New Year's Resolution

The New Year, 2011, has been here for almost one month. At the beginning of New Years, I always do two things as following.

The first one is that I find a website of constellation. I am interested in constellation, so I usually search prediction of my astrological sign at the beginning of the year. I want to know which aspects I should pay attention in the New Year.

The second one is that I think about my resolution of the New Year and write it on my notebook. Then, I will check it at the end of the New Year for understanding which parts I have already got, and which parts I have not.

This is my plans in this year:
1)       Both my husband and I can keep healthy this year, so we will do more exercises on weekends. We are in the strange country. If we are sick, nobody will take care of us. Moreover, keeping healthy, I will have enough energy to finish other plans.
2)       I have to study hard, improve my English as soon as possible in order to pass the TOEFL and go to the CSUF.
3)       I want to enhance my cooking. My husband always laughs at me and says I have no talent to cook. For this reason, I want to beat him.
4)       My mum and my mum in law will come here and visit us this year. I will arrange a good travel plan for them and let them spend happy time in the U.S.
I hope all of us can reach our goals in 2011. By the way, the Spring Festival is coming-----Happy New Year.

Introduction

Hey everyone, here is Penghui Xu. My American friend said my name sounds like "Penguin"... so I'd like you to call me Sophia. Actually, my Chinese name has the similar meaning with my English name. I am glad to know you guys and become classmates each other. My major is computer science. Although I am not good at computer, it is more popular and easier to find a better job. That is one of reasons why I choose my major. I like to go shopping, listen to the music, travelling and make friends. I am also interested in culture of other countries. I hope that we will have a lot of fun in our class and improve our English as quickly as we can.
