Dani by her own words

         I am the kind of person who alwaus gets afraid when doing something for the first time. It has always been like that in my life: I was a little bit afraid and anxious when I first kissed, when I first went to a party without my parents or my sister, when I did the test of PAS for the first time and so on. So in this sense, my first day at Military School couldn't be different at all.

         First of all, I am a very anxious person. This can be proven by the fact that I bite my nails, which shows anxiety. In addition, before I started studying at Military School or CMB (the way some students call it) I had always heard that it was a really hard school, where discipline was for sure the dearest characteristic of the students. Those rumors made me get really scared of my first day there, which was at the end of January of the year 2003.

         I was only ten years old and I thought that if I did something that was against the Military's law I would be hardly punished, even if my mistake were irrelevant. Also, I can remeber that when I first stteped on the school's floor, I almost started crying. However, I went ahead and really enjoyed this first day! Finally, I realized that all the new students were scared (just like me!) and, after all, the famous Military School couldn't be that bad.

        Therefore, after some time I accustomed to the discipline. Nowadays, I love my school and I feel sad to know that next year will be my last one studying there... I admit that remebering that first day gave me some nostalgia and I wish I could relive that unusual moment.
