I'm Tessa, 18 years old now. I remember my time at primary school well. I feel some of it is really
good, but some of it can bring back bad memories.
My first day
I'll never forget my first day at primary school. I remember I felt really nervous on that day. We were
in assembly (集合), and the head teacher was introducing himself. A girl next to me started asking about my shoes. So, I told her about my shoes. Suddenly the head teacher looked at me with an angry face. "
Be quiet when I am speaking! Go and stand in the corner," he said. I remember I felt so terrible at that
time.
My first teacher
I remember her name was Mrs Simpson. She was really pretty and had a lovely smile. She had a soft
voice and always wore the same sweater. She seemed so nice after that horrible (可怕的) head teacher.
Sports day
The sports day was the best day of school! I used to practice for the five-kilometer race and one year
I actually won!
My nickname (绰号)
Everyone in the class had a nickname. Some of the nicknames were funny and some weren't very
nice. There was a thin girl who everyone called "spider legs". I remember they used to call me "mushroom
(蘑菇) head" because my hair stuck out (突出) on either side. It made a lasting impression on me. Not a good one.
