Hummm..Humm...HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...
We are having cats and dogs raining at home, I mean my China home. a level 10 typhoon. Here, some rain drops were seen for several seconds. Weather is an interesting thing. Jetlag is interesting also. Say good night to my parents when we are having the sun from the east. See them having lunch when I stay up late. Interesting, interesting, and interesting...So are different cultures.
Well, this post will be very random. Or...all my posts are random. Just like lightening random thoughts in my brain.
I have changed a little bit in this two years in U.S.A. Such as...
1. have ice in my drinks except hot ones.
2. drink coffee, just sweet ones, like vanilla or caramel
3. have simple breakfast, cereal or peanut butter toast
4. driving? well, let's not talk about the driving skills.
5. not afraid of cops any more on the road even if they blow around. I was afraid of them not because I was arrested before, it was because my very first driving got chased by them...detail stories? maybe next time. :P I will let you assume Asian drivers are bad drivers, which has already been a stereotype for a long time.
6. drink tea with honey and ice! goodness. I can imagine what my family and my friends in China will think about me when they see this. We never drink tea with honey and ice. We just drink hot tea.
7. like being tan?!? My mom might freak out when she see my dark skin...You will see people carry umbrellas everywhere, not just raining days, also sunny days like this. They wear sunscreen and carry umbrellas. Humm..double protections. I am just too lazy to carry it so I don't care being tan. Too much sun exposure is also not too good for skin sometimes.
8. study at coffee shops. I didn't study at any coffee shops until I came here. I felt weird when my American sister Tess brought me to the Blend to study. But now, I am jumping around different coffee shops. One of my records, went to 5 different coffee shops in one week. @.@ Am I crazy?
9. have too much meat, even though I love it! :P Too much meat is really not good for digestion. I tested that. OR, maybe I have an Asian stomach?? >.<
There are lots of changes, which I might not realize by myself...until I go back to my own country? OoO
These days, I have been studying for my sociology. Last week of summer school! :)
Going to Rocky Mountains Field Trip on Friday morning, and I haven't pack yet. Hahahaha..successful procrastinator! At least, I got myself swimming suit, which is kinda big deal. I need this equipment even though I don't know how to swim. Well, maybe it won't help at all when I drown.
Hummm...right now, I might as well fight with the procrastinating elements, which are in my way of studying.
I might win this battle. ^.^

I am back to here!!
Okeydokey, it is time to update this got-forgotten-desert-blog.
Last post was on January 25, 2012. Teehee, ya, it has been a while.
Hummm. what happened between 1.25 and 7.16?
1.Got accepted by OSF. Maybe this is the biggest good news this year.
2.Finally done with all anatomy and English classes before nursing school. I love the anatomy classes, my teacher also. He was very helpful. I could take the test for forever at the test center every time.
3.Clean for grandma Plattner every month. Grandma is very funny and cute. Love her.
4.Made more friends. Mostly AC friends, who are very nice, cool, awesome, considerate, creative, don't care about my poor English, encouraging, and something good. <---limited English makes me not able to say more good words.
5.Cooked at the ICC International Fair. We cooked fried rice noodles, butter milk biscuits, and egg rolls. I think this was my last time to attend this fair because I will be at OSF next year. Probably I will come back to eat. :P
6.Obsessed with bdubs. How much have I been obsessed with that? Maybe you can tell from my friends or the waiters at bdubs. They all know I go there almost every week, or, every two weeks. Got to know every single special at their restaurant. I might be able to fly someday since I have had so much wings.
7.Went to Lawrence, Kansas to visit my high school roommate, Jocelyn, for ten days in this summer. It was very fun to hang out with this old friend, even though we didn't really do very much stuff. The good time was to be together and talk forever without any embarrassment or language barrier. Well, actually, our Chinese is getting worse. SAD!
8. Didn't have too many plans after spring semester in May so I wrote a lot of postcards which are collected from last two years from the places I have ever been. Many friends in China got the postcards and some of them didn't. Maybe some postcards fell into the Pacific Ocean.
9. Went to Penn State with a sweet and smart girl, Emily Knepp, last Tuesday and Wednesday. It was another good roadtrip time. I thought people from there might be as so-called rude as people from east coast. It is definitely not because I went to prove it. :P People are very nice and polite. OK. Now I don't need to worry about Emily. It was a long trip also. What I learnt most from this trip is to pump the fist to the semi truck drivers. Most of the drivers did blow the horn. How nice!
10. Went to AC teen camp+family camp in Indiana last four days. It was awesome! I just love this camp so much. I was there last year and I just hung around my American sister, Tess P. because I was TOO shy to make friends. :P This year, I don't know why I feel very comfortable with making new friends. I love worship, devotions, games, and people there. A lot of touching devotions and music. I think I am so much closer to God than before.
9. My very good friends Eric and Jo moved to New Mexico except Eric is still in IL, but based on Jo's FB, I got to know their house was sold! I am so happy for them! I love going to their house here. They always listen to me and give me good suggestions. Also, they always make me awesome food. They just spoil me so much. Love them!
11.Trish and Kyle got back last month for Shannon's wedding, which was my first time to attend American wedding. They brought a lot of different stories and experience back. I really want to go to Africa sometime in my life.
10.I miss my sweet American sister now, who is in beautiful classic Scotland. She is my very good friend, who always listen to me also. And she is very smart and encouraging.
11.I miss my family in China too. It seems like I am not a good daughter because I haven't talked to my mom too much, but I definitely miss them and love them.
12.Last but not the least, our cat, specifically, it is Tess' cat, Shakespear or Lionel, has been lost for months. I really wanted it disappear sometimes when he was here. However, I am not that cruel, I guess. I feel bad now for my not-liking-cats thoughts. I just hope some cat lovers adopted him.
13. Gonna work hard this two weeks for my online summer class before I take off to Wyoming, South Decota, and Nebraska. Hopefully I won't be eaten by a bear.
14.Hooray for my updated long post, including the background, fonds, and this post! :P
