Last year was an eventful year for me, I'm going to devote this post to reflect on major events that happened to me this year. Let's begin.
First off, I was accepted to Chinese Flagship Capstone year, that why I'm here in China now. I'm actually about to finish the first portion in about a week, just have some loose ends to tie up now. I've made a lot new friends during my stay in China, people who have made a big impact in my life. I'm a bit sad that I might not see them again until Las Vegas! (Haha, a little inside joke). It was honestly an accident of how I met them. I half-heartedly applied to be in a club and had a horrible interview, but somehow I managed to get picked. A very happy accident that turned out to be :).
I guess the second biggest thing that happened was starting a bucket list and actually going through with it. I ran a marathon, bungie jumped, ate some delicious food. There are still so much more I want to do, I wonder how much more of my bucket list I can scratch off before this year ends. I'm going to Yunnan on the 13th, so there's another thing I can cross that off. (Oh, also I got back in shape and lost some weight and kept it off. haha)
I would say that I may not be the brightest student at Kelley, but I can say that I've seen more of the world than most students at any university. I've seen more this past 4 months than I have seen in the past 4 years. I'm very fortunate to have this year to travel and learn from seeing and doing. You can only learn so much from textbooks. I only hope that I can see more of the world in this new year.
I wish everyone a safe and healthy new year.
Until next time,
MC
