No, it’s near Shaanxi, it’s Shanxi.  There’s a beautiful town called Pingyao.  Shanxi’s main industry is coal mining.  Wu Zetian is from Shanxi Province.  She’s a only one female huangdi.

Because I want to join a big company.  I think big company have more excellent people.  I can learn a lot from them.  And it makes me make more progress.

As you say, I’m an art student.  I have more creative on sketch.  I can draw illustration on apps, it can attract more users eyes.  I’m detailed on work and I focus on work.

I’m a bit too shy, but I know each other, I will more open.  I know my speaking is just okay, but my reading and listening is great, and I will working on speaking.

I’m from ShanXi, not Shaanxi although it’s very near it.  There’s a beautiful town there called Pingyao, which gives you a glimpse of old China.  The main industry there is coal-mining and Wu Zetian, China’s only female empress was born there.  I want to join a big company because you generally have a big talent pool that I can learn a lot from.  I feel that it will progress my career much farther.

As you know, I’m an art student, so I’m simultaneously very creative and technical.  I make apps that are user-friendly and pleasing to the eye.  I’m very focused and detail-oriented.  I am a bit shy, but once I get to know someone I will definitely open up.  Although my English read and listening comprehension is great, my speaking is only okay–but I’m working on it.
