An English topic: Describe your last week at home before you came to this city

Describe your last week at home before you came to this city / country. Then describe what you have done and been doing since you arrived here.

I have lived in Taiwan for one month and half. (I came to Taiwan one and half month ago) The last week at home before I came here was a special period. My parents were very happy when they knew I got the DYU scholarship. We had a small party together and I drank with my close friends also. However, there had been some worries of me because I didn’t know when I would come back home.

When I came to Taiwan, there were many things to do. The first thing was expanding my Alien Resident Certificate (ARC) for the next year. The second thing was signing up my courses. Then I went shopping for my life in dormitory. This semester my scholarship is increased so I could buy more than before. I have planned a schedule for me to do exercise, because I hope I could be stronger and fatter. I have been doing my exercise for one month and I feel everything is better now.

I have started my study since early September. I must work hard for my own knowledge. I have been studying English and Digital Communications for my courses this semester. And I have been working in my Lab to do my research. Besides, I have been learning Chinese for one month also.
