Dear Diary:
I felt so patriotic today during the Republic Day
Celebrations at school today. Though we celebrated it one day in advance as
tomorrow is Sunday, yet we celebrated it with complete fervor. The entire
school assembled at the ground. The principal hoisted the Tricolor. The
national anthem echoed in the entire campus. After the anthem there was
class-wise march past. Students marched in contingents to the beat of drum
while the principal presided over it. After the march past, one act play
highlighting the hanging of Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Sukhdev brought tears to
everyone’s eyes. The group song ‘Ai Mere Vatan Ke Logo’ filled everyone with
pure patriotism. At the end, the Chairman gave a speech reminding the students
and the teachers of the sacrifices made by our great freedom fighters and made
us take pledge that we will serve our motherland, India with heart, body, and
soul to bring it glory and laurels with our dignified deeds. I was surcharged
with intense feelings of patriotism to do something for my country. I felt so proud
of the self-effacing freedom fighters who happily laid their lives for the
freedom and betterment of our country. At the end the students were distributed
sweets. I really had a great time!
Jai Hind.
