Hey guys. I’m Shan Lin, also you guys can call me Celine. I transferred to Stony Brook from China last summer. This is my senior year, and my major is Journalism.
Usually I enjoy reading online news and fashion magazines, such as New York Times and Vogue. Also I’m a big fan of novels. Recently my favorite novelist is Richard Yates. He is the writer of Revolutionary Road, which is absolutely my favorite. Due to my language background, I do read plenty of Chinese books, some of which are really masterpieces. One of them is a novel called Fortress Besieged, written by a very talented writer Qian Zhongshu, and it is definitely a must-have for bookworms!
Last semester I learned a lot about English writing, my professors told me that I was good, but I still consider it a little bit hard for me compared with Chinese writing. Hopefully I could get more useful writing skills in this course from you guys! 🙂
