an emotional journey down the lane

its been just a couple of months that i ve begun my college life and some may feel its too early to start missing your school life.but i really miss them.the memories of my school days especially the last two years sprung up in my mind today morning when my college professor announced a special class tomorrow i.e sunday.i started to recollect the incidents that used to happen those days.you mite mistake me for a bad chap whose dreaming of things in the class instead of listening to the prof..............but no..what do you expect a student to do after he has worked under the sun for 5 hrs. that too cleaning the campus(wondering for the first time ............have we littered the campus so much??).we wernt really in a mood to attend the physics class.half of them gave up the battle and signed in to the wonderful world of dreams.v told the prof. that we wernt really in a situation to attend the class."my body spake ,not I".i told him that my soul was willing but my flesh was weak.he was kind enuf to understand.i was happy but was the happiness short lived.to be precise,till the moment when he announced that there wud be a special class tomorrow(sunday) to compensate today's loss.you wud expect us to sigh and shout and do all sorts of stuffs to persuade the prof to cancel the class.but that didnt happen.infact the class was silent.if u wanna know y,...........go up 6 lines.having made the announcement,the prof. asked us to have rest.suddenly several thoughts came in front of me which reminded of those beautiful days.....indeed beautiful they were.at school we worked 5 days a week.and when our maths sir asked us to come on a saturday,we used to make this hell sort of a noise that is far from any one's imagination.our effort proved succesful most of the times.the rest.........well you know the outcome.i also recollect those days when we used to have a holiday declared for even the slightest of rains and sometimes the met. dept too were helplful.i am also reminded of those "sports day" and "annual day" rehersel days.most of the times,the entire class wud give their names to some event or the other with the reason behind this being "not attending classes" and nothing else.i really had sum gr8 friends there.the memories of the time spent with them ,the pranks,the fun,and not to forget the academics are still fresh in my mind.i also think of the exams which we used to have and this i shud tell you were really exhaustive.the school trip to water parks,medical research centres were all packed with fun and facts.i remember the days when i used to ring up some weak student in my class to ask him whether the prof. has given him some idea of the expected question paper .........or some important questions etc....(no,i havent received any calls.)i also think about the practical hours which we had.they were real fun man.i have always loved practical classes than theory be it phy,chem or bio.the excitement which you get when you have correctly figured out the salt type in the given sample(sometimes you identify the anion correctly and you are too lazy to find the cation).physics practicals have been a bit not interesting(have avoided using the word "boring").i wasnt much interested in finding out the tension of a given string,using a screw gauge to find the diameter of a small wire etc.but there were some interesting times too.bio practicals were awesome buddy.they were like doughnuts to me.yummy!!!.b4 doing practicals,i was under the impression that bio practicals meant only dissection of some poor speechless animal.but now i know its a lot more different and interesting too.i m also reminded of those days when we used to have some celebration in our school and one of the reasons why we liked attending them was the "refreshments" factor.hot samosas(strictly one each),cool drinks and cakes.and we would always stand near some quite aged teacher with dietary restrictions who would be kind enuf to pass on his share to us.i also want to mention about the library.the library was well equipped with a huge collection of books,novels,comics,magazines etc.and when we knew that the library is getting air conditioned......we didnt mind reading the same page for 10 times.and if i dont mention about the post exam atmosphere,it would be sheer injustice.the last day of exam was always special.we used to have a big celebration that day.the good feeling of "all's over" and for some a bitter feeling of "much more to come" dominated our thoughts.and the last day of our 12th class was very very special.cant forget it at all.it was like.........we were all together till this moment.it was now time to seperate.i knew it wud be a very tuff moment but i only prayed that i cud bear it gracefully.when i become a great guy one day,i will surely look back and say atleast"thank you".bcoz i know that all these days were very special to me and the memories are my priced pocessions.i thank god,my parents and teachers and friend for giving me such a beautiful and cherishable school life."memories of those beautiful days,which i hope to carry along,memories of those days which made my life a beautiful song"."so enjoy every moment of ur school life thinking that such moments are very few............coz the lord makes sure that thers a time when u have to bid adieu".
