On the way to Bon Air, I imaged that it would look like a \u201creal prison\u201d that I saw in the TV serial:\u00a0 packed with low houses and barely has no lawn for outdoor activities. However it looked exactly like a normal school if we ignore those scarfing tall fence which kept reminding me that the residents here are so different from the students in boarding school\u2014 they don\u2019t have freedom.\u00a0 Anyway, such anxiety was alleviated a lot when I saw the employees there are so friendly.\u00a0 They are so patient to solve our problems with the forms. There is an episode which I think is really impressive. When we was filling the form in the computer, we spent a while finding China in the list of country . The madam told me that I was the first Chinese who came to Bon Air. Her words gave me a sense of pride and expectation. On the way back, the anxiety totally disappeared, all I thought is what kind of memorable experience I will have and how I and my partner will influence each other\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n
