hello

Hi,

My name is Shen-Ho Yang, but Ron is fine with me too. A little about myself, I was born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan but went to the states for high school and college. I am majoring in Agricultural Consumer Economics with concentration in Agricultural-Finance at UIUC.

The reason I want to attend this program is because I don’t have the opportunity to go to many different places in Taiwan, which I think is kind of sad. However, this program at NTU provides me the chance to travel around some parts of Taiwan while earning credits at a low cost. Then, I am here in NTU with other people and ready to enjoy the program.

The only sports I play are tennis and baseball/softball. I used to be on my high school’s tennis team but I haven’t played it for almost 3 years, so I am like a rookie now. I start to play softball with my friends at UIUC during weekends since freshmen year and I still have quite a lot to learn both offensively and defensively.

If you have any more questions about me, I will be happy to answer them. I am also looking for people to play tennis, or throw some balls. If time is allow, maybe we can go to Taroko batting cage as well.

------------------------
We went to lots of places in Taipei like the CKS memorial hall, Taipei main station, Taiwan Museum, traditional markets etc… in the past few days. Even though I had been to those places long ago, it is still nice to walk around again. The lectures about Taiwan are great and just like the review sections for me. I like the lecture about cetaceans because I don’t know much about them prior to the lecture. The videos about dolphins at the end of that lecture were interesting too.
