My Journey Through Mayo.....

Well for all those who no me, no how much attached i am to Mayo...7 yrs in mayo were one of the best yrs of my life..i joined mayo in 1998 in class 4 (thats da junior most class)..junior school (class 4 to class 6) was a different place in itself..it was another part of mayo...v were mostly trying to cope up with the fact that v were all on our own...this was da time i made my new frnds sum of whom went on to become my really close pals..there were times we missed our homes badly...there were times we stood together to face all the difficulties..there were times we cried together..there were times when we fought together.... it was all fun as we were learin how to live together totally dependent on ourself and our friends.. and it was this time dat i understood d real meanin of friendship.. something which remains with me till date...three years passed like three days and then v entered da 'real mayo'..class 7 was fun..4 da first time all of us(my batch mates) were staying in 1 house...v had gr8 times.made sum more frnds and some foes too..!!it was in oman house that v understood da meaning of unity..v were still sumwhat protected frm the tradition of seniority and juniority...soon v went into class8..batch of 128 was divided into rougly group of 16 and sent to 8 different houses...most of my house mates were new to me!!though v had all lived under one

roof for 1yr!!! sum were my frnd frm junior school and 2 were my roommates frm oman house..however soon v all became frnds and got to konw each other very well...also v got to experience the seniority very closly..however my house, bt house was still a 'protected' house in comparison to others..v started to realise our individual potentials..i still remember that da day v had entered bt house v knew that v were not a strong bunch of boys in terms of sports nd academics but v decided tht v will try our best and make a place 4 ourselves..nd i m happy to say by the time v passed out frm 10th our house had many school level sports players and many of us participated in interschool events...BT house became one of d best house and v had many achievments 2 our name....our dream was achieved...promise fullfilled...


as time passed sadly our batch got divided into small 'groups'..this was the time i came to no abt da so called politics that exsisted in mayo..this was one of the sadest part..sum of us became rivals and though this levelled down a lot as time passed nd v againg began 2 live hapily still sum bad taste continued on till end of class 10 nd even now...i just wish that i could go back in time and change this one thing and that dis would hav never happened..i mad sum very gud frns..my best frnds...to say friends would be to under estimate i would like to say i found brothers at mayo...!!! my stay was one experience that i would never 4get...It made me wat i m today...it taught me about life and is greatly responsible 4 my personality development..for all my success how little it may be rite now, after my parents if someone deserves d credits...its mayo..its my second home and my loyality 2wards mayo will always be same...i joined mayo as a kid and left it as a person who had learnt sum finer points of life..a all round developed person...!!! hope those gud moments culd come again... i m PROUD TO BE A MAYOITE!!!


GO MAYO....LONG LIVE MAYO...LONG LIVE THE MAYO SPIRIT.......Let There Be light....
