last day?

that's it.
school's closed down early, summer vacations have started 3 days early. On the downside, investiture got cancelled, we didn't have any last day celebrations other than discussing all the cartoons we used to watch and how we used to eat crax and fun flips. On the upside, chhutiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!
plus, 6 students from dps rkp, me, shri roshan shankar(dats wat he wuz called), dakshina, arushi, vrinda nd manpreet went to rashtrapati bhavan to meet our president, abdul kalam on the reservations issue. the talk itself wasn't much, but 'president house' is SIMPLY BREATHTAKING.
Once you enter(from gate no 63) on the left, on the right gardens stretch till no end. a few turns later you reach the parking, where there is a massive courtyard. from there, the reception is the next stop. needless to say HUGE. Then comes the waiting room. Enroute, you see fountains and more gardens. Once in the corridor, it's tooo long to see the end and of course it has doors and doors and more doors.
Truly, the experience was awesome. Imagine, sitting in a room with the president, where all the heads of states etc etc sit, talking with the president for 20 minutes, in the case of manpreet- scolding the president, after having some army hotshot profusely apologizing for the delay.
and i quote- "apni to aukaad badh gayee yaar"

PS- roshan's posted this story- "Alien Invasion" which we'd written in 8th standard and won first prize for in a storytelling competition. the names, the ideas are just tooo gud.

Yeaah!! Holidays!!
It seems that your visit to President has not gone wasted... I read in the newspaper that the bill has got a 6:2 vote against it - so I hope there won't be any more reservations this year!
And yes, Rashtrapati Bhavan is simply amazing place to visit - I remeber when I went there a few years back - Man its HUGE!! And we could even see the Mughal Garden from the window! Really Cool Place!

Enjoy your vacations and keep posting!
;)

Oye manpreet!!! you scolded the president????? Kab sudharegi tu???

Must have been fun visiting the president. Wasn't he very busy??
And by the way even Rasagya got a chance to speak to him in 10th i think. He interviewed him for doordarshan i think.
