Benny Ling, a lover of books, fan of philosophy, and journalism 120 student. Currently Ling is studying the language arts here at Skyline College, to help improve his language skills as he is not a native speaker.
“My main interest right now is language arts, I am not a native speaker and I want to express myself right in this language. I am from China; I came here when I was 12, so I have been here for about 11 years.” Ling added that there is not much difference between schooling in China and schooling in the U.S. “Not much…changes all the time over here, over there same class just a different teacher”
When asked if he could throw a dinner party and invite anyone living or dead ling had two very interesting choices. “Plato, Ernestine and any kind of famous write.” Replied Ling “I got nothing actually; I don’t know how to cook. Well I would cook them Chinese food… all my favorite dishes, it’s hard to say in English, a lot of meat but not a lot of vegetables.” Ling said.
Ling also made some wise choices on what to bring to a deserted island if trapped on one, many of use would have made choices like guy or girl or loved one, booze or in some cases a television. But Lings choices where far smarting including water, shelter, food, a flashlight and for some good old fashioned entertainment books.
So this is the man Benny Ling a guy that sits two rows over and four seats up from me who I just got to know a whole lot better and who you should get to know too.
