School!!!

 I once got this text message, and maybe many of you might have read it already:

One day God granted a wish to a man.

Man: Please give me my school life back.

God: I’m sorry but I can’t give u heaven!

            Truly, school is paradise on earth! I still remember each and every day of my school, the way we used to rush into our classes, the lectures, and also bunking the lectures! Friends aside, what are best friends? People who always help us in everything and guide us to the right track? No ways! Best friends are a person’s soul-mates. They never allow you to do wrong things……….alone! They live through the school life together, get caught together, win together, lose together, and do every other stuff together.

            My soul-mates were my three dearest friends, more than my life; Eldon Coutinho, Jeet Ganatra, and Malcolm Vaz. These were my only friends who, in a point of fact, made up my entire school life.

            When we shifted from Ambarnath to Mulund, my mom’s first worry was to find a good school for me as my brother, Prajyot, was not yet going to school. St. Pius X High School was the one mom wanted for me. And it was destiny that got me admission in that awesome school!
