I couldn’t get on well with my classmates and just looked forward to go back home to meet my parents. I even couldn’t concentrate on my subjects. As time went by, besides, I gradually got used to the school life. I made many new friends or often took part in activities, in that I improved my communicating skills. As I had a lot of interested things to do, I finally enjoyed with my school life. Now, whenever I think of my first boarding school experience, I think of them as being instructive and unforgettably.
