-went the sudden announcement on the telecom by Sister Therese, our principal. I remember, I was in the classical music room then and sir wasn't there. So we had been sitting in groups, chatting.

P.T.A meets, Teacher's Day, even tests conducted in other schools on School offs- an H.C.S girl had to be in uniform anywhere and everywhere.

The white suit with red polka dots was one plight and other schools not being as stringent with the uniform thing as ours, was another.
