I came from far, very far away.


I came from far, very far away. I am doing my post graduate at this university. Being and foreign student means I have to try to look for partial financial support from work. The only employment that I can do is being a teaching assistant. I never regretted being the T.A. since it led me to my story which I am about to tell you. It was my second term in doing my teaching assistantship. I was chosen to do the fourth year course which very few students were taking. The course was very difficult for the students, therefore, I got to know all my students. One that I was really close to was Jim. He came to ask me many questions about the course itself. We are not much different in age. In fact, I am only 2 years older than he is. He has curly, dark brown hair. His dark brown eyes under the glasses always shine with enthausiasm of learning. At his 6 feet 2 height, he is very tall compared with my 5 feet 11 height. Whenever he came to consult me, my heart was always pounding for being so close to him. We got to know each other better until we became friends. By the end of the term, Jimmy, that is how I call him, invited me to his place for supper. His parents were so greatful and nice to me.
