Yesterday, Michelle and I went to the Rubin museum. I’m not good at the art, this is my second time of newyork museum. Before I went there I just treat this trip as a mission of my FRO class. I had never think I will like the museum so much. At first we found a wrong place , and the real museum has a big contrast in my heart. There is really attracted me.  

Rubin museum has many collections of   the Tibetan Buddhist and the Himalayan art.In addition to programs dedicated to the exploration of the fundamentals of Himalayan arts and cultures, the Rubin Museum’s programming serves as a catalyst for cross-cultural exploration. Therefor there has many bronze art casting of Buddhism. I’m enjoy in these art and history, and feels like got into another world.  There has a big map of the Buddhism source place. I found my hometown on that map and felt so happy. Tibet is one of the Buddhist source place ,so Buddhism has a big influnce on Chinese culture. We can easily find any temples in China. When I saw these art casting I have a second felt I was back China.  India is another buddhist country, the Buddhist art there is a little different from Tibet.I had saw many kind of buddha I never saw in China. I am really enjoy this tirp , when we went out the musim I had told Michelle I felt like went an other country before.

I don’t know why I can’t add some picture in my post here is the link of my museum pictures. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=35197&id=100000639180959

Today the topic is monologue. Actually I don’t know how to start this monologue. Now  I will talk something about my life in Newyork.

At the first I came here I feel really strange . I have no friends here and nobody can talk with me . Although I leaving with my father, because I haven’t saw him almost 10 years so I feel really lonly. I can clearly memorized the first week I came here, I sat at the windowsill and look outside for howl day. No talking , no shopping, no playing but just crying. I miss everything everyone in China and I felt no one know my feeling. I know it’s sounds a lie , but I live in that statue for almost 2 months. Then I went to the ESL program. There have many peopel are in the samilar age as me. But I still afried made firends. If nobody talk with me I wouldn’t made a sounds. Step by step, I became more and more shy and sensitive, but it is not a real me. I can’t find the outgoing me anymore.

The most fortunate thing  is I met a really nice teacher at the esl program. She is a really nice person, the first time I talk to her I felt I had knew her for a long time. She never  joke my broken English and give me lots of confidence. At that I met my first firend in US. She is my father’s firend’s daughter. Like destiny, we like each other very much at the first time . She help me made a bank card, help me apply the college, shopping with me and let me made friends. I really think if no her ,there is no day’s  happy me.

Now I had two part time work. Have many firends in baruch. Like every normal international student enjoy the new life in Baruch. Although some time I will fell lonely agine, I always can find somebody to talk with . I like update my picture on the facebook or my own page . My firends who are in China all said I looks perfect. Actually I am not very care about whatever I looks. The most thing I care is the change of myself. I start like this city, this country and the people here.

Now  understand that if Ican’t change the situation around me ,I must change myself to adapt the surrounding. And then I will find a new world and start enjoy  it!

     Hi, my name is weiyao sun. I’m a traditional Chinese girl. My friends said that the smile is the sign of me because i always smiling. I’m really outgoing so my friends always trade me as a boy. In my life the music is a big part. I love music. That’s why i carry my ipod every where. I’m very glad to say i am a Chinese. Although here has lots of Chinese want to be a real American people , i still think they shouldn’t throw the Chinese clutre. I think I am a trouble maker that I always did the silly things. Maybe i still finding a good way to live. I’m not a confident person,but I love myself. Because i think the person who know love himself is the real man who know how to love others.

  I’m really enjoy my new college life but also I have many concerns. The top 1 is how to follow the class well. I just came the United States for 1 year. Though I have learned English during my high school it also hard for me to catch others here in college. These days I found myself became really sensitive and got angry easily. I angred about my grammar when I saw lots of red marks , I angered about my pronouciation when I chat with my calssmate. I know that not a good things to me. I trying to change and i also think it need times. The second one is about my health. In these days i already throw my diet away. I have no time to have my lunch on every monday and wednesday.So after I back home, I never mind the what I had ate. That cause my weight grows faster and faster. In addition i sleep more and more late at night . That might be the real college life. The third concern is about how to adapt to the new life. I need firends not only my small Chinese group. I thind i need to join in the American culture.

 I graduated my high school in China. So every thing to me in college is sounds new. I need change the way to learn English. At here I learned to live on college life. Because in China every thing is  easy to followed. At school the only thing you need to do is study. Therefore ,also sometime i felt sad but i still love the life.

After the first year at Baruch . I think my English will improve a lot. I am sure everybody will see a new me at that time.
