Since I go to middle school, I stay away from home and live in school from Monday to Friday. The first time for me to leave home made me felt so lonely. I did not have friends here and no one to count on. But I told myself that I needed to try to be independent. So I solved all the problems by myself, I washed my own clothes and cleaned the bed, which were done by my mother before. I found that I could take care of myself without my parents’ help. What’s more, I made good friends here, we had the same interest and we helped each other in study. A year passed, I learned a lot and became independent.

自从我上中学,我就远离家,住在学校，从星期一到星期五。第一次离开家让我感到如此孤独。在这里我没有朋友,也没有人可以依靠。但我告诉自己,我需要试着去独立。所以我自己解决了所有的问题,我自己洗衣服，整理床铺,在之前是我母亲为我做这些。我发现我能照顾自己，即使没有父母的帮助。更重要的是,我交到了好朋友,我们有同样的兴趣，互相帮助学习。一年过去了,我学到了很多，变得独立。
