78-year-old man starts first day at school
 

A Bulgarian senior citizen has enrolled in his first day at school.

According to BTA, Apostol Stoyanov, from the village of Popovtski, has enrolled in the first grade at a local school in Gabrovo.

The 78-year-old never went to school as a child, and claims that he is almost completely illiterate.

Despite admitting that he is "scared" at the idea of learning maths, Stoyanov said that he is looking forward to the experience.

Stoyanov began his classes alongside 430 other first-graders on Thursday, but in future will study as a private student without regularly scheduled lessons.

What a creep

Aww

First graders are like 6 right?

Yes.

Won't they be talking about jam sandwiches & lego are stuff..

I think it may be a little too late for him.

I doubt he will be socializing with them really.

Just sharing the lessons...


@mmi :p

:conf2:

Awww

Yes, what a creep, wanting an education.

Poor guy

I may be wrong but 78 is a little late for a career change.

I see you are back then :suspect:

Aw let the man have an education! It's not like he can get it up nowadays anyway.. he's not gonna molest kids and stuff

Must have taken a lot for him to do this. He must really want it. Good for him.

Awwhhh..... good on him for going for it. Wonder why he waited quite so long though.

Good on him, don't know the circumstances behind why he's left it this long but wish him all the best with it.

Good for him, i dont quite understand why he waited so late though he has managed so far, he can't really put it into practice and lets face it he cant have long to go now. :S Hope he does well though

I wish him luck.
