En route to the office every morning, I drive past several residential estates and many schools.
The preschoolers are always the happiest. You can see them bouncing and skipping gaily ahead of their mothers. They can’t wait to get to school.
The primary school kids hold on tightly to their mothers’ hands. There is a strong bond between mother and child. You can tell from their faces that dearest mummy is the best in the world!
The secondary school students who are ferried to school look sullen and embarrassed to be seen with their parents. Outside, playful teenage boys laugh and joke in their deep voices while the self-conscious girls sashay and prim their way to school.
The adults at the bus stops are the gloomiest lot. They almost look too sad to be heading to work.

Oh man love this post :)
I'm been driving the same circuit for too many years. In my rounds, I pass by preschools, primary, secondary schools, junior colleges, ITEs...and see sulky adults at the wheel and bustop.
