America

What charm does USA hold that has attracted so many of my friends (both Singaporean and Taiwanese), who flock to it every summer vacation? I have never been there before. I didn't go for my HPAIR conference in 2006, where I could have a taste of what Boston is like.

Frankly put, Taiwan offers me an outlet to escape from my Commencement Ceremony. I need a place that I am familiar with to prove right my decision to skip it. However, I am now increasingly curious about America. Maybe I should go there soon to experience the things that had captivated my friends so much.

First, from now on, I shall keep a lookout for the international conferences that will be held in America. Next, I need to submit my ethnographic data to earn my keep. Finally, off to the States I go. Whatever Wacky Jacky pledges to do, he will get it done.
