I have ever stayed at home alone several times. Last month my parents had to attend an important meeting in another city for three days. But I can't miss the days of school so they left me alone.
At first I was free and happy. I enjoyed an interesting movie. I liked playing games so much that I played until midnight. But in the morning I got up late because nobody woke me up. I hurried to school without breakfast. After school I ate lots of snacks. I felt lonely and missed my parents. When my parents came back they were happy to find I could look after myself although it wasn’t easy.
I realize that staying alone is not always perfect. From this experience I learn that we shouldn’t depend on our parents too much. It is important to learn to look after ourselves well.
