A meaningful week

I have the meaningful days for this weekend. After I busy with my classes and homework on Friday, I went for relaxing to the downtown. I took my favorite Thai foods for my dinner. After that, I explored the downtown with two friends. I found that even though Eau Claire is a small town but it contains the necessaries stuffs and luxurious stuffs. I think that I am going to love Eau Claire gradually.

This afternoon, I have taken part in the ropes course. That was my first time to do the challenging games. I was very surprised that I could success with every game. The word that I can pride myself is "brave" as I have called by others "timid" for a long time. Today onward, I can prove that I am a brave girl. I am sure that I can do more challenging games in the future. What I want say is besides studying, doing some activities can help to release our pressure.

My Dream

"GOOD morning, ladies and gentlemen. We are delighted to welcome you aboard Northwest Airway. Our flight time will be of 7 hours and 45 min...Thank you!" I am now in the flight, and heading to the U.S.?", I talked to myself. Yes, I am. I have never plan to study abroad and leave my country. Why I am here? It is because of my "DREAM" and definitely it brought me here. I have a dream, I hope I could be an actuary. When I have figured out my future, I tried to search the materials related to this field. Unfortunately, I can't take a course in my country's colleges or universities because there are not offering this field to the degree seeker. Consequently, I am taking the American transfer degree.

It is about 30 days I have been in Eau Claire. I have found out there are many differences to study in U.S. compare to my country, Malaysia. For instance, the way of teaching, the big classes, making friends , the foods and so on so for. From the beginning, I found the difficulty to live here and I couldn't get used it. I couldn't understand the professors teaching. I dare not to give my opinion in such a big class. I don't like bun, toast and the fried foods. I miss Malaysia, I miss home, and I miss my lovely family members. One thing has inspired me, that is my dream! Started on that day, I always remind myself; no matter how hard it is I have to be succeed and become an actuary. Today, I find myself have been adjusted well to here even though it is only a short period. My host friend said that I was adapting well and going to live like the American soon.
