Today...I was 16 again

today...was off to some place around noon, coming back my eyes landed up on 3 kids...clad in yellow shirt, Greg shorts....with a bottle of water around the neck,...they had SMHS logo on it.... 


They were just out from school...my school...it was a sign that I had to pay a visit....contemplated fr a few seconds...turned my bike around...and there I was inside the school lobby...

Asked fr few teachers, went up, thru those corridors, saw Anette Mme sitting across the room, the minute she saw me, she had a big smile on her face!!! With a very very warm welcome she greeted me....we started talking about everything....
so many things to talk abt so many topics started coming up, then arrived Shiela Mme, and Ucchil Mme and suddenly Chintamani sir, it was glorious! They all remm. Me!! I was proud....

We walked towards the staff room, met Sunanda Mme, slowly Bela Mme came out there...we chatted abt. the good old days, the mischief, the punishments the wodden foot-ruler whacks on the back...

I Asked abt all the professors/teachers and they asked me abt all of my batchmates....

They clearly remm. Some of them, and some they drew a blank on, some they were curious to know what they were upto....over all they said they really are always happy to see us all, or even one of us..... I guess it reminds them of their good old times too....

Showed them the whatsapp grp. Shared some good old memories of mine with them, shared some little whereabouts of those who I knew at the moment....

Having spent that 1-1.5 hrs at school was magical....

walking down the memory lane...where suddenly u feel tall when I looked at the benches and desks...but very very small when I looked at the teachers and got the flash backs of those days....

Lots has changed, lots have left....and then again, lots is still the same, where ever it was, however it was, its still there......depends what u are looking for.... :-)

Most who taught us, have left the school, but some r still there...
when i was there...i wasnt alone...all of my batchmates were with me...i lived a moment 15-18 yrs, ago...and it was awesome...not 'coz i was awesome back then...it was 'coz all my friends were awesome and they kept poppin in my head one after the other everytime i looked around a corridoor, 









everytime i took the stairs to go to a diff. floor, everytime i peeked into an ongoing class there was one of them...tagging me, one of them chasing me running with me..........

my heart was filled with joy and gratitude am sure yours will too if u decide to stop by our temple of knowledge, our alma-mater....
.....


Ladakpankaa...go pehla pyaar....vo likhna haathon par H + __ ;)
Vo khidki she jhaankna, 
Pohochna school mein hamensha late...
Vo kehna patel sirka -get out from the class - kaakraaach!!

Vo bahar jaake hamensha kehna - Sala apna school hi Hai kharab
Vo jaake canteen se vadapaav uthana 
Vo Karna tiffin box share

Vo dil mein sochna, karke much dikha de
Vo Karna planning roj nai year

Vo exam me baad bhatakte char jaana, amboli se nahi, veera desai se yaar
Aisaa yaadon ka mausam chala....
Bhulta hi nahi dil ye mera....

Puraani jeans....aur guitar....apne school kids vo imarat....aur sare dost - yaar......
