Some Memories In Highschool
I've been missing the coolest environment that my highschool and university college has. Both of the school locations are near in the forest which makes the surroundings refreshing as it has a lot of trees, grass and a little plot for gardening. It is close to nature that is why I like it, unlike schools in the cities that only had tall buildings.
I first visited my Highschool school, I went in there alone. The school surroundings improved a lot compared to before when I was still a student in there.
It was noontime when I got there, I just bought junk food and soda then I went to the where I used to spent my lunch time when I was still a student. It has a lot of big stones, big star apple trees and mango tree. I stayed for a while feeling the relaxation as the cool breeze soothing my soul. I took some portrait shot with myself with several shots.
There are a lot of students in the classroom building already as the face to face slowly implemented. While I am relaxing, some boys came to my spot.. they're getting some mango fruit, they're annoying coz they're so noisy.
Then middle age man came with his children and he's teasing the boys that they just wanted to catch my attention, the man trying to talk to me.. I was annoyed, they ruined the peace and solidarity that I am feeling so I just left.
They're interrupting my mood which I am feeling that I am a goddess visited Earth and choose the rocky place, lmao.
While I roamed around I see new buildings that was not around before, the school has expanded a lot. There are also some garden's that was not around before.
I missed the feeling of being a student, the youthful years I had in the school is also remarkable and unforgettable despite that I faced a lot of struggles back then. Well I don't have much exciting that happens when I was highschool but I enjoyed it, I mean as usual sleeping during class time if I want.
I was still naive when I was at my first year, a good student that some must say but when I reached my third my behavior starting to change. From naive to bold, that was the time I started sleeping during class time whenever I want even if the teacher is terror. I remember my Math teacher caught me sleeping as she was finding some volunteers to solve the equation she provided on the board.
My classmates pointed me, because they thought I am good at Math.. then they found out I was sleeping. My teacher scolded me and I was like,
“Uhmm.. my head hurts, I have headache Ma'am, I'm sorry.” while I keep pressing my head as if I'm really having headache. The teacher believed me and said it's fine that I fall asleep and she's gonna find another one to solve the last problem.
“No Ma'am, I'll solve the problem” I volunteered just to show as if I really didn't mean to sleep on her class.
Gladly I know how to solve the problem she gave, I was able to get the explanation she had when I didn't sleep lmao.
My classmates was awed because the Math teacher is really known as terror in the whole campus, as if she's having menstruation everyday. My classmates also called me genius because I was able to answer the equation even if I was just sleeping in the class and didn't fail my exams. Which is I don't think I'm really a genius, I just answered it by luck haha!
Actually sleeping is not just my habit during class time, if I am not sleeping sometimes I just keep texting. I already had a cellphone back then, it was Nokia 3310 and I have a lot of clans in text so I had a lot of fun texting different people via group message. If I am not texting, I will read pocketbook, I just hide it on my notebook as if I am reading my notebook but it was actually the pocketbook inside that I was reading.
Some of classmates knows all of my habits and they find it weird because despite I don't focus on my studies I still belong to the top 10 honors in the class. My class section is sometimes first or second section so most of the top students in the batch are my classmates.
Maybe if I just focus on my studies back then I could be an achiever but I didn't dared to do it, it's because school became the outlet of my frustrations in life. Even if I wanted to participate in all of the curricular activities in the class I didn't dared to because I know it needs financial support and moral supports from parents which is impossible for me because my mother doesn't even want me to study before because we are really poor.
Instead of focusing on academics, I just focus on the things that can entertain me. Things that helps me escape my reality for a moment, those are sleeping, texting, reading pocketbooks and sometimes escaping from the class.
When I was an elementary I used to be serious and all, but nobody is supporting me morally much more financially that's why I didn't try hard anymore. I was one of the top student when I was elementary not valedictorian or salutatorian though because I also had a lot of absent back then as sometimes my mother let me absent to help working in the farm. Despite that my mother wasn't proud and happy for me, so why try harder?
So that's how I behave when I was highschool. Studying became a temporary escape of my miserable reality.
