I am your name/. I study at school in the 7th form. My school is OK but sometimes I find it is a bit boring and tiring because of lots of homework.
So I would like to make some changes. If I were a principal of the school I would cancel homework - I think it is wasting time! Then, I would make the breaks between lessons longer. Next, I would also improve the menu in school canteen - most of food is absolutely disgusting. I think students need more salads, fruit, and vegetables.
The next step is holidays. Summer holidays are long enough but I would make autumn, winter and spring holidays longer to let pupils to spend more time out or to travel.
It saddens me to think about what will become of the rock in ten years. It seems to me that when the rock dies, the world will end... Now rock solid and so plagiarism, and so his death is not far off. Youth music is not like the previous generation, it's more a matter of fashion. The young people find their friends - in this situation it is difficult to expect a reverent attitude to music. For them it is just a set of sounds, they do not provoke any particular feeling. now everybody is obsessed with TVs and phones everywhere techno-addicts. soon People will be found dead right in the headphones
