My school days were the best days of my life, I still remember my first
day at school, I was six years old but I can still feel how that day effected my whole
life.
I still remember my parent’s smile and the fear that I felt, I was nervous
and affraid of teachers, but my mom told me that I will have the best friends ever
and she was right. That’s why I consider my primary school memories as the
treasure of my life.
Those who are my best friends today, I got them from my primary school,
and those thoughtful teachers who taught me how to be self-confident and never
give up on my dreams, I will never forget them. I think if I didn’t have these
memories and valuable experiences of my school life, I would have missed a lot in
my life. Those unforgettable days of excitement helped me to appreciate the value
