Jin Rui from Dalian, China -2014 admission

It’s been 4 months since I get to Kyoto and it is already the end of the first semester. This 4-month study has become a real great experience for me. I had lived in Japan 4 years when I was a kid and it was the best time of my life. However, this time gives me a new feeling about Japan. This is the new experience of the university students’ life in Japan.

The 1st month was about the school clubs and circles. Everyone was so enthusiastic and excited: freshman would be confused about which club or circle should they choose, and students from higher grades would try their best to persuade freshmen to join them. I joined the hip-hop dancing circle and it was a great experience. Everyone was really kind to me and polite to me, just like all the Japanese do.

Not only about the after-school activities, Japanese students were really hard working during the lessons and also after school. They were hard working on study, and also do part time jobs after school. Their hard working motivates me and makes me work harder and pay attention to every single lecture.

After all, these 4 months were really colorful and enjoyable for me. I think I’m ready to say that I’m very excited that I can stay 4 more years in this university and enjoy more and more colorful experience that is coming up in my life.
