my journal about georgina @Stanford

this journal's topic:write about a person that you met in america

now i want to teel you about a woman-georgina. she is my host in ALC1 at Stanford University. her mother is from philippine. and her father is from scotland. she was born in new york. now she studies at Stanford. her major is middle east history.

the reason why i choose her not just because that she is my host;it is because that she always tell us many funny things such as her experience at stanford, her stupid things....etc. she is always full of energy and always smiles when she gets along with us. for example, two weeks ago on saturday, when we wnet to san francisco for a one-day tour, i didn't have a good mood for a while that time. georgina immediately recognized that i was in a bad mood. and she chatted with me, companied me, made me laugh... and so on. she was is always considerate that she is just like my older sister. i only have youngger sister so i don't know what the feeling it is when someone takes care of me like an older sister.

it is proved that even we come from different countries, as long as we cares about each other, we will still be good frineds. we can learn from host, my friend--Georgina!!

my first korean class today in NTU in my life!

compared with japanese words, the koreanwords is much easier to learn and memorize. but on the other side, the pronunciation in korean is one of the most difficult pronunciation in the world i think. haha!

it is too difficult for me to decribe how hard it is!!
but no matter how hard it is, i am still happyto learn such a mysterious language!! additionally, the good news is that i don't have to go to NCCU, the only one university that has korean language department in taiwan, to learn korean because the teacher in NCCU will come to NTU to teach us korean every week in the following days! it is so convenientfor me to learn!

fortunately, i have losts of korean and japanese friends now, so maybe they can be my online teachers if they are willing to do that!
after theone year korean and japanese learning, maybe it is possible for me to make up my mind to be a linguist!! it's sooooooooo funny!!

my first japanese class on monday in ntu in my life

this monday, i had my first japanese class in my life. many people may ask me why i want to choose a japanese class? the answer is that after the ALC program in Stanford, ive been more and more interested in learning different kinds of languages in the world. so i choose japanese and korean to learn. after my first japanese class, i was fascinated by japanese. japanese words are simplier than chinese words. i am so happy that i have the chance to learn japanese because if i learn it well, maybe i'll have the abilityto communicate with my dear japanese friends by using the simple sentence in japanese. i'm really looking for to use it! by the way, i fond that the most funniest guy in ALC- Abraham also choose the class. so now we are classmates!!haha!! it's coooool right?!!

Happy Birthday to drear Hans!

yesterday was my 21-year-old birthday
originally i supposed that there would be almost no one to say happy birthday to me, but i was wrong. i still have a lot of nice friends especially MY FRIENDS IN "ALC1"!!!!

So yesterday i received lots of message about best wishes for my birthday from my friends on msn messenger.
i was soooooo happy and surprised to get those message.

what's more, there are three people that i want to thank for

the first one is my best friends who now lived in canada
he sent a great present from canada to me. the distance is so far so when i received that present, i almost cried. no wonder he is my best friend in my life so far.

the second one is my korean friend in ALC--Nahee.
she sang a song-"Happy Birthday to You" to me on the SKYPE.
and she also sent a birthday card from korea to taiwan!
what a considerate action!

the last one is my high school's classmate--Gary
he accompanied with me yesterday and chatted with me a lot.
i can expressed my feelings when i talked to him
and he always listened to me when i am talking
so he is one of my best friends among the high school's classmate

anyway,although there was nothing speciall ways to celebrate my birthday, i thought yesterday was the most meaningful one that i've ever had for my birthday

thank you guys. i love all of you!!!!!!!!!!

6.Jun

Jun:
when i talk about Jun- the most charming guy among koreans, i am always have a good mood.
Jun always bring his friends joy and happyness when we are around him.
for me, he is just like my older brother.
although we lived in the different room at Stanford's international dormitory-FloMo, he still cared about me much when we met in the aisle of the second floor in Alondra.so i really envy Dave that he could be Jun's room mate. haha!!
maybe it is becuse that i like to chat with Jun. he often give me some great advice when i am in trouble. if i have chance in the future, i want to be Unseok and Jun's room mate.....but it seems strange when three mans live in the same room...= = hahaha!!
Anyway, i think i am sooooooo lucky to be Jun's friend. i also hope that this friendship will last forever!

5.Nahee

Nahee:
she is a really nice girl!
actually, the first few days at Stanford, i didn't talked with her that much. it seemed that we didn't have many chances to talk with.
we met not so often at the beginning of this program. maybe the reason is that her english is too good for me to have the bravery to talk with.

but after several days, we talked to each other more and more.
i found that she is a considerate and easy-going girl. and she had a good temper as well. i felt free and relax when i talked with her.
i am lucky that we were in the same host group-Georgina's group.
every time when we had a host group meeting, i always had a good mood at the same time.
i remembered that at the last day in america, when all taiwanese had to leave earlier than korean and japanese friends, we wnet to the SF international airport to take the flight back to Taiwan. and she was the one that talked to me more than others. at tht time i cried a lot. i couldn't control myself from crying. she consoled me a lot and help me take my luggage to the gate. since then, i knew that she is soooo considerate.

these days when i came back to Taiwan, we often chatted in the MSN messenger. and we also talked to each other in the SKYPE. it ws really funny and joyful for me to chatted with her. but for the chatting on MSN or SKYPE, maybe i couldn't get through the sadness soon. (actually i can't overcome the sadness for leaving ALC yet....= =!)

finally, i really hope that we will be good friends in the future.
if she doesn't mind, i am glad to keep in touch with her continually.

thank her a lot to be my friend!

4.Unseok

Unseok:
my dear room mate-Unseok!

he is my first room mate in my life because i always lived with my family before the ALC program.
i remembered that when i arrived at FloMo at the first day of Stanford life, Unseok helped me bring my luggage to our room-Alondra 300.
i was touched by his action. since then , i thought that he would be a very nice room mate at Stanford.
we had a really good time at Stanford University. actually i really want to be his room mate forever although his bed is always messy! haha!!!
his bed is the dirtiest one that i've ever seen! my god!!
i will keep this time that we live in Alondra 300 in my mind forever.

if i have a chance in the future, i want to be his room mate again!!
