That chalk and duster
Accompanied by the blackboard
With which the teachers taught
Even if we were bored
That occasional chattering
Passing secret notes
With worksheets and question papers
Making paper boats
With divider and compass
Sculpting our own masterpiece( on the table!)
Eating food in between classes
With our besties
In the exam hall,
“Psst! What’s question 10?”
And ah, the sword fights
With our beloved pens
Giving our teachers
Funny nicknames
Throwing balls into the dustbin
From our seats, with good aim
Who isn’t familiar,
With this aspect of our lives?
For some it continues
While for some the heart strives…
How many of you relate to this post? The comment section is always open. Thanks for reading and have a good day.š
A sweet throwback, reminiscent of those special days. Nice one, Akshita.

I remember Shamit (Book worm Shamit) was my seat partner, I was the class representative so I had access to move around; Whenever he used to move out of the class in break time or for any other reason, I used to take his stuff and give it to a random person and ask ppl to pass it until it reaches the correct person, BWS used to go crazy after seeing that his Notebook or pencil box has reached Ritikas table…

Oh goodness, this post made me realise how much I missed in 2 years of online classes. You know, there was this one time, we moved all our desks to the wall, in preparation of PTM. And there was this one eraser on the floor in the middle of the classroom and we all played with that eraser. Like 24 people playing football with one eraser. It was so fun. Can never ever forget that. Nice one AK 17!

It reminds me , 1.5 years back there was a time when we went to school ……. opening our tiffins beneath our table , giving teachers nicknames , using a compass to carve our names on the table , and even throwing foils in dustbin and on other studentās head , and sticking chewing gums on the table
And running out from our PT class , those were such good days !!!!!
