With school starting, I started remembering my school days. Do you remember yours? I remember the smell of all of the notebooks, pencils and crayons. I loved walking to school with my friends. I think besides, recess and lunch walking to school is the memory that sticks in my brain the most. What do you remember about your school days?

I always remember the excitement of the first day of school, and all our new school clothes. I loved seeing my friends who I missed over the summer. Back in the day we used to take the bus home for lunch and it was a nice break from the school day. I loved art class, but hated gym class. Taking showers in public, and washing out the plain blue school bathing suits in bleach water in a wringer washer, and lol no I'm not that old. Only 48.These are just a few of my memories.

How did I miss this one? Yes, the smell of new supplies is forever imprinted in me...The excitement of seeing all those kids, that I hadn't seen all summer, almost made me sick. I wondered how much they'd changed? Riding the bus, Black Betty's bus, wow, her stopping in the middle of the road, so we could all see the deer in the field...Leon threatening to kick me off on U.S. St. Rt. 6, yes...ball of fun..those were the days...

You are absolutely right that when there is the season of schools starting, I also think of my school going days. We used to have 3 months summer holidays in this season. So when it was time of going back to school in August, it felt a little strange but the thought of meeting classmates again and enjoying together in the recess time was so exciting. The school age is the golden age in every body's life who he / she will always remember through out his / her life.
