My second year in Melbourne This year is my second year in Melbourne, and I'll finish my Master's degree in this year. I don't know where I will go after I leave school. My initial plain was to stay in Australia and eventually get the Australian citizenship. But immigration is becoming harder and harder now. I don't know if I can make it. Many of my friends suggested me to go back to Shanghai, because Shanghai is a thriving city, and its economy is still growing very fast, which means there are more opportunities in Shanghai than in Melbourne. I partly agree with them. But I also believe that people in Shanghai dedicate themselves too much to their works. By contrast, Melbournians know how to enjoy their lives. Language barrier is still a problem for me to live in Melbourne. It sounds funny but I don't have many chances to speak English here, because there are so many Chinese people. Most of my classmates and all of my housemates are Chinese. I feel it very embracing to talk in English to Chinese people, so I'll speak Chinese at most of time. I hope I can make a difference this year.
