Apa kabar cikgu....sekolah dulu dulu

SKTTB.....first school as admin

Are you over sixty? If you are tentu dapat connect dengan cerita saya ini.
Dilahirkan in the early fifties , early sixties saw me in primary school.Or was it 1959 to be exact.

When I was 7 years old,the time came for me to leave my free roam the village life for a life full of law and regulations.
It was Sekolah Perempuan Kulim Kedah.... a school that catered for girls only and situated next to the Cathay cinema in Kulim and a stone throw away from St Patrick's Church.
The first day saw me in the school sent by my tok angkat ( eh tak ada pun dia declare I ni cucu angkat dia)Dressed in kain and white baju kedah.The sarung has to be tightened by a belt made of cloth.All hand made by tokton.Kasut putih entah cap apa .Berbedak sejuk dan duit 10 sen disimpul dalam saputangan.
I was excited,made to bathe with the cold water drawn from the well.Ayaq kat Kulim was super cold those days...mungkin sbb ada tin ore kat sana.
Berjalan kaki melintasi rumah cina,jamban cina,kandang babi cina,kebun cina dan menaiki gon sampailah saya ke sekolah pada hari pertama.

cerita hampir sama ...gambar googled.

Ternganga tengok bangunan sekolah yang saya selalu intai bila tokton bawa pergi pekan Kulim.
Dua baris sekolah papan,satu bangunan 2 tingkat itulah sekolah saya.
Bangun...cikgu tahun satu saya bernama cikgu ........eh dah lupa ...ampun.
Selamat Pagi cikgu....kata murid murid bangun dari bangku panjang macam bangku makan kantin.

Kedepung kedepang.... hari pertama tamat.
Siapa nak balik ,tutup pintu,tutup tingkap....cikgu beri arahan.
Tiba  huuaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhhh....bertempik seorang murid perempuan.Aishah Rahman nama dia.
Cikgu dia kapit tangin Aishah....jahat la budak ni.
Budak jahat itu ialah cikson anak cikton cikmat dari jalan Pondok Labu Kulim....
Pucat lesi muka dia bila dia kena tuduh.....budak perempuan jahat hari pertama sekolah.....huaaaaaaaaa.
Di rumah dia cerita kejadian itu dekat tokton...Ingat tokton nak pujuk dia.
Ha....tu la jahat  lagi......jahat lagi..
