This week two kind ladies asked me respectively about the plan after finishing study in America. Both of them assumed that I should stay here.

I understand that their standpoints are from their kind hearts. I really appreciate it. I found that the life here is really impressing. I often think that American are very lucky. But frankly speaking, to stay here is another matter.

Then I thought American Dream – It is also Chinese dream. Now our generation is very lucky that we can realize American Dream in China.

Scores of years, Chinese people as well as the people around the world would like to have an American dream. One musical that I prefer – Miss Saigon even has a song for it.

Initially, people think that American dream could be achieved in America. Then they try their best to acquire green cards. A lot of Chinese successfully immigrate to the US. Then they found that it is hard to realize American dream in America.

Gradually people recognize that American dream could be achieved in their own country.

what’s that I smell in the air?
the American dream
sweet as a suite in Bel-air
the American dream
girls can buy tits by the pair
the American dream
bald people think they’ll grow hair
the American dream
call girls are lining time square
the American dream
bums there have money to spare
the American dream
cars that have bars take you there
the American dream
on stage each night: Fred Astaire
the American dream
shlitz down the drain!
pop the Champagne!
it’s time we all entertain
my American dream!
