感谢学校给我提供了如此难得的机会赴印度尼西亚建国大学交流学习，我非常庆幸自己能拥有如此美妙的学习和生活经历。

I appreciate the university for offering me such a precious opportunity to exchange and study at the Founding University of Indonesia. I am very glad to have such a wonderful experience.

建国大学是印度尼西亚首屈一指的大学，拥有悠久的历史和很高的声誉，学校一共有五个校区，我的校区属于国际校区，距离住的宿舍比较远，需要三十分钟的车程，每天上学都有校车接送。我一共选择了四门专业课，时尚纺织课、时尚潮流预测、设计和材料、艺术与设计创业研究，另外我们在周五的上午和下午还有两节英语课。学生们可以再单独加课，选择一对一辅导，当然价格是free的，我在自己没有课的时间都打勾了，老师根据自己的时间来跟你约课。我正在备考雅思，这对于要考六分的我来说简直就是一个福音，对这个学校也是爱的不行。

The Founding University of Indonesia is the leading university in Indonesia. It is a university with a long history and high reputation. There are five campuses in the university. My campus belongs to the international campus, which is far from my dormitory. It takes 30 minutes to drive to and from school every day. I have chosen four major courses- Fashion Textiles, Fashion Trend Prediction, Design and Materials, Art and Design Entrepreneurship Research. In addition, we have two English classes on Friday morning and afternoon. Students can take extra classes and choose one-to-one tutoring. Of course, the price is free. I ticked the time when I didn’t have classes. Teachers make appointments with students according to their own time. I’m preparing for IELTS exam, and achieving six scores.

饮食方面我至今还很不习惯，印尼是一个非常喜欢吃糖的国家，炒饭炒菜都要放很多糖，可能这也是这个国家幸福指数超级高的原因吧。在出行方面，我都是在一个grab的软件上打车，初到印尼的时候简直要被印尼的交通吓死，印尼的大多数出行工具是摩托车，速度非常快，常常感觉是要与轿车相撞，但又没有撞上，不得不夸赞印尼人的车技厉害。印尼有很多的街边小吃，味道非常好，也有很多的商场，雅加达简直就是商城的聚集地。在这里不论是去到哪里跟谁打交道都是用的英文，虽然这里的人普遍讲印尼语，但是他们的英文也能切换自如。这里的人友好、热情、喜欢聊天，这里的风景也超级美，毕竟是岛屿最多的国家，印尼真的是一个十分值得来的国家。

I’m still not used to the diet. Indonesia is a very sugar-loving country. There is a lot of sugar in fried rice and vegetables. Maybe that’s why the happiness index of this country is so high. In terms of travel, I take a taxi on an APP. When I first arrived in Indonesia, I was scared to death by Indonesian traffic. Most of the transport vehicles in Indonesia are motorcycles, which are very fast. I often feel like I tend to collide with cars, but I didn’t collide with them. I have to praise Indonesians’ excellent driving skills. There are many street snacks in Indonesia. They are very delicious. There are also many shopping malls. Jakarta is the gathering place of shopping malls. Wherever you go, who you are talking to here is in English. Although Indonesian is widely spoken here, their English can also be switched freely. The people here are friendly, enthusiastic and chat-loving. The scenery here is super beautiful. After all, Indonesia is the country with the largest number of islands. Indonesia is really a very worthwhile country.
