9月21日 The Most Beautiful life ever....Have been here for 20 days. Everything is fine.
Cann't love the life here any more. Go to bed early, get up early. Learning gitar from my dear roomie Ryan, she's soooooooooo nice and brilliant!!!! love her so much!!! Her mum sends greetings to me every week! Even sent gifts to me!! Earrings and necklace she made herself! Oh my god.I nearly cried when I read her letter!!! Got good friends here, lovely and sincere, with a lot of common interests. Food is fantastic. Can't stop eating. Found two churches here successfully, one Chinese, one American style. Enjoy going. Even met my favourite Econ Professor there at the little church...had a really nice talk.
I have macro, micro theory, econometrics,and contemporray chinese fiction this semester. By the way, also a dancing course, haha. That's necessary for me, always.
Beautiful life, slow and peaceful. The only problem, not feel like being back to HK. 9月10日 还有谁即将来美国?????亲爱的们, 在Lynne和佳宁即将踏上征途之前, 写一点小小经验, 哈哈, 最好能有一点点帮助.
1. 美国这里要办手机套餐不容易, 要先有security NO.,而且套餐基本都两年一签, 所以象我们这样短期的要么就不用, 要么就用相当贵的"prepay"的卡. 所以不要想一来就很顺利的搞定手机,然后给家里打电话. 最直接的办法是找到固定电话, 然后买卡打, 但是刚刚到的话这也有一定难度. 所以我强烈推荐你们先往skype 帐户里充点值,然后一到美国立刻可以给所有人打电话报平安, 打到中国不到两毛钱一分钟...非常好用, 经验之谈. 2.这里的教科书死贵死贵, 我的两门ECON都要一百美元以上一本....破产...所以你们尽量在国内问好教科书然后买买看, 能买到相似的带去先用着也好!!!到了这里基本也是网上买比较合算....
3.我觉得这里的东西还是比较好吃的, 很容易发胖的所以.....不过也有可能你们觉得超级难吃, 就象我刚来那几天的感受...所以只要不超重, 吃的能多带点就多带点, 美国入境检查很松的, 托运的箱子多装点吃的, 别嫌多..你们要呆一年哪...别到了这里后悔!!!! 但请注意入境的时候身上别带水果, 他们用狗来检查, 超级衰..(I mean一旦被狗闻出来然后当众被强行要求打开随身的包包...).
4. 最后,带张海报吧, 装饰下房间,被跟美国室友形成太鲜明的对比, 哈哈, 这里海报算下来还要一百块人民币呢...~~
暂时就这么多...~~~纯属个人意见, 说错别打我...
9月4日 New life begins in America New life begins at Mount Holyoke.
Anyway, this is the first time that I don't feel homesick at all, after all those places away from home. Everything is fine, so don't worry about me, my dear friends. Getting a simcard for my cellphone is much harder than I had imagined......thanks to skype, I can make phone calls to my mum and dad.
People here at this college are really nice, as I had expected. Beautiful campus, nice weather, and nice people. Only the food!!! I have great problem with that. Besides, keep worrying about my English. Language, language, language!!! Always the barrier to getting accustomed.
Have taken lots of photos, just have no time to share. Orientation is always tiring, but not as terrible as the O-camp in HK.Guys who have experience O-camp are not supposed to fear anything, I guess. |
