The first narrative composition - a situation when we were lucky / You got lucky
,,Silly to be , good look to you ! ”
It was Tuesday. A typical school day. I did not have heavy classes, but my biggest fear was at first time, at geography. I did not learn anything because I had not had time. I wanted my teacher not to listen at the map.
The bell rang. In a few minutes, the lady came to the classroom. I was scared. She noticed absences for those who were not present at the time. The first tested pupil was announced. It was not me . What a relief !Firstly... Dumitru, this is the name of the clasmatte who answer . He was asked what the title of the lesson is called. He responded clearly and resolutely : "The Terrestrial ". Then he showed the major, medium and minor tectonic plates on the map. Interestingly, I could not identify all the specific items so well and in a short time . I was glad for him because he was successful .
Teacher always works on a very high level; many of the questions are not included of the lesson taught in the notebook. To answer questions, we must have a well formed general culture. She often entangle our classmate, asking him many difficult questions. He, being passionate about history and, of course, geography, was able to answer all the questions . He had little hesitations, but the new mark at the end provided him with a great result.
The following pupils were tested through rock and mineral types. They could not learn because we always have an extremely crowded program. They did not recognize the continent and its specific countries on the map. The lithological forms of the relief were taught in the notebook briefly. Teacher asked many supplementary questions to check our perspicacity. Pupils did not answer any simple question . It noticed on their faces that they will fail the hard questions with ,,congratulations ” . They received the mark entitled ,, three ” . They were pretty disappointed, but that's it! That's the high-school life! It is important, I think, to discover your vocation and your fundamental skills. To evolve how well you can !
Just a quarter of an hour and the terrible time of geography end .Seeing that there is very little time until the end of the hour, I calmed down. The teacher did not have time to test me . To my disappointment, Miss Professor opened the catalogue again and told me to go to the blackboard . Oooo, bad luck !!!!!!!!! I knew nothing , and then it was the "right time" to prove it! I was evaluated, of course, from several scientific notions and applicative exercises. I did not know how to answer correctly at all.My classmates gave me none help, no one said anything. Oh my god !!!!
I have not been expecting since then a reasonable average. I did not think I would take a pass mark. Everything was shattered because of that unpredictable moment.
"What are the external agents of volcanic relief? "," What are the geographical landmarks for measuring and representing terrestrial space? "- these are just a few of the thousands of questions that intimidated me and struck me all of a lot . I was in an extreme situation ...
Suddenly, something inevitable happened. The bell was heard. And the whole oral evaluation was not over and done with. The geography teacher says, "You were lucky! I'm gonna test you the next hour, I have not finished the whole evaluation for you, I can not put you a mark! ” etc. What a joy for me! I got rid of the big torture ! I was lucky . I felt relieved. .
From this incident, I learned that it is important to be prepared for any situation... anytime, anywhere and anyway.From then, I have learned constantly at all the subjects not to have any unpleasant experiences of this type. I remembered a popular quote that fit perfectly with what I lived on that day: ” Silly to be , good luck to you ! " .
