A big moment in college life

For everyone who goes to the College of Wooster or knows the College of Wooster, I.S.is a huge project for students at their senior years. I started mine in the spring of 2006. At the beginning, I thought I.S. was like many mini-paper get together. As time passed, I.S.became my "dark time" in life. Every awaken and sleeping moments, all I thought was I.S. Most students at college have their I.S. meetings once a week, however, since I was very worried and nervous about mine, my advisor, Dr. Ramsay, agreed to meet me twice a week minimally or sometimes even more. At the end of the spring 2006 semester, I had written first two chapters of my I.S. I returned home in China for the summer, and of couse, I took my I.S. with me. I wrote the most part of my third chapter in my summer 2006. When this semester, Fall 2006, started, Dr.Ramsay and I continued learning and discussed game theory together, and learnt Nash equilibrium point and Nash theorem. While I was learning math part of I.S. with Dr. Ramsay, I revised it with the writing center, Mrs. Hampton, Katryn, Lenni, and Jenny all were very helpful. I revised at least 3 or 4 times of my I.S. before I turned in on Thursday, the 9th day of November 2006. The 9th day of November 2006 became a day in my heart that I will never forget about life at college.
Handing in I.S. is a big deal. Now I look back to my "dark time" of learning and writing I.S., I think that it was not a torture, instead, I am glad that I did it!

Last fall in Wooster

It has been a very long since last post. I have been very busy with my rough life in reality. Last summer as a student at college was long enough for me to get rest and put my thoughts together for a new semester. Last year, I was smiling when I saw seniors finishing up their studies at Wooster. I can not believe that now is my turn to use every awaken moment to work on I.S. And wish the endline could be later than November 13th 2006. I do not know why that a part of me is not ready to leave Wooster for a new life. Last night I moved in to my dorm room, and it was smaller than my last semester's double single in Armington with seniors. I hope that I could move all my stuff into the single room. I decided not to attend any crazy parties this semester on the planes back to U.S. I would love to remember my last fall at Wooster with sober mind. I hope I will have a smooth semester and receive good grades. My only goal of this semester is at the moment of leaving campus on December 2006, I will have a smile on the face instead of tears in my eyes.

The Night before the Last Day of Classes

There are so many things happened in my life at college during this school year. One of my friends named Brittany always says to me that things happen for reasons, both good and bad. Something happens to us, in order to make us realize that life is very short, and very valuable. Something happens to us, in order to make us think that we are very lucky to be at the college. Something happens to us, in order to make us know that we are very furnate to have friends that actually care about us. I know that the world we are living in right now, it changes very fast everyday, some mornings I wake up, I could not believe that the weeks have gone by. Tonight is the night before the last day of classes, most of my friends have so much work to do, because they save all their semester worth work to the very last minute.

Last Radio Show of the semester

This afternoon I did my last radio show of the semester. One of my friends at college suprisely droped by and visited me for 20 minutes in the station. I was very glad. After the guest left, I realized that it was going to be my last radio show of the semester, and I became a little bit sad. I do not like endings at all, because when something comes to the end, it means that it will only be in the memories. I played songs, and told listeners about my summer plans, such as spending time with my family, my friends and travelings. I hope that next semester, a.k.a. my last semester at Wooster, and last semester at college as undergraduate student, I will find time to continue doing my radio show weekly. I love to talk on the air and share my favorite musics with everyone who is listening to my shows. It was rather scary to think that I have been doing the radio shows since the 1st semester of my college life at Wooster. 7 semesters flies by very quickly. I was wondering where the time has been. Well, time for me to visit my Pastor before summer vocation. Hope everyone have a great night!

Last meeting with Wooster Volunteer Network

This morning, I got up at 10am to go to my very last WVN meeting, because I will no longer be a exective board memember of WVN next year. After I have been on the board since I was sophmore college year, I finally decided to step down during my last semester of college years. I know that I do not like saying goodbyes to things that I have been part of for a long time, or to people that I have known for a long time. After been through 3 years of college life, I finally realize that it is easy to say goodbyes to people before the very last minute. Otherwise, saying goodbyes at very last second will be very painful and tragic. I am pretty sure that new members of WVN board will continue doing awesome job for the Wooster Volunteerism. Saying goodbye to WVN is the very 1st step for me to fade out at the college campus life, and I know that no one ever said that saying goodbye is going to be easy and happy. Well, today is Sunday, and the beginning for the very last week of classes for me in Spring 2006. I will be glad when my finals are over. To me, summer is 11 days ahead! Yay, 11 days!

Last two weeks of classes

Firstly, please allow me to say sorry to all the people who love to read my blogs, because I have been very busy with school work and school activities, such as Wooster Activities Crew, Wooster Volunteer Network, Student Government Association, math club and The Chinese Cultural Club. Today, one of my good friends, Bethany, asked me why I have not posted anything on my blog lately. I was very touched by her caring, and loving friendship. In life, we need friends like Bethany, who really cares about you, and loves to read about your feelings. As I sat in the library, suddenly I realize that there are only two more weeks classes, and then finals. In about 17 days, everything about this school year, 2005-2006 is going to be OVER. At the beginning of the April, I can not wait to begin my summer break, so I can see my family, friends back home, and no need to wake up each morning to go to classes and taking notes. However, today, I felt a little bit sad about the end of school year, because my friends are going to graduate and leave the campus, and Bethany, a girl whom I have known for about 4 years, and she is going to graduate and move on from Wooster, hopefully whenever she goes, she will always remember me and remember to read my blogs. Ending often makes people cry, or think, today is Wednesday, and Wednesdays are called College Night at Woo town, and I should not have cried on the college night, a night full of happiness and joys. I think that once in a while, tears make me realize that I have a great friend like Bethany in my college life at Wooster. During the last two weeks of classes, I will of course keep grades up and party with friends. I will not say a single "Goodbye" to friends who are leaving, because "Goodbyes" will definitely make me cry and wanna time to go back to the summer of 2002, the 1st day of college pre-orientation. College to me has been a place to recieve knowledge about life, wisdom about life, to build life-long friendships, to hang out with friends who from different countries, different religion background, different economic classes, and who have different views of life in general. To the Class of 2006 at The College of Wooster, although I am not going to be at the graduation ( I will be too sad to walk cross the stage), I will always remember the time we have spent together at college, and I will always be proud to be a member of the Class. Although I hate to say goodbyes, in about 17 days, I have to say the word goodbyes to all of you, as I am writing right now, my tears are rushing out my eyes (sorry, I could not help it). I wish each of you best of luck in life, some of you will go to graduate school. some of you will work a real job, earn real pay checks, and some of you will travel around the world. No matter wherever you are, and whenever you are, if you feel lonely or sad, please read my blogs, and know that Da's heart is always next to yours!

Random Deep Thoughts of Life

Dear, friends
Everyday I wake up and ask myself the same question "Why God Brought me to the earth?" Life at college is just too hard, homework, projects, labs, and senior thesis. I want to quit thinking about 8am classes, meeting deadlines for submitting homeworks or applications. Being a part of Student Government Association has been one of the things I would like to do. However, recently I feel that the Students in general do not trust the Student Government, in other words, I do not think that students will ever understand what I am doing to change the campus to a better place. I think that studying at college is mainly for being able to find a decent job, and earning decent money to support family. Before I came to the college, I had all the dreams about being with angels in the Heaven, and every weekend sit in my room and play simple games like candy land with friends or people passing by the hall I am living in. I forgot since when, I started to like going to parties, enjoying drinking with people, and being mad and angry with the world surrounding me. I do not know, seriously, when I am going to find that person whom I would like to be, or whom I actually am. 1 more week till spring break, we will all need to hang in there, and keep positive thoughts in our heart. After spring break, I will enjoy I.S Monday with my class, and to think that I am seeing the light through the darkness of life. After I.S. Monday, days, weeks, even months will go by very quickly. Let us all dream about three-month of summer vocation. I CAN NOT WAIT TO GO HOME FOR SUMMER.
