Friends

To my insane school gang, 

We are growing up faster than we think and there is nothing we can do to make it stop. But we can always take a walk down the memory lane, right? 

Remember those doodlings at the back of our notebooks during lectures? Scribbling a longer line in our friend's notebook in response of his mistakenly scribbled line was our thing. The days when we would talk so much during class that our teachers would kick us out in almost every other period. We would reflexively say sorry but would happily get out of the class to have a "nice time" outside! The days when we usually talked through hand gestures in examination hall and when we were caught, we would trick the teacher with our Oscar winning expressions! 

Remember the days when we would have our class photograph taken? We would all come neatly dressed with our hair all tied up to look perfect for that one photograph. Our teachers would notify us about it well in advance but then there would always be that one kid whose definition of "well dressed" would be beyond normal! 

And oh, the days when we would ask for a two minute washroom break and come back twenty minutes later with a long campus tour! It's unbelievable how less we cared about getting scolded. I wonder how this golden period of life ended so soon that we are missing it extremely. 

Cheers to all those pen fightings, sharing lunchboxes, copying homeworks and all the good time we shared! 

Love, 

Not so grown up college student.
