Vivek Lal
Vivs i met in class 9 almost as soon as i joined Somerville . We've been friends ever since . And really good ones at that . He and I talk about anything and everything . I think he knows a more about me than most people and it's the same the other way around . We know each others weaknesses and strengths . We share this mutual acceptance of the other as a whole including the bad part and the good part . Le me explain.... vivek knows i'm hopeless at saying no . Even when i know i can't do something i still agree to doing it and get into trouble because of that . He knows this pretty well through from experience but he's never ever brought it up . We just accept each other as we are . Very mature according to me .
Notes on Vivek
Vivek is a go-getter . This guy doesn't believe in luck . He sees something and goes and gets it . He's been that way ever since i've known him . I mean he's been working somewhere or the other ever since i've heard of him . He's been very independent all his life and i think he cherishes that . He's also a person who has a lot of public skills . He's initiated countless projects . I remember his efforts for the Somerville Reunion.... to the alumni group . He's always been leading the way in all these events . I've always had the idea of a reunion but he's the one who actually did something about it . Thats what i mean go-getter . He's very action oriented . Lots of energy . And he IS informed . Anything under the sun and vivek has an opinion on it .... if not exact facts and statistics . Thats pretty cool eh . And last but not the least..... i've always envied his vocab ..... i can never manage that kinda command on the language . He and Mayank have been the best the school has seen ever . Does anyone disagree ?
