explain them in terms of a theory known as plate tectonics. Continents are floating apart from
each other; this is referred to as the continental drift. About sixty miles below the surface of
the sea, there is emimolten bed of rock over which plate, or slabs, carry continents and sea
floors at a rate of several inches a year. As the plates separate from each other, a new sea

My First Day At College
I'm so excited at my first day at college, although at first I was very confused because
there were so many events, but it was really fun. I met a lot of new friends from various faculties
and it was very nice, when after a long time staying at home I could finally discuss with new
people. although it was a bit nervous at first, but after 2 to 3 meetings the nervousness
disappeared.We do many things together. Starting from having fun, discussing and sharing a
story. I also get a lot of experience from it, I who initially didn't really like to socialize started to
dare to talk to new people.
