Back to school

Went to school the other day, on my birthday.

Always feels good to go back. Lots of memories flood back and the best thing the teachers still remember you :)

Had lunch with them and was witness to an interesting 'Vijayalaxmi teacher style' conversation. Was rolling with laughter. It all began when the teachers were discussing that the 10th class students wanted to spend a night in school. So here's the conversation:

Zainab Ali teacher: Where will they sleep?

Vijayalaxmi teacher: Who is going to sleep?

Zainab Ali teacher: And what about the mosquitoes?

Vijayalaxmi teacher: They will sleep!

I remember the time our batch spent a night in school, we had a bonfire and all. Would love to do that again.

Met Shantathamma, who tried to impress upon me how the work I'm doing isn't significant at all and how I should start a school. How everyone should start a school. I appreciate her advice and concern. Most of all, I am flattered by her confidence in me. Start a school! Not as easy at it sounds, is it?

Hmmm... I miss school. Thank god I can go back whenever I want to.
