A happy trip down memory lane

Oh God, when will I grow up? I hate waking up early and getting ready for school.

Mumma, I’m not feeling good today, can I stay at home.

So much homework today, when there’ll be no burden of study. When will I go to play?

Sorry miss, there are some guest at home yesterday, so I couldn’t complete my project.

Oh my gosh, I’m sure there are zillions of things that jogged your memory when you remember your school days.

I think the schooling phase is one of the best parts of our lives. No matter how much you hated your morning alarms when you look back, there is a tinge of nostalgia.

Whenever I remember my school days, bazillions of beautiful memories pop up, and I started smiling with all my heart. I felt an emotional mixture of longing, embarrassment, joy, and happiness. I was enjoying a life that goes with the flow.

It has been more than a decade, but I still remember every moment. Being queued up in morning assemblies, finding excuses to bunk a boring class, wearing casuals on birthdays, buying new stationery for no reason, school functions, making new friends, fighting over the silliest things, and being punished. Every single moment was as good as gold.

Now, life has changed. We are living a life that has work pressure, tension, responsibilities. No one has time to enjoy their lives as we used to in our schooling days. Everything is moving so fast, and it makes me uncomfortable. But, with passing time, we all settled down, learn how to cope-up with this pressure, and put more effort to fulfill our dreams.

That’s how life changes from a carefree school kid to a responsible young adult. But the joy of school life is countless.🌼
