Now I'm twenty-one years old. I went to school for the first time, you know, about 15 years ago. Even though I remember everything like it happened yesterday. Well, at that time, I woke up early, very early, before my parents woke up, because I had been looking forward to that day for a long time. Then, school was located near my home, about 1 or 2 kilometers away. My mom took me there. There were a lot of people - children, parents, and teachers. And, also, I made friends with my classmates and our teacher, and we became close friends. Then, the bell rang for us, and we entered our classroom. If I'm not mistaken, I sat on the first chair at the first table. Then the teacher asked who knows, and children were shouting, 'I know! I know!' And then some children were talking about their parents and the teacher, etcetera. I think I said, 'I'm from my homeland.' Well, yes, my homeland. Well, it was a great time. I suppose it was a great time, and I think I'll never forget it.
