這裡有我一位非常非常重要的朋友
My face was long, but I looked forward to this trip, to the Illinois State, where one of my very important friends is.
工作幾年了，其實我都把ETA們當成一年的朋友，因為誰會記得你呢？再加上他回去後都有自己的規畫，久而久之，他們在台灣的記憶早就忘了，誰是Kelly Lin呢？
Being on my previous work position for several years, I treated ETAs as one-year friends. To be serious, who can possibly still remember you after they return to USA? Plus, they may remember you for a while, but they probably can not even remember who Kelly Lin in after being busy at their studies or works.
不說這了，來說說我的好友拜訪之旅與芝加哥之行吧。
Anyway, let's get back to the visit to my good friend and Chicago.
人在機場等你的感覺真好，看到葛柏帥氣地出現，我真的超級高興的，上車看著他開著車很難想像他在台灣騎著機車的樣子，之前在紐約的那種緊張、害怕的感覺在看到他之後很快的就不見了。他的家人更是準備了一間超漂亮的房間和一張貼心的卡片外加一份禮物，我整個人的心裡真的是甜甜的。
It was so nice that someone was waiting for you at the airport. I
was super happy when Parker showed up in his cool way. Sitting in his car and
watching him driving was a new picture to me. What I could picture still was
that he was riding his scooter while he was in Taiwan. The feelings of nervousness
and worry during the visit in NYC were disappeared soon. His family prepared me
a pretty room, a sweet card and a present, and that makes my heart full of
sweetness and warmness.
休息了一會， 葛柏帶我出去吃飯，不記得餐廳了，但葛柏仔細地為我說明食物和點餐真的讓我很感動，我們倆很快樂地用中文聊天，回到家後，在紐約那一整個星期的疲累讓我整個人躺在床上不想動，我好高興我能夠來這裡，謝謝您們！葛柏, Kevin 和Cindy
Setting down a while, Parker took me out for dinner. I could not
remember where we went, but I remembered I was touched and thankful that Parker
explained how to order and what ingredients were displaying. We talked happily
in English and some Chinese. In Parker’s home, lying in the bed, I was so tired
from the whole week of learning, adjusting, frustration and anxiety. I was so
happy that I could be able to make it here. Thank you very much, Parker, Kevin,
and Cindy for your warmth.
