Ayusa 國際愛優生文化交流協會

        接待家庭似乎每周都有活動 而夏天的第一聯想就是AIR(otaku標準)先撇開KEY社不說應該就是玩水吧(期待殺必死)不過深在美洲內陸不像台灣有海邊要去哪裡玩水? 問了才知道是要去離轟家很近的湖(4小時以上),不過他們有房子在那裏,所以去湖邊就成了例行活動

               轟弟是釣魚狂(意識清晰下對空氣揮竿(妄想俱現化也不是這樣吧)於是連帶我也要學習…不過好難完全不行 餌的重量,顏色下沉度沒一個聽得懂_ _zzZ (天才也有弱點)反正講那麼多還不是沒釣到 == …晚上大致上就是玩桌棋(14勝1負) 晚餐部分吃之前最好先問(不適能不能吃而是那是啥動物)我還好只吃到了兔肉和香菇(HP減-99999昏迷,中毒狀態)不過有一到我沒吃的問了居然是牛的xx部位 混亂的第一天(還是沒殺必死)

        第二天 晨(明明是暑假為啥我要被5歲的小弟6點叫起阿)(起床不是重點 我要的是蘿..~御主人様~..這才是人生嗎)再扯又要被拖出去 總而言之就是要搭一個地下碉堡?缺搬運工+鋸木工+負責人+天才(自己加)只好幫了 還好有看手斧男孩知道要這麼用不然世界就要少一位偉人了(差點砍死自己)
        詳細報導: 據報導指出為0死1傷,傷者為某天才也,據本人表示當意外發生時正在想Saber以至於切到手(還好沒廢)現場可見大量番茄醬(智商幼稚園以下請離席)為輔合一般觀眾切換為黑白畫面(請勿投訴)ps此為畫面效果.Dino The Great 仍然活著,當場訪問感言Dino:』Saber for ever』 (迷之聲:你還是昏迷算了)報導結束

        下午 總算是殺必死時間 果然cuties很重要 (迷之聲MK2:再講就關到閉鎖空間)水上活動玩了jet ski,knee board,tube,(還有可是拼音不能)共摔下12次  湖邊的人生(迷之聲MK3:你是住了幾年啦)

U.S.A, the country of freedom, is where I spent my exchange student year with tons of experiences. I have been to several countries for study abroad programs, but I have never been away from home for this long.  I was hoping that I can go to a place on the west coast, or the east coast of the U.S. such as LA, NYC, etc. However, I ended up in Syracuse, KS. I still remember the first thought that I had when I saw Kansas on the plane was “What kind of trouble did I get myself into?” And the first thought I had when I knew there are only 16 students in my school was “I am so out of here,” But I told myself that I can’t retreat because the environment doesn’t fit me. I came all the way to the U.S. to experience different environments, so what I should do is to let me fit the environment.

Too much expectation often brings students down when they find out that the situation isn’t like they thought. I could barely bear the disappointment when I found the truth that Syracuse, KS is so small (approximately 1800 people). It was a huge shock for a person that has lived in a big city for 15 years. I eventually overcame the difficulty and discovered good things about small towns. I found out that determination and patience are needed to solve every problem, and they sure helped me through any kind of problem while I was in the U.S.  Life in the U.S. is very exciting for me because there were always new challenges. Every day is a whole new experience and every challenge is different from the previous one. I had many precious and unforgettable experiences during the year.

I concluded what I learned into three major points: First, it is very common for Americans to see foreigners. Because of that, exchange students are nothing special but simply people trying to accomplish their own American Dream. Because of that, I focused on conveying the many positive attributes of Taiwan to a people that might not otherwise learn. Second, selfishness and childishness are not going to do any good. Independence, responsibility and respect are required for a remarkable year. Third, but not least, students need humility and confidence at the same time. Be humble to receive, but be confident to give when exchanging cultures. I hope these valuable techniques will help future exchange students with their year in the U.S.

 Exchange students have the responsibility to bring positive influences into the community. I am proud that I tried my best to learn about the U.S. and to introduce Taiwan. I appreciate AYUSA and I am thankful that I had the chance to be an exchange student. Maybe the processes weren’t smooth, but the fruit of achievement will always be the sweetest.

Home comming
雖然開學是在九月多 但緊接而來得Homecomming又使人體會到美國與台灣的不同
基本上homecomming就是有校友參加返校及一堆每天不同的活動 以下是活動表
第一天:打扮成迪士尼角色
第二天:穿紅色衣物
第三天:花車遊行+晚上趣味競賽
第四天:穿西裝(正式)+臨時演出
第五天:晚上舞會

就從第一天開始 迪士尼角色?基本上本人是沒再玩cos的不過學校硬要你當coser也是不可抗力(為啥一定要是Disney,難得想推廣正統cos界的) 沒辦法由於某種關係(被人施了Nausido’Iza,eiwa-zu,Hagara.yuru’.Beogu, Ni-Do.is,’arruji-zu-Berukana’Man,lagu 記憶消除)所以我完全沒有準備.到了早上看到轟弟才想到要穿奇怪的服裝.沒辦法只好隨便抓幾件衣服及配件弄出了海盜(中西混合)+日本武士刀+鉤子手=???(連我都不知道) 反正Freestytle

第二天 有借於之前的情況 要好好準備所以扮成消防員應該就沒差了吧(之後略)

第三天 遊行…一個年級只有一個班 每班都要做花車…製做過程:基本上這使我有一點對美國人反感,來的人不到全班四分之一就算了居然1.沒人工作2.沒人帶材料3.連場地都要先自己打掃(滿地糞),沒辦法總不能就這樣給他擺爛,只好自己做(無奈T-T)所以…天才還是要助手的.
第四天 西裝日 顧名思義穿西裝打領帶 臨演..到上台前10分鐘才知道還好本人優秀 基本上就先小定內容後上台自己演.

最後一天 舞會 還好之前在英國有類似經驗基本上還是會跳得 不過還是超累(趴)

總而言之Homecomming還算是蠻有趣的(雖然有點累)

This is a pretty cool experience. I have lived in United State before, but not with a hostfamily. I have a host father —–Henry. He is a cool guy. He’s very different compare to the host family I’ve heard before. He tries to treat us like friends. We always say he is 70 outside but 17 in mind. I’m his seventh exchange. But the first Asian. He helped me with a lot of stuff. I also have a host brother—-Dominik. He was the 4^th exchange of Henry. We do a lot of crazy stuff together    ha-ha. The first week I got here. Henry took me and Kuba(who’s also a exchange of Henry and Dominik’s related brother. He went back after a month later.) to a beach for vocation. We went to a restaurant in the hotel for dinner. When we went in the restaurant we found out something was wrong. Cuz everybody else was wearing extremely formal. But we were wearing a swimming pants and T-shirt. After the excellent dinner we found out why. The Bill was 130$!!!!!!!! Hahaha!! Henry almost got a heart attack. We left a HUGE tip. After that dinner Kuba and I almost laughed off our ass!!!!!

The school part is totally different compare to the school in Taiwan. Right here the school starts at 8:10 and ends at 3:10 when I told my friends the school hours in Taiwan. They all looks surprised. They couldn’t believe we have to go to  school that long each day. The teachers all treat me pretty nice!!!!(I learn from this first you gotta act like you speak English poorly so the teachers will try their best to help you out) There is a lot of crazy stuff going on in school you just gotta experienced by yourself cuz there are too much to tell at once!!!

  In United State, the holidays are FUN! FUN! FUN! Halloweens! Christmas! Plus we’ll have a lot of days off because of those holidays (that’s why it’s fun!!)    We even celebrate chinese new year!!!!! Actually I think most of the exchanges will be frustrated  at the first several weeks. But it’s gonna be fine!!  JUST CHILL AND ENJOY IT!     

今天學校放假一天，
說是總統節。
我閒閒沒是在家晃，
突然接到另一個的國交換學生,
Giana媽媽的電話，
說他家有一個ladies party,
問我有沒有興趣去做一個有關自己國家的簡介。真是個好機會出去放風。在電話中他提到約有10餘人，
是一個小聚會。我套上半身旗袍，
下搭牛仔褲，
雖是非常不正式。

But our ’shining’ traditional top already out shone the little black spot.There were three of the exchange students doing our performance.
Crisi and Giana went first,they introduce their country, Germany to others.
Then, it was my turn.
I did the powerpoint that I did it twice before.
Speaking to the crowed, not a big deal for me.

 I think the got some of my main points,
1. Taiwan is an independence country
2. The misunderstanding of Taiwan and Thailand.
