I remember the time when I graduated from year 6,
I didn’t like the graduation song.
I remember the time when I went to camp for the first time,
The weather was very bad and the bus was slow.
I remember the time when I got lost in the shopping Centre,
I was crying and looking for my mother.
I remember the time when I started memorizing the Quran,
My parents were very happy with me.
I remember the time my best friend died,
My friend had a very horrible death.
I remember the time when I went horse riding for my first time,
At the end of the horse ride, I couldn’t get off the horse.
I remember the first time I went rock climbing,
Sadly my friend was better than me in the rock climbing.
