When I was younger, I dreaded going back to school after the weekends or a holiday break because I just wanted to stay home and spend all my time playing with my family. Monday was the day that I hated the most out of all the other days in the week. However, now that I look at the past I am very grateful to be able to go to school and be able to learn things. Going to school not only helped me learn many things, but it also made me understand how society works to better myself for the future.
