The pace of the new year is getting closer and closer, and the festive and peaceful atmosphere is filled in the air. The new year is full of our expectations and hopes, and it is slowly opening. On this festive season, many China students studying abroad are still overseas due to their academic arrangements, and many foreign students in China will spend New Year’s Day in China in 2024. At this special moment, they sent their most sincere wishes to readers and friends through Yangcheng Evening News.
In the past 2023, many international students set foot on the overseas study trip for the first time, and they groped and grew up alone with a strong homesickness. "I embarked on the journey of studying abroad for the first time, far away from my family, and my homesickness flooded into my heart. In the dead of night, my thoughts about my family and friends often appeared in my dreams, but I was not knocked down by strong thoughts and the pressure of life. On the contrary, I began to write poems, express my true feelings in words, and tell every mood." Meng Yuchen, who is now studying comparative literature at the University of Edinburgh in the UK, said. "This year, I saw a bigger and farther world. I have experienced the customs of different cultures and the perspectives of subject learning under different teaching modes. Living away from my family and friends has also taught me to be alone with myself and honed my life ability, "shared Ying Yi, who is now studying statistics, economics and finance at University of London.
There are also some international students who spent a rich and fulfilling year in 2023 in China. Zhang Hao, a Bangladeshi business Chinese major at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, shared: "I had a very full life in 2023, and I took part in many activities. Among them, there is a computer design competition for college students in China and a sports meeting in the sports center. I also went to Chongqing on behalf of our school. " "In the past year, in the dormitory and in the classroom, I have made many friends from all over the world and met many students from China. At the same time, in Guangzhou, a city full of fireworks, we also walked around and saw a lot. Now we have seen a lot, then we ate a lot and played a lot of new things. " Chen Ziyang, from Malaysia and now studying in the history department of Sun Yat-sen University, said.
In the days of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, many international students also expect that they can achieve better themselves in China in the future. Fang Yijia, who is from Malaysia and now studying in the Chinese Department of Sun Yat-sen University, said: "In the new year, if there is enough time, I hope to visit more other places in China in the future, such as the Forbidden City in Beijing, the West Lake in Hangzhou, the watchtower in Jiangmen, etc. I want to know more about the customs of these places, and I hope that I can continue to gain more knowledge, continue to make progress and become better during my study trip at CUHK." Feng Yinyu, from Venezuela and now studying business Chinese at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, shared: "In 2024, I look forward to continuing to learn and grow in a multicultural environment. Make greater progress in personal growth and academics, and make better plans for your future career! "
The bell of the new year is about to ring, and students at home and abroad have sent their most sincere wishes to the motherland and the readers of Yangcheng Evening News. Zhang Hao blessed: "I wish you good health, all the best and a bright future!" Meng Yuchen sent a wish: "I sincerely wish the motherland better and better and prosperous! May our country be brilliant in its development! The country is safe and the people are happy! May the mountains and rivers of the motherland be more beautiful and the heritage of civilization become more profound. " "I wish all those who are still working hard for their goals can get what they want and do it smoothly!" Fang Yijia blessed.
The gongs and drums on New Year’s Day are about to ring, and warm wishes have been delivered. On this occasion, I also wish students at home and abroad a happy New Year’s Day, a healthy family and successful studies!
