School is such a wonderful place for anyone to explore a lot of new opportunities, make friends, learn discipline, play around and have fun. Schooling was a great experience, and all thanks to the awesome teachers who put in a lot of efforts in bringing us up.
Teachers are the only people on the planet who want us to grow , explore and become successful.
I was good in studies when I did my schooling and was very much interested in subjects like maths , science (biology), geography and my most favourite subject was history. I used to love all the stories related to Indian freedom, the world wars and all about Indian history and culture.
One of the best quality I learnt as a student was honesty. I used to not care what other classmates around me are doing, I was very sincere with regards to my studies.
I made very good friends in school. The break time and the lunch time were the best times because we used to speak to everyone, know about them and have some snacks. Sometimes I used to visit the canteen to buy small stuff to eat.
Whenever I think of my school days I have a great smile on my face. I miss every single thing of my school.
I would like to share a short story about my 10th standard exams. Our final exams were just 2 months away and we were preparing for our mid term exams. Our exams were conducted and our teachers were also very strict. But the students were much ahead of the teachers.
A few students were caught copying continuously during the exams. Later this became a topic to speak upto in the entire school. One fine day our principal entered our classroom. As a rule we all stood up in respect for her and wished her "Good afternoon". She was in anger and her face was filled with so much of tension. She yelled at the entire classroom about copying in the exams. She also yelled at the teachers giving them strict instructions about the next exams.
Our principal madam asked everyone to be honest and reveal it if they have copied in the exams. All of us were quiet in the beginning. She opened her eyes wide and yelled out louder.
She asked those students to remain standing who have copied in the exams and asked those students to sit down who have not copied at all.
A surprise was awaiting for her that was going to break her heart. Hardly 10 or 12 students sat down calmly. The rest kept standing. She said "I wish I could kill myself before I saw this disaster".
I am proud to reveal that I was one among those 12 students who did not copy at all. I had no fear of failure and no fear of scoring low marks in exams. For me, being guilt free was the priority. Everyone in the class could not make eye contact with the principal.
She made them feel so disgusting. She left the classroom with a disappointed face. Students ran behind her to console her and ask for her forgiveness. She shouted out on the top of her voice and said " You have cheated yourself and not me".
Later final exams were conducted and all the students passed out. I choose commerce background with an extra subject.
