i hope its accurate.. stare

Yeah my school time wasnt like that.... tis was much better

hmmm....how to expalin. well, the article makes no sense to me.

school life....

well, i d say i had rather nice teachers by chance, and in my time, the childrne behaved, and since im not 50, it should be the same.

High school and middle school we like a hell that you could not imagine. Well, maybe not high school, thing sgot free-er, and more things to do. Except exams to enter high school/to enter university/college needed much preperation. I think almost my entire class went to cram schools. In all, it was a fun experience, teachers taught the lesson, and left, and it was us kids alone for a while. *sigh* im so old.

Basically normal school, if you know what normal japanese school is.

Everbody knew everybody, gossip was god, and bullying was left to the boys while we watched and snickered.

Yes, it shows the bare facts, but it doesn't show the school community inside, how everything reacts with each other. Is that what you wanted to say?
