Biography

2010年 文藻外語學院-文藻盃 英語即席演講比賽

Every one eager to be successful is possessed with a unique story, and the following part goes mine. I

am Yu-Peng Yu from Hsinchu City, the satellite town located between Taipei and Taichung with a well-known

science park in it. One thing makes me different from others is not the city I live in but my family. My parents

educate my little sister and I with the freedom that we should not achieve a hundred-percent success on

academic but leave twenty percent for our interests and whatever that makes us fun in childhood. Thus, I am so

grateful my parents do not want me become a bookworm that strive for good grades by staring at those

textbooks without a blink. I got more times hanging out with my friends, taking exercises, playing hoops and

enjoying movies. Thanks for their education with freedom, I got more time dealing with networking, health,

and explore what our hobbies are, which I think one of the most important things in childhood, or even in

adulthood in the future.

For my education, I would like to skip into the phase I attended college because my years in college are

the most colorful and brilliant in my whole student careers. I would say there are many “first time” during these

four years, including presentation, conducting group work, acting and debating in the class. Furthermore,

during the career in college, I was the deputy of activity planning in the department of college, member of

activity planning in cross-departmental welcome camp for freshmen, captain of departmental volleyball team,

and teaching assistant in English classes for those who are not English-majored students. Not only has the

experience in formal association but also the one in dynamic association enriched my college career to gain my

experience in dealing with administration stuff and help my networking to be more plentiful. After the

graduation from the college, I chose International Human Resource Department in National Taiwan Normal

University because all the classes were proceeded in English. I thought I could still discipline English and

absorb knowledge about Business Administration and Human Resource. On the second semester of graduate

school, I was privileged to have an internship in a Nike sneaker manufactory owned by Pou Chen Group. I got a

project to improve interior lecturer’s teaching quality and teaching material. Besides, in my career of graduate

school, there are many seminars I’ve attended as a staff, for example, assisting Civil Service Protection &

Training Commission to hold the Seminar of Human Resource Development for Civil Service in 2011, and

being a lecturer for culture issue on International Vision Workshop from National Academy of Civil Service.

The experience I have been through as a staff in those seminars mentioned above makes me realize a proverb

states, “one minute of performance on stage, ten years of hard work off stage.” With every division and task

that staff takes charge of beforehand, the only purpose is to present the seminar successfully and perfectly.

Before the graduation of graduate school, I made up my mind to attend the exchange program in our

school to Radford University in Virginia, United States to be an exchange student since studying and traveling

abroad in U.S. are one of my dreams, and it really came true! I still remember the night I got the journey started.

Arriving at the airport, grabbing my luggage, and geared up my backpack with some bags on my hands, I saw

more ten of my friends have already arrived at the lobby of airport. I would say that was the most surprised

moment in my life, ever! Because I was told that they were all busy individually that couldn’t make it to see me

until next year. Anyway, they got me though. To say goodbye with your family and friends and travel alone

take some courage, really. The loneliness soon went over my whole body as soon as I stepped into customs. I

knew that passing through this entrance means the lone journey has already begun, which also means I got one

more step closer to my dream. When I arrived in Virginia, I would say it was a typical countryside in the U.S.

There were rare Asian people around Virginia but Americans from West Virginia, Fairfax, or. What is more

interesting, some of students never leave Virginia or never take a train to go somewhere else. Since I was in a

place that Asian people were minority, I had to force myself to speak English all the time and all the places.

That was the major purpose that I was here, to sharpen speaking and listening in English. During these nearly

six months, I quite learned what the differences were between American students and Taiwanese students. First,

Taiwanese students merely ask questions on classes or interact with professors and lecturers, while students in

the U.S. do the other way around, they ask questions and answer what professors and lecturers ask even in the

early-morning classes. Second, they tend to crack jokes on others, not malicious ones. You could also crack

kind ones on them, they will smile on it. Third, working out seems to be one of their essential daily routines.

Those customs quite differ from we have in Taiwan.

After coming back from the U.S., I was about to go into army. However, I did not choose to join the real

military service as my obligation, I chose Substitute Military Services (SMS) instead. It is commonly thought

that SMS is much easier than the ordinary military service; however, they do not know there is an unit on SMS

called the Carde Training Company (幹訓隊). According to my commissioner who is a professional soldier, he

said that the Carde Training Company on SMS was tougher than the one on military service, not physically but

mentally. That’s because we had so many rules to follow during the training session, including not making any

noise on dinning, being careful on learning and drilling the Carde-relevant skills. If you fail to follow, there are

possibilities that you could take late day-offs. After being trained on the Carde Training Company for two

months, I was chosen to be the carde in the Counseling Center in Cheng Kung Camp for the rest of my military

service career. There were always challenges there in the Counseling Center since every man serving the SMS

was from the freedom world outside. To be “physically prisoned”, it always a difficulty for them since couple

days ago they were whole free man. Most of draftees had problems such as unable to cope with being scolded

from those cardes in their units, or failing to get adjusted in team-building life, or either some physical or

mental traumas. Our main task as a member in the Counseling Center is to assure every draftee’s safe from

hurting themselves or doing something wrong. Basically, in the daytime we had professional counseling

psychologists or social workers from Teacher Chang Foundation to comfort the draftees who needed help and

psychological consultation. If draftees occurred to be emotionally unstable at night when there were no

counseling psychologists or social workers on the camp, we needed to step on the frontline to comfort them and

understand the reason why causing this. I met couple cases during these nine months in the Counseling Center,

and fortunately got their calmed and did not do something that hurt themselves or others. It was the time that I

began to have conversations with people I did not know but needed immediate and sincere comfort or just

needed somebody to talk in order to let things out. That was quite an experience I would not have had if I did

not serve my obligated military service as a SMS carde in Counseling Center in Cheng Kung Camp.
