MELWINA ROYAN

MELWINA ROYAN

My friendship with Ms. Melwina Royan, to whom the forty-sixth post on my blog is dedicated, dates back to the last three years of high school at Indian School Muscat, Oman (namely the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades in the academic years 1997/98, 1998/99 and 1999/2000 respectively).

She is one of the few classmates I am still in touch with after eight years of graduating from high school, thanks to Orkut, and more recently, to Facebook.

Her best feature is her radiant smile. She is a busy human resources professional now.

Known to her close friends as Mel, Ms. Royan is a bubbly, fun-loving girl who has an extremely positive attitude, tremendous enthusiasm and dedication towards everything she does. A hard-worker and perfectionist, she has a very warm, caring and charming personality. If I were to sum it up in a single phrase, she is a gem of a girl.

The ideal candidate for the 'Miss Popular' title, Melwina is a typical Gemini (born on the twenty-sixth day of the month of May). She is adaptable, communicative, witty, versatile, intellectual, eloquent, youthful and lively.

She hails from the city of Bangalore, the capital of the southern Indian state of Karnataka. In fact, when I visited the city earlier this year, I was hoping to meet up with her, but she was out of town on a business trip and it was unfortunate that we couldn't meet up.

Here's wishing her all the very best of luck, happiness and success in all her future endeavours, and hoping we keep in touch.
