Thank you soo much for still remembering me! I was soo touched! I think of
our Eng dept very often and browse some girls' blogs to see all of ur
pictures from time to time and also ask Apple and Little Fake to keep
updated with our Eng dept . (Honestly, I really think all of you are
getting
soo mature and attractive!) How is everyone doing? I know many of you are
swamped with grad school application stuff. I can't wait to hear more good
news besides Pauline's.
I am sorry to reply to your emails so late as I have been traveling in the
States and don't have a constant access to the Internet. If you don't mind,
can I just type some words and provide one of my latest pictures, instead
of
a short film of me talking? sorry about that~ I hope it won't cause you
any
inconvenience.
There you go~
I would like to thank professors and my fellow classmates in the English
Dept. for the inspiring and engaging environment. When I was in Taiwan, one
concern I shared with many classmates is that we do not know what we can do
as English majors, though a lot of people say a good command of English can
get us everywhere. I was like many of my friends--I doubted whether English
alone could actually be an advantage for my future career path.Don't a lot
of people say learning Literature is impractical?
Since I came to the States, I have been really thankful for analytical,
reading, and writing skills I have acquired in the English Dept. In a world
of overly commercialism, the ability to appreciate different cultures and
approach social and cultural issues thoroughly is an asset that I will
enjoy
for the rest of my life.
For those young and promising ladies (and also the minority group--girls'
best friends--girly guys,our best partners for gossiping and talking about
Lit. ^^), I would like to share this with you all.

gave
an advice to young women today:
"Work hard, learn to read fast, and write well. It will get you almost
anywere."
After reading so many literature texts and taking torturing writing
courses,
I realize what advantage I have against other majors.

I miss our Eng Dept so much! The only thing I might regret for studying
abroad in my senior year is when I go back to Taiwan, most of you will be
gone! Please say hi to everyone. I miss you all, seriously.
If my message is too long, please let me know and I can do some editing. I
am not sure if it is enough or too much. Thank you so much!

small state school and everyone is really close to each other. In this
picture, I was holding the baby of a staff member at a farewell party in
May
(I am done with school already! Don't be jealous.) Isn't he adorable? :)
