Preparation for France

As a débutant to a western country, I am filled with excitement but also anxiety. Last night before sleep, I reflected on my year back, trying to retrive my achievements so far to lessen the unnecessary angst. Science Po was my first choice for exchange in 2009. Then, in order to improve my language proficiency, I started to study English and French more strategically to deal with the Toefl ibt and FLPT, the latter a foreign language proficencly exam only used in Taiwan to evaluate a student. Also, to realize my dream, I start to build contact with foreign students. Luckily, I met my friend Dominique on BBS, who then opened up all the other contacts that I appreciated later on. Taiwanese students such as Amy, Cindy, Jeanne, a politic major, French students such as Quemin, Hatoumata. These friendship are very important for me.

I would describe myself as a white paper, not knowing what is awaiting for me before me. However, I believe that the adventure to France is worthwhile. Be it a self-searching journey or and dream pursueing path. In Paris, France, a city that I have long dreamed of, the answer is unlimited. There will be many interesting people waiting for me to know, and lot of new stories.
