ur hostel is on campus. It has four buildings, a restaurant, and a
Osupermarket. It also has a small clinic to help students when they

are sick. So, I think the hostel is like a small town because it has all the
things that students need. From my experience, living in such a place

can have both advantages and disadvantages.

Let me start with the advantages. First, any student that comes to the
hostel for the first time often feels sad because they will stay away from

their families, but after a few months they think and feel proud taking
responsibilities. For example, they learn how to cook and wash their

clothes. Furthermore, in the hostel, we meet new people, socialize and
build future relationships. Also, we take part in some exciting activities.

For example, we have a small gym. So, we participate in this gym to
train and spend our time. In this hostel, we also have a lot of parties to

celebrate together on the National Day or any other special occasion.

However, the hostel has some things that we hope can change. For
example, we often feel bored because we don’t go out of the hostel a lot.

Also, we are allowed to go shopping ONLY TWO TIMES in a month!
We wish to go out more often. For example, we want to go to the park

and spend some time having fun!
