But you have to make it through.After a lengthy visa application procedure, I left my father with our dog, jumped on a flight, and there I was in London. Since Europe is an aspiration in my country, I had imagined it as a place where things always worked perfectly. I was alone in dealing with all kinds of problems as they arose, that was alright and this is how I became my own “special person” during my Erasmus exchange.The accommodation I could afford was far from the city .To make things worse, I was new to many things ,and definitely an outsider .But it wasnt an exception to carelessness ,I found out .My dorm was in a silent neighborhood. Little did I know that those calm streets would be visited by loud fire trucks.And because of me! That morning, I closed the kitchen door after placing some bread in the toaster .I was still half asleep and looking for what to wear .For some reason, the automatic mechanism of the toaster to push the slices up didnt work. When I went back to the kitchen, it was full of thick white smoke .Coughing hard, I opened the windows, stepped outside the door for a breath, and then went in again to reach for the fire extinguisher（灭火器）. It was the first time I used one ,and had to get out of the kitchen to be able to see how to unlock it .It was only then the fire alarm went off !I went in again and made sure I put off the fire. Nothing was like how I planned .A few times I hung out in the school cafeteria, but couldnt make friends. I went to discover the city, alone .Independence wasnt something to be ashamed of after all. I wish I had made friends with people ,but it turned out that I had to learn I wasnt in need of others company to enjoy life .I tried to make the best of my time ,thinking that being alone is a blessing too ,just like being with friends is .My international experiences that followed definitely made me more social ,but now I know that being alone is not a weakness ,but a part of life to embrace .Just like our mistakes ,carelessness or bad luck ,I can say it was during my time in London that I learnt I was ,despite everything ,a strong and special person who can cope with（处理）anything that comes her way. 24.
