An important one at that - school! Anjali's tryst with Daksha, Anita's school, which she joined as a two year old in the pay school finally comes to an end. Classes are over, farewell party done and all that's left now is to write the final exams for which they are preparing at home.

| Farewell - all you young adults from Daksha |
From early days of dropping and picking her up,to times when Shobha's cousin Chitra would pick her up and bring her home, to taking the bus, the fun and games, the annual days, sports days, Diwali melas, science exhibition, excursions, school trips, sports, quizzes, dances, skits...what not, it has been a hell of a journey for us. Harsh and Mansi remained her best friends until Harsh left for Mumbai, Mansi still remains. Other friends have left - Manha is one that I remember, helpers, drivers Jehangir, Aziz, Tirupati, Srinivas,, Kaung Fu sir, Skating sir, teachers, Rajesh uncle, Lingam uncle, the list goes on and on.
And among the teachers first and foremost comes Anita, then Radhika, Kamakshi auntu, Lakshmi Sharma aunty, Sunita aunty, Chandana aunty, Sarita aunty, Indira aunty, Shashidhar sir, Raj sir, Varun sir...oh every single one of them gave her love and affection and contributed to what she is now.

| Where it all began! |
So when she and Mansi prepared for their farewell party - they planned to sing a couple of songs - and I was deputed to be the one to drop them, it was a nostalgic moment.We stopped at the old Daksha school and got a picture and then went to the new school.

The farewell party went well and they all had an after party at Comic Social. Ah, wonderful memories. When we went to college there was this fad of having autograph books where everyone would write something - such a cute idea that was. Wonder what they do nowadays.
II'll add some more to this but for now - another huge chapter comes to an end!
