Title: My Magical Journey So Far

Time: 3 - 4 Minutes

---------------

Good morning, everyone! I am Sindhura, and I am excited to step into Grade 7 this June. I feel incredibly blessed to have such wonderful parents—Raguraman and Suganya—who support and guide me every step of the way. I also share my life’s journey with my younger sister Vanathy. Of course, like all siblings, we argue sometimes, but at the end of the day, we are truly loving sisters! One of my greatest joys is being supportive—not just to my family, but also to my friends and relatives. My parents will surely agree that I always try to be a helpful daughter to them! Outside of my school education, I have a deep interest in learning Bharatham, drawing and Hindi. Like many of my friends, I love playing outdoor games in the street and on the playground. I also enjoy indoor games such as chess, carrom, and dice. I feel incredibly fortunate to have a dedicated study space at home. My parents often remind me how many children struggle even for basic education, and hearing such stories makes me truly grateful. What did you have for breakfast today? Pause for a moment I remember my father sharing about a child for whom even chapati was a luxury—it taught me to appreciate everything I have. Most nights, my parents share stories that teach me valuable lessons about life. One of their recent stories really touched my heart. These conversations inspire me and shape my perspective. I also love being on stage—whether it’s giving a speech, performing a skit, or any form of presentation. I believe this is an excellent platform for me to express myself, learn, and grow! My favourite subject is science. Mainly I love interesting facts about heart, even if you ask me to tell now, how the blood flows through the heart to other organs. My ambition is to become a cardiologist. I also like to solve problems in maths. Beyond academics, I also practice Silambam, and I hope to perform for you all someday! Although I live in Chennai, my parents came from small villages, and I have been lucky to visit villages often. Spending time on farms, surrounded by lush greenery, hearing birds chirping, and playing with cows is an unforgettable experience. But the most precious gift of all is the love and affection I receive from my grandparents—it is the purest form of love, and I cherish every moment with them. Thank you all for listening. I am excited about the journey ahead and grateful for all the blessings in my life!
