differently, but it hasn’t always been the case. When he first moved there he couldn’t (1) get

complain about the shop closing times. It took him a long time to (5) get used to not be (be)

Hi Mark,
I think you heard that I moved from my house, in another part of my country. Yes, it’s a
shame, because in a old house, I used to get out of bed at 9 o’clock and in my new house I
can do this, because my school it’s not next my house, but it’s beautiful in comparison with
my old house. Here it’s quite and aren’t a lot of cars. I can say that I used to here, even was
hard get used to do this. I think I will be happy here with my parents with my brother and
with my sister, which she was used to.
I hope, you are very happy, and don’t forget: You are my friend forever.
Have a nice day and be happy!
Your friend, Florin!

Hi Mark,

I think you heard that i moved from my house in another part of my country. Yes, it's a shame
because in an old house I used to get out of bed at 9:00 o'clock and in my new house, this
time I don’t live next to my school and I have to wake up early to be in time for my first
class. Still, I like my new house more than my old one, but it’s beautiful in comparison with
my old house.

I can say that I got used to living here even if it was hard to do this. I think, I will be happy
here with my parents, with my brother and with my sister who is used now with the life here.

I hope you are very happy and don’t forget: you are my friend, forever.

Have a nice day and be happy!

your best friend, Florin

Homework
From C_engleză _ scris_2024, subject II, new words:
1) leaving a pit in your stomach and feeling worthless
2) These scores hold so much importance in our lives, with people constantly telling us
how crucial it is to get that A+ and how vital it is to get into the best university in
order to have a good life
3) The truth is that no one has it all figured out, no one is going to hold this one test
against you for your life
4) There is so much more to life than school, if you ever find yourself overwhelmed and
overworked, take a step back and think about the endless possibilities that life holds,
and F does not mean your existence comes to an end.
5) The anxiety due to exams will consume you to the point where you mess it up despite
how hard you prepared
6) The pressure of endless exams can leave you overwhelmed and burnt out
7) We need certain wake-up calls in our life to know when we need to step up and take
control
8) Don't take criticism harshly, take each misstep, each failure, and each remark as a
learning opportunity and you will soon start to see yourself thrive.
9) The way in which you look at your life and control your actions is the way in which
you will start to live the life you once dreamed of.
10) even if they have done relatively well, this is perfectly normal as it's a drive to
always do better and be better, helping you to grow as a person.
11) Being hardworking and wanting to achieve the best is not a bad quality but just
proves that you are ready to put in the work and effort to accomplish your goals
12) However, this drive should never have you beating yourself up and putting
unnecessary pressure on you, then it begins to take a toll on your mental well-being
13) You should always be proud of what you have achieved, it's an amazing thing what
you are capable of and you have your whole life ahead of you to further showcase
your potential
14) Paragraph 5
15) Blurting is a method I find significantly useful
16) Flowchart
17) After all of this, make sure to answer some practice questions and past papers as it
always gives you an idea of how the actual exam will be
18) The biggest issue we face in school is procrastination
19) We have all been there, but is it really the best choice
20) Sometimes procrastination works out, making us feel like we can continue to do it
because we face no consequences
21) It's common human nature to think like this but the stress of last-minute work
should not be the motivation for you to actually do your task. This is a downward
spiral that will just leave you overwhelmed at the end of it. Focus on finishing things
