Oh my Old School! I saw this pic in FB and I was so happy to see my humble school wayback when I was in High School. As the name implies, I studied in Sindangan National High School, a small town in Zamboanga del Norte.
It was 10 years ago, and I know my life had been through a "major-major" detour already.
Anyhow, looking back to the past is not a bad idea. Actually, it would make you feel more fulfilled, knowing that after all, you have gone this far! I was staring at the picture and every memory flashes back, like the windows on the second floor were the places I used to hang out, the small building on the left side was our music calssroom and we had a little garden where I used to make chika with my friends.
Before I forget, by the way, this is only the building for academically accelerated, I mean, for the class A students. Oh well, proud to say that i was one of the good students back then. (woohhoooo! good girl eh)
My life was so simple back then. No technology at all! I have lived without knowing how to use the computer, no mobile phones, no social networks. I have lived! Now, I could not imagine if I ever could do that again!
When I was in high school, I never felt loneliness or being not contented with my life. I never felt my loss, not until I have spread my wings and discovered the world of today.
Upon seeing this picture of the past, I realized that happiness comes when you are not looking for something more, just because you are contented of what you have.... well, no matter humble and simple my high school has been, I never regret the day I studied in this school which made me one of the best students in college (academically), the one who nailed the board exams, and now, a great person who appreciates every little thing that happens everyday. Thank you, SNHS! You are still my living legend!
