It is wonderful to say that your days behind a school desk are over. It's just another phase in your life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you're a child, it's easy to see school as the worst thing in the world. It's only later in life you realise what a wonderful time it was. Looking back, I can't believe I even wanted to leave.
My best days do seem like a distillation of all that was best about school. Write a story! Paint a picture! Write a poem! Make a print!
My happiest hours are spent in school, surrounded by those I hope to benefit.
When I was a teacher, teachers would come into my classroom and admire my desk on which lay nothing whatever, whereas theirs were heaped with papers and books.
I wish I had more time to visit schools.
For many, graduation marks the end of formal student life - the end of long spring breaks and of thinking that a 10 A.M. class is far too early.
It's frightening, the way life speeds up. When you're at school, time can't go fast enough.
What makes me sad about school is that the people who are unhappy are unhappy because they don't believe it will change. And I just want to say: 'It does! High school ends and it's over.' I will tell anyone that it's OK to be unhappy at school, make lots of mistakes and then it will be over.
I wish my school days could have dragged on a little longer, or that I could go back and do it later in life.
I never understand when people say, 'School days are the best of your life.' So it's all downhill from 16? How depressing.
