Mystory@Hina Gupta: How I made the most of my college years

First, I would like to thank my mentors for guiding me. I am very grateful to my dean for his support. I have completed a one year BEd course from Galgotia University.

My undergraduate years were full of learning. My attendance was 100% during this period. Every day started with a new thing. I was meeting so many different people. Sometimes, so much action was hard to manage. But, at last, I succeeded somehow in managing all these multiple fronts.

I participated in each and every competition. I got 1^st prize in the speech competition. I was also awarded the bronze medal in 200 meters race. In the subsequent year, I secured the second prize in the speech competition and the second prize in the essay competition.

On my farewell day, I was selected for the 'Student Of The Year' award on the basis of the following parameters: class attendance, academic excellence, co-operation with mentors and behaviour with peers. I also received the 100% attendance award! On my convocation day, I was awarded with a medal for securing the highest marks by the Director General Police of Uttar Pradesh, Shri Javeed Ahmed. That was one proud moment for me. It was not always easy for me to be in events and extracurricular activities always. In fact, there were some controversies as well, about which I would not like to go into details. But, through it all, my will was strong and I had the guts to move ahead even in adverse circumstances.

 I am bold and never feel let down and these, I would like to acknowledge as my key qualities. I also learnt many things from my hostel life. Survival is necessary. There were people with different backgrounds and different attitudes. I handled them all. Sometimes situations have worsened but once you learn the mantra of managing such situations, there are no further problems. I have learnt that while keeping a friendly behaviour is good, becoming over friendly only gets you in trouble. Always help people but in limits, since they are very likely to take you for granted. I always believe in honesty and hard work. These are the key essentials of my life. I am a very straight forward girl who has always had a desire to learn something new. Even a small child can teach us.

Always live like a flower who spreads its fragrance everywhere without any question and next day it fades away without regrets. If you have a passion to do something, nobody can let you down. Always have charismatic personality and visionary attitude and sophisticated behaviour. These are the things that makes you different from others. In order to be successful always believe in yourself and be confident as well as honest with your work.
