America Memory

The last week of this semester! Time pass so fast! Meg gonna come back soon and I’m looking forward to listen her stories in China. Everyone is busy doing their final project and paper but I already finished them and I just have three tests next ...

In China, I always think about what a real American Thanksgiving Day is like. And this year, I had my first thanksgiving dinner in American family and had two big meals.

In the afternoon, we went to Crispin mom’s house and she lives...

In the first three days, all of us went to D.C. downtown together by car or metro and we visit National Gallery of Art, American History Museum and Indian Museum. Then, in the forth day, Kirstein and Crispin had something else to do so Isabel and I too...

My flight arrived at Washington D.C. at night. I fell asleep on the plane and when I open my eyes, I saw a tall building appeared and it was close to me. I was thinking about if it is the famous monument and my guess turned out to be right. It is so be...

There was a thanksgiving dinner tonight in International Students Association, Shelley made Chinese food-potato and chicken, and I helped her cooking. After dinner, we went to a friend’s dorm in Design Square and began to cook. I keep running bet...

Doug, the oil-painting professor in CCAD had been to XAFA last year, called me and asked if I could go out today. We went to the Franklin Park and talked a lot about my recently life. Shelley and Nicole have classes in AMF so they can meet him almost e...

Last Tuesday after my Contemporary Art class we went to wexner center for the arts in OSU and listened a lecture given by Luc Tuymans. That is my fourth time to OSU and I remember it is the same building which last time I came and talked to the profess...

All E’s family members are Christian and they go to church every Sunday. Now I know the reason why E wants to come back home every week is that she is a musician in the church and she play drum every Sunday.

I went to the church wit...

We went to the beach yesterday morning and it was so pretty, beautiful, gorgeous and awesome! I don’t know how to describe such a beautiful natural scene. I love water but it is going to winter so I can’t swim in American. The weather is so...

I had a really awesome weekend this week! And my understanding about America family and daily life in this two days is much deeper than three months in CCAD.

My friend Emily invited me to her home which is in Port Clinton, a town near the ...

Tom Kelley, the general manager of IDEO, the world’s leading design consultancy specializing came to our school and gave us a lecture yesterday. The ticket is worth $100 but it is free for CCAD students! I got one by my ID and passport. When I go...

I went to OSU and visited the art administration program today. They were so welcome and warm. One PHD student who just came back fro London yesterday was in her class when I got there so the coordinator talked with me. She introduced some basic inform...

In the big boo, Nicole dressed up like a tree and Shelly liked a rabbit. And we took a photo together which was so strange because I was a vampire. A little vampire wanted to bite a big rabbit.

 

Today I got up at half p...

Tonight was so crazy because of Halloween, one of the most funny and famous western festival. Around eight o’clock, we went to the Boma, a club which was used to be a church. And before Meg went to China, she tried to take us into this club but b...

This is my first Halloween so I was so exciting about it. After my Art Therapy class, I called my friend Emily come down and went to our dorm together. She didn’t get any costume for tonight’s trick or treat so I need to help her. I planed to be a rabb...

Nothing new today and I checked my e-mail just now. It reminded me there is an ISA meeting next Tuesday at 7 pm in Crane Room 301—we’ll be planning the Pow-wow event and our Thanksgiving Feast (we’re going to have an awesome dinner ma...

This weekend was quite easy because I didn’t get too much homework to do (actually I did, I should do my project earlier in order to have a long and happy Thanksgiving holiday.)

Saturday morning, I woke up with a start because of my...

I read many things about Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts’ 60 years anniversary in Meg’s blog. I don’t know why I forgot to mention this important affair. Happy birthday to you, my college! I also saw Char Norman (vi...

When I got into the classroom for my contemporary class I didn’t see Emily, my friend who always earlier than me, and she didn’t appear in the class later. I thought she was ill or got some emergencies. But when the class passed a half, I g...

 

        I like our Contemporary Art class teacher Susan very much. She is so special that I never had an instructor like her. At the beginning of today’s class, she told us that we would ...

 

 

       Thanks very much of my guide Mc who showed me around Ohio State University campus in such a cold day and treated me delicious chicken wings!

        I got an “A” for my History of America Illustration mid-term exam, but maybe this is the easiest one because our teacher read the answer during our test.

Hi friends! This is my new blog and my homework (I have an ESL-writing class and one of our assignments is to write journal four times a week). Since Shelley and Nicole both use blog bus to write their weekly journal, I decide to set up one like theirs...
