Three months later

It's Christmas time...so it's already three months since the university year started. At first, I have to admit that I found it difficult to adapt myself to the university, since everything was new for me.

First of all, I had always gone to school or high school in my town, and it was usually very close to my home. In fact, to get to the high school where I had gone the last five years I only had to cross two streets. Now this has changed a lot...First, I have to go from my home to the train station. That takes about 7-8 minutes. I catch the train from Vila-real to Castelló (special thanks to Renfe for being late most times), about 10 minutes more. Then, when I arrive in Castelló, I take the tramway or I walk to the university if I have time enough. I know it's not that much, but it makes a big difference compared with my old ways to school.

The timetable was also strange...it was different each day! At school, it was more or less the same every day...Now at uni, on Mondays classes started at 8 in the morning until 3 o'clock, and on Wednesdays I only had a class, from 15 to 17...this was going to make me go mad. Luckily, in the 2nd semester it'll be more “normal”.

Obviously, university lessons weren't the same as school lessons...A class with 100 students? I had never seen this before! Now at Uni, I had less everyday-homework, but more long works...
And finally, the people...I didn't know anybody at all! The first week was maybe a bit hard, but I was lucky and I started talking to some people and knowing them...today, I have good relationships with a nice group of students, so this went better than what I thought.

In conclusion, I'd say I'm quite happy at uni now, I like this grade and for the moment it's going well...I hope it goes on like this (or better)!
