About Me

My name is Edith Chan. I am a designer and illustrator based in Seattle, USA. I love dreaming, writing and drawing. Pencils and paint brushes are my magical wands giving my imaginations form. I was born and brought up in Macao, the first and the last European colony in China. Living in Macau gave me the opportunity to explore western and eastern arts. I have spent most of my life in this little city, until 2007 I moved to the United States and started this blog to document my adventure in America. You don’t have to be a Blogger or Google member to leave comments. Please take a moment to let me know you were here. Thank you and have a beautiful day!

華盛頓大學 Day 1 -我的魔法學校

星期一天還未亮,我一早起床搭巴士。這裡的秋天巳經好像澳門的冬天一樣冷,我穿著一件粉紫色的羽絨,看上去好像一個吹脹了的氣球,我拿起包包,雀躍地大步大步走向巴士總站。 這天,是我第一次在美國搭巴士。而這輛巴士,正要帶我到著名的華盛頓大學。 華盛頓大學(University of Washington)是一所歷史悠久而充滿古典氣息的大學。古堡、雕拱、噴泉、花園......好像走進了哈利波特的魔法學校,我相信大家也會愛上這個校園。

第一天上午我跟Jenny到Denny Hall上莎士比亞文學課,這裡上課方式跟中國的没有兩樣,唯一最大的分別是這裡很多的學生都不是直接從中學考上大學的。聽說美國很多的學生,在中學畢業後都會先出社會工作吸收經驗,然後才決家是否繼續讀大學和修讀什麼科目。這樣,學生能親身體驗社會實際環境,再衡量理想與市場供求,繼而選擇最適合自己的路。這種方式有一定的好處,但未必可以在澳門實行,因為澳門巳經不平衡地向賭場業全面倒了。 這堂課我没有學到一篇莎士比亞的文章,但是我體驗到美國的大學生是怎樣上課的。開心的是,發現自己也可以應付美國老師的說話速度。 下課後我隨意散步,走到Drumbeller Fountain,這坐在噴泉旁邊的一張石椅上,鴨仔走到我身邊盯着我腳邊的麵包碎,我閉起眼睛深深一下陽光的温暖。一切都很不實在,因為華盛頓大學對我來說,跟哈利波特的魔法學校一樣,是如此遙不可及。
