What was school like to you?
Did you changed for the better- or worse?
Did you wish you didn't go to school?
Did you have favorite teachers and some despicable friends?
That makes the two of us.
I had schooling at public schools, both of them situated pretty near to my house. I guess you can say that school was pretty awesome, but there were times that weren't. I've been through my highest and lowest during my schooldays- and I've had friends as back up; and friends that stab my back. In a nutshell, school was cool though it took some tears out of me, to be frank.
My childhood memories are pretty vague, and not what you can call solid evidence if tried in court. No way we are talking about History or Add Math, God forbid. These are the top five things that summed up the 'life lessons' (School Version) that I've picked up along the way.
5 THINGS I LEARNED IN SCHOOL
1. Making fun of yourself is okay. In fact, it's one of the best way to loose up under the study marathon. I remembered when I used to be ashamed and blushed when I answered a question wrong. You are human. Simple mistakes are OK.
2. Be careful who you are friends with. Friendships are worth fighting for. Along the way you are to encounter people from all walks of life. I had someone worth calling a best friend for 4 years. The best four years of school life. Thank you, mon ami.
"Friends listen to your bad days and times. BEST FRIENDS live it with you,"3. Academic isn't everything. Sports isn't everthing. Socializing isn't everything. Everything is the perfect balanced of every facets that come with being a student. You need academic, sport, socialising and everything else.
4. Respect. You need to respect to be respected. No matter to the juniors, teachers, not so smart kids and even the janitor. Throw out that sense of biased. You are a student fgs.
5. Serious. You need to learn when to be serious. When Mid Term is around the corner, because your parents will have the report cards, when you are taking a big exam on that year, or when the cafeteria decided to raise up the price on food and beverages. That's no joke.
School was pretty fun, wasn't it? Even I broke into a lab, and I was a prefect for 9 years. Go on, cringe on the times you made a fool out of yourself, and enjoy the times that YOU made yourself proud. Hopefully no bad dreams tonight.
Sweet Dreams.
