First University Life

This is first time I do "University Life". I don' t have any ideas about it. Yesterday afternoon, I saw many people enjoyed room152. I was not sure what happened in it. It looked like a party because I saw people sit with round tables and some food were prepared in square table.
"Cultural Gala", I saw a big title in poster in front of the class. I felt some timid, so I just stood at outside and listened someone lecture in the podium. I learned some cultural about Italian. Most of information were about bollywood dancing. I thought that bollywood dancing is one kind of dancing in the bollywood films, but I checked it in internet and my idea is not completely correct. Bollywood dancing is kind of another name of Indian dancing. After introduction, many people wanted to try bollywood dancing and enjoyed their food. I don't like Indian food any more because I don't like its smell.
From yesterday's gala, I find University life is very interesting. I can learn more different things and don't timid to join them. I will do well prepare for the next University Life.

I'm glad you were able to get something from that cultural gala -- there will probably be other events like that to see during the term, from other groups of students.

It is especially useful to find someone to talk to what you go to these events. Sometimes it helps to go with a classmate or two -- that way you don't have to feel as self-conscious and it can be easier to start a converation with people.

Have you ever seen any movies by the Indian-Canadian director Deepa Mehta? She made "Bollywood/Hooolywood," which is a comedy, and also "Water," which is a huge drama. Both are good movies, if you are curious about India (and Indai and Canada).
