Once upon a time, I was a level two student at the American University of Iraq-Sulaimani. Almost everything was new for me, especially the curriculum because I came to AUI-S with a completely different background of the system of education. Days past and my English improved a little. We got to a day when Ryan Bubalo, my level 2 instructor, asked us to write an essay. I chose Newroz, one of the Kurdish national holidays, to write about. I went back to the memory of the days when my high school teachers appreciated any students who told them that they used internet or copied information about what was the teachers asked about. So, I directly went to Wikipedia, copied and pasted as much information as necessary about Newroz. Later, I gave my paper to my instructor on the due date.
