In North Ryde everything pretty much looks the same --the houses, the streets, the people. If you look in the background of this photo, you'll see one of the local buses that can take you to one of a few destinations --but never far enough away. Damn the public transport system.
My old primary school. This is where i went to school from Kindergarten till Year 6. It's a small school whose student population never topped 150 kids, so a few years ago they brought in some disabled kiddies to boost the numbers. If you look at the picture you'll notice the hand painted throwing target on the wall --you don't get much more ordinary than that. Go Truscott Street.
There's actually five primary schools around North Ryde, this is a photo of the local Catholic one. The kids from my school hated the kids from Spiritus Sanctus, and vice versa. I'm not sure why us Truscott-Streeters had such negative feelings towards Spiritus Spastics and the kids who went there, maybe it was because it was a religious school, maybe it was their uniform, maybe they had attitude, i cant recall...all i know is we hated those little pricks.
