..
.When I lived in Burundi I played with my friends. We played hiding and we also went fishing. I went fishing in the river and I caught fish with something I made myself with a stick. I lived in a house made of brick. I lived with my mom and my five brothers and one sister and my father. I had a dog and sheep. I went to a small school. Boys and girls went to school together. I liked school. I played soccer with my friends there. My favorite class math.
