Meeting with Teacher

First of the exams is over and with it comes a wave of relief and trepidation. The beginning of the end or the dawn of a new beginning which one it is to be no one knows. I hope to tilt it in favour of the latter though only time will tell how successful I will be. The day was an average day with its share of interesting moments and its share of the usual mundane moments. Met a teacher who taught me in school. Its so weird. At one time I had to look from below to see her and now suddenly I am taller and suddenly the same person who was tall and intimidating because of her height is now an average lady. She surprisingly recognized me though she didnt remeber my name (but then that would be asking for too much expecting her to remember a mouse/bookworm like me) Teacher Alice Carvalho was one of those people who teach you maybe a subject or two but it is the weird things they do that stay in your memory forever and with time you realise how much she actually taught you maybe not with reagrds to the subject but just about how to be a better person. She is an extremely mother-like lady. She would chide us for any small mistake but there would be no malicious criticism it would almost be like getting a earful from your mother. She would insist on you dotting the i's and crossing the t's and many other minor things that you really wouldnt pay too much attention to. An extremely nice lady she is one of those teachers I never thanked much and now wish I had. An excellent teacher and an even better person Mrs. Alice Carvalho is among the best people I have had the good fortune of knowing.
