                                                             First Encounter....
After traveling a thousand miles from home,i finally reached my destination. Dehradun a town situated in the valleys of mussoorie hills. And my school right beneath the lovely and serene queen of hills.I had a great reception from the nature itself,couldn't have asked for more.But i was worried about my life ahead.Caged within a boundary bound by rules and discipline.A suffocating and tedious experience called boarding school.
 
We a contingent of around 30 people from our village arrived a day earlier before anyone else.I had enuf time to settle and sink into this feeling mixed with fear and excitement.

Students have started arriving.Boys and girls from all over the country returning to their second home.Reuniting with friends and a chance to mingle with a band of new strangers.

 I was standing at the balcony of our main building watching all these people swarming around the campus bidding goodbye to their parents.A shy intovert wondering who among these would be his new friends for years to come or would remain the same strangers they are today.

Some has already moved towards their respective dormitories.Saw a lot of boys and girls walking up the stairs.Then i saw her,a pretty face with a smile lit up with a different kind of grace.I mean she is pretty i thought in my head but there must be plenty of pretty girls which i haven't seen yet.So the impact wasn't that deep to keep remembering her face all night without sleeping. I had my hopes high and was looking towards a new day.......
