I still remember the day when I first came to the college. Being a boy of 17,I was longing for a new life as a college student but at the same time, I had noidea what college life would be like.<br> That morning when the bus carried me to the gate of the college, I was soexcited that my heart was beating so fast it seemed as if it would leap out of mymouth. From then on, I would be a student of this college. After registration, agroup of students and I were led by an instructor to the dormitory, where, forthe first time, we were going to live without parents but with roommates. I was soclumsy that I did not know how to make the bed and fix the mosquito net.<br> In the afternoon, I took a walk around the campus together wth myroommates. To think of studying in such a beautiful place made me feel quiteproud of myself. As we ware walking along, talking and laughing, yelled, "Oh,look at those freshmen!" It was our middle-school students look that gave usaway. We continued our tour of the college, inspecting every building and everygarden until the sun began to set.<br> In the evening, we sat together, talking about the past and the future. Weware so excited that no one wanted to go to bed.<br> It was half past six, high time for our New Years Dinner. All the familygathered round the table, except for my mother who was busy cooking. She hadpromised earlier there would be twenty dishes for the Dinner this year. At lastshe came out from the kitchen, glowing with delight. "Lets begin !" said father,taking up his chopsticks. Plow delicious the dishes ware! Everyone praised andthanked mother.<br> After dinner, we were seated before the TV set. Jiang Kun, the well-knowncomic, presided over that nights programme, which was so exciting that eachperformance won warm applause from the audience. Particularly I appreciatedthe Chinese folk songs presented by some overseas singers.
