I'm sure you'll find a website or a google group, or something <BR/><BR/>aunty: I don't think I liked my schools that much either while I was there, but somehow many years later the feeling is different. I think I'm also curious about the changes, and if the old teachers are still there (well those who haven't retired/died)<BR/><BR/>I can't imagine how a school painted pink would look from the outside. It would have stood out against the background no doubt!Before painting houses in bold colours became fashionable, my faculty at the university painted their new building a bright yellow. We were the laughing stock of other faculties for two whole years (and then I left)Terra Shieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00039195435967190497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23144980.post-72057647732387569912008-07-28T06:17:00.000+08:002008-07-28T06:17:00.000+08:00The schools I went to are really near my parents h...The schools I went to are really near my parents house, and since I live near them too now they're fairly near to me. I pass my secondary school every so often. My primary school is a bit more off the beaten track.<BR/><BR/>They built prefabs in my primary school when I was 7 to house the extra classes of kids (I remember we actually had school in the church for awhile because there was no space for us). 22 years later they are still using these same temporary buildings!<BR/><BR/>Sometimes when passing my secondary school I feel the urge to remind people of the year they painted it pink... Pink!<BR/><BR/>I don't feel nostagic for school because I hated the place, but now you've got me wondering if my new nephew will end up going to the same primary school me and my brother went to... hmmmMairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06110865608550754101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23144980.post-90555312500151636772008-07-28T01:15:00.000+08:002008-07-28T01:15:00.000+08:00I have similar feelings of nostalgia every once in...I have similar feelings of nostalgia every once in awhile when I think about my old schools. I attended three elementary schools and two junior high schools. Luckily I only went to one high school.<BR/><BR/>Now you've got me thinking about that first elementary school. I think I'll see if I can find it online.Travis Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06192526507760146748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23144980.post-30210252733663748852008-07-27T12:09:00.000+08:002008-07-27T12:09:00.000+08:00Yes, it sure does.
