同学们好！
我的名字是百浩明！我是十九岁，而且现在我是新加坡的南洋理工大学的留学生。大学以前，我去BASIS凤凰城。在屠老师课，我开始学中文。因为屠老师的建议，十二年级期间，我申领美国政府的NSLI-Y奖学金。我收到这个奖学金，然后我去了台湾的清华大学学中文。回国以后，我知道了我需要再次去出国。所以这个学期，我从我的大学（乔治·华盛顿大学）来新加坡。我希望提高我的中文和多学中国文化，而且我希望你跟我一起探索新加坡！

Hello students!
My name is Zane Balian! I am nineteen years old, and, currently, I am an international student at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Before college, I went to BASIS Phoenix. In Teacher Tu’s class, I started to learn Chinese. Because of Teacher Tu’s suggestion, I applied for the NSLI-Y scholarship from the U.S. government during my senior year. I received this scholarship and then I went to Tsinghua University in Taiwan to study Chinese. After returning home, I knew I needed to go abroad again. So, this semester, I am coming to Singapore from my university (The George Washington University). I hope to improve my Chinese and learn more about Chinese culture, and I hope you will explore Singapore with me!
