Baghdad International School

A couple of days ago an old friend added me on Facebook, a guy I knew about 15 years ago, or even more, he's a classmate from 1st grade, back when I was in Baghdad International School in Iraq.

It's really nice to talk to people from your past, It's refreshing yet a bit depressing. We started talking, and, akeed, we started talking about the school... I knew that it was destroyed during the war, but the guy gave me a link to a website that has photos of the school, and I must say, it was heart-braking, so sad, especially that this school was the best school I have ever attended.. it was perfect, and it's a big part of my current personality.

I went to this school from 92 to 96, kg - 3rd grade, but it had such an influence on me, it had so many facilities and activities, it was THE PERFECT LEARNING CENTER for me, I loved that school and I still do.

This is a photo of the school before its destruction..


And, after the destruction...



It's really sad and painful to see the place where you had your childhood memories destroyed!

That's basically all I wanted to say, childhood is great, and the school days will most probably be the best days of a person's life, eveyone should try to enjoy them to the max, and savour every moment of it.
