a walk to remember.

first off all i celebrated teachers day as a teacher :)

now back to the post. the day before teachers day i was taking my lovely walk in the blazing sun. usually i go for a walk between 1-2. but due to some crappy budget work i took the walk around 3. as i was walking i realised that the person coming towards me was my old teacher from stella maris. :) my first reaction was to not ackowledge her. not out of any 'attitude' problems. but the simple reason that i did not think she would remember me. i am one of those average students who do their work dilligently and leave. i am not the naughty one in class neither am i the brilliant soul. i like to blend. standing out isnt exactly top priority so i didnt think she would remember me. and she was the strictest teacher that we had, and we were all scared of her. but we all wanted her approval as well. :P so as i am walking towards her i decide to say hi.

me : hi mam. how are you? do u remember me?

mam: hello! of course i remember you. i tought you for 3 years!

what have you been upto?

me: im teaching now (with big smile)

mam: really? brilliant. and how is it going?

me: very frustrating mam. but a good experience at the same time.

mam: (with her usual ambiguous smile) good good. now you know life on the 'other side'

me: yes mam can see your enjoying my plight.

after this point mam left, and i continued on my walk. but the fact that she remembered who i was has put me on cloud # 9. its quite amazing how the small things make me happy :) that really did make my day.
