What did you do last weekend? Last Sunday, my sister visited us with 3 children of hers. And most of the day we stayed at home and then in the evening we went out to go to a park and spent the whole evening there.
SCHOOL How old were you when you started school? Like most kids in my country, I went to school when I was 7. I still remember it was early fall and I was excited to show up to school with brand new clothes my parents got me.
How did you get to school each day? My school was like a 10-15-minute walk away from where I lived, so I walked to school. But sometimes my dad used to take me school on his car.
Did you enjoy it? (Why?/Why not?) Well, I can proudly say yes. Because I had a lot of friends there and I liked my teachers too. Yes there were times when I hated school but in general I loved my experience at school.
What were some of the most popular activities at primary school? For boys, it was always sports. The school I studied at used to organize a lot of competitions and we used to participate in them quite regularly. For girls, on the other hand, they used to take part in sports too but the majority of them would prefer subject related activities.
Have you ever returned to see your old school again? After I finished school, we move to another city. So, I haven’t revisited my hometown in a while meaning I haven’t been to my school ever since I moved.
Are you still in contact with any of the friends you had in primary school? With the majority of them, I don’t even talk and I may say hello to them when I come across them in shopping malls or out in the streets. But there are a couple I still keep in touch with because they are my closest friends.
Describe a fashionable person. I’d say I have never been interested in fashion mainly because it is one of the most fluid things these days, every day there is a new type of clothing. You buy something brand new and it becomes out of fashion in like a month. But I have friends who are crazy about buying the most fashionable items. Of those friends of mine, the most interesting one is probably Mike. Mike is a guy in his mid-20s, with a brown hair and he always wears glasses, probably it’s part of his style. I met him when I started studying at university. We got on well with each other from the first moment we started studying together because he is very open-minded and has a great sense of humor, a trait which I appreciate in people most.
So the thing is, Mike is very attentive to his appearance, especially to what he wears. He likes to keep up with the latest fashion. He has special applications in his phone which show the things that are released recently in the world of fashion. He goes shopping every two weeks probably and he normally invites me too. Even though I don’t purchase anything, I like to stroll around fashion stores with him. When asked the question of why he likes to wear fashionable clothes, he explained that it was part of his personality and wearing what he wants makes him more confident too.
The type of clothes he chooses to wear is classy. He likes wearing things in black blinding them with something white, which is a common combination. Sometimes I feel influenced by him too because at times we buy the same type of clothes and we just look like brothers and that feels amazing.
