While performing for comrade Tito I was really nervous so I forgot my script and decided to improvise. My parents had to come to school to explain why I haven't learned my text properly.
If haven't learned a song by heart I had to stay in the classroom after school until I did. Just imagine having to explain to your parents were you've been.
In my time the school got it's first 2 computers. If we wanted to type just a few words we would have to wait in line.
I remember my first lesson in the 1st grade was "Greetings". We had to walk to school for 4 miles and during those walks we would loudly say "Good afternoon" to everyone.
Children and adults were respecting teachers. If a teacher hit you, you would get punished physically by your parents.
