I-Chun's Practice Blog

Hello Everyone,
My name is I-Chun Findley and I am one of the many returning freshmen. Being away from school for eighteen years, I was very nervous about this new journey. My weakness is my English academic writing so I thought this class, English 100, is going to be the "turning point" for me to overcome my fear! English is a beautiful language but has been a hard one to learn. I know I have a lot of work to do with the 12 credits I am taking this quarter. This is a great start as my goal is to become a Certified Massage Therapist by the end of 2012. After getting through the fist week of school, I finally feel more comfortable about my surroundings.
I was born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan, moved to United State in 1994. I must be one of the most fortunate people in the world to have a loving husband, wonderful daughter, incredible parents and sisters fully support almost all of my decisions. My daughter is 9 years-old who is a competitive figure skater. I am so proud of her and pleased to see her accomplishment in such a young age.
I worked night shift at Haggen for the past twelve years until this January, during the day I tutored Chinese or volunteered at my daughter's school. After experiencing some symptoms of "sleep deficiency", I thought it's time to think outside of the box and really make some career changing decisions. So here I am! More ready than ever, starting a new chapter of my life!
