Hi hi hi! My name is Autumn and I'm a dreamy writer from Vietnam! Besides my huge (and obvious) passion for writing, I also like reading and cooking (I only cook Asian food though). I love cultures and traditions, so I'm really into majoring in Asian Studies, but I'm also having other options in mind like Media Studies or Econ (I know, who can resist the money-printing major?) And I don't know how to end this bio without sounding awkward so (I guess?) stay put for more posts from me!
Academic Program
Double Major Economics and Japanese
Favorite Thing Right Now
Asian Economy and Japanese Contemporary Literature
I just love my professor and my classmates! (I had to wake up at 7:15 everyday to go to drill, but it was totally worth it) We were so close that we had breakfast together every morning, and called ourselves the Brekky Club!
I've always loved writing scripts and seeing my writing being materialized into several scenes, so I thought this class would be perfect. Also, I'd love to take up some challenges in my second term at Dartmouth!
Japanese literature really is my passion, and in professor Dorsey's class, I got to read many Japanese masterpieces along the history of the Sakura country. Also, professor Dorsey is AMAZING - he is just like our friend!
I had the time of my life during the LSA+ in Tokyo. I learned interesting things about Japanese culture, made close Japanese friends, and improved my Japanese a lot!!

I like the maths - they explain the "common sense" I referred to a lot in ECON 1 in a much more logical way. The professor is great; her instructions are easy to understand, and she always eagers to help us understand the lectures better.
This course is super helpful if you're planning to go into finance or consulting. Taking this course has helped me so much in preparing for an interview for my junior summer internship!
It was around this time last year that I saw the fall's photo of a current student on the Admission's blog that urged me to apply for Dartmouth Early Decision, so I figured that I should write a similar autumn-inspired post to encourage prospies to come and enjoy Hanover's best season of the year!!
For all those huge instagramers (like me!!) you would find no better place to take a cute photo with this stunning nature!!
The yellow-and-red-leaves carpet in front of Robo (Robinson Hall, the first building you'll see when you arrive here for DOC trip) is awesomeeeee!! I've started going to the gym more these days because East Wheelock Street (the street to the gym) is super beautiful!For someone who has been living in a city for the past 18 years, never in my life have I been able to witness such beautiful fall nature scenes everyday. Every beautiful, small thing here, from the falling leaves to the trees changing colors -- they all remind me of how lucky and grateful I am to be here. And also, my name is Autumn, so where else can I be in autumn but my stunning Dartmouth? :)
