 Trust Your Dream
You may have a distant dream,
Thinking about which makes your eyes agleam.
To make it happen true,
Some things you need to know and do.

Knowledge first you have to gain,

To take the first step to your dream domain.
To make your dream truly realise,
Passion is the fire you require highs. A. Vaibhavi
IX
When face challenges in your way
Don’t fret about the problem or blame past, nay!
Instead look deep and discover the bug in the code,
Accomplish it and continue on the road.

You might get hindered in view of the matter at stake.

Believe in your dream; don’t let your conviction shake.
I say, be sure, if it’s really your chance,
Take it, as a one-time game, give your best and play and prance!

Persevere, until you reach your destination,

Then you will finally achieve your aspiration.
Now, when you look back and see the hills you summited with grit,
You would know for sure the struggle and labour were worth it!

Time
It is only on the clocks.
But has value of more than this.
Such a small word.
But has the power to make or break someone.

This pendulum of clock starts ticking again not stopping forever.

Ages and ages passed, but this never stopped.

If walked holding hands with it,

It will treat you as a friend.
So, just don’t stop.

Just walk and walk. Anshi Sharma

Don’t see the past!
Make it your friend. IX

Let’s remember and celebrate the life of our dear Kallol sir, who left us midway. He was a
kind, generous, and dedicated teacher who touched the lives of so many students and
colleagues alike. His passion for teaching was infectious, and his love for his students was
evident in everything he did. He was always willing to go the extra mile to help them succeed,
both inside and outside of the classroom.

It is a testament to his skill as a teacher that so many of his students remember him fondly,
and it is clear that he made a lasting impact on their lives.

We will miss his smile, energy, and enthusiasm for life. But we will always remember him as
a person who made a difference, who believed in the power of kindness, and who touched
the lives of so many.

Rest in peace, our beloved Kallol sir, you will be greatly missed.
