University 2nd Place Essay: Becoming a Successful University Student
As a senior, I would like to share advice on how to become a successful first year student at my university. First, make full use of the library. At my university, there is a library that is open 24 hours a day. Because of its unique architecture, it has even become a local tourist attraction. However, for students, this place is the key to having a happy day at the university. The library has books written not only in Japanese but also in other languages such as English, French, and Russian. There are even picture books which are perfect for trying a new language. In your first year, I recommend finding a good seat in the library and making a habit of studying while enjoying a calming drink. Personally, I love sitting by the window on rainy days. Sometimes, if you are lucky, you can see a bear outside. (149 words) By Miu You can send me a comment or your own story at jaremaga@gmail.com
