Advantages of going to the university in the evenings.
It was a long time ago that I used to go to college in the mornings. I remember that I picked that option because it was the normal thing to do. Everyone who graduated and went to university liked to keep the old habits and continue to wake up very early. Perharps we were afraid to try the new possibilities.
Nevertheless, it didn't take me too long to realize that I could have a better life by just changing my timetable. And then, in the second year of my stay at the university, I made a decision that would change my live forever: to attend in the evenings.
I did not have to wake up early because of obligation anymore, I only had to get up early if I wanted to. I didn't have to eat my breakfast quickly and in a bad mood anymore, because now I had plenty of time for that. When I finished my classes I could go with my classmates and hang out instead to coming back home because I was starving. And last but not least, people are friendlier when they have slept well!** In the U.S. we refer to "university" as "college"
** Great use of "nevertheless" and the correct form of "too"
I agree with all of this. I HATE mornings. Everything is better in the evening.

Today was very funny. While I was writing my name just now, I discovered a mouse in my drawers. It was quite a surprise and I smiled . Damn mouse bit into my two packs of snacks. My colleagues were laughing. The mouse was very greedy. When I go to home next time, I must lock the cabinets.

Why don`t we help each other?
When I was in school, I didn`t see people in the right way. I thought that all the people love to help and don't like to see others suffer from any thing, but when I grew up I realized that this was not the case. Only a few people care about each other and want to help. When I though about this issue I got upset and promised myself that I'll help people and try to make them happy. I started to do some charitable things and this makes me so proud of myself. In conclusion, can anyone tell me why other people don`t like to help each other?
Just a note - when you are referring to yourself you need to put the "my" and "self" together. "myself"
Also, try not to use the word "things" when you are writing a paper. Try to come up for the word you are describing. For exampe, instead of saying "charitable things" why don't you list out some of the things you have been doing. All in all, great job!

Hi folks, I'm living in Israel now, in Tel-Aviv, on a student campus. I arrived here less two weeks ago, and now I have dual citizenship and all of my accompanying papers. We learn hebrew five days a week from 8:15 to 12:30. There are people all over the whe world in our groups: Spain, France, USA, Brazil...
Before this I lived in Israel for about eleven mounth on Masa program, that was fun. I was in two programs, the first called Sport-Extreme. It was in Nitzana hamlet, in the Negev desert. It is near the Egyptian border. Second, "Ofek" was in kibbutz between Askelon and Asdod. In the middle, and espеcially at the end of the program, I was very homesick because I love my city and i was waiting to go back impatiently. I thought to just jump from a plane and run to the Hermitage. That would be fun! Instead, I just walked a couple of days in a centre, and dropped in to see St. Isaac's and Kazan Cathedrals. I lived in my hometown for two month and now I'm back in Israel.
I can write much more, but I'm too lazy.

Hello everyone. My name is Giang. I come am from Vietnam and I live in Ninh Binh city. I'm 23 years old. Last year, I graduated from Ha Noi university of Business and Technology. Now, I'm an accountant and I work at a limited liability company in the field of telecommunications. My favorite things are watching film (could also use "movies"), going out with my friends, listening to music, etc. I want to make friends with people from all over the world and i want to find a language partner who can help me.
In the United States we say "watching movies" instead of "watching film".

When referring to the study of English, I sometimes want to use a metaphor crawling along.
If we go ahead on crawling along,we should remember to use both arms by turns.
In case If we move forward with only one arm,you don't advance well or get too much tired.
As for studying English,the way that we lesson learn only by reading is inefficiently so we should use several trainings such as reading,grammar,listening,writing, and conversation...
Come to think of it,the arms of English are too much:studying English is far more difficult from crawling along in terms of an amount which we must do.
Though perhaps you will say ''that is a matter of opinion'',I want to praise you as your arms of English are well-muscled already!- Great use of "too" instead of "to" - you did that perfectly! When using "too" you do not have to add "much".
- When listing off items in a sentence (reading, grammar, listening, writing) use "and" before the last item you are listing.

Imagine a big business center. I am sure there are many of these buildings around you in your city. What do you think about those buildings? Is it a good place for you to have a job?
According me, I would like to work in the building like those high buildings in Moscow, which I see every day when I am going somewhere. I like modern office buildings. The atmosphere there is different than in another place. When you work in a modern business structure you can make stuff contemporary, while sitting in historical place, even if that is beautiful and very significant does not give off this feeling. You will think in an improved way and feel the difference. It is all about energy. In my opinion it is more suitable for businessmen to work in modern, big buildings.
And what about you? Where is the place you want to work in?** "then" means "at that time" while "than" is used when making comparisons.
** use "can" instead of "can't" because being in a modern building does help a person come up with contemporary ideas
I personally would like to work with children as a social worker.
