Answer:
How was your first day of school?
Sale ends on 13th November!
My first day of school, looking back, feels absolutely hilarious to me, though it must've been a nightmare as a child.
My father used to take pictures and shoot plenty of home videos at the time, and he made sure to get some good footage (which I don't have with me right now, though I do have pictures) of the days leading up to as well as the day on which I first began going to school.
You see that cheerful kid at the back there? That's me. This picture was shot a little before I got into my school bus to go to school for the first time ever. The smiling kid in the foreground is my younger siste

Why is the first day of school feel so weird?
Well, I don’t remember attending the first day of the school but I was in the town of Macherla (near Nagarjuna Sagar) because my father was posted there as a school teacher (Telugu Pandit). Myself and my elder brother (he was just two and a half years elder to me) were sent together to one roadside school (veedhi badi) run by one Sri Guravayya garu. We were sort of pre schooled at home by our mother who attended school for a few years before her marriage at the age 14.
Well, we were sent to that street school for a couple of months and we sort of complained in the home that we knew more than what was being taught there. We were allowed to stop going. It seems the idea was just to get a certificate from that teacher that we attended his school so that we could write the entrance test for admission into the 1st form (present day 6th standard) of the District Board High School, Macherla.
Well, we wrote the entrance test and probably we aced the test. It seems the head master of the school (where in fact my father was working as a Telugu teacher) was mightily impressed (the credit should go to my late mom) and was in fact offering admission into 2nd form (seventh standard!) directly. I was just 7 and my brother was elder by about 2 years but was short statured and was sort of looking younger (his growth was affected by small pox when he was 4). Considering all the factors (esp. that we were already underage for admission to the high school), my father requested that we be admitted only in 1st form and not 2nd. He was somewhat afraid of bullying and physical beating by other older, bigger children who would be our classmates.
So, off we went to the regular school at that young age. We got sort of special attention because we were the children of a teacher of that same school and also because we were considered to be sort of super kids from our top class performance in the entrance test. We were first benchers always and sat side by side. We were compared to Rama and Lakshmana the inseparable brothers of Ramayana. I was definitely the more active and aggressive of the two.
We continued to have a fairly brilliant record in school and shifted to ARMH School, Perala, Chirala when we were in 5th form and completed our SSLC (present day 11th standard) in 1961. I was the school first, my brother was second and another study mate (his name is Veera Swamy and so we were called Swamy Trio) was third. Our main competitors who were son and nephew of our maths teacher were 4th and 5th…it was a healthy rivalry and was fun.
We finished PUC (12th standard or Intermediate second year now) in 1962 and moved to Hyderabad for further studies.
Thanks for triggering the old memories.
