Hi, I'm Tiannan Zhan.

I think I might be the last one today to post the comment, sorry that I tried several times to enter this page without loginning in..

I'm a Chinese girl coming to America for the first time. It's a big and adventuous dicision to go to a country I've never been to for college. But this will definitely be the one of most wonderful time in my life. I love the free and active atmosphere in class. Though I haven't read much pieces in English before, I wish I can get into the discussion in seminar class smoothly and try to read more in Bryn Mawr life.

Here is a link of Chinese creation myth.

actually there's different versions of the origin of our world in Chinese sotries. But I believe that Pangu's effort to break down the primary chaos is some sort of metaphor that human beings are trying to put things in order and to understand a clearer world.
