The Challenging Boundary Line, 'An idiotic student '.

....where my memory lies....

"...I was unaware that the rule was in  place..."
An internal monologue triggered me to flashback how weird was my mind in the past. To get enrolled in the school was easy but the will of the child to be in the school was challenging for all the parents. Quite often,  they (parents) had to unchained their old purse ('teru pacco' in Sharchhop) to let their children go happily to the school.

But today the scenario is just contradictory-more than three dozen children for only one dozen seats for example.
I was told (by parents) about how they struggled to let me go back to the school after having dropped out from the school. I learnthink that I had been in pre-primary (PP) for a month or two, when I already decided not returning to school.

The reason was silly but worth remembering. I was brutally beaten three times on my left palm for i was unaware of the rule,'Stand in standstill position while lowering the National Flag'.
The school had a rule stating that students must be in standstill in the school campus when lowering the flag. I remember there was a border (school gate) where all the students should stand in standstill position upon hearing the signal (whistle blow) to lower the National Flag.
No sooner the class gets over than we dashed in dying speed to cross the border (school gate).

Some fails to cross and falls flat to overtake each other. Everyone would overwhelmed with happiness if any of us had crossed the boundary line (school gate) before the signal.
The chalenge in us wasn't only the studies but restrospecting on getting out of that boundary line;  became a stunning challenge.
