Question

I moved into an empty dormitory for the first time two years ago. 1. ________Firstly，I realized that I didn’t know anybody at the school. Secondly，I knew that I wanted to work hard at my lessons and learn something useful. And thirdly，I wanted to have a good time with new classmates，without my parents around.

The first realization frightened me in the beginning. But that fear quickly disappeared. It was the other two goals that ended up being my difficulties. I knew that it was hard to devote enough time to class and to social efforts . 2.________I knew this would be a challenge，but I didn’t realize how much until classes began.

I got on well with the other girls who lived in my dorm. Often，instead of finishing my homework before it was due，I went downstairs and had ice cream with my neighbor. 3.________ I knew it wasn’t very good and the grade I received showed my lack of effort.

I was aware that I needed to find some sort of balance. So I created a schedule that would divide my time up between going to class，doing homework，and relaxing. It seemed like a good idea，but I was only able to follow it for a few days. 4. ________

So I tried another plan. Each week I made a list of everything I had to get done during that week. Then，under the list of things I had to get done，I made a list of things I could do if I had time. 5.________I’m glad that I’ve learned to balance things and it has helped prepare me for what is to come after graduation.
