Allah knows when shall I leave this forum.

Successor? Whose successor am I? Whose medal I grabbed?

No one can take anybody's place. I came and I shall leave. No one will be my successor and no one will grab my medals. I earned them so I own them. I have no idea who will be the next in charge.

I am not authorized to do so. I can suggest and make changes here but fate of this forum lies in Admins' hand.

what motivations were behind it.?
Oh please dont exaggerate. I do not have any vast encyclopedic knowledge. Besides, Google is always there.
I am a born leader (I didnt know that till matriculation). I was a shy girl who was too hesitant to talk to a girl even. Crowd used to make me nervous. Out of the blue, my English teacher on the 7th day of my first year made me CR just because in my class I had highest marks in English obtained in matric exams. I was like . How would do it? How would I deal with all those messy and rebellious girls? And she was so indifferent. "You deserved it, you have to do it anyhow". A sash with a badge was provided "You are a Proctor now". Gosh! Gathered courage to make an eye contact with girls; learnt to deal with them and somehow completed my two years of proctorship. I wasnt perfect and confident by then but I was honest. There was no compromise when it came to the rules of the college. But no, it wasnt over. "You did very well and you have to continue", said the Chief, who was also my teacher for English Literature. I continued and was selected to be the Chief Proctor in my last year. First two years girls of the college disliked me for being so strict and last two years more than 75% of the total strength adored me. I call it the Golden Period of my life for I made a difference. That Institute was not like it used to be. I ended up splendidly. I was awarded two awards for being the Best Proctor as well as the "Best Acting Head of Girl Guides" Award. More or less, the same happened here on forum.

So administrative qualities are partially God gifted and partially acquired through experiences. Ability to analyze again is a gift of worst experiences of life.

Zero motivation. Never in my life had I thought about Proctorship, Girl guide, CSS, Forum, Modship, Supermodship. All of these came to me like a shock (seriously) and left me refined and polished.
