My day at University


It is Monday again, so as always I feel very lazy. I could sleep until the evening but unfortunately I have to get up at 6 o'clock almost every morning because I have to go to University.Our first lecture was LTA, so we had to analyse the text we read at home. It wasn't very difficult, but also it wasn't so easy as I thought it will be :D The second lecture was grammar and we had a test. I think I won't say anything more about it... Furthermore, on DAK lecture we had a sort of discussion about dating, so everyone had an opportunity to say one's opinion about it. So today lectures weren't wery hard (well, except Grammar test).After that I was going home, so that's it from me :)

    What is friendship?

    What is friendship? Friendship is a word used to describe lots of kinds of personal relationship. It is necessary in every human's life. There are many valuable things in life, but friendship can be the most important. Life is so short so we need someone to share our thoughts and feelings.
    Personally I understand friendship as a relationship between two people who like each other,  have same interests, hobbies, and who don't turn away when other needs help. It is said that if you had never been angry with your friend, then it is not your real friend. Loyalty and understanding must become primary subjects in every friendship. Without them, for whatever reason tiffed friends could never reconcile. We all do mistakes so we should feel another's shoes and try to forgive one another.
    Secondly, friendship should be true not false. For this we need loyal friends which respect us. People should be able to count on their friends. Friends come and go but finding a best friend doesn't always come so easily. You can always say that you  know lots of people, but is there at least one person who you can describe as a real friend?
    Thirdly, I can be proud of a fact that I have a real friend. I was telling once about my best friend Kristina which understands, helps, accompanies,makes me laugh everytime we spend time together. In short words, I feel relieved that I am not alone in this world (excluding my family). Plus, when I started learning in University I met lots of kind people, so I think that I will be able to count on them too.
    To sum up all, I can say that we all should cherish friendship and first of all our friends who are determined to do everything for us. We can always meet lots of people, bet we not always can count them as our friends. People sometimes are naive so the first believe is deceptive. Be careful, and never give up a true friendship.

The strange feeling of love

 Today's DAK lecture was really unusual, because we were talking about love. I liked this lesson,because it was very interesting to know what other students in our group think about love. We had a task in which we had to choose a quotation and explain how do we understand it. I have chosen a Oliver Wendell Holmes's quotation which says: Love is the master key that opens the gate of happiness. To explain the meaning of this quotation wasn't very hard, because I think we all know that when love reaches us, we start to think positively  about everything and that makes us happier. Anyway, after writing we had to exchange our paragraphs and correct the mistakes. It wasn't easy but I managed somehow to correct those mistakes. Personally I think that today was one of the most interesting lectures of  DAK  :)

How to write correctly English?

http://www.write-better-english.com/

In this article has been written how people can write better English. There are 4 steps of improving your writing skills:

1. Vocabulary improvement.
It means that if you want to write correctly English, you must read interesting books and communicate with people who can speak English fluently. Also you must use a vocabulary if you do not know the definition of some kind of word.

2. Spelling improvement.
It means that if you can spell correctly, then you can write correctly.

3.Improvement of your reading skills.
It means that sometimes you must read other people's writing because then you can see all the mistakes they have done and then improve your own writing.

4. Improvement of grammar.
It means that first of all you shoul know the meaning of parts of speech and learn basics of punctuation.

   I agree with all these mentioned tips, because it is the best way to learn write better not only English but also other languages. It is impossible to achieve good results if people are lazy and do not want to learn anything. Of corse we can say that some of us are working all day and don't have time for such things but in my opinion at least few hours should be found.
   Moreover, English grammar  is difficult to learn, so if you have someone who can help you, then you should seek for help. But if you don't, then there is better way - language courses. It costs money, but it is really worth to try. Besides there will be an access to professional help which you won't get at home.
 All in all I can say that it is difficult to learn write correctly English, but it is worth to do so because lots of people nowadays speak English, also there is greater opportunity to find a job in foreign countries.

Today is Friday and I already feel tired. I admit that I didn't go to the University today, but I still feel exhausted. I' m tired because yesterday in the evening my sister, my cousin and I were watching a very interesting film and we didn't want to go to sleep.
I got up at 9 o'clock today. Of course, I could sleep much longer, but I heard when my cousin was preparing to go to work so I couldn't sleep after that. When I got up, I went for a bath, then I dressed up and had breakfast. After breakfast I turned on my computer and I spent my rest of the day in front of it. Then at 12 o'clock my sister came back and then I was no longer alone. In spite of this I had to go to the Vilnus. Now I am sitting in this class and writing about my boring day.
