A wave of
nostalgia washed over me as i strolled down the sidewalk leadng to my primary school. i remembered that the school rules were very
restrictive, due to the fact that truancy was
rife at that time. nevertheless, i still enjoyed school life.
being
blunt in speech, i had offended a number of classmates. As such,they had given me a very interesting nickname: chilli padi. it was nothing to be proud of as word spreaded around the school compound and everybody in school would take great pleasure in shouting:" hello, chilli padi" then bursting into laughter. how embarrassing. truth be told, i enjoyed being called "chilli padi", it landed me in the centre of attention. i was among the "lucky few" to have adopted a nickname.
another classmate of mine, who was a
mendacious person had a nickname called pinocchio.
