Shri Gurubyo Namaha !!!

Heyi,

Shri Gurubyo Namaha !! "I salute to my teacher". This is a line which is often heard at a lot of concerts, programs.. We use it to salute ones Guru.. "Guru" means "Teacher"[for the benefit of those who do not know].

Yesterday was teachers day !! I had planned surprises for few important people in my life but couldn make it because of my health. Though, its not jus i have jus that one day ! Teachers day is jus like another Mothers Day and Fathers day and a friendship day. Its not that we remember them only that day, Jus that a day we dedicate to them..

Teachers are one of the very important people in our life. A Good Teacher is one who imparts knowledge, a great teacher is the one who Inspires.. All good teachers are not great ones though. I ve come across my fair share of teachers all through these 19 years of education and a few great teachers who have made a mark in my life. Hats off to them !! I still call them on Sept 5th.. I do wish them on their birthday !!. Apart from academics i was always into Dance and music. In places of art a guru plays a very important role. She is the one responsible for the Sishya(Student). She is an inspiration.

So comin to the point. We would never think of thanking our teachers. We might feel its their duty. But its not jus duty that they perform. Its passion. So, the list begins..

First Of all Stands Amma.. A mother is always the first teacher of the kinds.. Teaches us how to walk, speak, eat, bathe, wat not !! Hats off Mom !!!

I thank all my primary teachers.. Ms.Sunitha, Ms.Fraser, Ms. D'Monte, Ms. Ceaser, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Rathna.. They played a very important role in putting the basics on to our head and mainly improving my handwriting. It was bad [Now its good, thanks ta them] I ve got it on my knuckles with a wooden scale !!!

My unforgettable School where i learned the so much out of life.. Rosary Matric.. Remains the best teacher ever to me..

Middle School.. I was a BRAT! I sit on veranda walls, behave like a rowdy(gangster).. These ladies found it hard but atleast half accomplished in teachin me a qualities of a girl.. Ms. Anitha, Ms. Punitha, Ms. Antonet, Ms. Stella, Ms. Sheela( A GREAT teacher), Ms. Jayashri(she made me fall in love with geography), lot more..

High School.. Ms. Maria, Ms.Sudha, Ms. Mercy(Maths.. I was always a centum holder), Ms. Ramani(Unforgettable English), Ms.Meera(Right from Middle school-Sanskrit, The most patient person who put up with any nonsense i did and liked me so so much), Ms. Helen(Called us all dumbos)..

Apart from all this..My Music teacher at school Ms.Shyamala.. With her i spent half my school life in the piano room learnin so many new songs !!!

School time always had tutions.. And my tution teachers i would never forget include Diwakar, Arasu and at middle school where i never knew their name but always called them Miss..

MOP Vaishnav Graduation.. here faculty i d say din make a big impact on me but sure they improved my confidence levels and if i have so much Guts, its because of the course i did and the college i did it in !!

SSN.. My PG program MBA.. Here faculty did make a lot of difference.. I learnt a lot of professionalism from most of our faculty who walked in.. Mr Balasubramaniam(HOD), Mr. Kasturirangan, Mr. Shekar, Mr. Rajan. Apart from them.. Mr.Kannan(Gives a lot of valuable insights personal and work related), Ms.Vijaya Mani, Vani Haridasan, Mr.Mahesh Doraiswamy, and Mr.Srinivas Gumparthi..

There is a conspicuous absence? Mr.Srinivasan. I din put that up cause he still remains my teacher !!! I do learn a lot from him..

Then leaving behind academics, I should thank my dance teachers Ms.Kousalya who groomed my basics, Ms. Meenakshi who still remains one of my best teachers and a great role model for my dance.

Here is a list i made rattling my memories... Thank You so much all of you for making such a difference in my life and grooming me into what i am today !!

THANK YOU !!!!

Cheers
