About me

Hi everyone, my name is mingrui liu, and my nickname is xiaoming, which is a funny character always appears in the Chinese mathematic problems and always cannot solve even the simplest math problems. I have got the nickname because I usually have headache about math. I come from Chengdu China, a beautiful and relaxing city that is located in the west of China. In China, my hometown was called the city once you have been there and you won’t want to back. This is because Chengdu enables a harmony exist with the mix of tradition and modern, giving an opportunity of not only local citizens but even tourists to experience the spirit of life quality. Right now I live with two roommates in the dormitory: one of them is my high school classmate named qu who has great relationship with me and she also is the greatest companion when I am homesick. The other roommate is a local people with beautiful golden hair and blue eyes. She is a quiet nice person and gives me a lot of help. Lets talk about my family. I was born in a warm and sweet family and all my aunts and grandparents love me because I was the first girl in my family. Unfortunately, my parents divorced when I was 6 years old but they both built happy families after that. I am interested in biology maybe because my experience in my childhood. Although math is quite a tough subject and biology need every students understand math well, I chose biology to being my major.

Before I went to Ohio state university, I spent all my study life in my hometown. This city has countless memory of my childhood especially the company of pandas. I have a lucky and special childhood thanks to my grandfather who is one of the managers of The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. Thus I had a intimate contact with giant panda when I was young. In addition, I took my high school In the Chengdu shishi high school, which is one of the best high schools in SiChuan province.

My high school is the top three schools in Chengdu with colorful history. It stands on the site of the first local Chinese public school, founded in the Han Dynasty a famous ideologist named “wenweng” . It was originally named Wen Weng Shishi , which literally means “Stone Chamber”, referring to the original construction which was built of stones. In that high school, I meet Qu and built a shooting club with her, which finally had about 50 members. We organized activities to take photos during travelling and we sold the post cards made by ourselves to raise funding for the next activities.

There are couple of reasons to make me choose Ohio State University and it is hard to explain. Initially, OSU is one of the best universities that admit me. But that is definitely not the only reason. OSU has a large and beautiful environment: the fresh air, exuberant grass and even the wild animals provide an ideal place to study. Also, the educational technology in OSU is advanced in America and can be helpful for science major students like me. Additional, with large areas, opportunities and improvement space are abundant here too so that I can enlarge my vision and get more chances to meet diverse cultures.
