My prized possessions,
I have saved and maintained them till today. The small cupboard ,I grew up seeing it in our kitchen, as a small child. Ma would store milk, and other items in it. It had a wire mesh then, now replaced by the red sunmica. I store some odds and ends now,
The yellow stool was my writing desk.I used to sit on the mat and do my homework on it.
The Teak table was my dad's Writing Table. They are all more than 73 years old. I don't have the blackboard and the school desk with a slanted top that would open and shut ,up and down, (like TOTO CHAN'S DESK in an English lesson) and chair. Every day, my dad would write my home work on the blackboard.
I remember being fascinated by my desk and chair , exclusively for me. Later on, my mom ,gave it away very generously to someone when I hardly used it. I remember the Matric Magazines that my dad bought for me during my SSC.
We went on our own to search for the numbers and the school during exams, unlike the whole family that comes to school with the child appearing for exams today.
I wish I had my desk chair and blackboard too..
My childhood memories are still fresh in my mind. Nostalgic moments ❤️❤️❤️👍👍
