Adieu batch 2014-16!!


Everything eventually ends- this is the only universal truth. Like the last days of spring, the final page of a great novel or the climax of a beautiful movie, it's a moment that gives us great joy as well as sorrow. Today was one of those days. Today you bid farewell to all that was familiar and venture forth into an unexplored world with limitless possibilities. The time you spent here has given you all many bittersweet memories that you will cherish for years to come. Let this day not mark the end, but the beginning to the wonderful future that awaits you all. Adieu!!
