Studying anniversary: one month at university

Here should be something fun and extra creative, but probably one month is not enough for mastering this skill :D

September, by the way, was really fast for me, but of course it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t full of emotions and new knowledge. Now I know some vital, useful things which help me in daily routine. Here is the list of them.

✿Student transport card is a great savior of budget.

Now I can go wherever I want just using this card, and that’s a great opportunity to visit lots of nice places of this incredibly beautiful city. Now I should find time for it, but that’s another story.

✿It is ok to wake up at 5:20.

I took a whole month to get used to waking up so early, but seems to me that I will never be used to it. Maybe once, when I’m a retiree, I will be waking up and 4am and will be distutbing my sleepy relatives just for fun (kidding), but now I’m sleepy all the time.

✿It’s better to get to the university a half earlier just to avoid a traffic jam.

Traffic jams of Nizhny Novgorod is daily horrible process, and nobody wants to be a part of this. Although I experience them at least twice a week, it’s better to be in time. As one videobloger said, “When you’re in time, you’re on time, but when you’re on time, you’re late”.

✿Good sleep is important, so it’s good to fall asleep at the same time.

I go for bed at 11pm. My little whiner is a litte bit dissatisdied, but to tell the truth, that’s fine. Usually I sleep for 6 hours, and I think it’s great (I know some people who have too little sleep).

✿You’re amazingly smart man if you do your future homework for advance.

I’m not “amazingy smart yet”, but I hope I’ll become this person. But now is almost 9³⁰pm, and I’m still doing this homework. Probabply my time management needs improvement, haha:D

✿Don’t forget to bring important notebooks.

Just my experience. Last week I was too confident — I did all my homework and decided to watch a TV show. The last statement of homework like “don’t forget to bring the second part of an American Accent training” was simply forgotten. Fortunately, that notebook wasn’t needed that day, but now I take this book every day :D

Every my classmate who reads this: congratulations! The first month of studying passed. We became smarter (I hope so) and in the near future we will develop our language skills even better!
