The University of Manchester is ranked 16 in the complete university guide for civil engineering and is located in the city of Manchester which is 5 min walk from the Manchester Piccadilly train station. The entry requirements for the university is too high that I am now trying hard to get into the university.

I went there before three weeks to my foundation exams and the university atmosphere is too great as well as the city. The place is full of nature as the university structure is similar to the castle. I am deeply fall in that place. I found that Manchester is a student's city as there are many students everywhere and it brings peace. The university campus is quite big and the university main structured institutions are situated along the road.

I do really like this place as I tried to walk and discover some of the university hall. I usually feel so excited as I saw the students from the university and I am looking forward to join the university of Manchester soon.

Engineering and computer science foundation program at Bellerbys College consists of 10 subjects which are Pure Math 1, Pure Math 2, Mechanics 1, Mechanics 2, Properties of Matters & Waves, Electricity and Fields, Foundation English Skills 1, 2, 3 and Computer Information Technology. Of all the subjects, I certainly think Matters & Waves is the most difficult subject.

Matters & Waves is a subject which is made up of different laws of Newton and different types of waves and calculation of the various methods as well as the formations. This makes me difficult because there are many different formulas and they are very confusing. Also, there are a lot of definitions to understand and learn. Therefore, this makes my brain to burst out. However, Electricity is easier subject than Matters & Waves as it is more straight forward and more comfortable to study.The differences between pure maths 1 and 2 is that pure maths 1 consists of numerical, trigonometric functions, geometric series, logarithm and some calculus while pure maths 2 contains only calculus and integration and some more advanced way to find area and volume. The second challenging subject is the mechanics because it uses the critical thinking too much. Although it seems to be easy, it is however challenging. Finally, the foundation English skills subjects are very different from academic English styles as it contains many coursework and there are two weeks time (sometimes a week) to prepare for the coursework and this coursework test the 4 English skills. Moreover, Computer Information Technology (CIT) is an important subject that gives more information on Microsoft Word and Excel.

I usually face the challenges when I am studying at Bellerbys college. It occurs when there are exams and many homework than usual. These things bring me stress to the level which is 4 out of 5 because I am worried about the exams result too much, whether thinking on if i do not meet the requirements for the chosen university. Therefore, I make a timetable to overcome these problems. I may not be studying all nights but I make a timetable which is perfect and suitable for me, like , I study an hour or two each day , depends on my work. The next thing I face is that the time taken to go to school. It takes me 45 minutes minimum by bus. Meanwhile, I have to wake up early every morning round about 7 am and catch the bus at 8 am. However, this fix my characteristics and my personalities as it makes me more punctual than more and now, I do know the value of time. If I get late to the class, I will miss an important part of the study.

After I have progressed my studies, I feel more confident and optimistic about my studies and I feel like I am on my right decision. There are 12 classmates including me from different nationalities and countries. They are so friendly and enthusiasm about the personal interests like playing football. Not only my classmate, they become my football teammates and my hanging out mates. I am so glad that I have a wonderful change to study with them, knowing their countries traditions and cultures and their language as well. In addition, teachers are very kind and always keen to help the students anytime. For example my class tutor teacher always ask us that whether we could follow and understand the lessons. I do remember when he printed me out many exercise to practice and this help me to get the satisfaction result in my exam.

I am so excited to study CIT subject as it is one of my favourite subjects in my high school life. Studying this course makes me improve my Microsoft skills as well as my punctuality. It helps me very well with my university as it is a subject that I could get higher marks.

I find that studying this subject is quite enjoyable and it reminds me the time that I studied ICT with my friends at my high school. However, studying CIT in Bellerbys is simply complicated for me as it teaches more advance ways of using Microsoft Word and different formulas for excel.

CIT is taught in a computer room where there are about 20 computers. There are two sectors in CIT class. Firstly, teacher tells the students what to do and how to do. And students then ask the teachers if the explanation is not clear. Finally, it's our time to complete the job and submit the worksheet on the same day. As the homework, there is a journal every week that every students should submit by Sunday which has a word limit of minimum 200. This improves for students to become punctual.

Studying CIT is straightforward for me as I had taught many similar ways of using the Microsoft programmes at my previous high school.

Studying in Foundation English class is a merit for me because it improves my Four English Skills and it helps me a lot with my recent education.

The differences of studying between academic and general English study is that general English gives some sort of balance between the subjects and consists of some free time activities. There are many assessments in the foundation English class. So, this makes me more punctual than I was as I always have to submit my work within a particular time.

About this English course, sometimes I found it easy because the demonstrations of the teachers make me more easier and transform me into more relax in the subject. The teaching methods are too attractive to us and well understanding that everyone becomes too active when it is an English class. Moreover, the majority of my friends also said that their favourite subject is English as we had some discussions about our favourite subjects because the teachers are way too energetic to educate us. And I literally agree that I feel it the same way.

Based on the teaching style, there is usually a week time to prepare for a coursework. So, this makes me more comfortable than any other subjects. During the one week, we were deeply thrown out into the coursework patterns and its marking system.

I am currently studying Engineering and Computer Science programme at Bellerbys College and I am in my last term. As my career pathway, I am choosing civil engineering and throughout my studies in the college, I found that Pure Maths 2 is my main subject as it is very necessary for the university.

However, Pure math 2 is quite challenging and is also very confusing. It consists of different methods of differentiation and integration. The main problem that I find is the marking system by the teacher as he uses the different method where my solutions can be marked as correct by other teacher. Therefore, my homework marks had been reduced. So that I tried to have some conversations with my classmates and finally we decided to follow his method only for this time and everything was okay since that time. He explained me the question carefully when I was having a difficult time. Due to the changes in methods, it was really tough for us to get back in the question so my friends and I asked him briefly about  Finally, my changes in the method made my results better in the exam.

I think this is my main subject because it is difficult and so competitive to get great marks in the exams. However, this subject became more comfortable before the exam day as I gave a lot of my time doing pure maths.

There is a huge impact between studying in my country and in the UK. Firstly, UK uses a modern teaching styles by using projectors and active board whereas white board is most commonly used in my country.

Due to the different education systems, UK has a lesser workload than my country as UK gives much more freedom to students. However in my country, there are dozens of work to do, along with homework and tutorials at school and the extra classes(tuition) should be attended by everyone which takes about 3 hours after school and it gives me a lot of stress and sometimes, it makes me tired.

Furthermore, studying in the UK has more advantages than studying in my country because I can make friends from different nationalities and cultures and also I could have a chance of studying different languages. In addition, I do have a chance to study different cultures from my friends as well. Constructing the friendship in the UK is very interesting because we all use same language with different accents and this improves my English skills as well. But in my country, we all use same language and accent so it seems to be a quite boring than I think.

The class sizes in my country is a bit larger than the class sizes in the UK because class sizes for secondary schools in my country fit more than 40 students.

Finally, studying in the UK gives more experience and also many chance for the students to visit different cities and towns in the UK while studying. And I expect that studying in the UK could improve my friendship skills and English language skills as well as my adventure skills.

Before I went UK, I was pretty conscious about how was the feeling of the weather climate like in UK. As soon as the plane landed in UK, I put my thick jacket on whilst I was thinking whether I am ready to face for the newly upcoming experiences or not. A sudden cold breeze hit over my face when I got off the plane and it was a huge welcome for me.

Then, I took a taxi to my homestay in Brighton while having nice conversations with the taxi driver. As soon as I arrived Brighton, I felt so relaxed and too comfortable with my host family.

Recently, I applied for Civil engineering with a year of industry at the university and I hope this would really help with my future.

After I graduate from the university, I will be looking forward to get some working experience in UK and with that all experiences, I would work back in my country(Burma,Myanmar), as I want to bring some sort of development to my country by opening a construction company.

Grand Theft Auto 5 is my ideal game and it was released in 2013. This action - adventure game is the second best selling Xbox-360 video game.

GTA ,which is produced by the Rockstar, is an open world game so every gamer can go inside the virtual world as if they are in the real world, doing whatever they want in the game. Unlike the previous GTA games, GTA 5 has improved a lot of its graphics and gameplay. Therefore, it features like a real life action gameplay. This GTA 5 consists of a big gameplay map which includes big cities and places in America which are San Andreas, Davis (Compton), Del Perro (Santa Monica) and Rockford Hills (Beverly Hills).
Basically, there are 2 game mod in the game which are GTA online and GTA 5 gameplay. GTA online is a bigger mode which can be played with all the GTA players in the world. The best thing in the GTA 5 is to be able to go hunting, hiking, sightseeing, going to the movies and comedy show, hijacking the vehicles and many other things that cannot be done in the real world.

I was too surprised when I first played GTA 5 because of its graphics, the cars look like reality and the map looks larger than the previous GTA. It is a must to play this game as it brings a lot of happiness.

Staying with host-family is the best experience of my life. There are 4 students from Bellerbys college in my home stay.
At first, when I arrived to my home stay, I thought there could be many people in my host family but, i was too surprised that there is just a person at my home stay and some cats and dogs. There are 5 student rooms in my homestay and 2 bathrooms which are a small sized and a medium sized. It took about 45 minutes to reach Bellerbys from the house so there are a bit difficulties for me while I have to get up early in the morning to catch the bus. Sometimes, I am late for class. However, it is a good training as it becomes a habit for my life career.

Now, I am able to manage the time than I was. Moreover, the thing is that I am able to take the shower just one time in a day which is in the morning as I face a lot of difficulties because I always play football and that means that I am not able to take a shower after I came back sweaty and dirty. Therefore, I have to deal with it by using the tap water and a bowl to wash.

Anyhow, The food cooked by my home stay is super duper great that she normally cooks rice and curry for the dinner and it tastes delicious. She likes to share some ideas and knowledge while we are eating dinner. I just realised that there are still lots of things to know about the UK cultures and the ways people live and behave.
Staying at the home stay is the best part of life as it gives me more knowledge around the U.K. and its tradition as well. I am so glad that I have a chance to study some life styles of UK and its culture.

This picture below is my first dinner at my homestay.
It looks delicious and so tasty right?
