My First Day at the University
When we were children we drew pictures of our future. For me, the way to achieve this picture was very difficult, but it made me more insistent to achieve my dreams. I was always waiting for that day when I would go to university and choose my major. I still remember the day clearly when my dream came true and I went to King Khaled University in Saudi Arabia for the first time. I loved everything that happened that day.
I woke up early even though I hadn’t slept very well at night. I ate my breakfast quickly so I would leave home early and arrive on time. On my way to the university, I had mixed feelings; I was very excited and worried and my heart could not stop pounding. When I arrived I was surprised, the campus was huge and it had a different design compared to my high school. There were a lot of students walking on campus. I could not describe my feelings at that moment, and I said to myself, “I will spend an outstanding time in this place.” I started walking between the campus buildings trying to find classroom; I didn’t know where to go. I said, “ Oh maybe I am lost.” After a while, I approached a girl and asked her, “Where do the new students go? ” She was kind and polite and she asked me to follow her so she could show me where to go. Finally, I found my class.
I went to my writing class, took my seat and waited for the teacher. I was trying to stay calm and cool. The class was quiet; after a while the teacher arrived. Not only did she introduce herself, but she also told us about the university’s policies and regulations. Then she started asking us about our majors. Meanwhile, I noticed that there were two girls in my class who had also chosen English education as their major. After hearing that, I felt more comfortable. Once the teacher left, I went to them and I introduced myself and we spent the entire day together.
My first day at the university was a memorable day. I will never forget anything that happened on that day. The two girls I met turned out to be the best friends I ever had. Moreover, my first day at the university was my first step toward achieving my dreams. I believe that having dreams and making them real is one of the greatest achievements that you can accomplish in your life.
