A
pair of shoes Before I came to the U.S., I never thought
that I would make many friends who came from many different countries. It was
interesting to me, because I started to realize how huge this world was and how
many different cultures we had. (Photo by Wanderer)

A
French roommate Living in the U.S., I find some different
things from Taiwan. One of them is that there are so many international
students in the school. In Taiwan, there are only few international students in
the campus. However, for example, I have 7 roommates, they came from 5
countries. Actually, culture shocks sometimes are interesting. (Photo by

Vocabulary
list To memories new vocabulary is a difficult
job, and to keep vocabulary is another. Of course, to know how to use the new
vocabulary is also a hard job. I always fight to my vocabulary list. (Photo

The
red trees I like
the trees with this color, red, and the other thing interesting to me is that I
have never known which color they would become until fall. That made me think
that we never know the ending if it hasn’t ended yet. (Photo by Wanderer)

Sometimes,
living in a different country with a new life style is painful, but it is
interesting to me. I have learned a lot and finished many things for this 11
months. I have also opened many windows in this year. If you can choose, do you
like to open your windows to find this world?
Hey, where do you live? Your appartment seems better than Westmar from the photos you took.
ReplyDeleteHihi Changjian Li, thanks for your comment. I live in the Hemphill Ave.NW. I think wherever you live, the most important is your roommates. ^^
DeleteWow, you life here seems still quite interesting. Can you cook some French food now?
ReplyDeleteHaha.. actually, at first, I also tried to learn some French food, but I found they cooked pasta a lot and some microwave food. So, I didn't learn at all. However, they told me they never cooked any microwave food in the French, so this is the U.S.
DeleteYour shoes look nice. Why don't you cook your lunch by yourself?
ReplyDeleteYour roommate looks very handsome. Your bedroom is warm and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh.. sometimes I cook my lunch but not every time. Sometimes I am too tired so I eat outside. Haha...
DeleteHi, Wanderer.
ReplyDeleteYour post makes me happy.
I think we can't live without cellphone today.
By the way, what is the most memorable culture shock for you??
Hihi .. Now Hurray, I totally agree what you said about cellphone. Cellphones have become a standard item in life. And I feel the most memorable culture shock for me is people in the U.S. pay more patient to each other. In my country, most people appear impatient or angry to make other help them or finish their jobs. However, this doesn't work in the U.S. People usually say " be a nice man". We need more patient and smile in the U.S.
DeleteHi! Wonderer, I noticed a problem that I can't see your post in my Reading List....Anyway, I am very happy to see your post now, it's very creative for you to took the photo with two different feet in two different shoes! haha...seems you had a busy study life in Atlanta, especially with the vocabulary list! It must be very interesting to live with people from 5 different countries, is there any funny stories happened in you apartment that you are willing to share with us?
ReplyDeleteLike some TV show which talk about some funny stories in an apartment, we have happened many interesting stories and I could tell you all day. Haha...
