Hello, dear teacher and classmates. My name is Peggy. I am a sophomore in the Department of Foreign Language Literature. I am from Chung Li, Taoyuan, which is a very cute city. And I graduated from Chung Li High School, a very beautiful campus with friendly teachers and students. There are four people in my family- father, mother, sister, and me. My father is working in architect industry; my mother is a public official, and my sister works as an assistant in a tech-company. I have a great and lovely family. We live happily, and we love each other so much.
I am an optimistic person, not only kind but also outgoing. I like to make friends with others. To be friends with different people, I can learn different things from them. Each people have their own personality, thought, interests, and so on, so it is really fun when you deal with friends. I’d learned things such as playing the piano, drawing, and calligraphy when I was young. However, I’ve quit them all no long after. So, there’s nothing I’m really good at now.
I am very enthusiastic in sports. I concern about many kinds of sport games, baseball and basketball especially. Besides watching ball games on TV, I enjoy going to the live game. I think sports have some special element that is just so attractive. I always have a great time when watching or learning sport games. So that is the thing I will do when I’m not in a good mood. And I like to play it when I have chance either.
I’m happy to be in the Department of Foreign Language Literature of NCHU. I am interested in English since I was young, so it has always be my goal to get into this department. In these four years, I hope I can efficiently improve my English ability in all aspects. Moreover, I hope I can learn at least one second language. It is not an easy job to study in this department. Hard work and perseverance is necessarily required. Therefore, I will try my best to learn more and act better. And it’s also important to work with others in the class, so hope we can all cooperate with each other pleasantly, and enjoy our classes happily together. It is really nice to meet everyone, hope we all have a great time in this department.
Peggy: It's exciting when you said you're from Chungli. I actually spent six years up there, doing my undergrad, pre-service teacher training and a year of practice teacher. I still remember the featured night market, with lots of food stands and delicious snacks (e.g., waffles, corn dog, stinky tofu, fruit juice, oyster omelets) like a carnival. It's great that you shared those happy memories together with your family.

Your personality definitely makes you an efficient learner. You can recultivate those "former" talents when you practice them again. Not a problem at all! In addition to recreation, a good habit of sports helps you maintain both physical and mental health. According to scientists, people who play sports have a more positive body image than those who don't. Playing sports often involves physical activities like running, jumping and stretching and moreover a constructive expenditure of energy. You know, providing the body with a complete exercise will strengthen the bones and muscles and tone the body as well. Passion for sports is a blessing, isn't it?

I hope you enjoy the learning of foreign languages and find out ways that balance your interests and future career development. As Kelly Fordyce claimed, "Language is a wonderful thing. It can be used to express thoughts, to conceal thoughts, but more often, to replace thinking." You will experience the power of language through the different use in contexts. Just keep the ball rolling! I wish you make wise and altruistic decisions in every step of life.
