on my very first day in pre-school, i found it funny when a lot of my classmates cried as their mothers turn them over to the teacher. they really looked so upset with their teary faces... did you cry when you were left by your parents on your very first day of school life? feel free to tell about it here.

no,but I cried so often when I was in Middle School.when I had to live in public dormitory because our school was very far away from my home.then I was just thirteen years old.every day I missed my mother very much,and the commadation in our school was so poor,so I often cried.

I did, I felt so scared when I was told to sit in my desk for the first time. I won't let my mother leave the room so at first she just stayed at the back of the room because I would cry if she leaves. That lasted for a week, later I got used to coming to school already I didn't cry anymore.

I must admit that I was really begging my parents to send me to school. I was so excited to go there. But during my first day in school, I cried loudly. It's as if it's the end of the world for me. I can't help but laugh about it when I think of it now. It's so funny. I love to go to school. That's why i'm pursuing my studies to the limits now. I just want to learn and know life itself.

No, i didn't cry. I like to school i can have a lot of friends their. And maybe because i have brothers, before i had school i go with my mom to pick them so i really like go to school, see my brother go home and they have a lot of story about his friends and his teacher make me want to school. And the first time i went to school i'm so happy, i daw my classmate cry and i try to make them happy by asking them to play with me.

I am proud (and my parents too!) that I did not shed even a single tear on my first day in pre-school. I was even 5 year old then. This memory is vague to me but my mother used to tell me that I was really brave and was enthusiastic when I entered the classroom. I was with my cousin of my age but when our parents were about to leave, she was really crying and dont want to be left there, so I comforted her and tell her we'll just play there. But she never stoped crying so she went home with my aunt.
