SMU Research Paper

The things that followed up wasn’t as smooth as I thought it would have been, especially with the rigidness of academic driven chinese society. The school in China that I attended was no exception to the Chinese teachings, following a strict work schedule that kept me up until 11 on most nights.

Transferring from a two-year institution to one of the most protégées HBCU's in this country was one of the best life decision I could've made. The astrosphere at my HBCU is second to none. At the point when untouchables specify my establishment first thing that comes to the theme is the legendary "Marching Storm" or our world-class nursing program yet this is simply to give some examples. But with all these incredible trademarks I as an understudy still face worries about foundations with living arrangements, financial aid, and the absence of the educational programs field to consider in. These are just a few concerns to name that rarely gets the mention by outsiders looking in that I as a Prairie

I, Bao Nguyen, as a Vietnamese immigrant that came to America in December, 2007, faced many struggles and difficulties merging one society to another. It was hard to adapt into a new way of life as I making the transition. I remember spending my first Christmas with my cousins, who only speak english because they were born in US. It was awkward most of the time but my uncles and aunts made me feel better by saying that I will fit in real quick. Then come Spring, my school transfer papers completed and I started to attend school. As a transfer student that can’t speak english, fitting in was not easy. My classmates looked at me with strange look, no one want to help me unless they were told to do so. They all made me felt excluded from the

The buildings around the San Francisco Museum of Modern art, are skyscrapers and geometric shaped buildings. The SFMoMa stands out, with its color and design. As looking at the SFMoMa from across the street, the circular structure within the SFMoMa drives they eye to look at it because of how out of place it looks compared to the building itself

As a freshman in high school, I had not known the significance of the name Carnegie Mellon when others mentioned that it was their dream school. Because I attended a STEM school. I heard many talk about the opportunities Carnegie Mellon could offer to individuals. This sparked my interest to research Carnegie Mellon for myself and discern if I could find myself attending such a school. What I initially noticed about Carnegie Mellon was that it was ranked really well in computer science, engineering, and drama, all fields that I did not want to pursue. Unfortunately, that diminished any depiction in my mind of Carnegie Mellon being a dream school for me.

The school rule “students must partake in extracurricular activity” is a significant disturbance to students whom are in their final year of secondary education. Extracurricular activities such as sports day and compulsory sport for the school produces an inconvenience to senior students whom have hoards of assignments to complete and tests to revise for. A better alternative to this rule would be to provide senior students the option of partaking in extracurricular activities if they wish to do so. This provides senior students with hours of extra free time in which they will be able to complete assignments and study for tests. In addition, the work load in year 12 is already a struggle for students to juggle and the addition of extracurricular

When I first came to college, I was almost certain that I would want to go to medical school. It was easy for me to try hard in all my high school classes because I saw them as a clear path to what I would want to have as a future career. During my first semester here at the U though, I was frustrated by the difficulty and dissonance between how I wanted to be spending my time and what doing pre-med classes entailed. I loved thinking about biological concepts, by doing physics and chemistry problem sets for hours on end made me feel like I was doing the wrong thing. It wasn’t that I stopped wanting to be a doctor; but I had, and still have doubts about whether that end goal justifies the truly arduous journey it takes to do so. I also realized how much I enjoyed being in nature. I want to make being outside in beautiful places a central part of my life in the future, not something that only happens on the side.

I was born three weeks early. Due to this and my temperament, I soon acquired the name “Bamm- Bamm” from my uncle. My family said I was strong and moved like a drill bit in their arms when they held me as a baby. When I was older and learned what my nickname actually meant, I was thrilled. I did not care that “Bamm-Bamm” was a boy Flintstone character, I wasn’t offended by this. This nickname implied strength and even though they might not know this, the strength my family gave me in my childhood nickname has carried me throughout tough times.

First off, let me introduce myself a little bit. I am Veronica. I born in Dallas Texas and raised in Hong Kong. I come from a small Asian family I live with my parent and one little brother in an appartment. I came to US when I was 18 to continue my study. I spent most of my childhood in Hong Kong. I 've been to many parts of the rest of China such as Beijing, Sichuan, and Guizhou. I was able to explore local high school life and I had the opportunity to see the recovery of places after serious earthquakes. Of course, I 've also spent many years in the United States to study.

Yuan (2011) examined the experiences of ten Chinese students at one American university. This study examined the challenges faced by Chinese international students, their social interaction, and their attitudes to adapting into the American culture and society. The result indicated that Chinese participants identified spoken English and class discussion as their major challenges while studying at American higher education institutions. Besides, they stated limited interaction with Americans. However, most of them highly praised the American educational system and regarded their experiences in the United States as being worthwhile. It is also worth noting that the Chinese participants expressed mixed perceptions of American culture and different attitudes to cultural assimilation.

Being born and raised in China, I chose to spend most of my past five years in an Alabaman high school by myself, and interestingly, despite that I am clearly more of a Chinese than an American, every time when I return to China for summer holiday, I found myself flabbergasted by virtually everything (I seem to only realize the cultural differences when I return to where I belong.) However, most of these surprises did not only remind me of the differences between U.S. and China, but also enabled me to keep myself up with the Chinese society and learn how I should adapt to the differences between cultures.

I am Huang, Chi from Taiwan, where is a very different place compare to Arizona. The languages, cultures, and living styles are totally different; we speak Mandarin and Taiwanese in our hometown. The most popular religion people believe in Taiwan is Buddhism and Daoism, unlike western culture its Christianity and Catholicism. My family is a simple family consisted of four people, and everyone is open-minded to new cultures and thinks internationally. My dad sent me to an International school in Taiwan, the circumstance of family contribute me to an Open-minded thinker and can be a empathy person to accept different cultures. Now, I’m an adult in Taiwan, the most important goal now is to really

I not only started college in U.S. but also became more mature than in China. Like normal children, I preferred fiction in childhood and always dreamed of being a royal to rule others, which caused self-centeredness. However in America, I began thinking about others more than myself and trying to improve myself through the reaction of others. Having a roommate, I learned to organize my personal belongings and take care of others. Especially after working part-time at the dining hall, I enhanced the way I treat others: always being patient and polite. At eighteen years old, I

U.S.A is one of countries where Chinese choose to study in. In 2015, the number of Chinese international students in U.S.A raised to 328,547 which make up thirty and half of one percent of international students in the U.S.A. (Institute of international Education, 2015). Chinese students are attracted by free education styles and diversity of cultures in American universities. I studied at
