A typical situation I faced was when I first entered my university life, to take admission in it. I went with my brother, but he couldn’t enter in the university with me, because it was an old girls university, and nobody was allowed to enter there. And, uh, when I went in as an, I’m, um, an introvert, and I’m very shy, I couldn’t find and then my direction to the admission center, um, my university. So I took quite a lot of time to find my department, to submit my documents, and when I finally found it, it was the closing time, so I had to come back, and then I went in again with my sister, Nste. And then we continued to our university life. When I first entered it, it was difficult for me to make friends, as I’m an introvert, and it takes a lot of courage for me to talk to others. And the classes was also in different areas. When I wasn in college, the classes, all them happened in only one class, but in university, I had to find the classes as well. Some class will be in floor one, and some will be in floor two, so we had to shift again and again. And the notes were also quite difficult to take, because they made bullet points only and taste walk very fast with teachers. So, yeah, ah, it was altogether difficult experience for me to adjust to my university life, but I got through it, uh, with time.

A typical situation I faced was when I first entered my university life to take admission. I went with my brother, but he couldn't enter the university with me because it was an all-girls university, and nobody was allowed to enter there. When I went in, as I'm an introvert and very shy, I couldn't find my way to the admission center of my university. So, I took quite a lot of time to find my department to submit my documents, and when I finally found it, it was closing time, so I had to come back. Then I went in again with my sister, Nste, and we continued our university life. When I first entered, it was difficult for me to make friends, as I'm an introvert, and it takes a lot of courage for me to talk to others. The classes were also in different areas. When I was in college, all the classes happened in only one room, but in university, I had to find the classes as well. Some classes were on the first floor, and some were on the second floor, so we had to shift again and again. The notes were also quite difficult to take because they made bullet points only, and the teachers walked very fast. So, it was altogether a difficult experience for me to adjust to my university life, but I got through it with time.
