Primary

  Today I'm writing about a huge change that has probably (Definitely) changed my whole life.


School might not be my most favourite thing to do, but it's something I like doing. Mainly because I can be around the company of my friends. My school has 3 blocks - Kindergarten, Primary, and Middle School/High School. My most favourite block of my school is the Primary block, where it is vibrant with colours, bright with light and punctuated by the cheers of children.


Kindergarten is cool too, but Primary is better as it balances ages. It is both bright and serious - but not as serious as you'd think.


The Middle School/High School block is DEFINETELY the gloomiest block I've ever been to. It's not as bright as Primary, but actually, it's not even bright at all. But that's just the outside of it. The inside is pretty cool, with teachers of all kinds, and much more opportunities than that of Primary.


But Primary has its own unique sort of popularity. In first grade, you get to do whatever you wish, with a pinch of seriousness added to it. It's colourful, bright and cheerful there, along with the happy squeals and sounds of playful children.


Second grade is where you have loads of fun, but study along with that too. But obviously, fun is more there too! 


Third grade balances both studies and fun equally. It's like you're people who have the most fun in the whole world, but you also have to maintain your smart brain. But nevertheless, the place has a cheerful atmosphere.


Fourth grade is the first step to having more study time than play. You might have to work harder than usual, but still, the joy and exhilarated aura never leaves.


Fifth grade might be my favourite. Yes, it's the final grade of Primary, and it might involve loads and loads of studying, but still, for me, it felt like home. When you study, the Sun's invitation to come play lingers in the air. Once you've worked hard, you're rewarded with time to roam and run and relax, and have fun on the whole. 


And Fridays are super special in Primary (and KG), since you get to wear colourful outfits on that day. The block errupts with vibrant hues and shades of different colours. 


In Middle School, you aren't allowed to wear coloured outfits. And leisure time is considerably and very less. But it also has its own perks, like, you have access to the whole campus (excluding a few rooms restricted to the staff). You can take part in fun club activities, and during PT, you can use better and more equipment.


But let me just say that Middle School didn't win.


Today, I visited the Primary block, and it felt like I was part of it again. It was bright, with freshly painted walls, and each classroom emitting joyful vibes, each staffroom giving an irresistible invitation, each teacher flashing warm smiles, each corridor with playful trouble and adventures waiting. I was half thinking not to leave! But somehow, my friends pulled me back to my classroom.


Maybe Middle School does have lots more for me, and I haven't just seen it yet. So you all must be thinking, "Don't jump to conclusions!" But I'm afraid I might have to. I don't think I'll ever ever EVER change my mind that Primary is the best block in the whole school.

So Close, Yet So Far

  What you knew you had right beside you What you never knew might leave you What you had neglected for days What you wished was still there, within your gaze. That miniscule amount of hope  That you feel lingering close by You could open out your arms, embrace it, But suddenly it's high in the sky. Once within your grasp, But now away from you, Don't waste a moment on a wee gasp, Time won't stop, and the moving hope too. Each moment is to be caught, Each memory to be cherished, Hold them carefully in your arms, Before they shall vanish. The consistent inkling when you feel, Something close, yet so far, Is only because you know yourself, That it is within your grasp, but not within your confidence. If you're positive enough that you can hold it, The 'it' that is mysterious and something only you know, You can hold the precious 'it', Clutch it tight, don't let it go. You must be close to the end of the day, With its cliffs and slopes and Rocky slides,...

Stars

  Shining in the vast night sky, I see them from afar. Dominated by the brighter moon, There glimmer the stars. Mostly hidden by the cruel shadows, Or by the thick, misty clouds. But they do not give up, they still glimmer on, They make their voice be heard loud. Even though they're hardly seen, Even though they're hardly thought of, They know that someday they will be, Thought of, honoured and loved. So take an inspiration from stars, Show your true essence, Continue to shimmer, ignore the darkness, Because one day it'll fear your presence. 

Laughter and Smiles

  Are you feeling sad,  Are you feeling low? Do you wish to fly like a bird, But can't do so? Do you wish to swim like a dolphin, But can't do it just yet? Do you wish to be free of worries, But your unbreakable bond with it is set? Are you surrounded by shadows, That smother you till you drop? Are you getting pulled into a black hole, Your worries eat you, and you can't stop? Or perhaps you're scared, Of the dark and doom surrounding you, You feel like it's closing in,   And there's nothing you can do. You're lost in a land of confusion,  Where things are tangled together, Just like your poor mind, Which is in a messy weather. But let me tell you what to do, To beat up all your worries, There's no problem that can't be undone, We'll chase it all away in a flurry. Has it been weeks, Since your lips curled into a smile? Has it been weeks,  Since you used to laugh all the while? Why, you can do it now too! Does there have to be a reason to smile? B...
