Hello, everybody, my name is Mindy.I have been here for more than two years. In 2008, we moved to Florida which was our original plan. I went to high school for three months and there were only three Chinese people (of course including me) in the school. It sounds wired but it’s true. Then, my parents decided to move to New York so I come with them.
In my new high school, I make lots of friends. Friends always make me happy. There once a saying: if you are happy, then share with your friends, the happiness will booms as twice as before; if you are sad, still share with your friends, then your sadness will just left half of it. In this way, I like to help others to solve problems. I feel so powerful because of that. Maybe that is one of the easy ways to make friends. Besides that, as an immigrant, I really know it is so hard to get used into such a new environment with poor English. It is much better if someone give you a hand in time. I still remembered my first school-day in Florida. There was a guy who helped me a lot so that I didn’t feel lonely and upset at that moment. Until now, I feel so happy about helping people. That’s what I learn from my friends and I will continually do it. And now, I’m in college, I surely need somebody’s help.
One thing I think I am afraid of is blood, I mean great amount of my blood. Every-time I have blood test, I feel dizzy and want to throw out. So I never have a blood drive even though I really want to. One day, I told my friend I wannna donate my blood, and she was liked: oh, no, don’t go! If you donate 200 cc bloods, then they have to give back 600 cc to you.” Although it is a joke, it might be true.
And i think i am a pretty easy-going and optimistic girl. And this can be reflected from my drawing.I always use the bright color. I think u like drawing. The reason I use” I think” is I never draw in China. However, I draw sometimes. Here is my some works. It is not really good because I have never learned it.
