The sowing season is approaching; therefore, there isn't too many extra activity held recently.
By this opportunity, I want to tell you my life, my story.
Dad is a farmer, Um... maybe I should describe he as a little famous farmer.
Why he got famous is not because he is an expert in this field or anything about specialty; it's just due to his passion and determination to be a pioneer in this field.
I seldom tell my friends or teachers who my dad is whether they have heard about him or not.
It doesn't mean that I'm ashamed for him, on the contrary, I'm very very very respect on him.
Not only on his profession but as a father of mine.
Dad & My brother (about 12 years ago.)
Some media had reported his story, however, there is another story exist; the story of his daughter.
No one knows, maybe there is no one desire to know, but I still want to share it on my blog.
Everyone has their own story, most of them are left in the corner.
The following is one of it.
=====================================================
I was born in Taipei, capital of Taiwan.
Mom is from Yilan, where I live now.
Dad is from Hsinchu.
While I was 5-year-old, my family moved to okayama, Japan, due to my dad's master's degree.
My younger brother was born in okayama in this period we stayed there.
Me and my younger brother (12 years ago.)
As a consequence, I spent my kindergarten life in Japan.
Time I spent in okayama totally changed my view of the world.
There are many house owners don't allow to rent their house to foreigners.
Consequently, foreigners easily live together in the same community.
For example, the community we lived just like a small united nations.
Picture shows the nationality of the members of our community.
However,I can hardly remember all of them, and just wrote down some that I still remember.
Me & my Korean neighbor
It's been a long long long time that I haven't met her.
I hope she will read this blog in the future.
I remembered that we were always quarrel with each other, but we still played together after that.
I think the reason why I'm always curious about this world is resulting from these two years period I lived in Japan.
As the former mentioned, I spent most of my kindergarten life in Japan in Okyama.
The first half year I didn't said any word at school because I didn't know anything about Japanese.
Fortunately, children can learn anything faster than adult, I could speak in Japanese with my classmates in half year I arrived in Japan.
The following are some photo taken in Okayama.

=====================================================
After 2 years life in Japan, we came back to Taiwan because my dad finished his study.
In fact, professor in my dad's school asked him to stay and study Ph.D.
Nevertheless, he thought studying is not his interest, with a little hesitation, he could't make the choice directly, stay in Japan or go back to Taiwan.
By the way, I think my mom is an amazing woman, she encouraged Dad to chase what he want, no matter what it was.
Farming is what my dad really want to do , however, farmer is not a " ideal job'' in Taiwanese's mind.
Mom said,'' You just do what you want to do, if you have a dream, just pursue it, or you'll regret in the future. Family is not a obstacle on the way chasing your dream, you can't take it as a excuse to escape your rear of the possibility to fail."
=====================continuing========================
I'll share the story after coming back to Taiwan in next part!
