Two Situations: Good and Bad
Over the past five years of studying at the faculty of languages and ‎translations, I have been ‎through many situations which became ‎characteristic of my collegiate life. Some of the ‎situations were positive and memorable, while others were negative and unpleasant. In ‎retrospect, the more I flash back the more I remember other situations. I will only mention ‎two situations: one is positive and another is negative. ‎

The Positive Situation: when I was a freshman. I was not very sure what I am going to do. ‎Luckily, I came to meet very wonderful people—mostly senior students—who walked me ‎through the collegiate life. People were, of every sense, helpful and supportive. I felt ‎blessed and proud to be in such a teamwork atmosphere.‎

The Negative One: it was about a sort of injustice that was done to me. In my sophomore ‎year, I was graded poorly in three subjects. When I complained about it, no one even ‎bothered to consider my complaint. I am sure that the complaint was consigned to the ‎dustbin. This situation affected both my academic performance and my life in general. I ‎decided to quit, then I quickly licked my wounds and got back on track. Now I am ‎determined not to let such an injustice happen to me again. ‎

Un par de situaciones: buena y mala

En los últimos cinco años de estudio en la facultad de idiomas y traducciones, He pasado ‎por muchas situaciones que se convirtió en característica de mi vida universitaria. Algunas ‎de las situaciones eran positivos y memorable, mientras que otros fueron negativos y ‎desagradables. En retrospectiva, más me produczo un retroceso de más Me acuerdo otras ‎situaciones. Sólo voy a mencionar dos situaciones: uno es positiva y otro negativa.‎

La situación positiva: cuando era un estudiante de primer año. No estaba muy segura de lo ‎que iba a hacer. Por suerte, llegué a conocer muy personas maravillosas—en su mayoría ‎estudiantes de alto—que me acompañó a través de la vida universitaria. La gente era, de ‎todos los sentidos, útil y de apoyo. Me sentí bendecido y orgulloso de estar en un ambiente ‎de trabajo en equipo.‎

La situación negativa: se trataba de una especie de injusticia que se hizo para mí. En mi segundo año, ‎que se clasificó mal en tres temas. Cuando me quejé de esto, nadie se molestó en ‎considerar mi queja válida. Estoy seguro de que la queja fue consignado al basurero. Esta ‎situación afectó tanto mi rendimiento académico y mi vida en general. Decidí dejar de ‎fumar, entonces Coser mis heridas rápidamente y volvió a la pista (o a volver a la ‎normalidad). Ahora estoy decidido a no dejar que suceda tal injusticia a mí otra vez .‎

Check gender and number in adjectives (and also verbs and participles), there are several mistakes.

senior students = estudiantes avanzados (estudiantes de alto doesn't exist in Spanish)

more ... more ... = más ... más ...
(to experience a) flash back = revivir una situación

the more I flash back ... = cuanto más revivo esa época/esa situación ...

... mi queja válida ---> no la consideraron justificada
... mi válida queja ---> estaba plenamente justificada

The text in English speaks of "quitting (studies)", not "quitting smoking".

lick my wounds = cicatrizar mis heridas (to mimic the English original, like we do in dubbing; a native Spanish speaker would choose another way to describe the situation).

There are more comments, but I'll wait for others to dive in.

It's pretty good, anyway.

Cheers!
