Something about Me

My name is Yujie Feng. I am from Tianjin, China. If you don’t know where that is, go find a map of China, and you will see it near Beijing. I am a freshman in the Ohio State University. Right now I am only a pre-business student, but I will work hard to get into the specialization I want to study, Finance.

I enjoy reading novels, especially fantasies, when I have free time. I like adventures, and I always put myself in the stories to experience the life of the characters. When I got inspired, I would write some stories of my own. I have also written some poems and lyrics, but I never showed them to anybody. My mom always says that I put too much effort into unimportant things. She believes that the most important thing in the world for me to do is to get good grades in school. However, I strongly disagree with her. I think the most important thing is to enjoy my life.

For sports, I like swimming and playing badminton. The reason I like these two sports is that they are the only sports that I am good at. I learnt to swim when I was in second grade, and learnt to play badminton in third grade. I have spent a great deal of time on these two sports. During most of the holidays or breaks, my dad would take me to the pool or to the court to practice. I also learnt to play tennis in eleventh grade. But I always applied my badminton skills when I was playing tennis, the coach had to correct me every time.

    My mother is the same way. She's always making a huge deal out of my grades and is only happy when I get an A+. I completely agree with you that the most important thing is to enjoy life!

    I agree with the fact that it is most important to enjoy life, however i also agree that getting good grades is important. It's good to have a balance between the two (:

    Parents always think that studying is more important than enjoying life. I thingk we will know how important study is untill we get parents' age.

    I think that if you spend a lot of time on something it must be important to you, and that's all that matters!

    Good luck this quarter, I know it must be difficult getting good grades as an international student. I have a hard enough time and I have lived here my whole life. Don't be too hard on yourself. :)
