我印象最深的就是占座位呵呵我通常起得比较早几乎每天早上帮宿舍的姐妹们占座位喜欢的课就占中间的座位不喜欢的就占后排的

The most lasting impression I had was getting a seat. Haha. I would often get up early. It seemed like every morning I'd help the girls in my dorm get seats. For the classes I liked the most, I'd get a seat in the middle. I didn't like to get the seats in the back.
我们也是尤其是快考试的时候大家都要复习图书馆和一些大教室的座位太紧俏了

It was the same for us, especially right before exams. Everyone would need to review. The seats in the library and in some of the lecture halls were in high demand.
因为占座位我还丢掉好几本书呢
yīnwèi 因为zhàn 占zuòwèi 座位wǒ 我hái 还diūdiào 丢掉hǎojǐ 好几běn 本shū 书ne 呢
For the sake of getting a seat, I lost a bunch of books.
