CHINA

“Wo Zuo Dao Le!”

It means “I did it!” in Chinese, and that was the first sentence I told my parents and friends when I got the acceptance letter from the Ambassador Program.

In fact, while traveling to foreign countries, I believe I am already the ambassador of my country – China. The way I talk and the perspectives I have on certain things do not only represent myself, but also my cultural background.

I really cherish this opportunity to be “Miss China”, because I want to introduce my country and its’ unique culture to more people all over the world.

As a Chinese, I am supposed to know everything about the country. However, on the one hand, when preparing for the presentations, I feel embarrassed that there are so many things that I do not know. On the other hand, the preparation process also let me understand my country better, and I am really proud of being a Chinese.

In addition, the position is a challenge for me, because many foreigners have visited China, and there are a lot of Chinese in the U.S.. Therefore, my job is to find topics that are traditional, classical and more importantly, my audience will be interested in hearing them.

I am looking forward to introducing my country to many people, and I am confident that I will be an excellent “Miss China”!
