My first day at the University
I will always remember my first class' day. It all start a Tuesday in the afternoon.
I was so exited, that I organized my stuffs the day before, just like an elementary kid will do. I putted my pens on my pencil case, my notebook (still with it fresh new smell on it) on my bag, and the last, but not the least, I took a bottle of water. I started my class in the afternoon, so I decided to take a light breakfast; anyway I didn't eat a lot because I was extremely impatient to meet my new classmates and teachers. I wanted everything went perfect, so I leave the house early and I took the bus one hour in advance. During the way to the University, I imagined how would be my new academic life and I begged for nice teachers. Although I already had hear about the troubles in the public Universities, this time I prayed to have a normal day. When I arrived to the University, I went straight to the building 315. Since I was already there (3 weeks ago I presented a test on the lab.), I knew that the classrooms were located on the third floor, so I didn't stopped unnecessarily on the second floor to look for a room full of “primiparos”. However I didn't check the number of the classroom before, so I started looking in each room. I think everybody recognize me because I opened the door and ask with an innocent “Is this the english lv 1 class?”. I ask in all the rooms but none of them were the correct one. Finally ( and that's why I recently wrote a letter to the Murphy law) I opened the last room and check inside. I didn't know if there was a miracle, or maybe the f*&!ing Muyrphy's law, but I finally reach the correct room.
I entered and sat quietly trying not to look like a newby.
Recommendations for your first class' day
Make sure you have previously arranged all your equipment in order to avoid wasting time preparing yourself.
Have a balanced meat. Include in your diet proteins and water so your organism can reach the energy from your organism properly when needed.
Use your time wisely. Take the bus (it would be suitable a taxi) 30 minutes in advance in order to avoid any unexpected situation, for instance a traffic jam.
If possible, have a previous visit to your destination so it would be easier for you to reach the place.
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT, WROTE ALL THE INFORMATION NECESARY TO REACH YOUR DESTINATION SUCH AS THE ADRESS, PHONE NUMBER AND CLASSROOM NUMBER.
I guess your twice told story is pretty interesting since you clearly state your emotions and sensation. However, I think you could check these sentences:
ReplyDeleteIt all start = It all stared or starts ( I am not sure if you are talking in present or past tense)
an elementary kid will do = an elementary kid would do (modal verb)
I´m pretty sure you just forgot it but if I´m wrong, please let me know it
I like the text number two is really funny, I think that you really has developed the idea of the instructions very well.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed both texts, they show me diferent points of view. The first one has a good structure and it is very narrative ; and the second one has clear instructions.
ReplyDeleteNice, just remember, It start = It starTED. Just a piece of advice so you don't fall into the "stared" stuff. ;)
