What's happening at the University?
Friday, November 24, 2006
University started on Sunday for the first graders, I was very nervous when mom left me at my college. I didn't find anyone I knew in the building and it felt like everyone was looking at me, very uncomfortable!
Then I found a familiar face, a girl who I haven't talked to before except on the phone once, when she called and asked about communication engineering, knowing that I applied to it, and told me that she was thinking of repeating the sixth grade on hope that she'll get a higher average of marks then, and getting accepted at some higher college (Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry). She's met another firstgrader and was talking with her. I joined them. They were both very nice but the first, S, was more to my liking.
We finished lessons at 2:30 PM, we took all the lessons since we were behind in lessons even before starting, since university started really late this year.
A student from the 4th grade played a practical joke on our class, pretending to be a prof, and dismissing 2 students while getting us all nervous with his attitude before admitting it.
The next day I met another girl, Z, who along with S, is now my friend.
Time at the uni goes really really fast.. I barely have time to talk with the girls. We have a rest of 10 minutes for every hour, but it's not enough.
I'm loving studying at the uni. I like all the subjects.. I have no difficulty in studying in English unlike most of the students who have to translate the pages before studying!
I like the teachers, all but one, but my first impressions have proved very wrong in the past!
We received our textbooks, each two students share the books. Most of the students do not use the books (Until they have to, at Higher studies) and depend on what the teachers give us, but I love books. A charity institution donated books for the university students (One for each two too, and one title for each grade), the books are good, copies like all our books, yet well-covered.
I hope university will always be fun for me.. I'll pray for that.
