Looking\nback at her school yearbook, Trish remembered all the good, bad, embarrassing,\nfun and memorable times that Trish had in high school. It had been 4 years\nsince Trish left her dearly missed high school \u2013 Riverlake High. It just seemed\nlike just yesterday that Trish was roaming the busy hallways, filled with\nstudents from every race, culture and different walks of life. Trish distinctly\nremembered the fresh smell of floor polish that filled the empty hallways when Trish\nwent early to school. Her mother was a full-time nurse, so she had to go to the\nhospital at odd hours. Consequently, on certain days she would drop Trish off\nsuper early to school. It was a pretty good thing that Trish made friends with\nthe friendly and kind-hearted janitor, Bill. Bill was always nice and kind\nenough to let Trish in especially on days like that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trish\nthen thought back about her two best friends, Marilyn and Sam. They were all in\nthe same class and were close ever since high school started. Their meeting\nspot was always at Trish\u2019s locker, directly right next to the female\u2019s washroom\n\u2013 also their secret hide-out in case the discipline teachers or the \u201cpopular\u201d\nkids were within their sight. In every high school, there were always cliques.\nEvery high school has its jocks, nerds, Asians, computer geeks and, of course,\nthe girls who think their existence is essential to the continuation of the\nhuman race, popular girls. Trish smirked just thinking about it. Kayla was the\nso-called leader of the pack who had everything, and I mean anything. She was\nrich, blonde, beautiful and was definitely all guys\u2019 type. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apart\nfrom the popular clique, the teachers totally made an impact on Trish\u2019s life.\nShe had this one teacher named Mr. Twist, who completely changed her\nperspective of life, He taught her History. Although History was one of the\nmost boring subjects, Mr. Twist somehow had the ability to make it fun and\ninteresting without every going off topic. He brought them on field trips but\nnot like the kind of field trips to wat museums and all that, no. He brought to\nthe actual historical sites. Because he was fairly wealthy, helped pay for the\nstudents who could not afford the trips because his policy was that you cant\nlearn history without first seeing where it came from. Because of him, their\nclass aced their examinations with flying colours. Another teacher that made a\ndifference was Ms Valerie. At first she seemed like a strict woman who\nswallowed her feelings but you couldn\u2019t really blame her because shed been divorced\ntwice. It really never was her fault, she just never found the right person to\nhandle her craziness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But\nin all honesty, she was a remarkable Science teacher. During class, she would\nput aside her emotions and teaches Science with a passion that was admired by\nnot only the students but many teachers as well. If Science was a person, I Bet Ms Valerie\nwould marry it and live happily ever after \u2013 definitely not intentionally making\nher whole love story seemed any sadder than it already is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before\nanything else, nobody was ever too much of a goody two shoes back in high\nschool \u2013 let us all not lie to ourselves. Trish was one of the top students in\nRiverlake High who was one of the students to receive awards for being the only\ngirl who gets a higher distinction in English language paper. However, on a\npeculiar day, Trish and her best friends were planning on skipping just one day\nof school to watch a movie in the mall before their last day of high school \u2013\nbecause she did not see why she should not let loose a little with her best\nfriends before everything ends for good. So, Trish and her best friends had\ndecided to skip for movies but Trish, being one of the most outstanding students\nin school, was not able to get away from the teachers in school thus her\nabsence from school was easily noticed. Principal called her parents and of course\nwhat comes next was a no-brainer \u2013 grounded and she was not allowed to step out\nof the house unless it was for some valid reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some\ndays were tough for Trish but she never once regretted making those foolish\ndecisions that got her into trouble because she believed that all of that were\nwhat made her high school life even more memorable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of\ncourse, the next thing that Trish reminisced about was the food, the glorious\nfood\u201d Actually that\u2019s totally over exaggerated. The food in school was anything\nbut glorious. It was actually quite distasteful. They offered many different selections\nso you could take your pick. You could choose from wilted beans, almost mouldy\nmacaroni and cheese \u2013 Yikes! I bet you could smell how nasty it is just reading\nthe sentence, am I not correct eh? \u2013 not to mention, the infamous meatloaf.\nThat meatloaf caused umpteen stomach-aches and trips to the toilet that many\nstudents pray not end up in. They were not even sure what kind of meat was in\nthat thing. Even cockroaches kept their distance. It was only good for one\nthing and only one, food fights! The thought of that made Trish cracked up\nlaughing to herself because on one occasion, she was the culprit who started\nthe food fight. Good times, good times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As\nshe continued to flip through her old and dusty yearbook, she came across a piece\nof paper that was slipped in. It happened to be the letter that her current\nboyfriend, Joe sent to her asking her to be his prom date that senior year. She\nsmiled as she remembered that rainy day when he went down on one knee but got\nback up again because he injured his leg playing football a day earlier. And of\ncourse, Trish said nothing else but \u201c yes\u201d and that yes made her a very, very\nhappy girl during and also after prom. Prom, one of the best nights of Trish\u2019s\nlife. The ambience was so magical that it took her breath away. Fairy lights were\ndraped all over the ballroom and everyone wore their best to impress. They dances\nall through the night and cried when the slide presentation of their final days\nin high school were shown at the every end. That was the moment Trish realised\nthat high school was coming to an end. She\nwould not have to wake up at five in the morning, she would not get to meet her\nbest friends at her locker because it would be somebody else\u2019s locker, she\nwould never get to experience Mr Twist\u2019s lectures and Ms Valerie\u2019s interesting Science\nlessons. It was all ending and at that moment in time she wished it would never\nend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wiping\na tear rolling down her cheeks, Trish closed her yearbook with so much emotions\nand memories flashing back in her mind and put It back into the box where she had\nfound it. Then she looked out of her bedroom window and imagined herself back\nin high school again. It really meant a lot to her and was the time of her life\nand definitely engraved back in her mind since then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
