SO! My 1st senior semester is over. I am so glad that I have survived all my classes and clinical. At the same time, I still feel that I don't know anything. I am getting closer to graduation. However, there is a complicating feeling in it. I feel so ready to graduate, but at the same time I also feel scared. Is this what I am supposed to feel? I guess. lol.
Don't let this bother me too much. Let's enjoy summer first. I am going to China next Saturday. I am superduper excited although it's gonna be 30 hours trip. I booked the ticket to China last week, which was pretty much last minute thing. I will fly to Turkey from Chicago first. Wish I could go out of the airport and enjoy some Middle East atmosphere. I have never been to other continents other than Asia and North America. Maybe it still counts even if I just fly in and out? lol.
I am excited to go home because I can see my lovely family. Mom has been thinking what to cook for me. Isn't that the greatest? Love my momma! Our first baby of the family, my niece, is 1 year old already! I was there when she was born last year. Good thing I am going home this summer so she can maybe have an image of her aunt? lol. I can't wait to cuddle with her. Well, maybe it will be too hot to cuddle in the summer. :P I remember last summer I didn't get to eat so much because the weather was too hot. I didn't really have an appetite. Hopefully it won't happen this time. I really need to make my stomach happy with those good foods. lol
One of the best things of going home is to meet all my old friends. Good friends are not necessary keeping in touch all the time, but you feel so comfortable and there isn't an awkward moment even if you don't see each other for ages. I love sharing the culture differences with my friends. Most of us think US is more like NYC, Chicago, or California. Who knows it's actually not? I still remember how I exactly felt when I first landed in Peoria Illinois. All my fellow and I thought we were at the wrong place. All we could see was flat buildings, cornfield, less transportation, and barely anybody on the street. We were pretty much shocked by what we saw. But I gradually fell in love with this quiet place. To be honest, there is not much to do here in this "city", but I have met so many friends who have made my journey more wonderful and unforgettable. I have met so many international people here. I can't believe what my life would be if I didn't come here. Graduating from a college,sitting in an office, repeating the same thing everyday, meeting somebody, getting married, building a family?????????? Actually that's really the pattern of many of my friends back home. I am just glad that I am here to experience things that I would never imagine.
mehhh...too lazy to keep writing. :P
