<em> The first</em> of September is the "Day of Knowledge" in Russia. It means that all <em>pupils</em> return to their respective schools after their holidays. Many people name this day the <em>"Gala Day,"</em> but when I was a child I didn't <em>think that name was appropriate</em>. Perhaps, this day is the <em>"Gala Day"</em> for <em>parents</em>, but for pupils it wasn't, as they had to be in school and couldn't <em>meet-up</em> in the city or on the internet.
I became a teacher this summer. This <em>first</em> of September is a significant day for <em>me, however</em> I am not feeling happy because I <em>am worried</em>. My new school is known <em>as</em> a school for troubled teens. It's just not the teen factor, but it is also called <em>"The Night School"</em> and has <em>the </em>number 13 on it. It's <em>symbolic,</em> isn't it? <em>This</em> will be an interesting and unusual experience — something like Jazz.
