I would like to talk about my memorable story and it was the time I got accepted in the university. So after I finished high school about five years ago, I applied for a university to get my architecture degree and at that time I have taken a test or an exam to see if I could get in the university or not. So after I finished the exams, I waited one week for the results. So after one week, my dad called the university, phoned them and asked them about my results. I was so nervous watching him calling them but at that time, after my dad finished the talk, finished the poll, he turned around and told me that I was accepted in this university and there was only one test left to attend it. I was really excited at that moment because studying architecture was one of my passion and one of my dreams to do and to finish. At that time, I was so happy and it was really undescribable moment. I couldn’t have the right words to describe my feelings at that time. So I would say that this is one of my most memorable things that I would not forget about.
