Do I have a chance to get into minor league?
I'm a college student from Taiwan. I want to become a professional baseball player and it is my dream to play in the major league. I have played baseball for years and I'm a member of my college baseball team. However, I'm 23 now. Will scouts think I'm too old for becomeing a minor league player? Do I have a chance to get into minor league? And if I can, where can I find tryout information of minor league? Thanks a lot!!

You could definitely get into the minors if you are good. There are minor league players in their 30's so 23 is definitely not too old. I guess the best place to find information would be to visit some minor league websites. Good luck.
2 :
Well what are you're numbers from Taiwan, then people can make an accurate assumption weather you can make it or not.
3 :
ya you do. the rockies have jason giambi in their AAA team right now and he's 38. you're not that old
4 :
Yes, you can make it but don't take to long to get in to the minors, you may get a little bit to old for any major league teams to take notice in you.
5 :
if you haven't been looked at by scouts yet you most likely do not have a chance.

It really depends on WHAT freedom you want to talk about. For example, for most high school there's restriction on hair style For example, students must choose their future faculty when they are in second year of high school For example, students must dress uniform to school that enough??

you should speak and talk to english speaking people as much as you can.
2 :
I suggest you read newspapers online and find someone to speak to. It is also very good practice to write the language you want to speak. The IELTS test is fairly rudimentary but you do need to have an idea not only of English from books but also general conversation.

"The legend of Urashima TarÅ (浦島太郎, 'Urashima TarÅ') is a Japanese legend about a fisherman who rescues a turtle and for this is rewarded with a visit to the Palace of the Dragon, or RyÅ«gÅ«-jÅ." "One fine day a young fisherman named Urashima TarÅ was fishing when he noticed a small turtle being tormented by some children. TarÅ saved it and let it go back to the sea. The day after a huge turtle approached him and told him that the small turtle he had saved was the daughter of the Emperor of the Sea, who wanted to see him to thank him. The turtle magically gave TarÅ gills and brought him to the bottom of the sea, to the Palace of the Dragon (RyÅ«gÅ«-jÅ). There he met the Emperor and the small turtle, who was now a lovely princess. TarÅ stayed there with her for a few days, then he was caught by the desire to go back to his village and see his aging mother, so he asked her permission to leave. The princess said she was sorry to see him go, but wished him well and gave him a mysterious box which she told him never to open, for whatever reason. TarÅ grabbed the box, jumped on the back of the same turtle that had brought him to the Palace, and soon was home. But everything had changed. His home was gone, his mother had vanished, the people he knew were nowhere to be seen. He asked if anybody knew a man called Urashima TarÅ. They answered that they had heard someone of that name had vanished at sea long ago. He discovered that 300 years had passed since the day he had left for the bottom of the sea. Struck by grief, he absent-mindedly opened the box the princess had given him. Out of it came a cloud of white smoke. He suddenly aged, his beard grew long and white, and his back bent. He was now a very old man. And from the sea came the sad, sweet voice of the princess: "I told you not to open that box. In it was your old age …" As always with folklore, there are many different versions of this extremely famous story. In one, for example, after he turned into an old man he took the body of a crane, in another he ate a magic pill that gave him the ability to breathe underwater. In another version, he is swept away by a storm before he can rescue the turtle." For the full story in English, see "The Story of Urashima Taro, the Fisher Lad" : http://www.rickwalton.com/folktale/japan03.htm
