One request from the whole batch. Please do not scold Rohit so much. We feel bad.

Walking off in a huff

Surabhi is the embodiment of all that is good about law school. Her boundless intellect is only surpassed by her warmth, friendliness and charm. To my lasting regret, I hardly knew her during the first two years of law school. To my lasting shame, once I began to get to know her, I completely underestimated her. Each stellar achievement seemed to come as a surprise to me. This was soon replaced by envy, and then, just wonder. I soon realized how foolish I had been - powering that thousand watt smile was a brain of interplanetary proportions... and vocal chords to match. but i wasn't the only one who was fooled.

You see, for the first 8 years of her life, Surabhi didn't speak at all. Her parents thought she was dumb. Several specialist doctors were called. One of them discovered that Surabhi was a unique specimen. It wasn't that she couldn't speak - she just wasn't moving her arms. 8 years of stored ideas found (a very loud) voice. There was nothing else for it. If the backlog had to be cleared, the arms would have to be freed. THE SLEEVES HAD TO GO!!!

Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math temp directory): Loud Noise + Flailing Arms = Surabhi's on her way.

Her brain, arms and voice all worked in unison. the brain powered the arms, the arms powered the voice, and the brain loved the racket. all three grew from strength to strength. Want proof? Ask Arun Sagar. Poor chap got beaten at Arm Wrestling by a yelling, screaming Surabhi.

Surabhi's done it all in Law School - topping, mooting, debating, charming, drinking. And she hasnt stopped with law school. Rumour has it that she's cleaning out NYU as well. But throughout it all she hasn't stopped being a nice person. If only I could have learnt from her (sooner).
