Jiawei's Story

Hi everyone, my name is Jiawei Zhu, i come from China, Chang zhou, Jiang su province which is the neighbor of Shanghai. My parents' jobs are both related to economy, my father runs his own factory and my mother is a financial accounting.

However, i will choose environmental science as my major in the OSU, as i think people now are paying to much attention on how to earn money while they often neglect the current situation of environmental surroundings. Money can't pay back us an original forest, can't save the polluted water. I believe if a rich man living in a terrible environment, he couldn't get his life quality get really improved. Also, the significance of protecting environment is easy to see from the case of crude oil spilling out in Mexican Gulf in 2010.

It's my first time to come to the USA, the environment here is very different from my hometown. Besides the background of culture, the structure of city construction is totally distinct. In china, it is very common to see there is a factory near the people's house while in the columbus, i just saw many houses, grasslands and many public facilities. So the pollution is rather less than that in China. Now, i can have a chance to study environmental science, i hope i can learn some advanced technologies to help my hometown out of environmental troubles.

Personally, i have many interests, like swimming, playing computer games, eating and traveling. I have been to Beijing this may, it is the capital of China. In Beijing, i had a lot of fun with my family. I visited many famous plays of interests such as the Great Wall, Summer Palace and Zijing City. Also, the delicious Beijing roasted duck left me a deep impression. The above picture you see is the situation that i was enjoying the nice traditional chinese dishes, including Beijing roasted duck, aha.

If you have the same interests with me, i'd love to share with you and even we can do it together in the following days. Nice to be friend with.
