response#3:Confession

     When i was in high school, 11th grade as i remember, me and my friend once jumped from the window of the class  in the middle of the class while the teacher was writing on the board. The teacher saw us just when we got out of the class and kept shouting on us, while we were running towards the stairs to go out of the school.
  
     we managed to reach the school door, when we was like 3 steps away from the door, a teacher caught us and took us to the school manager. The manager kept shouting on us and told us if you didn't bring your father tomorrow you will be kicked out of the school. Tomorrow, i went to school late and he just forgot about us and nothing happened. :)

Responding to Proverbs

       As far as I understood the proverb "Rome wasn't built in a day". It is told to someone who is complaining about wanting to achieve something but don't want to work hard; for example, someone who wants to be a pilot and complaining about the study being hard so you tell him,"keep going, Rome wasn't built in a day"

       The proverb "Skillful sailors aren't made by smooth seas" also have a similar meaning to the proverb "Rome wasn't built in a day". They are both used to describe an achievement that is achieved by hard work.
