Where I'm From Interview

Picture of our Car in China (Dad)

For the "Where I'm From" interview, I picked my dad as my interviewee. I had a nice 30 minute chat with my dad asking some questions that I came up with earlier. My first question for my dad is how is your neighbor like to you when you're growing up? An answer I got back is he had some really nice neighbor around where he likes, there was a couple that lives right next to him is my grandpa's old friend. My dad grow up in the country side, so he basically knows everyone near him. Right across from my dad's house, lives three people, two parents and one is my dad's friend as they grow up. My dad told me that is all he remember so he want me to jump into the next question.

What do you usually do in school when you was a kid and please give me some details. My dad answered, "It was cool for me to go to school at that time, every child in the country side knows each other, and some of the are in the same class as me. After school is when all the fun part comes, we hang out near a huge tree that near a friends house, we claim up and down the tree, playing tags, and play cards but loser have to do whatever the winner says." My follow up question was, "But did you do anything bad when you're in school?" My dad answered, "Yes, a lot. We were used to be very bad children, we have fights with another class students after school, having drinks without parents knowing, but one thing for sure is we would never do any drugs." 

I was very interested in my dad's childhood so I follow up my question and asked, "Please tell me a time when you get into a major trouble in school, since you told me how a bad kid you were when you're little." My dad laughed and said," I still remember a time when my classmate and I get into a group fight with another because the two class never gets along with each other, so during school recess we started a huge fight. People were using chairs as weapons during the fight, pens are throwing across the class, but the fight got break out in few minute when the principal and teacher stopped. People in both class that were fighting have to do community service for a month and parents have to pick up the kids from school or call home." There are some great answer that I think is pretty interesting to me, and my dad give me a lot of details, so this is why I'm writing about these few question.
