First Term: Good and Bad points

The first term of this year, the 2009, had a lot of new experiences for me, beginning with the fact that it’s my first term in the university.
First, it was a great change in my life because i wasn't (and still not) living in my city, Los Andes, because i had to move to Santiago. I was used to its calm way of living, and the absence of excesive pollution, so i had to readapt myself to this grey polluted big city.
I had five subjects: Introduction to Sociology, Antropology, Method I, Psycology and Contemporary World History. It was a big change in the way of studying, because i didn't studied as much as now at school, so i had to make a big effort to get into the rhythm of university. I had to read a lot of books, but i had the luck that i read some of them before, like Marx's books for example. So i learned a lot about my degree, and that made me really happy.
In this first term, in my free time i did some activities. First i wanted to work at university politics, so i contacted a friend from another university and started working together in a collective (that's what we call our organic structure). Then i met some people here in the university and they invited me to a study group, and i accepted, because they do a lot of interesant stuff. Besides this, i didn't do anything else, because i hadn't got more time to spent.
So that was my first term of the 2009, full of great changes in my life, meaning this all the aspects of life.
