Hi, my name is Jianjun Mo, most of my friends call me JJ. But I am not that JJ who is a popular singer in China, I am me . I have been here for more than two years. I am very clear to remember which day I came to here. It was May 12, 2008, because it was the earthquake of Sichuan (Szechwan). Since I have been here, My whole life is changed. I remembered the first week when I came to here, I wanted to cry. For that new environment, I have no friends, poor English and I don’t know anything about it. After I go to high school, my life has been changed again. My high school is special because it is for immigrants who are overage (18) and most of the students are ESL students. I remembered the first day when I went to school, I did’t really understand what did the teacher talk about. I make a lot of friends and after two years I almost know everyone ( chinese) in my high school. For that reason, I always speak chinese with my friends. Thus, my English still very bad. I am an easy-going person, I hope I can make any foreign friends at Baruch that I can improve my English and been a part of their lives.
Now, I become a part of Baruch. However, I find out my college’s life at Baruch is very terrible. I mean my grade. The first test in all of my classes I feel very terrible. However, those days I ask myself, am I work hard? The answer is no. I know since I have been here, I rarely be positive of my life, I know I am escaping. But now, I will be different. Those weeks, I realize many things form my life, my firends…even I still do not know what I am trying to be but I will face the problems. Now, I realize what is the most important to me …
I love music – especially my own music. I like to create music depend on my mood and emotion and my inspiration, because they can reflect me, what I trying to say and trying to be. But my music is very short and simple because I am not that professional. I used to make a whole song with my friend about five or six years ago, but I forget the lyric about the song. I hope in the future I can remember that song because it means a lot to me.
