About me

    Hi, my name is Ling Wang. I come from China. I will be very happy if you call me Julia.
I have been to America last year for an half-year internship, which encourages me to go to American for further studying. I'm in ALP now. After I finish ALP classes, I would like to apply for MBA programs in CSUF or other universities.
    Actually, before I went to America, I received two offers, one is from Oregon where I did the internship and the other is from CSUF. I struggled about choosing between these two places for a long time. Because Oregon is the place I'm familiar with and I still have a lot of friends there, on the other hand Los Angles is a developed city in the worldwide which is famous for sunshine, beach, hot girls and Hollywood. I have seen a lot of pictures of LA on magzines and TV in my childhood and always dream that one day I can visit there. So I realize that LA should be my best choice.
    However, I feel a little disappointed after I arrive here. The sunshine is too much. I have to use 75+ suncream everyday which is very oily and makes me uncomfortable. Beach in LA is beautiful. I like swimming very much. But when I went to the Hutington beach, I found that the sea is too cold to swim. And also I visied the Hollywood at the first night I arrived in LA. To my surprise, the Hollywood Walk of Fame is not as imposing as I imagined and the theatre is not as romantic as I expected.
    During this one month, I start to get accustomed to the study and life here. I hope that I can make more friends and develop my English significantly in ALP program.

  1. I hope you start to like things better soon! I'm sorry it's been so hot! I love fall and winter in Southern California. As for L.A., my favorite places are Santa Monica and the Getty Museum. Thanks for posting!
