My first day of Nursery I was taught
that we are all friends and that violence is not right from nursery to
prekindergarten I followed that rule. But in kindergarten that rule started to
slide away from my mind because I had met two kids that changed me. In kindergarten
I had the most fun because these two friends that were amazing to play with, their
names were Buddy and Quin. Quin was a very small dude he was about 3 feet tall
and he got chased around a lot by the girls a lot of how cute he was. Buddy was
an average size kindergartener who was very active and was not shy at all. We used
real toys occasionally but not as much as we used our imagination we pretended
we were jedi, super heroes, monsters or all sorts of things. We never did the
same thing each day. Most of the things
we did we weren’t allowed to do because it was violent. We didn’t care we were
in kindergarten.
While we were playing imaginary
swordplay with our light sabers (or sticks) we were threatening each other. We
were playing all over the playground running around chasing each other. The
teacher didn’t know that we were playing a violent game. After a while she spotted us in the “peaceful
kingdom” so she yelled at us from the other side of the playground. We didn’t hear her the first few times because
of how loud we were, and she got really mad after that and she came over and
told us to stop or we would sit down for the rest of recess. She told us nicely
at first but Trinity, Buddy, and I still kept playing, but with less enthusiasm
than before. I played with the least of energy of us three. I didn’t know why we kept playing this game. Then
the teacher came over a second time and she yelled at us and I crumbled to the
ground right in the middle of her yelling after a few seconds I ran to the big
thing with the slide in the corner and cried. After the teacher stopped yelling
at each of them both Buddy and Quin came over to me and asked why I was crying and
if they could help and they helped me stop crying. The teacher was a substitute so I held a
grudge against her so I didn’t talk to her for the rest of the day and whenever
she substituted, in the future I don’t even remember who she was.
The rest of the day Quin, Buddy, and I just kind of
talked about Star Wars. And she didn’t care about that at all because we stayed
far away from her whenever she substituted. The next day we started to play
something different: superheroes and the teachers thought it was ok as long as
no one got hurt. Occasionally we got hurt. Sometimes one of us was getting
chased, sometimes all three of us were getting chased by the rest of the class.
Either way we had fun doing it. Most of the time teachers didn’t notice because
they couldn’t keep track of us because we were too fast for anyone in our minds.
Even during nap time we were restless. Trinity, Buddy and I always found a way
to make anything exciting for a Kindergartener.
Lately I might have seen Trinity playing lacrosse,
but I’m not sure. Buddy I saw at a basketball camp that I went to and I found
out his real name was Nicky at the end of the camp. It looks like we still have
the same interests though except for imaginary swords and the Force. Now that I
know they still live in the area I’m going to need to have more “dangerous”
adventures with them some time.
Great story!
