN ALMIGHTY !

May God Bless You !

We Often Use The Proverb "GIVE RESPECT & TAKE RESPECT" . Are We Really Practicing This ? Our Answer Would Be "NO" . In Olden Times , Our Society Was Not Well Developed In The Field Of Technology & There Were Few Literate In India . But Then India Was Known For Her Culture.

In Modern times , Men Are Running After

Money . We Live In A Country Where The Rich Dominates The Poor . Even Though Equality Is Our Fundamental Right , It Is Not At All Pratical Anywhere . People Have Become Proud & Selfish.

As The Future Citizen Of The Country , It Is Our Responsibility To Build A Country Whose Citizen Have Equal Social facilities . We Must Be Sensitive To The Poverty Around Us . So It's Our Resposibility To Support The Poor With Our Little Hands.

Trees are plants. They are usually tall and have a main stem called a trunk. They come in many colours and size. The tallest trees are the tallest plant on earth. Some trees can grow as tall as a soccer field is long. trees grow eveywhere on earth, exept for deserts at the equators and the North and South poles.

Trees provide protection from the wind. Trees provide places for animals and other plants to live. Trees help create the air we breathe by turning the gas carbon dioxide into oxygen. trees are used to make some medicines that fight cancer and other diseases.

IMPORTANCE OF LITERACY

Educated and skilled citizens are a nation's asset. Literacy helps a nation in economic,scientific and cultural progress. It also helps in wiping out social evils. Literacy is a prerequisite for democracy, which is considered as the best form of government.

If democracy is to suceed, people have to make correct choice. Only literate public can evaluate the policies and programmes of government. Literacy also helps to increase efficiency. Literacy makes people conscious of their rights and duties.

Literacy prevents exploitation and thus for economic development. Social evils like dowry and communalism can be eliminated to a great extent. In short literacy is essential for leading a smooth and successful life.

                                SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES

            

         Today we live in world where we cannot remain even for a single day without taking on the phone
         or chatting on the internet without your parents,relatives,friends and even with unknown people.
                so in this era of mankind what we need is a tool that would help us to communicate with people
                all around the world and this is what is social networking.There are different social networking 
                websites like facebook,orkut,twitter etc.................................................................................
         A question that comes to our mind - " Do social networking sites do harm more than good.
         personally I believe that social networking sites are harmful and do have consequences.Recently
         there had been an incident concerning Facebook one of the most popular social networking sites.
         Not too long ago a girl in her teens made a friend on Facebook-a chat buddy.The other unidentified
         person did not give any personal information.They both met at the mall and the girl was never seen 
         again.Think what would be if this happened to all this girl-the situation will be of chaos.The other 
         defect of the these sites are that children don't find time to spend time with their parents.
                 What if the child comes under cyber bullying? 
                  It would lead to depression so social networking sites should be restricted only those who are 
                  above 18 years of age should visit these sites........................................................
