Corrected version of my writing task of PC1

Hey guys!

As the original version of my writing task of PC1 wasn't really good I tried to correct it as good as possible. This it what it looks like now:

Studying at the Department of Translation can be very challenging. Not only do you have to be a determined learner as you have much more freedom at university than in school but you also have to be well-organised in order not to get stressed right before an exam because you forgot to study. At university everything is your own business, nobody reminds you of something. The fact that you are studying two languages at the same time is also challenging. Vocabulary has to be revised and widened as much as grammar and the pronunciation of the different words - which can be very challenging if you have to study vocabulary in two different languages at the same time. There are of course many more challenges a student has to get through but I think I personally need challenges to keep being motivated - this is why I like studying at the Department of Translation!

Guys being young again - what a pleasure to watch! :)

Hey guys!

One week ago my boyfriend and one of his friends bought themselves a "Carrera Racetrack". 



It was such a pleasure for me to watch them both put the pieces together. They acted like two children on Christmas Eve! :)




At first they didn't want me to take photos but I still couldn't resist and afterwards they were ok with it so I decided to tell you guys about it!


After having read the instructions for use they started to put the pieces together. I couldn't have done that - for me it was looking soooo complicated! Or is it just me? Maybe because I'm a woman? What do you think?


When they were finished they started driving with the miniature cars which belong to the racetrack. My boyfriend chose the "Blue Danger" so his friend had to take the yellow one. I also couldn't resist and after they were done batteling one another I decided to challenge my boyfriend....I lost. But it was very much fun though :)












On these two pictures you can see the two cars and the racetrack with two loopings. You may think it's easy to drive a miniature car through a looping. I tell you: it's not. 

If you ever have the chance to get a racetrack then buy it. It's worth the money and I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun :D
