I think i must first mention that i am writing this on a wet rainy JUNE 1^st evening. I had my lab exams today morning and as a student u would be well aware that an exam is not one of those things u eagerly await. I dragged myself today morning to college i had the one of the best rides through the usually monotonous roads(unless of course the occasional sightings of a species on the rise... good looking girls). Today, it was an entirely different experience for me.

As is already mentioned, it was 1^st of june. The school reopening day!! All along the road there were little toddlers scurrying around. They were all in brightly coloured dresses and sure were eager to show them off . It was indeed a sight to seem them walking gleefully in groups laughing while i in my dumb old uniform scurried along with a frown on my face.

The sight of the kids going to school was indeed refreshing as some raced each other while some were talking away to glory and yet some others were walking hand in hand admiring the world around them. Here i would like to state emphatically indeed this made me forget about the impending lab exam. This brought back glorious memories from my own past and the numerous anecdotes. Well,for those of who are frowning can give it a rest since i am not going into any nostalgic mode and rant my life stories. What i wanted to convey was the freshness and the joy that this scene brought me even though i have witnessed it quite a number of times. The wonderful innocent smile, the happiness on their face which was a clear indication of the eagerness they had to welcome this new beginning was all so conductive that i couldn’t but smile.

The scene was no different around the city as children happily made their way to school in the company of friends and parents. The whole loads of glistening new uniforms were indeed a sight to stand and watch, but time was not so cooperative and i had a blind date with an unknown lab examiner.

So there i was.. stuck up in traffic watching all those kids having the time of their life while i kept staring with a ton of mixed emotions welling up inside me.. bygones will be bygones they say.. and they are so right....
