Dear my International Student fellows,
First of all, I wish you a wonderful 2009 with happiness, luck, and success.
My dear International friends, I have not met you in person, nor even talked to you via phones or internet; however, as I did experience your situation once, to some extent, I understand how you feel, what you think when considering one of the most important decisions in your life: being an International Student.
Leaving your home, you might experience homesickness when departing for a different environment, not only the Unted States, but also anywhere not your homeland. Don't worry! We International Studetns Ambassadors (ISA) know how you feel and we are here to do our best to help you adjusting to life at Pacific. We set up this blog in order to share with you our experience at Pacific, how to overcome problems International Students have to face, and how to succeed.
Being an International Student, you are embarking on a challeging but rewarding journey. We are here to help you and show you ways to your success. You have to work hard, you have to face challenge; but we believe that, and you must also believe that you can OVERCOME ALL DIFFICULTIES!
Being an International Student, you are a member of a prestigious group of students here in the United States. YES YOU ARE!
Being an International Student, you can view and explore the world in your unique way. In addition to cultural, academic, and music clubs, there are definitely many more interesting things you can discover during your time at Pacific in order to enrich your life experience. DISCOVER!

Being an International Student, you have great chances to realise your hidden abilities that you have never thought you could possess. Certainly, there will be difficultites at first, but as soon as you face them, and try hard to overcome, you will develop great perseverancce and self-confidence. Never forget that YOU CAN DO IT!
Although your home is far away from the United States, whether you come from Europe, Asia, Africa, North/Central/South America, or Australia, I am sure you will feel like home here at Pacific. Entering Pacific as an INTERNATIONAL student, I am certain that you will graduate from Pacific as a GLOBAL citizen.
