Introduction

My name is Jiewen Xiao; people also call me Sue, considering my Chinese name is not easy to pronounce. I don’t know why I choose this name, maybe because it’s simple. I come from Guangzhou, China; where is in the southern China. I am majoring in Business, but I am thinking about changing my major. I live on campus, in the Gillson Hall. I've assigned to a triple room, but the third roommate never showed up. The other roommate who did show up is also Chinese, which is kind of convenient. Then my roommate and I decorated the room and moved the furniture all by ourselves and make it looks just like a double room. I am pretty amazed by what we've done.
    
I've studied in the United States for two years. I went to a Catholic high school in Portland, Maine; I spend my junior year and senior year there. It was mandatory for all international students to take ESL; we have done some blogging for homework. But honestly, I don’t use blog except for homework. I don’t feel to exiting to write on the internet since it is a homework essay. It feels like limited to write for homework, it doesn't like the things I write usually to share. It is more like an essay. However, it is more convenient to share and read to our classmates. When I write on the internet, it depends on which application I use to post things. If there are some friends speak other languages following me, I will write in English. But usually I write it in Chinese, because it is easier for me to express myself in my primary language.
