A handful of random things I remember from my childhood:

1. Walking back from school with my friend, throwing stones in a naali and throwing sand at each other on the way
2. A friend being a hypocrite and me being surprisingly mature enough (all of 7 back then) to realize that it simply wasn't right
3. Being teacher's pet more often than not :P
4. Being asked (read coerced) by class teacher to tie raakhi to a guy in class this one raksha bandhan because I wasn't tying when all other girls were and because there was this one guy in class to whom no one had tied one. I still remember his name
5. Being teased by the guys in class, called all sorta names, my hairband being taken and tossed amongst the guys :P and being teased in particular with a friend :P
6. Fighting with some of the guys in class, chasing (please do not misunderstand :P) a few in and around class and even around school :P think I even slapped one of them in a fight once :P
7. Having a friend with whom I, ahem, teased someone in class :P
8. Having that someone tease me in return and also offending and being offended by him :P
9. Having more than necessary vivid and good memory of everything :P
10. Getting into a catfight and slapping a classmate, we are both past that now
11. Being a happy, fun loving school kid with lots of friends. . .and that, stays. . . :)

It's interesting as to how time has flown and how many of those who weren't friends are friends now. . . :) and how some others have drifted apart :) I talk only of my childhood ofcourse :) lots has happened after that as well :) all tat, well maybe on another fine day. . . :)
