Candid moments

School days.....Wonderful memories...Some not so goood and some downright incredible..That glorious journey would be the journey of the lifetime and nothing could match up to it..Not even a world tour...For the world tour would give m the beauty of the world while the school journey gave me the insight into the myriad shapes and forms of human follies and foibles...And the best part of it is that it was done in innocence that those follies at some part of time becomes the most hilarious moments to be reminiscenced about later.. There are various such incidents I could account for...The countless times I have banged into Mrs.Chaudhri( A strict teacher whose glares would make me tremble...its like u would say my goosebumps got goosebumps)...Then in her high baritones voice she would say..Khushboo dear please watch where your going...I would just about manage to say a sorry ma'am and dash away...Putting as much distance between us..Only to bang into some unfortunate soul once again..That's my story...Banging into people was my favourite pass time...I was always in a hurry don't know why...

My famous slap episode with Kulsum when we were in the first standard...I don't know why I could never stand her...Childish prejudices I suppose...But you its amazing...I never even remembered that I had slapped her until she reminded me of it...And I was feeling so nice...Feel-good-factor(Ahhh...here comes out the bitch in me...)Then my famous fiasco with a maths teacher of mine...Its what I call Mutual Dislike...I could not stand her...She could not stand me...She was opposite everything I stood for as correct...She bad-mouthed a person whom I considered a very nice friend...Welll I guess she got to know that loyalty to friends is what I stand for...We used to have such a gala time bitching about her and her accent...Example was actually pronounced as Examble....her dressing sense...My gosh....But then again I guess the "examble" she set upon me was so horrible...I disliked maths since then...

I think my favourite teacher till ate has been Mrs.Kundu...My maths teacher in the senior section...She was the sole reason why I started enjoying maths again...I was not good at it(well good is an understatement...I was just a little shade better than bad)..She was someone you could look upto...Whole load of fun...Jolly smile...That brilliant sarcastic tongue which could rip your confdence to shreds with a smiling face...It was brilliant...And the best was to see her having a go at students she knew were the troublemakers...An incredible sight...Must Watch.,...
Well talking about Mrs.Kundu gave me another reminder...Ohh we were doing trigo..( I hated the sin's and the cos's I swear it)...We were discussing the formula for the inverse's...And lo behold...We have this very special new formula brought about by a very special favourite of ma'am...The sec suddenly sex.,...The class is rolling on the floor laughing...And ma'am shoots out of the class not knowing where to look to have a hearty laugh herself I think...Brilliant...That scene it still so clearly etched on my mind...God..!!

Then ofcourse dear old paratha face..My new hindi teacher...Perfectly annoying with that flat face of hers but still Ok...Not much of a brilliant teacher except she used words in Hindi which sounded like sanskrit to me...I don't know who was more shocked after seeing my ISC hindi marks...She or Me...LOL

Anyways...School life's not always fun...The last day was terrible...Tears and hugs and miss you's everywhere....That 14 year of my life were the best parts...I found the most awesome friends...Made some enemies but most importantly...Shaped me as a person...
