Being a Star Student

On Friday, my class was giving compliments to the star student. When no one had any more compliments, it was time to choose next week's Star Student. Miss Nandlal, the teacher, stood up. She held a certificate in one hand. "Next week's Star Student is", she began. I covered my eyes. "A person", Miss Nandlal continued, "who was nice and very cooperative. Next week's Star Student is.......Diya!" Grinning from ear to ear, I took my certificate and walked out of the door. That had been the best moment of my life.
