Let me tell you about my middle school. I studied at Number 3 Junior High in Fuzhou and I think I can say I am very familiar with the place because, as a teenager, I spent so much time studying and hanging around at school. As you may know, Chinese students are required to study six days a week and our schedule is usually very tight. We almost considered our school as a second home since we spent more time there than anywhere else.
My school was a rather large school, with about 3000 students. You need to imagine large classrooms, packed with students. I think there were around 55 students on average in each class. The classrooms were not very modem but I can't say that it was totally old-fashioned as we had access to a computer in most rooms. There were electric fans on the ceiling and the desks were not made of wood like in schools in the countryside.
At Number 3 Middle School, there is a huge playground with about 8 basketball courts. Boys love to play basketball at recess or after school. Girls usually walk around and chitchat with one another on a bench. In Fuzhou we have big banyan trees and there is an impressive one at the entrance of the school. The buildings have 5 floors and from the top, you have a nice view of the surroundings.
At school, we used to wear traditional uniforms every day and, although many students complained about it, I think most students were pleased not to have to worry about what to wear every morning.
Teachers at school were quite professional. Number 3 Middle School has a good reputation and teachers are qualified and experienced. I learned a lot from them, especially from my Chinese teacher, Mr. Wu. He was a passionate and fascinating teacher who always had a nice word to say in order to encourage us all. He taught me how to remain positive and enthusiastic.
I also kept in touch with many of my classmates and we try to get together whenever we come back to Fuzhou. We always reminisce about high school.
