This is my Hindi class at School of Oriental and African Studies in London, where we have studied together for the past 4 years and where I have just completed BA in Hindi and Study of Religion. In the front row, on both edges, are my Hindi teachers: Rakeshji from Myssorie, and Aishwarji from Delhi. I am very thankful to both of them for putting up with me and for encouraging me in my learning process. In between them is Zain, my best friend. Top row: me, Louise, Johanna and Emily, who are also lovely people and great friends with whoom I have shared a lot of joyful times! I have learend a lot from all of you. Thank you! Louise is expert in Hindi, while Zain, Johanna and Emily graduated from Hindi & Development. Johanna and Emily deal with the issues of child labour and do a lot of work in Kolkata at an NGO which picks up kids from Howrah Station and takes care of them, while trying to find their own families or foster care. Zain deals with AIDS in India.
And here is a joyful and long awaited moment! I have missed my own graduation ceremony, hence I am relishing the photos. Can you play frizzby with these hats? I am back in India, recharging my energy for a bit more academic work out ahead of me. In October I am due to go back to London to start MA in Religion, where I will continue with Hindi and also learn Urdu. Blessings please!
