I am a sophomore in the School of Overseas Cooperation of Shanghai International Studies University, and I am going to study at Waikato University in New Zealand. When I was in high school, I didn't have the idea of studying abroad, but by chance, my parents saw the information of Shanghai International Studies University's Overseas Cooperation College on the Internet and came up with a plan to let me study abroad. After fully understanding the enrollment requirements of Waikato University in Shanghai, New Zealand, I took the college entrance examination and received the admission notice of the New Zealand project that summer, becoming a freshman in the Shanghai-New Zealand project.

During my two years in Shanghai, I had the happiest time of my life. At first, I thought my ability would be familiar with my studies. In fact, counselors and teachers are still very nervous. Freshmen have evening self-study every night, and foreign teachers' English classes make everyone dare not slack off. When I was a sophomore, my study tasks were much heavier than when I was a freshman, and sometimes I did my homework very late, but I still felt very fulfilled in my heart. Amateur study, except in the classroom, is to look up information in the library or study quietly. The learning atmosphere is very strong, which is several times more efficient than in the dormitory. When I encounter difficulties, I will send emails to foreign teachers, and they will reply in time and provide me with a lot of help. As time goes by, I only have two short months left to study and live in Shanghai. Facing the greater challenges that may come soon after entering New Zealand, I hope to continue to overcome difficulties and forge ahead with my dreams.
