Farewell Shanghai,Farewell everyone care of me
I left Shanghai at 9:05a.m,Aug 16 of Peking time from PVG(Pudong airport).Farewell my husband,my family,my friends,my hometown.When I left home,my daughter was still sleeping sweet.I don’t want to tell her how I love her and just hope her to be a happy life during the four months without mother. Take good care of my daughter.She is so young that she can’t understand why her mother leaves her.I will always regard to her.

Greenwood ,I arrive! Lander,I arrive!
I arrived GSP(Greeenville Airport) at 6:30p.m,Aug 16 of U.S. time after approximately twenty hours’ flight.When I was walking with my luggage at the airport,a happy voice occurred behind,’Alice!Alice!’I can’t forget the first calling.I turned round and excitedly saw Boyoung and her good friend, Elisabeth.We greeted to each other as if we’ve known about for a long time.When I sit in Boyoung’s car,seeing different scene from Shanghai——wide view,filled with green,so close to the heaven,beautiful country houses,a voice sounds in my heart,‘Greenwood ,I arrive! Lander,I arrive!’
Boyoung took us to the Mexican restaurant which Elisabeth likes by her white Toyota.This is the frist
time I have the Mexican food. I think I will have many first times after coming here.To much food to me which you can’t imagine.We enjoyed ourselves .After the dinner,Boyoung took me to the nearest Waltmart and I bought what I need.
We went back our house too late but I had no sleepiness.It was 10:15 at night.When we were ready to get the luggage from the car,Boyoung told me Po Hu was walking towards us from his
house opposite ours.Po Hu ,I just knew he is the new dean of International Program Office.At that moment ,I didn’t know how to call him because I couldn’t think I would meet him under this circumstance.But more unexpectedly,when Po Hu came up to me,he said,’Chen lao shi,nin hao.”Just speak Chinese.He is a Chinese.What he did made me relaxed.I heard Boyoung say ‘I cann’t imagine you
are waiting for us back all the time’.Appreciation was full of my heart.We made a short talking.I’m surprised that he is a young dean.
This is a good beginning.The new semester won’t begin until Sep 2.So I’ve some time to know
about here.Beautiful scene,kind people,relaxed atmosphere——I’m sure I will like
here——Greenwood,Lander.

The big house I live with Boyoung
This is a big house l will live with Boyoung for four months.It is surrounded by green.It is clean and quiet.I have my own bedroom,own bathroom.The house has big kitchen,big sitting room,big garage and other room.Cooking and washing are easy here.I can use the wifi all the time.Boyoung told me she had been the house for one year.When Caddie came here as the first international visiting scholar,she and Boyoung live the dormitory beside the house.
The most important thing is that Boyoung is my good neighbor.She is a pretty Korean girl.She speaks English very well.I can talk with her in English all the time.She let me feel comfortable.She helps me a lot.She tries to let me know everything she says.I think she is a good English teacher for me.We like to talk to each other after each dinner.We talk about our friends,our families,our lifes ,our thoughts and so on.She introduces her best friend to me.We become familiar with each other.We do cooking for each other.She likes eggs I boiled and I like pasta she made.We’d walk around the campus after dinner.She is my first friend when I come here.

The special dinner for me made by Po Hu.
The second day after I arrived,Aug 17,I will never forget it.That day I was told by Boyoung that Po Hu would come to our house at 5 p.m and have dinner with us.
At 5 o’clock afternoon,Po Hu appeared outside the door.To my surprise,he said he brought his
red wine and would do the dinner for us.Really?I can’t imagine that.A dean does cooking for us by himself.But that’s true.How particularly welcome to me!Before we were aware of that,Po had began his cooking!He cut meat,washed tomatos,made burdening fluently.Fried ribs and tomato eggs soup are his master pieces this night.He said he would do everything he wants to eat.When he doesn’t know how to
cook some food,he will seek the practice on line.If you want to eat,you should learn to cook.At the meanwhile,Boyoung did another style meat.Soon we had the dinner.We drank the red wine and cheered. Po told us his family,his study and his thought.Hu Po is his Chinese name.He has been America for 12 years.His English is very well.He had a son,six years old.He shew the picture of his son
to us.How handsome!Now he stays with his mother in another state.I think Po must miss them very much just as I miss my family.He said in fact he just came here two weeks ago.Here is also unfamiliar to him.He is a new dean of International Program Office. We talked a lot ,though sometimes I can’t catch the words ,I think it doesn’t matter.I will adapt to the life here quickly because I have a
good leader.
Special dinner,special atmosphere,I was moved and will remember the special way all the time.Thank you ,Po!Thank you,Boyoung!

My first day in office.Go with me!
Today is Monday,Aug.19.The forth day I came here.I go to my office by Boyoung’s car at 7:45 in the morning.Our house is inside the university,so it is close to our office.There is no people walking on the road except cars.Boyoung told me there is no taxi or bus here.America is a car country.We arrived the office,which is on the second floor of Larry A Jackson Library.It’s easy for us to read books there.When you enter the office,you can see my desk first.Go straight ahead,you will see three rooms——they are Po Hu、Boyoung and Jeff’s office.They are indepentant.Opposite their offices,it is the meeting room.
At 9 o’clock,we have the first department meeting,managed by Po.I was told we would have such department meeting each Monday and Wednesday .Jeff、Boyoung、Katherine (she is an English teacher,Jeff’s assisant)and I attend the meeting.At first,Po introduce me to his staff and express his welcome to me.Secondly,they talked about the international student orientation.Boyoung had done a very detailed schedual.I just heard what they were talking about.The meeting is short but the discussion
is very targeted.I think many problems have been solved.I will try to know about everything.Next week,many international students will arrive——two students of Shanghai Normal University,seven students of Shanda University and seventeen students of Korean.I expect to meet them soon.
After the meeting,Boyoung told me I would meet Mr. Randy Bouknight,the vice president of
student affairs and I’d better give my study plan to his assistant Pam. I think I should prepare for that well.And all the afternoon,I modified my study plan.I wrote down 14 points I want to know about and especially mentioned that I’d like to participate all kinds of activities,meetings.I want to know more about American’s education.Before work,I sent my study plan to Boyoung.
This day I got the schedual of RA training by e-mail sent from Boyoung.So detailed the schedual
is!So abundant the content is!You can’t imagine how surprised I am!RA means residence assistant.All of the RAs are students.They are in charge of students’ residence.RA training begun last Sunday.It will proceed to next Tuesday,Aug 27.The weekend is off.It will continue eight days. How lucky I am!Thank you ,joyce Cai!She hoped me to arrive Lander early and have the opportunity to attend RA training.Boyoung told me I’m the first scholar from Shanghai to attend RA training,as RA training is held every the last ten days of August before the new semester begins.
