The Good Ol' Days

Everytime I close my eyes and think about 'em, here is what I get....


School : Four Faces. School : March past . School : White and blue.
School : Cool winter dress. School : Neighbours. School : Prayers. School : Grounds . School : Humming . School : Races.

A few instances I can recall.... for now.

The Principal : She was popularly referred to as IAD( Invisible After Dark). To fully appreciate the humor behind this name you have to see her with your own eyes.But a majority of our school was sure she had supernatural powers. You would find her at every corner and in every corridor. And god forbid (!!)anyone put a single toe over the line...well...IAD would turn up. The ventilator was her favorite means of spying on the lot of us(students and teachers both). Had the ventilator not served so many purposes( sneaking out , spying on people outside , ventilating the room in the hot weather..etcetra...etcetra...)

The 'Group': Funny yet true story. The house captain "Premiises" comes up and tells(more appropriately commands) us to attend the council meeting. Confused and wondering what we had done to be this situation we turned up for what later turned out to be a complete waste of time and a huge strain on our vocal chords. Premiises claimed that we were spreading rumors of our group "Aryans" being a gang. Simply Preposterous. The council had enough issues without adding this to their list. After a heated argument we managed to clear the air about a few points. The name 'Aryans' was coined by a girl called Cha***. And she was the one responsible for making it well known that Aryans was not a civilization.

The Guttar : Yeah the 'Guttar' ...favorite hangout. Securing a place at the Guttar (near the junior wing) was the first thing we did everyday during lunch break. Not being able to do so would put us off and we had to eat at another place that did not have the shade , breeze(occasionally) and overall noisy aura that the Guttar offered.

Cho-Cho : Don't know how it came into existence but that is how she was referred to as since times immemorial. I don't remember her ever being called by her real name. She provided way too many laughs, sticks(wouldn't like to elaborate on that ...not very pleasant) and free periods.

There are so many things I would like to talk about but I'll do that at a time when I am nostalgic enough to remember everything(or close to everything).
