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.
I agree that write online as homework feels wired and has more limitation.
