Night College Author Spends Five Years Getting Diploma in Spare Time

AT the age of 32, I went back to school. I enrolled as a student in the Department of History at a night college attached to Beijing Normal University. My son was only two years old at the time. At first I went to night classes just to earn a college diploma. I already had 15 years' work experience, including four years of being a magazine editor. But if I wanted to keep my job as editor, I had to obtain a diploma. When I first sat down in the terraced, 300-seat classroom and touched my new textbooks, I was full of a craving for knowledge. I knew that my classmates

I want to share a practical assignment that I often use with clients, I＇ve just returned from a first meeting with a client who will spend the nextfew months completing a communication-coaching program that I offer. While specific objectives differ from person to person, the general purpose of the program is to help （usually female） Chinese professionals improve their ability to communicate, at a regional or global level, with confidence and influence.     

Old Professor''''s 85 Roses

"I was mesmerized by you, a gentleman of an ancient Oriental country. I love you deeply, I shall fly over the hills and seas to be by your side and I shall live together with you all my life…" This is not a film subtitle but an excerpt from a letter a Dutch woman wrote to a Chinese man.     

Spirit Coinciding with Nature

I have given a name to the studio where I make my soft sculptures: "Spirit Existing." It means that my life exists together with my spirit; that spirit is inseparable from body. I believe the original nature of life is the most beautiful thing in the world. On September 6th, 1997, I handed in my resignation to the tax bureau where I worked. Leaving my family and my son at home, I came to Beijing alone to create a new life for myself. As a woman making such a choice at the age of 35, I

Oear Women of China,
I have been in Beijing for four months and I have already read through all the books I brought with me. As a literature addict, I would like to buy more books, but as a climate change enthusiast, I would like to purchase only secondhand books, not new ones.     

Remembering Tibet

I close my eyes. The children with whom I stayed with in Lhasa appear before me. In the pink world they smile. It is a strange feeling. I have been to Tibet twice. I remember how the Lhasa children would walk on the streets in Lhasa: when they spotted a man and a woman holding hands, they would sing, "You Are Late", a popular song of that time. "I had her in my heart a long time ago./Oh! She arrived before you." When the young couple turned around, the children would run away. Then they searched for another couple. What I most remember about Tibet is

Threads of Youth Needlework Helps Woman Recall the Past

MAYBE I should be grateful to my mother. When I was very young, she taught me how to knit socks. Using a kind of white nylon thread and a needle made from a kind of hairpin, a durable sock could be made. Before long I had mastered the skill, then knit a pair of socks for each of my family members. However, my mother seemed to be a collector of socks and didn't allow me to stop knitting them until I came to hate this task. Luckily, my mother changed her interest. One day while she was

新年新愿望(英文)

Yangchun Baixuepainter杨春白雪 小画家"I would have a pair of wings with which I would fly to all places of happiness. Even if I could not get the wings, I would have a greater imagination.In the crispy air in the early morning, I will hear the singing of nature. When it snows, I will see flowers of spring in full bloom. In the spring wind, I will fly like a bird. I believe deeply that apes would possibly still roam wild if they did not have an imagination.In the new year, the wings of my dreams will be even stronger."     

To Keep the Tears to Myself

In the six years that I have lived in Beijing as a migrant worker, I have experienced the ups and downs of reality. I am no longer the girl of six years ago who left home for the big city. As far as women migrant workers are concerned, I dare say that I could be considered a success story, because I have learned…     

读者来信

Dear Women of China, I saw a post on your Weibo account, in which you reported that foreigners who intend to work as teachers in China may face a higher threshold, as employers nationwide will require teachers to have previous teaching experience. I worked as a trainer and head teacher. I wouldn＇t mind if new teachers did not have experience as long they were willing to learn, and as long as they loved the trade. I would never consider the race or place of origin, but only the teaching quality and proper language skills, of a potential teacher.

Pasta, Shanxi Style Hand-pulled Noodles Loved by Tourists and Residents Alike

I had my most delicious meal with noodles in a small village along the Yellow River. It was on a March day a decade ago, when I had just moved to Shanxi Province. I was out in the field as a reporter, and was exhausted and starving after traveling more than 50 kilometers on foot and by bus. A middle-aged man, whom I did not know, was standing in front of his dugout cave, the traditional dwelling of the Shanxi people." He called to me and invited me to have a meal in his home. Upon entering the cave, I was asked to sit on a kang, a brick bed, while the man's wife busied herself with cooking my meal. In no time a huge bowl of youpomian, noodles with Chinese prickly ash oil, was on the table in front of me. My nostrils were immediately filled with the strong and delicious smell of chili and prickly ash.     

Learning to Understand Love

I'M still young, but I've experienced a lot emotionally; I've been married twice and had extramarital affairs. Thinking back on the past, I was really a fool back then, continually mired in confusion. I had my first love affair about 10 years ago when I was a university student, and didn't know much about life.     

WHEN WlLL I GET A COMPUTER?

Ihaven't bought a computer yet, but I have been dreaming about it for a long time. In the 1980s, when my friends and neighbors returned from abroad and brought back computers, I didn't admire them because I didn't think they would be very useful. Of course I couldn't afford it, either.
