I will cheerful that you can correct me.
Feeling you free in correct me.
Here's my correction for you, Crotalito. This isn't the only way to do it, but I tried to make what you are saying as clear and natural as I could while keeping the basic order of your sentences intact:

When I went to school, those days were wonderful during my boyhood. (The word "boyhood" isn't really used in natural speech very much, just so you know) I did a lot of fun things when I was young. (Here you could say "Always I would", "I always would", or "I would always", but the last one sounds the most natural) I would always go to the movies and the night club with my friends, and I had a habit of smoking many cigarettes in those days.

I would (or will) be happy if you corrected (or correct, if you used will) me.
Feel free to correct me.

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I understand ese, estos, esa, etc. a lot better now.
