From 2013/09/01 until right now, I’ve spent over 4 months’ campus life in SUIS. During these months, I think I worked hard and have already eventually become one of the school members.
I’ve got too much to write, and it makes me don’t know what to write down first. Nevertheless, I started to write the first event, which I think was a major part of my four-month-campus life- I met new people. And usually it follows by making friends. I guess I have made a few friends in this school among boys and girls in these 4 months.
The second event I would like to indicate is my new habits. The American education system is way different from Chinese education system; thereby I need to change myself to follow up. My worksheets turned into my laptop. My desks became my locker. My classrooms are everywhere. Most importantly, my anxiety of tests, exams, and quizzes went nowhere. The timetable seems have become more flexible. Thanks to that, for the first time in forever, I got plenty of time to do what I urged to do. Perhaps that’s why my folks usually tell me transferring to this school is sort of setting me free from a jail, which was used to be everlasting.
The grades are another part need to be concerned about after studying for 4 months. I reckon I did well in my first semester. For the first term I got 9As and 2Bs, and the final result for the whole semester still remained 9As and 2Bs, though the specific subjects changed. My German improved and got an A, however my grade of Chinese declined to B. Ironically, my Chinese History was always B, which I thought, is quite strange and unbelievable. My dad blamed me on that. As what he thought, Chinese is my mother tongue. Also I’ve learned Chinese History before. I should have handled it very easily, however I didn’t. Well, I’m still astonished by that. Maybe I need to work harder on my Chinese next semester.
I don’t reckon my whole semester went through perfectly. Many challenges lied on my way. The first immense one was the Student Council Election. Thanks to everyone for their toleration and help; especially, Sy and Carter for assisting me go through this. Academically, I was afraid of my English, and now my anxiety still remains. I guess it’s normal since many of us are not native speaker. My fear reached the peak after attending CISSMUN. I had to try extremely hard so that I could catch what the native speakers’ were saying. The resolutions were filled up with tons of SAT words; I could hardly understand any of those words. I reckon my pressure can turn into motivation. I’m now reading Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird. Hopefully, I will have some progress during reading.
To draw a conclusion, I was excited about my following semester and looking forward to new experiences. I wish I could improve myself from many aspects.
P.S. Happy New Year!
