Some children cannot sit for long so by introducing toy fish, different textures and colours to look at and feel enabled us to keep attention for a longer period of time.…
Attending the Pride friday at IUPUC before the beginning of school has been one of the most helpful events. By going to this I met some friends and learned more about the school itself. Although I have made the choice not to stay at IUPUC all four years of my college career, being here my first semester has started me off great. During this event they spoke of how we start and end our four years in the same way. I am just glad I have been able to enjoy my first semester by making some new friends, learning new strategies to working and figuring my life out.…
I struggled to make friends and found the semestered school system confusing and challenging. I realised that I was struggling to succeed and knew that I had to make important changes in the way I approached integrating into the Canadian system. I sought out the help of my favourite teacher at Carson Graham and asked if she could introduce me to some of my peers to overcome the initial barrier to me making friends. She gladly…
I always answer I am fine, anything is okay when people ask me how is your school. I decide my own schedule to college, but there are always two classes have the same time and I need a ride to back home and school. I didn’t pass my English class at the first quarter. I am lonely in college because most students like me go to school, work, and then home. We won’t have time to talk to each other face to face. I have to take care my own stuff, follow the syllabus and be an adult since I am not high school anymore. Some of my professor teaches differently and is not making sense to me so I have to retake my class again. There are many problems I have in college, but I never give up myself. I remember, “Failure is the mother of success”. This quarter, I am rethinking about myself learning methods to fit into my professor teaching style and join the international student club. After all my classes done, I stay school one or two hours to meet with my new friends do homework together. I realize overcome is not just a noun, it is also an action I have to do it instead spin around. My friend, family, and relatives are all support me to overcome bad things to get my bachelor…
In the second semester of sophomore year, I transferred to public school, Sahuaro High School. My parents mentioned that I could learn more socially…
My school life has been pretty smooth since it started. Sure, I have moved schools now and then due to living situations, but besides that, I was doing great. My grades were up, I had friends, I was running for class president,…
By the time my junior year came I was places in the continuation school four of my siblings had attended and two graduated from. When I started to attend that school I started to realize that it wasn’t for me. I didn’t want people knowing me for the reputation my brothers had put on themselves, I wanted to be my own person. In the middle of the school year, we ended up moving which caused me to receive no credit for the first semester. While I was at my new school I was certainly trying so much harder than the other two schools to get my grades up but unfortunately I wasn’t trying hard enough because I had started to have more personal problems again. When I had started my senior year at a new high school for the third time I was really upset with myself. I felt that I had let everyone down especially myself. I had started my last year of highschool with only ninety credits. When I had talked to my counselor she had told me that there was no way for me to be able to graduate this year unless I put all my effort in. I had realized that school may be hard but at the end the reward is so worth…

But then a group of girls came that their attitudes are very different to each other. I met them when I entered at Santa Isabel College. They were so friendly and easy to get along. This time, I became matured when it comes to have friends but then my bad attitude strikes again and I thought they will leave me just like my old friends. But, I was so wrong about it. They really are my true friends because they never leave my side and they correct everything in my life. I’ve finally overcome those bad attitudes that I have and I became stronger because of them. Believe it or not, I love my friends that I sometimes felt jealous for unknown reason and I know that they are not perfect that sometimes they are the reason why I’m sad and crying.…
Coming to college, I was terrified. I had no idea what to expect. I was about to be thrown into a brand new situation with people I did not know, and classes that I was not prepared for so I was worried about making new friends, but I eventually met many great people. Through friendship and the living environment in the freshman dorms such as Pritchard Hall at Virginia Tech, my group of friends has found a sense of place and community in our first year at school.…
My life is different today than what it was seven years ago. Seven years ago, I lived in my home country, Bangladesh, and now I am currently live in the United States of America. First of all, In Bangladesh, I was in middle school. Attending middle school wasn’t too hard. It was actually a bit fun. In middle school, I had less homework to do, and it was fairly since I did not have many responsibilities. Now I am in college, attending Macomb community college. I am getting really stressed out and having many types of difficulties. I am struggling to keep good grades and have lots of homework to do daily. I had many friends during my days in high school, but as I attended college, friends grew apart; now I am stuck with just a few. Secondly, I did not have any responsibilities seven years ago. But as an adult, now I have to learn to take care of many responsibilities and give my all to live successfully. I did not know how to even cook at the age of 15, but now I know how to cook pretty much everything. Finally, in Bangladesh, I did not need to drive since everything in my town was close. Living in America, on the other hand, I am forced to have transportation to get around. Therefore, I had to get my license to accomplish each day’s task. Many changes have occurred in the last seven years in my life; however, these changes made me live up and the face world daily.…
Some of us may like to forget our freshman year, but in general it is a time filled with anticipation, some anxiety, and wonderful discoveries. My first year of being a student was much interesting and amazing. Suffice to say that it was a bit stressful as everything was new for me, a new region and town and also new people to live with. My freshman experience definitely made an impression on me. Without any doubts, it was much dramatic for me as I had to live far away from home. The first thing I noticed was the workload. It was really heavier and more intense than I ever experienced before. Unlike school and the lyceum I studied at, I had to get used to the large volume of reading, the short deadlines and the writing. I had to be solely responsible for my own education. I thought that at the university will be like at school, but I was wrong. I wanted to improve my English and Ukrainian, that’s why I entered the Ukrainian Philology Department with the English specialization. Firstly, I want to say that I have a wonderful group which mostly consists of girls and I’ve got an opportunity to be always surrounded with girls I can talk to deciding the things about our study or just in general on different topics. Each of us has an aim which is to become a philologist. We have a lot of common interests like English, Internet, literature, music. We all understand that we will be together for five years and we should be like a family. Each of us is a personality, has an opinion and tries to prove that is the best. Before entering the university I was a pupil that finished the medical and biological lyceum. But now I am a student that wants to be a teacher, to be a success, and make my parents happy and proud of me. The first year of study is over long ago. Comparing this year with the previous one I can remark that I became more responsible, more adult. This year was very special because it was the first. Also I made a lot of…
Generally, I had a experienced on my past to leave home and arrive at the university. I found the difference in my expectations and the observations as soon as I attend this university. I got to know that there are also some smaller and beautiful cities in this country. After residing in this city, I made and cooperate with many friends from different nations with different races, religion, ethnics and so on. But I found no difference in them. I just gained an excessive and desrirable experience to talk with them. Not only this, I felt that I’m getting the most advanced education in an affordable cost than any other institutions in whole United States. I am feeling so much excitement to meet new friends, new lecturers and others. The another thing is that I m having a new food that differ from my previous food. I feel uneasy with them and I think that it will be as used to slowly. It was quite interesting to taste a new one before but not as a whole.…
Eventually, the second semester approached and my communication skills started to improve. As the result of this progress, I started to enjoy the ability to communicate with my classmates and I raised my hand more often in class; I no longer felt left out. I wanted to prove to myself that I could do anything with effort. Soon, I…
