The Meet

Hi Mighties!!!
So finally we get to talk abt our Alumni Meet in the past tense...After all the hype and excitement generated in advance regarding the Meet, did it match up to our expectations? ?? The answer has to be a resounding YES!!! Though personally, I was very disappointed to find I was the lone ranger representing the '85 batch...but what the heck, it was fun to watch the oldies (hehehe...just joking!) going back in time and feeling young again!!! Must admit that certain batches made me quite envious too...especially the 71, 77 and 80s batch...I do wish Pijush was quite a few years younger and closer to my batch...bet he would have been able to round up at least a dozen of my batchmates.. .
Anywayz...all those of you who came with your kids...one thing is for sure...they will NEVER EVER refuse to come one of your get-togethers ever again!!!
And once again...thanks to all those of you involved in organizing the entire show...Pijush, Raman, Zulu, Manmadh, Prasanna, Venkat...(sorry if I've left out anybody's names) Thanks once again for a GREAT couple of days!!! And special thanks to all of you responsible for getting Mr.MandeswaraRao to the school...Though he was somebody whose existence I was not even aware of till I saw his name mentioned on the KVMAA site...was terrifically impressed... what a personality! And what a sense of humour! Can well imagine what he was like in his younger days!!!
Well.......here's looking forward to the next Meet...and on a more serious note...we need to actually act upon whatever was said at the Meet at the school, regarding giving back to the school in some form. Let us not get caught in our usual work routine and push all our resolutions to the back of our minds, as is usual with all good resolutions. ..let the thoughts continue thru' the mails and let the action actually begin at the ground level.
Ciao...

Hello Mighty Meera Nair

Your letter was very encouraging and in the right spirit.Ihv had a chance to be with u
in the meet and despite being a lone rep of ur batch u did enjoy the 2 days in its true spirit.Now instead of wishing Mighty Pijush to be a few yrs younger for the purpose of
pooling up frnds, why not u step into the shoes of Mighty Pijush and motivate ur batchmates and the other youngsters (still later batches of mighties) to join this stream?
It is mighties like u who shud mobilise the others in carrying on the taskwhich we have set ahead of us.
Just think it over.
