hi
Sorry, my friends! I haven't updated my blog for almost a month since I've dedicated myself in job searching. It took a great deal of time sending applications or filling out my resume onto employeers' HR system. In addition, i have been quite anxious and stressed out, since the time is running out. Part ot the reason I didn't write my blog until now is the things i always want to share with my friends are positive and happy things. I want to tell you "I've found a job!" instead of negative things.
Today, after talking with Jill this morning, I feel quite relaxed and NEVER EVER worry about my job at all. Thanks again, Jill! I love learning English but i couldn't spend much time on that due to my tight schedule, and esp the final is comming in two weeks. Thinking spending a summer in a language school where i can work on stuff i really want to concentrate on would probably be a great treat for me. I want to have a very good accent which is hard to improve without a lot of work or starting at a young age with native speakers and a focus only on spoken, not just written. Besides, this would make a good use of my summer and give me a chance to remain in the US.
Moreover, we discussed a lot about English(and Chinese) learning in Taiwan. I would say the Taiwanese English teaching style is SO WRONG!! It's also shameful to apply this method to teach Chinese to foreigners. All they are doing is to have students memorize 100 new characters a day, exactly the same way we learn English, so we never REALLY learn it.
Also, today i did a grocery shopping, although still being concerned about money, but not that concerned as usual. I bought a lot of stuff i never buy before. I bought a macaroni(will show u later), a butter, an oranage juice, a raspberry jelly, and my favorite snack DORITOS for the very first time in the US. oh ya!
A close-up shot of Macaroni. It came out so yummy! I love it.
My dinner with juice and macaroni box.
Today I had an excellent dinner! This was my first time practicing making a Macaroni. While Emily tought me when i was in CA, i just haven't had a chance to do it, probably because i was expecially laid-back today. Just slowed down my pace to enjoy life. I think I should do it more.
The macaroni came out so wonderful! For my friends who are going to visit me soon, i will definitely make it for you. For those in Taiwan, i promise I will make it for you when i back to Taiwan. Just be patient!
Okay! Need to get back to my study and homework again!
take care! xo
