Good 'Ol Days
Have you guys ever gone back? I mean those of you who are in your last years of high school and even college. Have you ever gone back to where everything began?I did lol.
This picture is of my Elementary School. Good Ol' C.L. Smith Elementary In SLO California.
Last week I went back to see if any of my teachers were there. None. But I walked around and it's amazing you know. Everything that seemed huge is just so small now.
My best friend, Anna and I went to the bathroom where we use to call on 'Bloody Mary." and I swear it felt like that ceiling was going to cave in. And this is the Sixth Grade girls bathroom! It use to be so big!!! I remember I coundn't even see myself in the mirror cause I was so short...now I can't see myself cause I'm too tall! lol.
On one day that I went with Anna, I did get to see my Forth Grade teacher Mrs. Foote. God, she was...IS my favorite teacher. If anyone asks what I miss most about Elementary school, my imediate answer would probally be Mrs. Foote. She was such a great teachter. Pushed me to do my best.
You know when I was in Elementary I HATED writing. I swear! I despised it. Anytime a teacher assigned a writing paper the first groan would be from me! I hated it, only because I wasn't able to put my ideas on paper, I had a big problem with that.
So when I told Mrs. Foote(who was also my writing teacher 2-3 grade) that I wrote Fanfic as a hobby and that I had more then ten stories written and posted and not only that but I might want to study it in collage. She was amazed. It's so great to know that this person that had such an impact on my life could be so proud of me to this day! She said she was going to check out my stories...I'm just hoping she doesn't read that ones with my attempt with writing sex...cause well enough said lol.
Anna and I also went down to the Kindergarden playground, much to the insistence of Mrs. Foote and OMG! I remember that the slide use to be huge!!!!! Now I can reach the top of it without even having to get on my tip toes!
It is so amazing! To go back, after years of not going there, and seeing how much YOU'VE changed. Cause the school doesn't change. The teachers might change rooms, or the grades they teach. But the school itself and the atomshphere and the feeling you had when you went there! It just never changes.
I'm so glad that I had such a good school. Lots of people say it's crap. But seeing as they didn't go there, hang out with the people I hung out with or experinced lunch in the ballroom well...then you have no right to say it. Then again, I guess we're all a little biased about our Elementary schools.
So here's what I suggest you all do! If you're in middle school it probally won't have the same affect seeing as you've probally just got out of the place. But Juniers and Seniors in high school and College students. Even Grads!
I urge you, to go back. If not to visit teachers that might have affected you, then to just look and see if your name is still where you wrote it in the fourth grade on a dare. Or if you still fit under the slide! Go! It is amazing!
At least for me it was. Who knows, maybe it'll be the same for you!

So that's it for now!
Remember at least drive by your old school! Just to see if you still get the same feeling!
