After having become such a popular singer and achieving great heights u ve spoken about ur,sorry our school & princi. I was ur junior in HSSS (2 yrs younger i suppose) & my mother still works there ( Prema - Science teacher). I ve such a close feeling towards that school. Ur words about the grounds & throwball tournament were just apt. Swarna Maam was one of my favs too. The way she taught was really different. Not the run of the mills. For u to remember and mention their names is such a great act. Hats off to u!!!!<br /><br /> Whenever i see u on TV or Hear ur songs i used to lament to everyone near me that u were my senior. My husband and in laws must ve heard it a zillion times by now and i dont think i m gonna stop it in the future too.<br /><br /> Soooooooooooooooooooooo happy for u and wish u a great life ahead.<br /><br /><br />Cheers <br />PriyaPriyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06167698305540667373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-70899384581479247842012-02-10T12:30:56.450+05:302012-02-10T12:30:56.450+05:30People keep telling that school days are always an...People keep telling that school days are always an era of wanna-go back to.But I have always had the same idea of yours.First time hearing the same opinion about school days!!!Good n elaborate writeup though.Keep up.Padmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04549419090369120757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-7494104801200229002012-02-09T16:54:58.082+05:302012-02-09T16:54:58.082+05:30A friend of mine always asks me, " what do yo...A friend of mine always asks me, " what do you get from reading blogs?, it is someone else's ramblings about his/her life usually..how does it connect to you". I have never answered him properly till now and I think I have found an answer in this post of yours, Thanks.<br /><br />All of our lives are similar and different at the same time, and this interplay of what we share in common and what you have seen different from me is what makes us enjoy these words. <br /><br />Thanks once again for such a beautiful post.Wandererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922754126733540313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-46163921761965663122012-02-08T10:34:37.508+05:302012-02-08T10:34:37.508+05:30Blog-க்கு தான் பெயர் வைக்கலன்னு நெனைச்சா, இப்போ po...Blog-க்கு தான் பெயர் வைக்கலன்னு நெனைச்சா, இப்போ posts-க்கும் பெயர் வைக்கறதில்ல .. என்ன கொடுமை சரவணன் இது?<br /><br />Really enjoyed reading your recent posts. Very mature thinking shines through in your writing. Like the way you refrain from critizing your critics, awesome.<br /><br />Have you hired some hi-tech writer (Shelly, Wordsworth, Wodehouse, etc) to write your blogs? ;-)Cosmoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08400565131346771530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-73055600865471873892012-02-06T14:50:12.148+05:302012-02-06T14:50:12.148+05:30Hi Chinmayi,

Principal, VP and my dad were very good friends then.But,my dad had to move to some other place for his government job.He used to tell a lot of stories about HSSS because he loved HSSS. Me n my brother were the students of Hindu too until 1990:)<br /><br />If my dad had continued his work in HSSS, he would have been a proud teacher of u, my bro might have been ur class mate and myself,your junior:)Ha ha ha!<br /><br />Anyways,your are such a great human and a fabulous singer :)<br /><br />PS: The comment might be so random,sorry for spamming ur blog :) <br /><br /><br />Cheers,<br />VasanthVasanth Natarajannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-92050297213528545112012-02-06T13:48:29.346+05:302012-02-06T13:48:29.346+05:30That's a beautiful perspective..

All we were expected to do was play and study (a little bit of it). <br /><br />But its really good to know of your principal who was flexible enough to encourage talents in students, beyond studies. If we had ten prinicipals like that in each major city, we would be counting Olympic Gold medals like China. That country (along with Australia) is getting the basics right. We in India are more focused on how to 'settle down' by getting a secure job. <br /><br />ESAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-55722428299414596182012-02-01T13:07:46.881+05:302012-02-01T13:07:46.881+05:30yen College ellaam Enjoy pannaliya...?Illa Sweet m...yen College ellaam Enjoy pannaliya...?Illa Sweet memories ethuvum Illaya mam..?RajaPriyannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12719946.post-57445292336028614202012-02-01T12:37:17.550+05:302012-02-01T12:37:17.550+05:30Hi Chinmayi, read your blog regularly but haven...Hi Chinmayi, read your blog regularly but haven't left many comments.
