CEPA exam

Last year…as the time same time as this, I was concern about the CEPA exam. Some friends of mine told me that this exam is not really important. But something inside me told me to take seriously….

I woke up at 6 am – thanks to my Dad-… I was so exited to go to ZU even though I am not a student there. My father took me there with my brother… when I arrived there it was 7 am!!!... I was one of the first students to get in there. when I get in gate A… one of the teachers told me to go to gate D and I did. My father left me there and told me that he will come to pick me up at 10 am.

I waited about 15 min outside the university before they ask us to come in and I don’t know why??…I was surprised to see some of my school friends there… first I went to N building to let them chick my identity. They gave me my exam’s location which was in the auditorium, Row B.

The exam did not start at 8 am as it was planned because some students did not arrive yet. When it was the time to fell the paper.. I found it difficult to do so.. I asked help from one of the teacher Mr. S – I did not know his name back then-.. he was the first teacher who I acutely talked to in ZU.

I was surprised about the questions!!... they were easier that I could expect!!... and the essay was about our favorite animal – I wrote about cats J-!!.. I wanted to laugh but I realized that I am in the middle of the exam!

When I finished the exam Mr. A – I did not know his name back then either- took the paper from me. He said “see you in September”.. I smiled and without looking at him I said- I WAS shy- “You will!”

I went outside to see my brother waiting for me. “how was??” my father asked me after I get in the car… “easy!”… I was so happy to find the exam so easy and to meet new people… and I was looking forward to be a student in ZU.

Amazin Day in JPS

I did not like kids before I thought that they are so noisy and have one job in life which is CRYING ALL THE TIME!.... and when Mr. B told us – me and my friends-that the JPS is making a day for UAE culture, I did not want to go at the first place but I changed my mind and I don’t know how..

I begged my grandma to let me take the old stuff which she have… and with a help of my Dad she agreed – God bless my Dad-…. I took an old necklace of my granny, an old sword and other things.

In that day, I went to the bus with my friends but my teacher was not there. He told us in the day before that he will go to the school first. When I reached the school I was amazed by children who were wearing Emeriti’s traditional clothes, the camels which were brought and the old Bedouin tent.

I and one of my friends went to one of the classes… I met the teacher Ms. M, she was so nice and kind. Then I started talking to the kids… the surprising thing was.. that I did not dislike those kids, maybe because I did not spend time with group of children before.

The boys liked the sword I brought and they were fighting to hold it. The girls loved the necklace, and each girl wanted to wear it… and all of them did.

When I showed the sword to Mr. B… he said that he heard -from one of the teachers- of the lady who had a sword… I knew that that teacher’s name was Mr. D – a teacher in that school-.
I really enjoyed my day in that school with those kids and their teachers… especially Ms. M…. that was a day that I will keep in my mind…IT WAS AMA

My Feelings In That Day...

7:08 am, I am now near the city center –Ajman-, moving to my fifth experience of the TOEFL…. After almost 2 and half hours I will be sitting in the Auditorium, waiting for Mr. Dan’s usual directions for the exam…. What I am feeling right now??... afraid?? No, happy?? No… excited??..Well..Maybe.. I think that its because of my good preparation for this exam… I have been preparing for this TOEFL thing for one month and a half.

7:14 am, I am near Sharjah.. the traffic is so terrible –hmm its better to go back to UAQ- everybody were quiet in the beginning of this day but they are talking now… my friend M is so quiet today… she barely talk.. I don’t blame her at all, I was like her in the beginning… but now I know that its just a piece of paper.. an important piece of paper… but this time I will never allow to beat me I WILL BEAT IT.

7:25 am, I am going to kill this driver one day, he is driving too fast!!!.... I do not want to die today!!... I have a TOEFL exam waiting for me to get my hands on!... this driver driving too fast because there is no more traffic in the way-until now-. I am in Sharjah…oh oh I have to charge my laptop… I guess I have to wait until I reach the university to do that.

8:02 am, I just arrived to the university.. the weather is really fine, I am a little bet nervous I can feel my heart start to beat faster and faster… its normal everything will be fine….. I just met my friend R she asked me about my feelings… I said “I believe it’s strong”.

2:28 am, I am drinking my orange juice and writing at the same time…. after 30 min I should be in the auditorium because my love is waiting for me- yeah sure-…. I am calm right now… I feel as it’s a normal day… I feel different this time… it’s the first time that I am looking forward to do the exam… I did not have that confidence in myself before…everything will be fine

8:42 am, I will put my laptop with my friend then I will go to the auditorium… everything will be fine

Winter Sonata

This is a title of a Korean show –with subtitles in English-… this show ached, hurted, melted and broke my heart and made me cry for a long.. long time…

Ms. S asked me if I want to see a drama show… and I was glad to accept her offer… it is really THE BEST show that I ever seen.

It tells a story about 2 students in high school who fall in love. The tragedy begins when the guy – Joon Sang- died in a car accident leaving the girl - Yu Jin- depressed in sorrow…

After 10 years.. Yu Jin find a guy- lee- who looks exactly like her first love… the problem that the girl is engaged to a guy-Sang Hyuk- who knows here since she was 8, and because he know about Yu’s love for Joon sang he will try his best to make his fiancée away from lee who reminds her of Joon Sang.

The story gets more complicated when Yu Jin discover that lee is Joon Sang. But every thing will look more complicated when there is a fair that Yu Jin and Joon Sang are half- brother and sister.

The story is really AMAZING!!!... I just saw 10 episodes but they are actually 30!... I will get them from Ms. S next week and I am looking forward to it… and I am really thankful for Ms.S for her kindness :)

This show contains amazing sound tracks, cool songs, good acting and good looking actors… I really recommend this show it’s really this best thing that I ever seen..
