Wonderful University Life Writing essay 01-3

This time, I will talk about my university life. I have two important points in my university life. I spend a good time because of these two points.The two points are... English lounge and my friends!! Well, let me talk about it!!

First, I will tell you why I go to English lounge. I want to level up my English skill. I took a TOEIC as soon as I entered university. However it was so terrible score. I was shocked so I decided to study harder. When I was a first year, I didn't know how to study in order to be good at English. I just took the class, and did my homework, but it was not enough.

One day, my teacher advised to attend the "English Weekend". It was a chance I could speak and listen to English a lot, so I made my mind to attend it. There were many exchanged students and I could talked with them. I could meet a new friends. And then, I heard about English lounge there. I thought to speak English in daily life is good training. Since then, I have visited English lounge. At first, I couldn't speak much, but I noticed it is important to tell what I am thinking as I have visited there, so I try to speak more now. Because of it, I can speak and listen to English better than before. Nowadays, I am looking forward to talk with exchanged students. If there were not English lounge, I would not enjoy my university life.

Second, I will talk about my friends. My friends are good at English, so I respect them. We often exchange the information, study and eat lunch together, encourage each other. I study for TOEFL with my friends. They try hard toward their own goals, the goal is same as mine. We want to go abroad. In my case, I need more points for TOEFL. Sometimes, I am really disappointed. However, all of them always keep trying, so I can build up my enthusiasm. I sometimes hung out with them and have a good time.

And then, I must not forget that one of my friend always help me. We have known since we were high school students. Most of days, we stay together. I like to spend time at bakery with her. When I was sad, she always encourage me. I have feeling gratitude for her so much.

I have a great university life because of English lounge and my friends. I can study English in a wonderful environment and enjoy my free time. My university life is so busy and I must study harder because I have a lot of things I want to learn. Since I talk with exchanged students, I have been interested in cross culture. That mean English lounge gave me new friends, and they gave me new purpose in my university life. Therefore it is important for me to spend the time in English lounge with my friends!!

It is not too much to say that my university life start from English weekend. It was good experience for me. Nowadays, I can’t study for TOEFL enough because I have a lot of things to do. I only study it with you on Thursday. I have to do try more, I know.

However I try to go English lounge as possible as I can in order to train my speaking skill. I also not good at speaking, but everyone listen to me hard , so you don't worry about it. It is important to try to talk in English. Whether you are good at speaking or not, it is not problem, I think. I want to talk with many people, so please come to English lounge.

I study English because I want to work by using English. I like to communicate with people, and I an interested in Foreign culture. I hope I an work in other country. I need more study.
