Oh I just can not believe it is almost the end of this year's ambassador event. I have learnt so much from all the meetings, so as my English. And on 11th of June, all the ambassadors met up at the 2 more London Riverside Building , talked to visitors from all over the world, about the student collage life in London. I arrived there earlier for helping arranging the reception and meeting room, and the harp at the corner will be played in the meeting took all my attention.   Although I have not played harps before, the knowledge from piano helped me quickly sort out simple songs from the harp. Another two ambassadors worked together with me to arrange the reception, making sure all visitors coming in will have a certificate. Really stressful! Very surprisingly, although I have not prepared what to say at all, any detail about my lovely days in my Royal Veterinary Collage and London just came out automatically from my mouth, or, my heart. I can't stop telling vis

I would better warn everyone first, if you are tourists, waiting for boarding and taking pictures by the same time, be careful about these guys dressed up fancily, they will force you to take pictures with them and charge you at least one pound per person. Really bad. Luckily my very nice Indian friend Sabee, paid for helpless me. Then forget about unpleasant things, get life jacket on, after the safety introduction from coaches, we got onto the Thames Jet , which is a fast yacht. Slow sightseeing is taken first alongside the river, of the London Eye, the Elizabeth Bell and the Palace of Westminster.  After off the busy area, the yacht started to speed up amazingly, get very bouncy and it looks like we are jumping in the river all the time. Very exciting and satisfying. The best thing I enjoyed the most being an ambassador in LUIP is making so many friend from everywhere all over the world.

Surprisingly, a Chinese with very few Chinese friends but a lot of British friends. " Jiayue, you know," said my manager," you are really different from other Chinese,you are too easygoing and too native now." Yes, that's me. I have been to UK for only 2 years and half, but I think myself getting along with local people in a 'China developing rate'. If you are fresher coming to UK, you probably find people here are a bit 'too polite and somehow cold'. However, that is absolutely not the real case. Most of them are extremely easy going and kind, but you do need some tips to make sure getting along well with them. I am now sharing my tips and experience with you, hopefully you will find them useful. Tip one: free yourself from your little prison!  So many international students lock themselves inside their rooms, watching tele, eat in ,only go out occasionally with people from their own country... Stop doing that please! You have to j

We have had an amazing day yesterday on the top floor of Fortnum and Mason, the oldest department store of UK.  The head quarters is located at 181 Piccadilly, where as it was established in 1707 by William Fortnum and Hugh Mason. It is recognised internationally for its high quality goods as an iconic British symbol(Wikipedia). The main focus of the store is variety of exotics. Large but amazing indoor changing has been made since year 2004. It look now completely different indoors. Spiral stairs run though the atrium of the store, making customers easily recognise how many floors they have, and the amazing but unique goods on each floors. Sitting with being suprised, I started looking around. Everything look rally British and traditional: the velvet curtains, the hand made carpet, china tableware arranged in traditional order. The services are extremely experienced and behave just like the way being done traditionally. I have to remind me several times to sp

Before coming to study in London, I have read a lot of magazines,watched quite a few programs about street styles. And I really admire the models who are pictured in modern cities. However, after coming to London, I found out you can basically take pictures of street style everywhere here in any season! It doesn't matter where you are in London, the backgrounds will never let you down. Isn't that awesome? Make yourself a street model this time! Don't forget to dress up every time you are out!
