1 College—A New Experience

Living at college, first of all, gives me a sense of responsibility, of being on my own. My parents aren’t around to say, ―No, you’re not going out tonight‖ or ―Did you finish your homework?‖ Everything I do has to be my decisio n, and that gives me the responsibility of handling my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. Before that I looked in the phone book since I had no clue about any banks around here or where they were located. I went to the bank and made decisions for myself—whether to have a checking or savings account and whether or not to get a MASTER card.

Friendly people: that’s another aspect I like about college. On my first day (and even now) people were nice to me. I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York and –even though I’d been here before—I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in, not knowing the building we were supposed to go to, and the guard was especially nice: with a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. Some upperclassmen saw me and asked, ―Are you a new student?‖ When they found out I was looking for my dormitory, one said, ―Oh,just follow us; that’s where we’re going.‖ Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.

Finally—to add to my likes of college—I love having Saturdays off. Also, I love to sleep in, something I couldn’t do in high school.

2 The Role of Migrant Workers

Migrant workers have made a great contribution to the prosperity of cities. They leave their home-land for better chances. Some want to change their destiny, some want to make a fortune. Whatever the purposes they cherished when millions of them streamed into big cities, they have promoted the development of cities.

Most of the migrant workers are hard working and unafraid of hardships. They take up the dirtiest, the most strenuous or dangerous jobs which city laborers are unwilling to do. With lots of building they have set up and streets they have kept clean, they have helped modernize and beautify cities. Not only have they become the main work force in the construction sector, they also have helped liberate city women from heavy housework chores by taking care of the babies, cleaning houses or providing any other services citizens need.

Although some of the citizens complain about the increasing number of the problems such as theft, robbery a few of migrant workers have committed, most of the citizens agree that their contribution is obvious, and with better management, their role in the construction of cities will definitely be greater.
