I once heard my grandparents say that before the democratic reform, their lives were miserable. After the serf (democratic) reform, the Tibetan people were the masters of the house.
School life is very rich, and extracurricular activities are also richer.
I like to read some famous books, and some famous novels, and sometimes watch documentaries, and it broadens my knowledge for me.
