Unlike what I went through in Dallas, the first week in England was totally a blast. The weather was extremely good, sunshine, blue sky, and cool breeze. Interestingly, the air reminded me of all those old days in Swiss, France, and Norway.
I took a walk down the street and along the seafront, encountering many pleasant people. Luckily I was able to locate a place for studies. Positive thinking and strong desire truly played a critical role in finding my new home.
Flipping through several pages in Cognitive Linguistics, I realized it wasn’t that difficult to digest the information at all. That was a good sign.
Some people have mentioned the book “The Secret” a few times to me; and I saw it at Eslite in Taipei. The point is I had learned the essence of the book many years ago. So, I told myself : yes, I want a happy life and I will get it eventually.
Riding the bus to Falmer only took about 30 minutes, which isn’t too bad. I always enjoy riding the bus. The campus is not pretty compared to the U of Utah, but well, I’m not here for a beautiful campus.
I guess this is another Moon Festival I have to spend overseas, not that I feel sad or what, it is just making me wonder where time has gone to.
There are still lots of things I need to adjust in this country, I’m afraid. But I will get by fine. Patience is what I need the most, and I always know that!
