Dear CiteHR'its,

Gone are the days we loved the most...!
To: U

Gone are the days
When
The school reopened in June,
And we settled in our new desks and
benches.
When we queued up in book depot,
And got our new books
and notes.
When we wanted two Sundays and no Mondays, yet
managed
to line up daily for the morning prayers.
We learnt writing with
slates and pencils, and
Progressed To fountain pens and ball pens and
then
Micro tips.
We began drawing with crayons and evolved
to
Colour pencils and finally sketch pens.
We started calculating
first with tables and then with
Clarke's tables and advanced to
calculators and
computers.
When we chased one another in the
corridors in
Intervals, and returned to the classrooms
Drenched in
sweat.
When we had lunch in classrooms, corridors,
Playgrounds,
under the trees and even in cycle sheds.
When all the colors in the
world,
Decorated the campus on the Second Saturdays.
When a single
P.T. period in the week's Time Table,
Was awaited more eagerly than
the monsoons.
When cricket was played with writing pads as
bats,
And Neckties and socks rolled into balls.
When few played
"kabadi" and "Kho-Kho" in scorching sun,
While others simply played
"book cricket" in the
Confines of classroom.
Of fights but no
conspiracies,
Of Competitions but seldom jealousy.
When we used to
watch Live Cricket telecast,
In the opposite house in Intervals and
Lunch breaks.
When few rushed at 3:45 to
"Conquer" window seats in
our School bus.
While few others had "Big Fun", "peppermint",
"
kulfi", " milk ice !" and "sharbat !" at 4o Clock.
Gone are the days
Of Sports Day,
and the annual School Day ,
And the one-month long
preparations for them.
Gone are the days Of the stressful
Quarterly,
Half Yearly and Annual Exams, And the most
enjoyed
holidays after them.
Of tenth and twelfth standards, when
we
Spent almost the whole year writing revision tests.
We learnt,
we enjoyed, we played, we won, we lost,
We laughed, we cried, we
fought, we thought.
With so much fun in them, so many friends,
So
much experience , all this and more.
Gone are the days when we used
to talk for hours with our friends.
Now we don't have time to say a
HI.
Gone are the days when we played games on the road.
Now we
code on the road with laptop.
Gone are the days when we saw stars
shining at night.
Now we see stars when our code doesn't
work.
Gone are the days when we sat to chat with friends on
grounds.
Now we chat in chat rooms.....
Gone are the days where we
studied just to pass.
Now we study to save our job
Gone are the
days where we had no money in our pockets and fun filled
on our
hearts
Now we have the atm as well as credit card but with an empty
heart
Gone are the days where we shouted on the road.
Now we dont
shout even at home
Gone are the days where we got lectures from
all.
Now we give lectures to all... like the one I'm doing
now....
Gone are the days
But not the memories, which will
be
Lingering in our hearts for ever and ever and
Ever and ever and
Ever .....
NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU ARE ,
DONT FORGET TO
LIVE THE LIFE THAT STILL
EXISTS.

Cheers,
Aswath
