Well, hi

I know it’s not really original to give my first story a name like this, but I’m actually a freshman here and in Linguistics University of Nizhny Novgorod too. There are lots of things I want to share and discuss with you, Reader. If you are not against it, of course. Two days ago our teacher gave us very first home assingment. We should have started blogs on this website by next monday to practice our English skills probably. To make our lives easier our teacher enclosed a list of questions we should answer in our first publications. My first one will be short because I don’t want to bore you. Today I’m going to answer just one question from the list.

Aaaaaand the first one is: Why am I here (at the Linguistics University of Nizhny Novgorod)?

Let me start from the very begining. As long as I remember myself I’ve always wanted to be special. Not the best as you may think, just not like everybody. After a few years of research I understood that I hate sports, don’t have beautiful voice or a dancing talent. My power was in my brain. But still I wasn’t the smartest at school. Now I know that you are special anyway, but it’s another story. In school I’ve been trying to learn all the subjects. Some of them were understandable, some weren’t easy. Biology and Physics didn’t ‘fit’ so I could realize that I’m not going to be a scientist or doctor. At all.

But English language was bigger than just lesson. It was a new opportunity for me. Soon after start I became one of the best. Two years ago when the time to choose the direction of my life came I had already known that English is my way to become special. And the only university that could provide me a proper level of language was…(try to guess)…yeah, right! It’s the LUNN!

So I’ve chosen the university. And the only problem was which faculty I should choose. I didn’t know it then. But I know it now. Spoiler!!! it’s International Relations.

Well, I think that’s enough for today. Hope you enjoyed it

Wish me luck and good luck to you

Yours, A New One
