This Teacher Day reminded my
Old school days. I saw the excitement of my 3 years old nephew who started
going to school few months ago. Even we were full of enthusiasm on such occasion.
The activities we used to do 2-3 days before -Preparing Cards using all the creativity
sense one can have, selecting gifts, small bunch of flowers. Although plucking
flowers for teachers from others garden was the regular activity, I tell you it
was fun ;) .
It was normal feeling of
every school going kids that “oohh Nooo not again ,tomorrow is school “ !!! Hate
rising early, it was better if we were of our Papa’s age going to office at 10am.
Later on in life realized that being kid has more benefits.
I remember my Geography
Teacher Mrs. Iyer a south Indian was
very cool nature lady, loosely tied Hair with red rose bud tucked in her hair
band. We all used to cheers when she enters into the class with long Good
afternoon .Last I heard she went back to her home in Chennai.
My literature Teacher Miss Jyotika was very
beautiful short height .She had long straight hair always spread on her
shoulders. She died early due to illness after marriage. Really missed them .My all others subject teachers have really indeed played a very
important role in shaping what I am today.
No Tension, No worries Nothing
…. It was carefree days J
.Fun Periods were PT, Drawing, Singing, and of course the friends. The concept
of Best Friend was like life cannot be without friends. Silly fights on School
bus for window seat J . Participating in Dance
for Annual day functions are some of the memorable moments. I do not know
whether nowadays school children play these Games or not which we used to play
Kabaddi, Kho Kho, Hide & Seek poshampa bhai poshampa, Denga Pani, Chore
Sipahi, What color What Color you have?
Reading books & Comics
was also a habit in those days. Amar Chitra Katha, Chacha Choudhary, Nandan, The
Adventures of TinTin, Phantom & Khilona (In Urdu) . I love the craft class.
Learning to play with needle and thread & making different stiches was fun,
till today this is my favorite pass time. Today’s Kids are more into playing
Video Games, watching Cartoons. Really Childhood is the Golden era of
Life.
