Speaking exercise

I’m a student and I just graduated from ….. in Melbourne Australia.

Not really because it’s a boarding school and i generally do not like the staff there. Because they’re too strict, because our breakfast time is from 7:30 to 8:15 and there’s only 1 hot water there in the cafeteria and we can’t get hot water from anywhere else so if I just want to get hot water and I don’t want breakfast, but the door is closed at 8:50 sharp, so I will argue, I just want to get hot water, why can’t I.

I think the most memorable thing is like the first period in my high school i got lost and i was finding the classroom for like 20 minutes and i ended up like my teacher looked for me all around the building and i was really embarrassed because when i walked in the classroom my classmates all secret laughing.
