It was a very long time ago, in 2009, when I had just graduated from university in Shanghai.

I chose to have another education experience. Because at that time I didn’t want to look for a job.

On September 17th, I arrived at Birmingham airport.

I loved this city very much from that day, because the weather was much better than I (had) thought.

In my view, (I thought) British weather was very bad. It would be cold and there would be a lot of rain and no sunshine.

But in Birmingham, it was totally different. The weather was pretty nice.

They told me that Birmingham English was the hardest English accent to learn.

But I don’t think so. I think the Birmingham accent is not typical English pronunciation. It mixes pronunciations from a lot of other countries, especially European ones.

And my university was called BCU. I had many classmates. And I remember one guy who was from Thailand. He was very special because he was the only guy in our class. He was gay as well.

It’s a joke but it’s the truth.
