"...st nicholas our home...we'll always cherish...
the love and beauty you gives us to keep..."
-st nicholas greets you

its almost like travelling back in time
to see ourselves clad in our blue pinafores
and plodding along to class
the screeching of chairs across the floor
the rhythm of chalk scrawling across the blackboard
the struggle to keep my eyelids from closing.
the rush to the canteen at recess time
or when the chime goes for assembly in the morning
and for the end of the school day.
this will always be where my heart belongs.

nice would have to be an understatement.
meeting everyone all over again just sends a burst of joy right through the center of my soul.
st nicks teachers are the most un-teacher teachers ever.
and i guess thats what so lovely about them
the fact that they are just as silly gossipy and school girlish as you are.
and its in knowing that they see you just as they are-
one part of the family.
i never realised how much i missed everything till today.

it could have been a scene straight out of a movie
our eyes locked across the room
through a sea of people
and at that moment my mind when blank.

no its not the story of love at first sight
and no.
it does not end happily ever after.
