Bring Back The Uniforms!
My school memories have been conspicuous by their absence in this space.They have been missing not because of paucity of them but the surfeit of them leading to doubts as to decide which experience to choose.
Of late,I have been getting strange dreams.Regularly.I visualise all my college friends sitting and listening to our tutor's lecture.But the twist is that all this is happening in my school campus.Sridhar and Sudharsanam in my school uniform.My tutor signing in my school's attendance register.PSG Tech ECE classes in the backdrop of Bala Barathi Hr.Sec.School.But why?Maybe am realising that am missing my school days badly.(Who doesn't?).Everyday in college passes painfully with worries about the future.It was not the case in those school days when even a week before the 12th std public exams,I was writing critical reviews of movies in my personal diary.
The school uniform days remain the most colorful.PSG Tech life-inspite of Industrial Visits,late night Coimbatore trips,Kodaikonal trips,late night phone calls,SU nights in the college,event organising experiences,friendship with intellectuals and whatnot-will come nowhere near to those heady days when I was with Partiban,Sabari,Nandha et al.I need to do justice to those divinely days and heavenly friends by posting on them sometime after my horrendous semester exams get over and make sure that Partiban comes in my dreams instead of Sridhar.
P.S 1:There is an annoying Bharadwaj song called "Meendum palliku pogalam" which I used to hate.It would be no surprise if I say that it has become my favorite of late.
P.S 2:Shanmuga Priya remains the last remaining link between my blissful school days and burdensome college days.
