| Vicky Cheng 全家福 |
我們的新會員Vicky Cheng加入YZU Toastmasters Club 已有一段時日，但遇上她懷孕期，一直未能有時間做演講。前幾個月她生了寶寶，最近終於有機會再重回演講會來學習英語演講。她的第一篇Ice Breaker 的演講在1/23 例會做完囉！從她自我介紹的演講中，我們發現她在三十五歲以前不斷探索自己的興趣，雖然曾轉換了三個興趣，但每一次的轉換都為自己建立一個專業，過往建立的專業也對她下一個人生階段有所幫助，演講的最後，她用電影Forest Gump的名句做總結：Life was like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get. 這就如同Vicky的人生寫照。好學不倦的新手媽媽--Vicky Cheng ，歡迎你回來！！
Who Am I? (C1 Ice Breaker Speech by Vicky Cheng)
Hi, everyone, it’s been one and a
half years, and it’s finally my turn to introduce myself.
Have you ever written down your
dream when you were little?
Do you remember what your answer
was?
My answer was: I want to be a
teacher when I grow up.
Because I didn’t know any job I could
do but being a teacher.
Am I a teacher now? Am I doing my
“dream” job?
Let me tell you my story.
In 1997, my major was Culinary Management.
Am I a chef or a manager now? No. After being graduated from the vocational
high school. I asked myself: Do I like to be an employee in a restaurant or a hotel
in my whole life? No. I want to know what I can do in my future. I want to have
another way, another possibility.
In 1998, I chose my second major,
History, at Fju Catholic University. After four years of study, and one and a
half years as a part-time student in Academia Sinica中央研究院,
I was sure I didn’t want to be a history researcher, even though I really liked
to read history.
After several years of working
experience. I chose my third major, teaching Chinese as a Second Language in
2007. Then I got my Master’s degree, and got married at the same time.
After that, I became a housewife
and a home cook in America with my husband. I also started my small business
there; I sold lunch boxes for Taiwanese students in the college station, Texas.
What am I doing now?
I am a student counselor at NTNU.
My students call me “老師”.
In my past 35 years, I have built
three specialties. And I really become a
teacher.
In the end, I want to share this quote
from the movie, Forest Gump: “Life was like a box of chocolates, you never know
what you are going to get.”
