Two weeks later, I registered for my course and started going to lectures．It was really difficult to concentrate at first, and I could only really pick up bits and pieces．Over time though, as my Spanish improved, it became a lot easier and a lot more interesting．
I made friends with the other Erasmus students in my classes．It was difficult to get to know the Spanish students as most of them had already formed their own groups of friends and stuck to them．I did meet a few friendly Spanish people, but the vast majority of my friends were other foreign students．
I didn't really experience too much of a culture shock as I learnt a lot about the country through my major courses, but there were a few things that still took me by surprise, such as the laid-back attitude of the people．It meant life moved in general at a slower pace, which could be frustrating at times, but 1 soon grew to love it．
I didn't miss home too much as I kept in contact with family and friends online through Skype．It was also easy to get a cheap flight back for the weekend if I liked a weekend of home comforts．However, I was always so busy that I never really spared time for homesickness．My family came over a few times to visit and it was always good to have a fresh perspective(视角） on the city as they would appreciate things about Valencia I hadn't noticed or took for granted．
I have many fond memories of Valencia, especially the days spent on the sunny beach the brilliant food, the all-night party and the festivals．I'll definitely go back for a weekend with all the friends 1 met there and I hope to keep in touch with my Spanish friends too．I thoroughly recommend studying abroad, and although it may seem tough early on, the chances are you'll have a great time．

Efficiency and productivity are the key factors in the workplace．Being noticed is essential for the employee to progress．What if you are shy? People often make assumptions that being shy means you can't complete a job as well as others and this can seriously hold you back．
A shy person is likely to be the one who works hard and struggles for a quiet life rather than being put in an awkward （令人不舒服的）） situation．Unfortunately it means that you may be the one who misses a promotion．Being shy means your boss is less likely to remember you despite your ability．You end up with the "reliable" one who will riot compete with others．
