難得的輕鬆

經歷五個星期的學習,今天是我難得覺得輕鬆的時刻。可是能經歷幾場的大考試之後,今天終於是真正感覺可以休息的時刻吧! 剛剛把敗犬女王的完結篇看完了,按照慣例,我當然也是飄了幾滴眼淚,畢竟姑娘我正值那樣的時刻阿... 我相信看過這部偶像劇的人,多少都會覺得感受很深吧!尤其是同我一般年紀的女生們。 當然我並不是要強調我們是敗犬囉,我只是喜歡那種為了自己夢想在前進的感覺,因為我在這邊也是努力在完成夢想。 當然我不若女主角那般勇敢,至少也懂得假裝堅強囉! 哈哈~

在兩天就是美國的獨立紀念日了,鎮上也會有一些活動,我也會出去走走晃晃。來這邊,當然也是要去感受這邊的文化囉!如果不出去感受一下的話,有些事情錯過就沒有啦!哈哈... 到時候在拍些照片放到Facebook去。

我知道我現在心裡還有個夢想,我也不知道何時能夠達成這個我最期望的夢想,但是我不絕望,我知道,時間到的時候,那個夢想就會實現了。加油~

即將滿月

時光飛逝... 轉眼間,來到美國已經四個星期,上課也上了四個星期了,而下星期就是我的期中測驗了。每個人的一天都只有24小時,但是不知道為啥在這邊的時間過得就是特別快,壓力當然也不少於工作時所擁有的壓力。在這邊不太能夠有適合我舒壓的管道,唯一能做的不是大哭一場就是走到陽台去吹吹風。我想,再經過一些時間之後,對於很多的人、事、物我就能夠更加適應了。

等到學期結束之後,我將會經歷甚麼樣的生活呢? 其實到現在我也還沒有很明確的把握,唯一能做的就是更加努力的念書了。加油吧~

Thanks God.

USA Wedding Party

在語言學校老師的邀請下,我和同學們在6/13的下午前往學校附近的教堂參加老師的女兒的婚禮。這是我生平第一次參加美國人的婚禮,心情自然是興奮又開心囉!

我和室友抵達的時候,婚禮正好開始。伴郎伴娘陸續上台,最後就是由新娘的爸爸證婚,因為新娘的爸爸是該教會的牧師。婚禮的過程當中,有一些挺感人的橋段,例如:全家人一起唱歌為新人祈禱,這個地方讓很多人流淚。另外就是交換戒指的時候,牧師講的就是我們在電視劇裡面常看到的,你願不願在你的另一半無論生老病死窮富都願意守候著她/他之類的...聽到這裡,我的眼淚也是偷偷的掉下來,但是不敢狂流到是真的,哈哈... 因為,我也深深的期待未來的某一天有人願意為我許下這個承諾。

婚禮結束之後,大家開心的討論這個難得一件的美國婚禮,女孩子們無一不被感動的,甚至於期望自己就是當天的新娘,巴不得馬上就把自己給嫁了。我想,我身邊如果有個伴,我也會有同樣的感動和衝動。結婚是多少人的夢想,起碼我就是這麼一直盼望著。而我也相信,總有一天我一定有機會可以經歷這一切。

加油~

Am I Qualified?

Times went very fast, a week went by. It means I complete one week of my language, there are only 9 weeks remain. I'm not sure that I can pass the final exam after ten weeks of training, but the only words that I can say is "I will do my best".

I definitely have some problems with my learning so far, that's why I ask myself "Am I qualified?" The teaching style here is totally different than Australia. The English I learned in Australia is General English, the skills can be used in our general life easily and I think it is more useful for our life, but what I am going to do in USA is to go to graduate school, therefore the general English skills might not enough for my purpose, that's why the language school here provide the preparation course for university. It's really harder than general English, the learning here point out my weakness as I have known already, that's why I feel so scared now. I know I have to calm down then focus on my learning instead of worrying about the things that still not happen so far. Should I call help? Who can help me? I think I have had enough experiences to handle the nervous situation, right? Anyway, try hard. Don't bring to much bad thinking to current life, just proceed the learning with school's schedule, I know everything will become better than beginning.

I know I can do it, I am the best. Go~

Level III - A Nice Beginning

In order to have topics about using English for today's homework so I write down to write a post today. As for the topic of today's post, I think I also have to record it because it is a good result and beginning to my studying life in Texas.

As I mentioned on yesterday's post, I was impacted by some reasons so I thought I might not perform well on yesterday's replacement test. In this morning, I would know what Level I would attend. Finally, I was in Level III. It's really a good news to me that I can start in Level III as I expect. I know I still have to try hard then pass all exams and get high scores in order to go to master program on fall.

There's nothing about my class need to be recorded because it just the beginning of summer term. But we still had another test in this afternoon, teacher said the test was to check our level is suitable for us or not, but I didn't think there is a good way to check our level. I probably know how to use some grammars but I don't know real name about the grammar, how could I write down the correct answer for the test, right? But I don't wanna show my feeling to teacher because this is the traditional action in this language school. Anyway, I have no choice, I only can follow the instruction and request from school's teacher.

Time is a little bit late in Texas now, I have to leave then write my today's homework, it's very important for me to get the points. I think the more points I can get is better for my learning. OK, see you. I hope my tomorrow's course will get better and better.
