When I was seventeen years old, long before emails and texts existed in 1980, I had a pen pal in Japan. We corresponded by snail mail for several years. She would send me cassette tapes of her favorite songs, and I vividly remember two of them: \u201cDaitokai\u201d by Crystal King and \u201cGandhara\u201d by Godiego. At that time, my musical influences mostly came from my sisters, who listened to Cantonese pop, but I also found myself drawn to the surge of Japanese-influenced music taking over the radio waves in Hong Kong. Despite the historical animosity between China and Japan\u2014stemming from Japan\u2019s invasion of China during World War II\u2014this new generation of Chinese-Americans, like myself, was not bound by the past. We were eager to embrace a diverse range of cultural influences. Even though we lived in Los Angeles, Chinatown was a haven for imported albums from Hong Kong, and it was there that I became hooked on Japanese music.<\/p>\n
After high school, I was accepted to USC, UCLA, and CSULA (California State University, Los Angeles). I chose CSULA, not for its prestige, but simply because it was the closest to home, and I didn\u2019t want to endure long commutes. Since I was already passionate about Japanese music, I decided to take Japanese language courses. I breezed through them effortlessly, and by my second year, Professor Yasuhara encouraged me to apply for the Waseda International Exchange Program. So, at twenty years old, I faced a monumental decision: to study abroad in Japan\u2014a decision that would change my life forever.<\/p>\n
In August 1984, I said goodbye to my family and boarded a flight to Tokyo, unaware of the profound impact this journey would have on me. My parents, especially my mother, who had escaped the Japanese military\u2019s bombing of her village in China, were strongly opposed to my decision. For them, it felt like a betrayal to our heritage. But for me, it was an opportunity to explore, to grow, and to understand the very culture that had fascinated me for so long.<\/p>\n
My life has always been guided by serendipity. When opportunity knocks, I\u2019ve learned to take it. That\u2019s exactly what I did when I arrived at Waseda University. My homestay parents, Hide and Yasuo Sugiyama, already had three boys but welcomed me into their family with open arms. I didn\u2019t know it at the time, but Waseda was one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in Japan. I was just a kid from a working-class family in Los Angeles, unfamiliar with the world beyond my own neighborhood. Yet, Waseda opened a new world to me\u2014one that would shape my future in ways I never expected.<\/p>\n
Up until that point, I had coasted through high school and college without anyone ever telling me I had the potential to achieve something great. My parents had emigrated from Hong Kong to give their children a better life, but they were too preoccupied with surviving in a new country to focus on my grades or praise my achievements. Though I was an \u201cA\u201d student, I never heard words of encouragement from them. But at Waseda, something changed.<\/p>\n
When I told people I attended Waseda University, their reactions were nothing short of inspiring. Strangers, impressed by the name, would often compliment me. They saw something in me that I hadn\u2019t recognized in myself\u2014a smart, capable individual. Waseda gave me more than just an education; it gave me confidence, and that confidence, along with the kindness of my host parents, became the foundation for my future. They believed in me more than I believed in myself. Their kindness and encouragement became a driving force in my life.<\/p>\n
By the end of my year at Waseda, my homestay parents offered to let me stay with them permanently. Deep down, I longed to remain in Japan, but my obligation to complete my college education in the United States was too great. I couldn\u2019t abandon my parents’ dreams for me. So, I returned to California, graduated with a degree in Japanese, and began my career. Unfortunately, my Japanese fluency has since faded, but my connection to the culture remains strong.<\/p>\n
I took a job at JTB (Japan Travel Bureau), but it didn\u2019t fulfill me, and I eventually moved on to teaching. In a serendipitous turn, I applied to be a substitute teacher and found myself entering a new phase of life. Through California\u2019s Intern Program, I became an elementary school teacher, eventually earning a master\u2019s degree in educational administration and becoming an elementary school principal in 2006. As a principal, I actively encouraged college matriculation. Every Wednesday, I would wear my \u201cWaseda\u201d shirt to school to promote the goal of higher education to my students.<\/p>\n
Since retiring on January 6, 2025, after 36 years in education, I look back on my journey with gratitude. The experiences I gained at Waseda not only provided me with academic knowledge but also a group of lifelong friends. My cohort from the 1984-1985 exchange program remains one of the most incredible and kind-hearted groups of people I have ever known. In October 2024, we gathered in Tokyo for our 40th reunion, reconnecting with old friends and reflecting on how much we had all grown over the years.<\/p>\n
Life is unpredictable. If I had attended USC or UCLA instead of CSULA, I would have missed out on the serendipitous opportunity to study at Waseda. I would have missed out on the ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/us-office\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Wing_01.jpg\")
experiences that shaped who I am today. Four things, in particular, have blessed my life: 1) being born into a family with five wonderful siblings; 2) my parents\u2019 sacrifice and courage in immigrating to the United States; 3) the Waseda experience, which enriched my life in countless ways; and 4) being married to my husband, Joe Salvemini, for 21 wonderful years.<\/p>\n
I hope I\u2019ve made both of my parents and my homestay parents proud, and I will continue to pass on the lessons of confidence, kindness, and strength to everyone I meet. Life is a journey, and sometimes the best experiences come when you least expect them. Be open to serendipity\u2014it\u2019s okay to embrace the unknown.<\/p>\n
