Then we noticed she did not want to move her right arm. No time to waste, we went to emergency room. After long waiting, x-ray and 1 minute of fixing, she could use her arm immediately. Thank God!

奖学金办公室发来邮件，提醒说一年一度的奖学金申请又要开始了。不过今年已经不再需要奖学金。我们的学习马上结束了。另一个不属于学校的奖学金项目也发来邮件，询问我们是否今年就毕业了，不用再更新奖学金。支持Emma的一个奖学金基金会甚至给她打电话，说以后回国以后如何联系，如何在有时间的时候帮助照顾一下云南的‘公司’。 ...
