03.10.2017 Some days ago I came up with idea to start writing in English in order to not forget it at all. In my university English courses start only in two semesters, so it seems to be a whole year without practicing the language. I just want to practice a little bit and to share some of my thoughts. I will be glad if someone likes my texts and if native speakers check them and write me my mistakes (I'm sure I've already done some). Let's start! I've spoken to some students and they've said they go to sleep very late. It could be 1 am, 2 am and even later! And I was the same until I was accepted to a boarding school. The timetable said we should be in our beds at 11 pm. I usually did not. But anyway, the year lived by timetable - and now I don't go to sleep so lately. I think it would be logical if I write a little about living in a boarding school. I studied a year in one of the physics and mathematics school in Russia. It was a great experience for me. I lived without parents, they were far away from the city where the school is based. There we studied like students in universities - lectures and seminars system, passing the sessions and so on. We ate in canteen (I actually almost didn't because I don't really like the food there. that's why I lost 6 kg) and lived in dormitories. Dormitories. I had a strong feeling that I lived in a hall. Of course we had doors, but we couldn't close them, so everyone could go into your room at any time. Maybe it seems to be like in usual student dormitories, BUT don't forget, mine was where 16-18 years old teenagers lived, so we were under 24/7 watching of teachers. So we couldn't go out or in dormitories from 10 pm to 7 am, we should be sleeping from 11 pm to 7 am and we should clean our rooms everyday and it was checked ALL the time. Of course no boys(girls) in girls (boys) room after 10.30 pm. It seems like I'm telling a story about a camp. But living 2-3 weeks and 1-2 years in this conditions is different. For me. Boys usually are absolutely excited about living in dormitories)) I think it's all for today. I can write something else about my boarding school if someone wants. I hope I will find time tomorrow to write again. *should i say bye?*
