Here are my answers for Q 1- 3
The questions
Q1. How did you get to school everyday? 2. Where was your school? 3. Was your school co-educational?
When I was a HS student I walked about 20 minutes to school
everyday. Some students rode
bicycles. In my final year I drove my
car as I got my driver’s license at age 17. When I walked on rainy days my
school uniform got wet because nobody carried umbrellas. It wasn’t cool to use an umbrella. I lived in Richmond, a historic town of about
10, 000 people, 50 km west of Sydney in the foothills of the Blue
Mountains. The air was clean and the
environment very good. There were
several large rivers. There were many
outdoor activities to do. About 1,300 students attended our school, which was
co-ed. There were 70 teachers. In general I liked my school because we had a
canoe club but it was a little rough, especially at lunchtime. Sometimes there were fights between the male
students. After school I sometimes went
to the swimming pool, rode my bicycle, or worked at a gasoline stand. Other times I met with friends and we would
just hangout. I had a girlfriend who
lived a little far from school. We met
on weekends. Sometimes we went horse
riding and sometimes on Friday night we went to the disco. On weekends, when I wasn’t working, I
sometimes went fishing or hiking in the mountains with friends or my father. When I was 17 I bought an off-road motorcycle
and rode on dirt tracks along the river.
