ten years from now...

times spent with s22.

i remember this picture, taken many years ago. the class was our kingdom. the board, our battle maps. testing the limits of our reading, securing the facts that bring us peace. we toy with wonder in the middle of a sterile afternoon. kept alive by laughter and the unknowing love that honours these spaces and sets us free...

organic moments: L. journey w s03

a short season of learning journeys are back again. brief respites post-prelim blues.

organic, countryside philosophy given to 06S03 (Bollywood Veggies) ...alot more focus on grasslands, tastebuds and wild fingers this time. one class of food and we find a greater palate for knowledge. another class of herbs, a cup of nature and the palmprints of ivysingh to swap, zap and slap the office of state doctrines away.
it is in hours like these that everyday philosophy gets discussed outside the classroom. we sometimes wonder how much of everything will stay long after the wierd exams are over. back to roots, back to nature. sense and intuition. touch, wait and see. learning. teaching.

red pods of banana flowers fall. collect pools of noon rain. sealed.

placed and homed to make other tables glow.
