不用說明為什麼是USA,因為我人現在就在美國啊!
那為什麼是Xiuwen呢?也不用說明,因為Xiuwen是我的名字啊!
那到底是為什麼還要特別寫一篇文章說明這個blog的名字呢?
Without any explanation, it is easy to understand what part of the title is USA, because I am currently in USA.Then, why uses " Xiuwen"? It doesn't need to explain, either because Xiuwen is my name.
So why exactly do I want to write an introdution to explain this blog is named Xiuwen in USA?
大部份的人和朋友們都叫我Kelly,只有家人或是少數幾個好友會叫我Xiuwen,說實在的,Kelly Lin這個名字在宜蘭比較有名,而不是Xiuwen。
Most of my friends or people I am not really know them call me Kelly. Only a few friends and family call me Xiuwen. To be honest, the name of Kelly Lin is more popular than the name of Xiuwen in Yilan or Taiwan.
來到美國,這裡的人叫我Xiuwen,大部份的人剛開始都唸不太好,但我聽我supervisor的建議,我來這裡教中文,所以讓他們說我的中文名,可以讓他們練習一下,也顯示一下我台灣人(中國人)特別的身份。
Coming to USA, people here call me Xiuwen. Most of them couldn't pronouce my name well. However, I took my supervisor's advice that to have people call me my Chinese name in order to practice Chinese and show me I am a Taiwanese (Chinese) which means I am special. ^_^
但是人真是個矛盾的動物,我很懷念朋友叫我Kelly的日子,大概是會讓我想起台灣吧,感覺在這裡叫Xiuwen對我很陌生,好像Xiuwen不是我的名字,但是事實卻是我的真名。
However, human beings are a kind of animal with a contraditory way in thinking. I really miss the days when people call me Kelly. It reminds me of time in Taiwan. I feel awkward and strange when they call me Xiuwen and I feel like it is not my name which is really my name.
所以,我在美國叫Xiuwen喔!在這個blog,你能看到我用Xiuwen的角度看美國這個國家的人和文化,當然還有Xiuwen在這裡的生活和瑣事!什麼是Xiuwen的角度?那就是一在台灣住很久的台灣人來到美國後,(哈!!不告訴你住在台灣多久),以一個充滿好奇心和愛做夢的陌生人角度,體驗這個的世界和文化。
敬請期待!!
So, dear friends, I am called Xiuwen in USA. In this blog, you will see my life and America' people and culture in Xiuwen's perspective. Wait! What is Xiuwen's perspective? It will be a stranger from Taiwan who had been lived there for long enough. Haha.. I don't want to tell you my age. Anyway, Xiuwen is a Taiwanese and a stranger in USA with lots of curiosity and day dreams.
Please look forward to my blog!!
