Northwestern University @ Evanston, IL 西北大學

It was a very beautiful beginning of our journey in the states to have Northwestern University as our first stop. Since I'm a cold weather lover, I was absolutely in love with Evanston surrounded by the purely cold air, which you can simply feel and smell it.


As every university has its own representative color, NU's color is purple. They have purple Taddy bears, purple shirts and purple banners for every event. It's hard to ignore it while you're living aside all the purple things. Sometimes you may get tired of it, but during the spring time there's a tiny hyacinth garden which impressed me a lot. What an elegant design of nature!! Isn't it?


Northwestern University is located in the Northern Chicagoland. Only Law school and Medical school are in the city of Chicago. The rest departments are in Evanston, a beautiful small city sharing the border with Chicago on the north. The lake is more than beautiful when you try to find a word to explain it. However, Along side of Lake Michigan, people should live with both the good and bad sides of the lake. You can read a book, ride a bicycle, take a nap and picnic by the lake. Nothing can be more relaxing when you do those things with clean air, purely blue sky, as well as gentle breeze. The bad side is always the unpredictable weather along with the great lake, which Chicagoland is always notorious for.
