I had been waiting a week to wake up from the dream. The dream that I won the first rank in Press Club. It had felt so good I didn't want the dream to end. I have never so felt so good. This was not like any other course or class. Here was the best of teachers and the best of peers.
And now a week has passed. No one has woke me up. No corrections have come in the newspapers.
Could this be true?
I was always the absentee student. Classmates liked me like they liked Maveli or Santa Claus. Came along once in a while. Had a good time and left.
Here I am telling myself again and again - it is true!
My heartfelt thanks to all our teachers who taught us what they knew (or atleast tried to).
But most of all to myclassmates and friends. I know (and you know) that this wouldn't have been possible without you - all of you. You gave me notes, encouragement, syllabus, reminders to assignment deadlines and what not. Our batch (evening batch) was the best here in ages.
I don't want to sound pretentious or cliched but - I dedicate my 'victory' to all my classmates - my friends who have always helped me.
This honour truly belongs to you.
