As my phase 1 training came to an end, I tried to summarise my journey at lbsnaa.. Initially filled with apprehensions about the people and the place, we soon discovered that it was where we found the most comfort. What started as mere acquaintances blossomed into friendships that evolved into our cherished LBSNAA family🥹💗. We marveled at the best infrastructure around us, gradually realizing its immense value as our time at the academy came to an end.

N-304, witnessed our shared moments of joy, laughter, love, and self-discovery. From late night games to heartfelt conversations, from pampering sessions to crying sessions, it captured the essence of our journey.

Our days were marked by early morning PT sessions, with occasional nods of sleep in classes amidst moments of utmost attentiveness😆. We immersed ourselves in exploring various sports and enthusiastically participated in tournaments, each competition strengthening our bonds.

Venturing beyond the academy, we wandered through the bustling streets of Mall Road, finding solace in togetherness during late-night gatherings in our hostels. Every laughter-filled conversation, every shared meal, every stroll under the stars—we truly lived and breathed LBSNAA.

As we bid farewell, we carry with us a treasure trove of memories, a testament to the love, camaraderie, and growth we experienced together. Our time at LBSNAA was not just a chapter in our lives but a defining journey that shaped us into who we are today. 💖🏫 #LBSNAAFamily #MemoriesMade #UnforgettableJourney

Looking back on last year's life changing results, I realized what I gained and lost. I got a job, but the real win was finding my lifelong friends in the HCS and LBSNAA families. Losing some close bonds definitely hurt, but I have always learnt it's all about people, not things.

Congrats to the ones who found their names in holy pdf, and good luck to those trying again or doing something new. Everything will work out fine.
Stay positive and hopeful 💗
