Left my old school , new city , new people , new friends
After moving to the city, i left behind my old friends, i was not happy at all, but we had to move. Now we were in a big city with people who were barely as social as we were in our suburb. In the city the people seemed cramped up ,with smaller houses and apartments, a lot of people on the streets and traffic on the roads.. -
Joined a private school
Joined a small private school at the city, it did not have a lot of students, the classes were moderate sized and the students were less in numbers, making it really easy for the teachers to focus on each and every one of us. -
Got my first computer
It was an intel inside pentium 3 at that time, our school required us to have a PC at home, so dad bought one for me. I used it for games more than homework tho. -
