Hi

Hi, everyone.
My name is Tian'en Wan, you can also call me Charles or even Chuck! I am in the department of General Studies. The reason why I chose the department of General Studies is I believe that what I am going to study will not only be my major but also will be my interest, and I am going to enjoy it instead of just study it.
This is the first time that I write a blog so officially (before I just share what I am doing and what I am thinking to my family). It just feel so weird but I am going to get used to this blog.
I have been abroad for a long time before but it was totally different from this. Last time was with my parents and I didn’t have to worry about everything, but now I have to learn how to take care of myself and my friends around me. Life here is totally different from where I came from—Beijing. There is no tall and huge building here that can cover the sky; there is no mountain around the city so that the weather change so sudden that I almost got wet every days after I arrived here. There are so many difference that I still can’t get used to all those changes even though I have been here for a week.
I have met a lot of new friends here in this week. They all are very nice!!! We did tons of things this week to live better in this new environment. We shared a family plan for phone number and we cooked Chinese food almost every days!!! I posted some pictures of our food on the internet and there were many other Chinese students comment under my pictures and they said that they want to join us. Another friend said that they can even smell our food on the lobby of our stage:)
I kind of miss my family and my hometown right now:( but I believe that everything will be ok.
