LOCATION: FLC, Sibiu

Yesterday I graduated from the English course at the Foreign Language Center in Sibiu. It was a very interesting experience and I learnt a lot of new and valuable things. Yesterday afternoon we had the graduation ceremony, and before that we had to take the final exam, which was very difficult and lasted for 3 hours. During the graduation day, we had a very big ceremony with all the students that graduated that day and all the teachers and other guests, friends and family. During the course I made a very good friend which I still keep in touch with. He is from Timisoara and is also a lieutenant, like me. He is 25 years old, a tall, athletic person. He is a blue-eyed, dark-haired, very charming man. He proved to be a very good colleague, a very sociable and reliable person; he helped me a lot throughout the course. I consider that this course was very challenging but also a good and beneficial experience for me, in the light of my future career. Now, I have better chances to go on a mission or on a course abroad. I recommend that this course be followed by military personnel in need of improving their English knowledge and skills.
