My day
Today, during the DAK lecture, we had to talk about relationships in literature. All presentations were very interesting, but I most liked Gabriele's presentation, because it was different, than others, interesting and informative. It is sad, that there were no time left for me to represent my topic. At first I was a bit afraid, because i thought, that i have done my task wrong, but in the end I just got used to the fact, that i always do something wrong. of course, I have a chance to correct my topic, but i won't do that, because it would be not fair, that i have a chance, and all the rest doesn't.

Relationships in literature
- Most of the themes of classical literature are about some kind of relationships. One of the most popular is love. The reasons why do authors write about this feeling is because the readers prefer reading some beautiful story, it is easy to write about love and because love has always been a mystery.
- First of all, nobody likes to read about bad or unpleasant things. Meantime, that warm and wonderful feeling of love is just the right thing to write about. Love stories can include various difficulties, passion, tragedy and even wars, so if writer chooses to create a story about two lovers, he will never lack of ideas, and the story will be interesting and intriguing. By the way, it is very pleasant to read about love, because we are all dreaming to find our true love, our soul mate.
- Secondly, it is very easy to write about something that you have felt yourself. And, I heard, that the best way to write a good story is to write something that you know very well. I am quite sure, that most of the writers have been fallen in love at least one time during their lifetime. Also, we all can see the signs of love in our everyday life. Of course, writer rarely reveals his own love story, so he have a chance to improve, embellish that real feeling, and turn it into perfect, but sadly, impossible relation between two ordinary people, who are made special just adding some love between them. Also, we can add some adventures, some dreams from our life, some negative aspects. And there we have a primitive love story, which can intrigue readers to choose it and read it.
- A last, but not least reason is that love has always been a mystery. And it is a fact, that the less we know about something, the more we want to know about it. It is simply curiosity. And really, what is love? We know that it is a feeling, it is between two people, and it is warm and strong. But we are unaware neither why we feel this feeling, nor what we can do for the sake of our beloved ones or even how strong we can love. This mystery intrigues and motivates writers to search for the answers, and type them into the pages of a book.
- A lot of types of relationships are described in the literature, but the most popular and intriguing is love. We all know famous drama “Romeo and Juliet” written by Shakespeare. This love story, like many other, inspires us to do anything for love, teaches how we should love, but warns us to be more cautious about not loosing our minds and doing something wrong. We are interested in reading such stories because of lack of romance in our everyday life. It is easy to write and to read about love, and it is hard to find a story, in which love or some certain kind of love wouldn’t be mentioned. And, thank God, that writers helps us to cherish, to enrich our feelings, because without such example, we would loose the importance of love, like we loose other relations with the world.

My day at university...
Tody was a very nice day. Phonetic lecture was really fun, because we had to create funny dialogs about some mistake of pronunciation and read them. Of course, everybody was faughing. The winner dialogue was about the man, who was stunged by bees, and was dedicated to pronunciation of letter 'h'. Another lecture was profesional speach culture. In groups we had to introduce mistakes of using cases. All presentations were good, but not very interesting. So the day was quite easy, and I enjoyed all lectures, what is quite rare.

What is friendship?
Friendship is a relation between friends. And it is one of the most beautiful feelings. Nobody really knows why do people try to find a true friend. There can be few reasons: they want to have a person who is similar to them, whose hobbies are the same, they want to have somebody to trust, to have a shoulder to cry, and, lastly, they just want to communicate with outside world, but not all of the people are worth to be called friends.
First of all, all our life we are searching for somebody who have same interests like we do. Of course, it is really hard. Some times we feel that we have to be friends with somebody we do not like just becouse we have same interests. and it is wrong to think that it is normal. We should choose friends for what they are, not for what they like. Because those interests can easily be placed by other hobbies, and all friendships will be gone.
Secondly, a real friend is most needed when people needs a shoulder to cry, a person who can listen to them, sorry for them, talk to them. 'A friend in need is a friend indeed'. I agree with this quotation, because it is true, that real friends should not only be with you when everything is good, but also when something is wrong. They should help you. That is why we need friends.
Final reason why we need friends is because we just want somebody to talk. Our comunity is build up using comunication, because we would be very bored, sad and lonely without anybody to talk. But not everyone who talk to us can be called friend. Some friend are just for entertainment: when you are bored or have nothing to do. but just real friend are the ones, wich do not need any words, they know you so well, that understands you even without words.
So, I think, our society is build up from variety of relationships: family, friends, employers-employees relationships and etc. The only important thing is that we need those relations, and we need to separate them one from another. Real friends helps to develop our sence of humour, ability to communicate, to feel responsable. We need friends if we want to live full life.

About lecture
I think today's DAK lecture was interesting, and the fact, that we had to correct our group mates paragraphs let us feel like real teachers. It was very useful for us, and I liked that we were able to express our thoughts about 'love'. In my opinion, nowadays teenagers are very complicated and do not like to talk about their feelings, or about any feelings at all. This lecture helped somebody to think about that real love, real long lasting relationships, and it is really good thing. I wish we have more lectures like that. It was relly interesting and fun, and, of course, easy. I like such easy lectures.

New week
The new week starts tomorrow. I am sure, that it will be as hard as the weeks before. I have a headache every time I think about all those lectures.
It is the week, when we will know our DAK marks. I think neither our lecturer nor we will be satisfied about them. I do not rally know why our group's marks are so low, not only in the DAK. From all the lessons we get low marks, but I can't say that we aren't learning, because we are. Of course, it is very hard, and our heads would cook if we learn everything at once, so we do some little breaks between studying some subjects. It is very bad, that sometimes that breaks becomes much longer than we expected.
New week - new work - new knowledge. I hope this week wont be as bad as i imagine. But it is just a hope.

The First Day After a Week of Independent Work
Today was a really sad day for me. All the bad marks really depress me.
Lectures weren't very difficult, maybe because it was just a first day of the week. Grammar lecture was quite well, lecturer was in a really good mood, she was smiling for about hour and a half. We were talking about negation and I was so happy, that i understood almost everything. Sometimes it is very difficult to understand what some of lecturers want us to do. For example, today we had to prepare a task for group, which had to include five definitions, task and a topic about natural disaster. Of course, there were just few students, who have done this homework right, and it was sad, that I wasn't one of them. We all had done the tasks, but everybody had done it in their own way. I don't know, why did this happen - maybe we didn't understand, maybe we didn't get a clear explanation, but don't blame anyone. We just misunderstood. and that's all.
The worst thing was when we knew our test results. Everybody were shocked. As I know, most of the group were really disappointed. Some of them even had to control them selves not to start to cry in front of the class. Sad, but I was one of them. It's very hard to switch our way of thinking from school to university. It was just a month, when we are trying to fit in this new status. It seems, that nobody understand us.The pressure is almost impossible. And I really mean it. One girl of our group even quited university. And the reason was "It's too hard". She cryed every evening, becouse she couldn't take this pressure. I am thinking aout quiting, too. But the only thing that stoppes me is the thought "What will I do then?", and of course, will I be able to study something else free. I just hate learning languages, I'm unable to learn them as well. But I just haven't an opportunity to study what I have really wanted - photography.
It is hard. It is so hard. And more - it is just a beggining. I don't know, what will be next. I am not perfect, but I am trying to be better. Maybe it will be easyer in the future, but now it's not look like. And, what is most difficult - nobady cares about us. Weather we are, or we are absent, just few lecturers really want to know, what is wrong, and if it's too hard, nobady will help us, so how will we be able to help to learn something to others, if we have no good example. It is just my thoughts, and a little bit of desperation from my soul. I hope it will fit into the frames of university, like my whole life.
