Am I getting older?

I passed by the schools at Sri Serdang today and was stuck at the road there because it was the end of the morning session school.
While I was there, I was recalled of the days when I was in my school uniforms too.
Well, to me, I didn't think myself as much different to them.
It seems like only few years ago I was wearing that school uniform. Well, my few years to be exact was about 1-2 years ago.
But reality check. I've graduated from my secondary school for 4 years already!
Okay, so now I seemed old.

No wonder my mom could still remember her schooling days.
Those days were awesome.
Things aren't as complicated back then.
Well, the days that I love the most was my primary school days.
Although it may seem the toughest because I was "growing up" fast.

In primary school, it seems that I had 2 lives.
One from earlier years, and the other later years.

I still remember when I was in primary 1 or 2 I used to play by the road sides.
went down to the drain to catch tadpoles.
went to the field to play with sand.
well, field playing wasn't for long since they were under construction soon later to build the second school.
played "teng-teng" or hopscotch, before classes and sometimes after classes if i'm in morning session while waiting for my bus to arrive.
We used to have this sandy path behind the classes where we would draw squares into the sand to begin the game of "teng-teng"

I even remembered how mischievious I was folding a paper boat and leave it float in the drain while it was raining.
Back then, the drainage at school was shallow and the drain water always got over flow or got too high up the drain when it was raining heavily.
Folding a paper boat to float on the water was definitely fun to compete with friends.
We'd compete to see whose boat got to the end of the stream fastest.

It was much easier to make friends back then.
Well, easier to friend-ed a person too.
"I don't want to friend you anymore", that phrase was normal. HAHA..
but days after, we're back to being friends.

My 2nd life began after I manage to pass the PTS test and skipped a year of primary 4.
That time was hard for me to cope with my studies.
Perhaps I wasn't used to it or it was really hard for me to understand the new terms in primary 5.
The good grades I was getting from primary 1 to 3 went down the drain when I was in primary 5.
But I manage to catch up soon later. But that was during primary 6 ):

It was awkward at first that I joined the class whom everyone was elder than me, except for a friend of mine who passed the PTS test too who are in the class as well.
But soon later, I was glad that I was able to make friends and is still friends till now. (:
They really took care of me a lot. I enjoyed every moment when I was with them. Till the extend that I even forgot that I was a year younger.

I really feel like I want to go back to my primary school days.
Back to the don't-know-don't-care days and being mischievious at school.
There's so many sweet and innocent and perhaps naive memories.

Those little memories are coming back to me slowly even the school anthem!

I wonder if my school teacher could still remember me.
I definitely still have their image on my mind till now.
