Everybody started to laugh, me included, and we made fun cf him and his appetite. | didn't tell anybody what had actually happened and neither did he and we never discussed about this incident openly. Suffice to say that | never had problems with my. Sandwiches again! The only thing that | regret is that | couldn't find another way out without lying to anyone, 2. Well, what can | say? There is always something in your fe that makes you laugh, even if it's not nice for the others involved. | remember something that happened to my desk mate during a test paper in Chemistry. The teacher had asked us to place all our textbooks and copybooks and other materials on the floor so as not to copy anything from them during the test. We all did it and the test began, My desk mate is a tall pretty git who likes to wear fashionable clothes and shoes, even {| She sometimes looks more like a party goer. That day she was wearing very high- heeled sandals, and she was very proud of them. When she realised that she Had no clher way to open the copybook, she took off one of her sandals and she started to move the pages with her toes. | don't know how much she could read from that distance, but vehen the teacher announced that we had to finish and hand in the papers, she had totally forgotten that she had one sandal on and the other one off, and so she stood up, {00k the test paper in her hands, but when she tried to take a step towards the teacher, She accidentally stepped on the high-heeled sandal under her desk and fell between the ows of desks. We all started to laugh and she was about to cry because she had hurt herself quite badly, but | guess she immediately realised that by doing so the teacher imight want fo see what had exactly happened, so she rose quickly, made a funny face and gave me her paper to hand it in. ‘don't think the teacher had suspected anything because nothing was said and my desk- Imate aciually got a very good mark as far as | remember, but from that day on | would call her “the monkey git!’ because she was so good at grasping things with her toes! 12. One of the moments when | realised how important nature really is, was two years ago in the Bucegi mountains. | have to admit | am not the romantic type and although | had travelled alot unt then, | had never had the time to admire the landscape; | was only having fun with my friends or | was busy to compete with my brother... you know, who climbed faster or who was better at a game, Bul two years ago it was different. it was the first time | was climbing the mountain all by. myself, because my girifriend had left me a week before. | can‘ tell you how much that ‘mountain helped me then! 124 =—s> Beoegwas Bees seag- aa BSRSIFLEGS BSeTe soosergos ty classmates bolbag! | have jad got to eat pause | didn't vith me every ‘sandwiches, m grabbed a mel of garlic le fun of him id we never swith my ler way out you laugh, ied to my f materials Jit and the hoes, even very high- he had no dd to move tance, but » she had st00d up, B teacher, Ween the phad hurt teacher inny face my desk- I would toes! yo years though | vas only DW, who Prepare yourself for the BAC oxam Ai the beginning, | only wanted to be away from everything and everybody, especially as we had been together for more than a year and all of my friends were hers, too. And so I decided to take my gear and go up the mountain. I hadn't noticed most of the path, | was just walking along the old trail, when I suddenly stopped and looked around. All that silence, the air, the green, even the old path, made me realize that there is more to life than crying over lost relationships. And nature was just there to remind me that! It was an extraordinary experience and | came back home healed. | realized that life could be ‘So beautiful in even its tiniest pieces and that | should try to enjoy it as much as possible... feeling blue was definitely not the way to do it. I still do a lot of climbing and | still remember that feeling. 13. Unfortunately, | have had too many situations in my life in which | had to apologize for one bad thing or another, but | choose to talk about a funny incident. Itis related to my mom and her attempts to make a tidy person out of me. | have to admit that | am extremely untidy and my mother always shouted at me to clean my room and arrange my clothes in the closet, but most of the time | just ignored her pestering. | have never realized how annoying all this must have been for her. Until one day when my mom arrived home very upset from her job and when she entered my room and saw the mess inside couldn't bear it anymore and took all the clothes piled on my computer keyboard and the rest of my desk and just threw them out of the window! | couldn't believe my eyes! | immediately ran downstairs to pick them up, but not all of them had got on the ground: a lot had remained clinging on the branches of trees in front ‘of my block. | managed to take them out of there by borrowing a fishing rod from my girlfriend's father, but | had to stay at my window “fishing” them one by one while my friends, my girlfriend and the neighbours ... at their windows ... were making fun of me and were giving me “directions” on how to catch my “fish”. When she came home, | apologized for all times | ignored her words and promised I'd change. | can't say | have become a very tidy person, but ! never mess around in front of my mom now! Actually, | think that situation was the last time we had any argument whatsoever. 14. My passion is my guitar. Playing it, learning more songs and more rhythms is my favourite pastime. It both relaxes me and gives me a special sense of happiness and usefulness. It also brightens my day when I feel lonely or blue; my guitar seems to understand me much better than some of my friends. Let alone the joy my playing it gives to the others at parties or family reunions. 15. Going through an airport was a very exciting experience for me, especially for the first time. Not to mention the butterflies in my stomach at the thought that something may go wrong for one reason or Ill end my journey before even starting it. An airport is composed of the main lobby where the arriving and the departing flights are displayed. When the time comes, that is about an hour or two before the actual flight, the passengers are invited to check in and their luggage is weighed and checked and X-rayed and sometimes even opened, if the airport staff felt any foul play. This is why some of the flights can be delayed.
