――――――Yang Zheng, 07 grade, HND program of the International College 

Experienced happy childhood,

Been through the ignorance,

Bid farewell to the fantasy,

Memorize the past,

When I started chasing my dreams,

I am on the way to success.

--Preface

Life seems to be long, but youth is short. I dream of stepping on the cornerstone of youth to have a good view. On the other side, success is waving to me thus I rush to the success of the bumpy way without hesitation. your dream ever set off?

My dream has already set out. On the road, perhaps there will be plenty of beautiful sights along the way, but you cannot stay for a while, because I am in a hurry; you may encounter storms, but you must resist, because I am in a hurry. To be successful and to make my dream come true, I tell myself - You're on the way to success. The road to success will not be plain sailing, but every step should go at ease.

The Xiamen University is the first stop of my dream. I feel like I am chasing my dream when I am every time walking in the beautiful campus, unremitting self-improvement, strive for perfection motto also inspired me to climb the peak of knowledge, step by step, to capture the dream, to hunt for success. The moment I stepped into the International College, the dream began to take root in here.

In the morning, I opened the door and was bathed in warm sunshine and let it touch my cheek; in the evening, I rode a bicycle feeling a pleasant breeze and let it blow my hair line. The warm embrace of this knowledge hall give me a sense of happiness and stability. I have a strong faith in my dream.

Such an international education platform builds up an invisible bridge for me to realize the dream of studying abroad in the future. Most of the teachers are highly educated in foreign countries. In the class, they are so talented and deliver the knowledge in a perfect way. I was totally blown away.

In the study of SQA HND project in the International College, I was involved in the English learning atmosphere and gradually increase my English and professional skills. The college provides great opportunities to help me adapt to the study life in foreign university as soon as possible.
