Hey everyone, a quick check-in. How are we doing on those New Year's resolutions? [laughter] Don't worry, save space. Mine was learning Spanish this year. Well, that's about all I've got right now. I'm a student here and my name is Stephanie Sanz and today I'm going to take you on a journey and not throughout the world but through time because time is that one thing that we think we have enough of until we realize that's also the one thing that we cannot get more of. And I wasn't always thinking about time ...

I am an only child of my parents, right? And that's a very unique thing because people around me had brothers and sisters and families. We were a nuclear family back in 1965, eons back, a 19, not a 20. All right. Now, as we stayed, Ma Baba and me, um, I went to my first school.

[applause] It was that time of the year again, the family gathering. The dining table stretched endlessly, heavy with food and heavier still with the weight of so many of those familiar faces, all pressed together in one room. At one end, my grandfather began his impassion lecture on test cricket's history, insisting that no modern batsman can ever replicate the patience and the technique of the golden era greats. He spoke with even more fervor as the India England series play on television using every sing ...

[applause] Have you ever heard of the word sder. For me, I take it more like an experience.
