I can hardly call my first day at school a real first day. As a major in Hungarian language and literature I've been attending the University of Miskolc for several years. Nevertheless, a first day is always first in a sense that however long you've been eroding the stairs in the building and furniture in the classrooms, you can always have unexpected and unwelcome surprises when you come to school after a long interval for the first time.
What actually happened to me was that I simply couldn't register with Neptun despite all my efforts. The system of network simply seemed to neglect all my trials, didn't recognize my pin, refused to remember any of my previous records. I got really frightened, contacted every secretary I have contacts with including Marika néni, but none of them were of any help. Nor were the otherwise very helpful and efficient girls at the students' office of study matters. Even Attila Lengyel was away. I was thinking of asking my dad for help but knowing his computer operating skills I decided not to.
In the end I came home with the embarassing feeling of not completing the first day's task. My second day wasn't any better either. Actually it was only on the fourth day that I was able to arrange all the necessary administrative work and have myself registered as Hungarian major and English minor student.
