A brief recap of AY 06/07

As of 13th February exams & school ended for me. It was defintely a year that taught me so much and made me stronger. A year that changed the definitions in my dictionary of various words. A year that gave me new opportunities, new experiences and a new view of life.

As the memories of AY 06/07 remain fresh in my mind, here's an update in random order on the happenings.

Cherish everything around you. Because not everyone has the gift of life. You are somebody who was given the gift, so use it wisely, and never choose to throw this gift away. As i said, not everyone has the gift of life. Like you.
