1.16 Monday Chiangmai
Today, I visited the CMIS----the best school in Chiangmai. They said this school is very hard to enter, especially for Chinese. People come in with hope and come out with disappointment. I begin to feel nervous even though I knew I was just visiting it.
The school looks beautiful. Green trees reach up to the sky, gray and white doves wandering about, children running past us. The buildings are not as tall and clean as in China, but it was nice and peaceful.
In the antechamber we met Sarah, a kind ethnic Chinese. She lead us around the school. I saw many students. Some are having English class, some are having history class, some are having musical class, some are having PE class.......I saw them playing football. They kicked the ball swiftly though the field, calling to their friends.
We talked to some 9th grade students. They are all friendly and they looks healthy and happy. When Sarah told them I may come and study here, a boy held up his hands and said that I will love this great school.
Their classrooms are different from my school. Instead of teachers moving from class to class, students walk to classes to learn. Teachers just stay in a regular classroom and wait for students to come for class.
I also saw the library. There are a lot of books, <<Star War>>, <<Harry Porter>> and many other ones. Most students read and study on computers. I listen to their class, the teacher seems to interact with there students very well. They all looked interested. The class seems very hard to understand, but fun.
I don’t think I am good enough to enter this school yet. I planned to read more, write more, and talk more. The CMIS is my objective.
