I passed all the other course that I took at my university, but I could never pass botany. This was why all botany students had to spend several hours a week in a lab look through a microscope at plant cells, and I could never see through a microscope. This was used to make my professor angry. “I can’t see everything, ” I said. Then he began patient enough to explain how to see through it, but I still couldn’t make it. At last we tried it with every adjustment of the microscope known to men. With my pleasure, I saw something and drew it quickly on the paper. “What’s that?” my professor asked. “That’s what I saw.” I answered. “No, you don’t!” he shouted, and he bent over and looking into the microscope. “That’s your eyes! You’ve fixed the lens so that it reflects! You’ve drawn your eyes!”

Today we were organized for a short trip to the West Hill. We set out by the school bus at 7:30 a.m. The weather was pleasure and every one of us was excited. After   two hour’s ride, we arrived there at nine thirty. We began our programs the moment as we got off from the bus. We played games on the hillside and swimming in the river. After that we had our picnic lunch. In the afternoon we walked along the river, that winds around the hills.  We took a lot of photo and enjoyed ourselves very much. Time past quickly and we had to come back. It was over five o’clock that we returned school. What a good trip we had today! I’ll never forget it.
