This is my last blog. unfortuanately, i have no time to write twelve blogs. This is my eleventh blog. Because of having a toothache. That stopped me from doing many stuff like blogging, studying and going to my classes. Today we have my first final in eap. it was the writing exam. i don't feel nervous while i was writing ye exam. i think i wrote a good essay this time with less grammar mistakes. We have still some final exams left, i hope i will do good at those finals if i can. I should study some English and some mathematics as i have my final on the last day of esams on tuesday. After the exams today, i went to the mosqye. there was a speech there the guy talked about how islam is going on toronto. he said there over tan 80 mosques there. then we go to an indian restaurant to have a dinner. The food was very delicious.good luck for the rest of the exams

Today was the last day of classes in Eap program. i had my final presentation. it was good therefore i had a good mark. it was concise it i said only the important information. i wasn't nervous like everytime i was the last one giving my presentation. so every one in eap 3 will remember last moment of class which was my presentation. After that, we had a great party there are lots of food. i ate a lot, compensating the effort that i exerted on my presentation and waiting along time to do it. we enjoyed the party for an hour it was interesting. it was a surprise for me as i don't they are going to be a party after our last presentation except at 1:30. I am worried about my exam tomorrow. Writing a good essay is not easy for me, I should concentrate on writing this essay tomorrow. i will try to make a good organization because it was my essential problem at the beginning of this program. sometimes i got grammar and punctuation problem. i will do my best tomorrow hoping to have a masterpiece essay. I will go now and revise some grammar and writing organization. i should know also some important vocabulary words for tomorrow's essay. I am far from b+ but i will do my best. Okay, best wishes for all students on the final exams. And on the university courses as well.

Today is kind of a weird day. it' s gone without making any important thing. It's like the wind it went fast. After i finished scott class, i waited for math class as i didn't go to the listening class planning to revise some math rules, but actually i didn't do that. After the lecture, i went home it was about six o'clock. I ate and I watched tv for about 20 minutes. then i felt dizzy so i went to sleep. i supposed to wake up after an hour an a half. but i don't till eleven. i'm really tired right now. I have n't prepared for my presentation uptill now. But i will do it after i finished writing this blog. My presentation is about Bob dylan, he is very famous so there are lot os stuff to say but i need to memorize it. That's way i'm nervous when i make a presentation. As i should memorize bunch of inforrmation about something i have no idea about. That’s really hard. However, it is a good idea for English practicing. I’m really anxious these days as the finals are coming, it sounds to me like aliens are coming. On Friday writing exam will be hard for me because I’m really worried about it. I am not good at writing, if I ace good organization, I dropped on grammar and vice-versa. So I have no specific problem in writing essays. I hope it will be the essay before the last for me, this one and the one of the effective writing test.

Today i have finished my last assignments for the design and math course. In this semester i had a lot of work to do in these courses. I am doing well on these courses besides the english course. In all courses i managed to finish my assignments on time and sometimes before time. Finals will start on friday, i have lots of stuff to do. I had lots of vocab to revise. Memorizing stuff is the worst thing in my life. I will do my best in order to work out how i'm gonna memorize the bunch of words. Tomorrow i should prepare for my final presentation on Thursday. It is the hardest english assignment but it is funny we know a lot about different stuff. This time we r gonna know about different singers of various types of music. I have to organize time to study English and linear algebra. I wanna finish my exams because I’m really worried about them. Hopefully I will take English proficiency and apply for engineering degree for the second year. I hope the coming days pass peacefully with out any circumstances. I wanna do lots of stuff on the holiday as it is my first year in Canada. So I wanna cope with what is going on in thus different world. It seems to be nice but completely differenty from what on Egypt. Good luck for all students.

last days, the weather was extremely cold. i have caught a cold. I feel the weathr as if i open a freezer. being only for four months, i'm not used to that col weather. it was -18 yesterday and about -20 today. my hand was freezing under the gloves. I should buy more thicker gloves as it is very cold. hopefully, Chinook wind is coming on monday, the weather will be warmer and have the rest from that ridiculous kind of weather. i hope it will stay for a while. I am going to have a rest now. i am tired because of the cold i have.

I am going to talk about the effective writing study exam. I have taken this test on tuesday. It was the pizza party day. we enjoyed this party at 12 pm. The test was at 5 pm, it was only 50 minutes. I could not finish this test. i only answered 75% of it. the test was very hard, i stucked at most of the vocabulary words. my memory is very bad as i have seen these words before but i couldnot remember the meaning of them. I took long time trying to recall these words, this has affected the reading session. I should learn from that how to manage my time. Also the reading portion wasn't easy the multiple choices was confusing. I received the day after an email from scott, i found my self between grade seven and eight. I will do my best trying to improve myself on English. on the other hand, to my point view, it is not accurate to indicate people levels from a vocabulary words.

last weekend i moved to a new house. my family and i kept organizing our stuff at home for long time. For me the two reading days were working days at my new house. It was very tiring to carry the furniture and organized it. After that, I got a pain in my teeth, so I went to the dentist. that's why i didn't come to class on wednesday. Now, the pain is more than when it started. I am taking to antibiotic. I will go to the dentist nextweek to have my tooth pulled. I hope i will be okay and be able to study. also can go to my classes. I am going now because i feel very tired.

It seems to be a long weekend, but it's not because you went to the university on friday.

You can join this group and share many applications as well as sharing ideas. I think it is a good idea to be friends and improve our English language. This group is on university of calgary network. First of all you should have an account on www.facebook.com then you can add me to your friend list and then I will send you an invitation for this group.

I am happy this weekend for two reasons. First because it's long so we must thanks God because of thanksgiving and for the long weekend. The second reason that we have no assignments due in scott's class. But unfortanately we have one in sandy's class it's a speaking journal. I haven't prepared for it uptill now but I hope I'll find some one and starts to speak with him. I hope I'll make a good speaking journal because my grades are usually pass. forget all about this. My hapiness was ended when I started solving my math assignment,I have found many difficulies in solving it but I have finished more than half of it. And then I found a virus on messenger it send messages to all my online friends. I can't fix this problem, I feel frustrated. I am trying right now to do it. I have successfuly fixed it. I'm gonna leave now to do my grammar homework and see what I'm gonna do another stuff. So I hope you have a nice weekend. see you soon.

I am going to talk about living in calgary. Calgary is a good place to live in. As there are many facilities you can do whatever you want here. you can practise sports. There are lots of play grounds in every community so I can play soccer whenever I want also football and baseball as well.In the university also there lots of sports facilities, I can practise lots of sports there basketball, volleyball, pingpong as well as going to the gym. Besides sports studying in canada is really interesting I'm enjoying it. There's organization there in everything; in studying every thing is organized as assignments' due date are stated from the first day of classes you can easily organize your time for studying. After that,you still have time for playing, and also working in a part time job. in Summer you can have a full time job from April to the end of August so you can really depend on your self by having this job. Another thing that let makes me comfortable in living in calgary is the bus services the busses come in time, the schedules are avaliable on the internet, also on papers and also you can call transit to know yor bus time it's really interesting. I really love living in canada.
