Raaga, the fact is that you are in school. do you know how good it is to still be in school?
Woken up in the morning by mom and you beg for 5 more minutes of sleep.
Slow trek to the bathroom and you shout for your mom to help you find the toothbrush. (It will most probably be right in front of you, but ur dreary eyes cud never find it)
Quick bath and and quick change into school dress.
Hot idlies doused in splendind sambhar and you dig like crazy into it. (It is the time when you can eat 6 idlies and still feel hungry)
Travel to school in auto where you chat with friends about ur last day’s homework and you also remember that you forgot to get the history workbook. (Never mind, you enjoy the time standing outside the class)
Boredom lasts only 40 minutes and you can always look forward to something different after 40 minutes.
Sleepy assemblies and lively P.T periods.
Lunch time ruckus and shared tiffen boxes.
Exam fever and super vacations.
Killer report cards and boring revision classes.
Dussehra vacation, christmas vacation and annual holidays.
Last minute scramble for holiday assignments…
And you suddenly realize that schooling is over….
It takes many years for the fact to sink in and you start longing for it all over again….
You watch movies on schooling and you smile a secret smile and sometimes shed an invisible tear…
…………………………
