Nostalgia

Since passing out of skool,i've been there quite a few times..initially we cud play freely in skool as passouts..then came some really weird rules..by virtue of which we were even "thrown" out of skool..(gives the khistis)..dunno what exactly made yesterday's visit more special than other times..maybe..we were allowed to roam about the skool freely after a long time..especially after having been kicked out one previous instance..last time i visited skool was for an MBA exam..it was mainly me and gairik..though there were a few seniors..we met a few teachers..but prolly the fact that there werent too many ppl didnt bring that sweet taste in the mouth (which was very much present yesterday)..

yes..there were 14 of us!!! we entered by the bank gate..the guard refused us entry..i dont think he did it to grudgingly..father was roaming abt quite nearby and he was prolly fearful for his job..anyways..kanti went to do the talking..a few magic minutes later,he returned with that excited look with the required permission!!the first change that we noticed was that the water tank at the bank gate end of the badminton court wasnt thr anymore..it had been shifted to the basketball court (near the games room side)..first stop..assembly hall..changes included ramps leading up to the hall whr the spaces are..(the spaces thru which we ran and entered the hall when we were late after the bell rang!!)..thrs a sorta mural on the side whr father addresses the assembly..but thats a bit old..then we moved onto the wonderful field..thr was grass aplenty coz of the summer vacation..harry remarking that we were talking like old guys .."when we were here" and "these guys nowadays dont play football anymore like we used to" and as usual me and kanti got "chorafied"..i tried to climb across the goalpost..but what happened next is..a heavy pendulum started rocking to and fro and fell to the ground!! :P we stayed near the field for sum time..

next stop..class XII classroom..most of us were in class XII-A..so that was the classroom we hung out in.. when we went up to our last classroom in school XII-A..i was a bit late in going up..the other people were already in class..(me,bappa and panda were checking out the Quiz Club notice board :P)..so when i was walking down the corridor, and was infront of XII-C, the people inside the class were all shouting in excitement..it felt THE exact same way..as if it was between periods..one teacher had left the class and we were making full use of the time till the next teacher came in!! :) it felt as if when i wud enter the class, i wud find everyone back in the same way-in their school uniforms, probably devouring sum1's tiffin!! :D i wud prolly rush in to scrape some leftovers!! THAT WAS THE BEST MOMENT!!! also harry started writing names on the board..mine and sagnik's as usual..and tried writing chaddi's who came up and said he wasnt talking and rubbed his own name off!! then i suddenly shouted "father asche father asche" and harry got really afraid and started coming back to his ..i dunno.."desk" prolly !! there was some weird traffic management sheet for class XII signed by Mrs. Nair.. :O p.s. i jhapafied a penchil!!

next we went roaming past the staffroom and the labs..(sagnik being reminded of a certain teacher!!) ..next stop-the classrooms next to the library..where we sat in those small chairs and felt so proud of ourselves..trying to act like kids..harry was super excited!! the library was open for repairs prolly..first instinct was to jhapafy books..prolly that guilt instinct made me lead them away from the place.."jhamela hote pare" bole..the trip sorta ended with a visit to the bathroom!! :D and a drink from the new coolers installed beside the taps on the bank gate and TT room side..kanti me and gairik kicked about a football for some time (borrowed from some locals who were playing basketball)..kanti was disgusted with himslef whenever he cudnt save a shot..and my aim sucked..though the power is still there!! so..in conclusion it was a memorable day..erally memorable..1 June 2010 will be quite memorable for me and a lot of other ppl..those pictures uploaded yesterday being testimony of the very fact!!
